Episode 19. Chaz has an epiphany and assembles the Regarding...Panel one more time to clear the air and make things right with the lead singer of the third iteration of Van Halen, Mr. Gary Cherone. Join Scotzo, Wolfie, Kevin Brown, and Josh Michael as they hear Chaz' case and weigh in with their own observations, opinions, and critique.

Episode 8. Fire In The Hole featuring. Eric Senich of the Booked on Rock Podcast and the Van Halen News Desk. Join your intrepid co-hosts Scotzo, Chaz, and Wolfie, as they get Eric's unique perspective and appreciation for everything Ed did.

Once featuring Dave Criblez from the Dave And Dave Unchained Van Halen Podcast. Join Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they get Dave's inside take on what was going on with Van Halen at the time through Dave's interviews with the band, his time on press junkets with Warner Brothers, and the insights gleaned from being in a room full of A&R people and execs listening to Van Halen's most challenging work. Dave's interviews with Ed, Gary, and even Diamond Dave make for some healthy digressions, those of the type you've come to count on in a two hour plus Regarding episode…  And we listen to the studio version of what has come to be known as the best song on Van Halen III Redux, Once, and work hard to convince Scotzo not to revisit his treatment of Once for the redux. Been there, reduxed that well! Move along!! We seriously give Once a fair shake considering the strong bias against this song by two-thirds of the hosting staff coming in to this episode.

Matthew is also a fan and his appreciation of Van Halen shows he's a fan of all iterations of the band, and someone who can appreciate an artists more challenging works. We talk at length about the article and interview he wrote and published at the time, which you can read here. We also get some insider stories of being at the record label for the "preview parties", and how you tell a label exec that something "isn't quite" what you'd expected to hear from Van Halen? So we listen to the studio version of Dirty Water Dog, then Scotzo has us endure the live version to make a Monrovian point...you can see that video here. Ultimately, Matthew's wide-ranging musical background with UltimateClassicRock.com lead us on some pretty cool digressions. And we also get a taste of some of Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe's live shows in addition to his "never-heard-this-before" impression of the track, and the Van Halen III Redux version. Remember, Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo. Listen to their ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Redux version of VHIII⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem. Season 3 of the Regarding...Series - Welcome to the ultimate rediscovery of Van Halen's most controversial album.  At the outset, we represent a good spectrum of views: Wolfie is 100% no opinion on the album; Scott leans more positive but is in the middle and has some dislikes; and Chaz is … appreciative as a student of Edward Van Halen, and empathetic to his artistic cause, but not a big fan of the final output overall.

Episode 5. From Afar featuring Gary Cherone Superfan Alyssa, creator and curator of the Extreme Fan Page ExtremeTakeUsAlive on Twitter. Join Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they take Alyssa along on their journey through this next track off Van Halen III. Alyssa's passion for Gary's artistry, and her Extreme knowledge and appreciation of Van Halen take the guys to a place no one expected Chaz to end up. Is that a good thing or bad? We get a lot of inside scoop on Gary's side projects, like his Who cover band, and his work with his brother, and what it's like to be in the same room with him and his energy. Alyssa's adoration of Gary is endearing, and it soften's some of the sharper edges in what's always a "trash Gary" party! (Apologies to no one.) And this is the stage in the show's evolution where we think people may be listening, so we invoke our right to make statements and issue our new call "C'mon Wolfie!" and we're not talkin' our Wolfie. As always, the most important constituent - what did Wolfie think of the track and the Van Halen III Redux version? Remember, Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D.

Episode 4. One I Want featuring CJ Chilvers, author of The Van Halen Encyclopedia I, II and coming soon...III! Saddle up with Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they take CJ along on their journey through this next track off Van Halen III. CJ's knowledge and insider status are beyond most mere mortal Van Halen fans. Our hosts go deep with CJ, uncovering factoids and tid-bits that will have you shaking your damn head. What was the chatter on the Van Halen list serve at the time VHIII was coming into being? What happened to the music video for One I Want? What happened between Eddie Van Halen and Geddy Lee, does anyone really know? We get to the bottom of what was going on in the Van Halen camp at the time and dig into what was described as "just a bunch of verses” and a "convoluted" song, their words, not ours. Most importantly - what did Wolfie think of the track and did the Van Halen III Redux version change any hearts and minds on One I Want? Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo.

Episode 3. Without You featuring Corey Morrissette and Mark Camire from ⁠⁠⁠And The Podcast Will Rock⁠⁠⁠. Join Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they take Mark & Corey through the paces with the first divisive track off Van Halen III, the first single from the album, Without You. Most commonly known as the "most Van Halen" track on the album in that it was recorded by Eddie as a demo when they first hooked up with Gary, and we know for historical fact that all of the members of the band contributed to the final recorded work. Does it live up to the Can Halen legacy? Are there parts of this song that could be considered "all-time great" or "classic" Van Halen? Only your ears will tell. And did Scott and Kev do a job making this song more of a "banger", we find out as our co-hosts take the first spin through the Van Halen III Redux version after listening to the original. Did they make a new nugget for Van Halen fans to slap some sauce on, or did we just toss another order of boneless wings in the trash? You be the judge - as it should be. Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo.

Episode 2. Neworld: from the official show notes of show creative Scott D. Monroe...is essentially our "intro" episode with just the three hosts, heavy on historical context, each hosts' memories of the VH3 album and the tour; and overall opening thoughts on the album/era, and whether each host is open to changing their mind by the end of the podcast... Who the fuck knows if that's going to happen. With clowns to the left, and jokers to the right, and diversions and digressions galore, How Many Say Why? Listeners of ⁠⁠And The Podcast Will Rock⁠⁠ will come to hear this as a continuation of a discussion started on that podcast's live show recap of Van Halen III, which doubled as ⁠⁠Episode 1. of RVH3⁠⁠. In fact, it established an opinion baseline (not bass line Wolfie!) for Scotzo and Chaz to match or amend over time with this deeper-dive extension of what's begun on ATPWR. We're listening even deeper to this record so that you don't have to. On this, the "bastard's maiden voyage" away from the CMPU mothership and the ATPWR broadcast stream, we revisit prior Regarding...Series themes: Redux. ⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠, ⁠Tom Petty Project⁠, and ⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown graces us with a ⁠Redux version of VHIII ⁠that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem.

Season 3. of the Regarding...Series goes where no Fonzarelli has gone before, jumping the pod and crossing streams into the depths of the CMPU with Mark Camire and the genuine article himself, the real Corey Morrissette. Join us as Scotzo and Chaz help the boys at And The Podcast Will Rock put Van Halen III to the final discussion on their venerated podcast. (Wolfie is nothing if not integrus, staying home to maintain his VHIII virginity.) The backstory - as Corey and Mark wind down their listen through the 128-song Van Halen catalog, Van Halen III was a hold-out album, with the final cut, Josephina, being spun off the random spinning wheel of tracks with just 5 tracks left to spin. Their show wrap-up and ranking of the overall album is the Regarding...VHIII jumping-off point, with this historic episode establishing the baseline for where Chaz and Scotzo came into the season, fresh off a track-by-track listen with the ATPWR crew and their live audience. A few twists and turns reveal one of the wildest scoring and ranking cluster-of-phuchs, the likes of which you've only ever heard in the utterances of idiots and loons obsessed with a record that was released 26 years ago. "How many say why?", as Mr. Paltrowitz asked. We endeavor to answer that from here... This is where the season starts, before we fall back off our jet skis and get below the waves into our deep-dive, track-by-track exploration of our very own Van Halen III Redux, masterminded by Scotzo and engineered by Kevin Brown. We'll listen to that, along with the original album cut, over the next season, with another panel discussion at the end. Where will Wolfie come out on all this? Will Scotzo and Chaz change their minds from what you hear tonight? Only time, and our listening to Van Halen III so you, fair listener, don't have to, will tell. Season three, Regarding...Van Halen III, is going to be a twister in your ear and rubber hose up the nose of preconceived notions...and bass lines, Wolfie...

Bu bum, bu bum, bu bum, bu bum...do you smell that? It's the madness we refer to as Regarding...The Season Wrap: our round table discussion of Roger Waters' Dark Side of the Moon Redux...a cavalcade of podcasting stars join Chaz and Wolfie on this truly final listen to one of the most questionable reduxings of all time, which should leave you, intrepid listener, feeling freshly reduxed and ready for a shower. Join the conversation with Alan "The Schatz" Schatzberg from RushRash, along with the Sexiest Man in Podcasting, Scott Haskin of The HaskinCast, and that feisty British-Canadian everyone loves to call Lars, Kevin Brown, of the The Ultimate Catalog Clash, along with the newest member of the Regarding...Series of Podcasts Team, Scott Monroe as we slum through a group listen that had all of us groping for the volume knob and kill switch...We can't wait to begin season three of the Regarding...Series: Regarding Van Halen III. And it becomes pretty obvious at that... Pointed questions persist, starting with Why Roger, Why? But from there, many more questions on motives, use of narcotics, band members, instruments, and using the 50th anniversary of the release of The Dark Side of the Moon to maintain relevance...it's a "no-holes" barred aural pillage that will still leave you asking...for fucks sake...Why Roger, why? And what the hell's wrong with this lot for all of the time they've spent listening to this...work of artistic decrement? Tear down the wall and join Chaz, Wolfie, and the rest of our all-star panel take one final rip off this bong-hit of a "season that was" on the Regarding...Series, and party like it's 1984 with one final example, served up with respect and for reflection of Mr. Waters, of what we consider to be redux done right. Whoo ohhhh!!

The madness comes in for a landing with this, the tenth episode of Regarding Roger. Masters of Digression Chaz and Wolfie go all out in this drain-bamaged diversionary listen-through of the epic classic rock radio track Eclipse, the last track on Dark Side of the Moon. Redux follows suit, and thus we conclude the heavy lifting of season two, listening to Dark Side of The Moon Redux for the listener, so the listener doesn't have to. Join our hosts as they meander through Spotify rankings of Pink Floyd versus so many other artists we forget how many are covered. Chaz raves on and on about Live From Daryl's House, the internet show of Daryl Hall, and convinces Wolfie to get hooked in with Daryl and his friends like Smokey Robinson, Sammy Hagar, Allen Stone, Fitz and the Tantrums, Tommy Shaw, Rick Nielson, Kenny Loggins, CeeLo Greene, Darius Rucker, Train, Rob Thomas, Joe Walsh, Howard Jones, Chromeo, KT Tunstall, Ben Folds, Grace Potter, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Toots and the Maytals, Nick Lowe, the Bacon Brothers…and so many more. Wax nostalgic with Chaz about having Kyra Sedgwick walk across his blanket at a Bacon Brothers concert. Ah, the memories.  And yes, we get back to listening to the redux version of Eclipse. We wrap up this listen season with comparisons to season one, what Lulu had going for it that Dark Side of the Moon Redux did not. If there had been more coverage, better press, more content, and greater context shared by the artist would it have been better received? If Roger hadn't tried to sing, if he hadn't added poetry and voiceovers, would it still be something you can listen to? The main question persists…why Roger, why? When the hosts start pining for the improvisational stylings of Metallica and Lou Reed, you know it's about time to wrap it up. Rather, the guys draw it out, going further out on a Rocket to Uranus than they ever have before. New heights in digressionary diversion and pointless nonsense, this episode really captures the essence of our final adjudication of Dark Side of the Moon Redux. Hearing Eclipse delivered with a James Hetfield staccato is worth the price of admission alone. We wrap it up with a bow – here's the message: life ain't all dark. That's the big epiphany of this album – that and we've determined that the answer to life, the universe and everything really is 42. Thanks, Roger, here's your towel. Now…what would Daryl do? Roger – listen to Daryl, he is the king of Redux. Find out for yourself – tune in at Live From Daryl's House.

In this break-one-off episode, hosts Chaz and Wolfie find some satisfaction and forego the courtesy flush while listening to the track Brain Damage from both the original and the Redux version of Pink Floyd's iconic "Dark Side of the Moon."  What a relief as the Digressionary Duo bust off some pent-up cheek-sneaks and bask in the after-glow of a number that ain't such a stinker after all. There's only one nasal cavity like Roger's, and he proves it's still his main instrument on this one. A tasty little track, but is it good enough to finally answer the question - Why Roger, why? - that's too easy and bollocks if our hosts know...

In this thought-provoking, WTF episode of Regarding...Roger, hosts Chaz Charles and Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe dive deep into the track Any Colour You Like from both the original and the Redux version of Pink Floyd's iconic "Dark Side of the Moon." The digressionary duo embarks on a lively and detailed analysis of the new interpretations and additions Roger Waters has made to the classic instrumental piece, making time to analyze the lyrics as well...as they should. They explore Waters' commentary on themes such as nationality, sexuality, and the symbolism behind flags, tying these to the current societal context with references to Ukraine and the rainbow flag, and all that implies. The episode is enriched with high-brow, speculative humor about Waters' intentions, playfully questioning the necessity and execution of this Redux project. In other words - Why Roger, why? As Chaz and Wolfie trip over themselves navigating this album they maintain a balance of reverence for the original work and a critical eye on the new layers added by Waters. They deserve your patronage and acclaim for having gotten this far in the challenge of interpreting the always cryptic newly added lyrics...this time pondering the potential meanings behind references to modern technology like CAT scans and electron microscopes. The episode not only serves as an entertainingly excruciating exploration of Waters' latest artistic endeavor but also serves as a glaring reminder that still, we ask...Why Roger, why? The WTF Episode. It was inevitable it would come to this. Chaz and Wolfie have endured quite a lot in the making of this podcast, and at a point, it becomes necessary to...go on a digression. Oh, and that's gonna be late...

Another heroic and historic episode of the podcast that listens so you don't have to...with a magical and golden crossing of the podcast streams complete with Alan "Schatz" Schatzberg from RushRash, and our hosts crashing Schatz' gig before teleporting his azz back into this show. The streaming circle is complete with this wiz-bang mash up unlike any episode of the Regarding...Series before it. In an incredibly brilliant cunning stunt on the Deep Dive Podcast Network, even if we do say so ourselves, Regarding...Roger and RushRash have crossed streams to create a fluid and flowing smashing of formats and general bustin' shit up episode - look away! SNAP! Join Wolfie, Chaz, and Schatz in a listen through the epic and jazzy Us and Them from the original, on the bone, peri-peri sauce dipped wing, and wax nostalgic over a plate of boneless wings just what the song meant to them. Then listen as they listen to the train wreck that is the redux version. Mercifully, a little shorter than the original...but that's because there was not much to add to such a brilliant composition and collaboration with Richard Wright. St. Richard, perhaps. F*$k David, thank you very much!

Roger! Get back, I'm alright Jack, keep your hands off my Dark Side of the Moon! Fakk, Chaz and Wolfie get beat over the head with some heavyweight add-on to the song Money…where the saxophone solo and the guitar solos go…and more than ever we ask…why Roger, why? Join our cohosts as they dig on listening to the entirely unchanged original epic track, on headphones, with plenty of mints on hand…cool baby, and waxing nostalgic for Gordon Gecco and a message the guys don't think they missed the first time, and a new message that leaves us wondering, even more, let us say that again, not to be rundant, but to be perfectly clear, we'd still really like to know, “why Roger, why?” We digress and go on...we discover the origins of the lyrics Roger stole from the London Underground, and listen to him blather on about how he has a demo of the music he wrote for Money, in addition to those lyrics that, you know, he wrote. He makes that clear again, and leaves us a little torn when it comes to the music. If you were at a cocktail party, and you heard the music come on, without the vocal, you might pause, recognize it as Money, and go on with you conversation, enjoying the reminessing sounds in the background, but fakk, he does his best Tom Waites, and...well...it's "why Roger, why?" But...it's the COVID for episode, and there are plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing, what the hell is in those mints… Grab your caviar and kick back for another fat-cat tongue-lashing and stern warning to choose more noble motives to guide your choice of vocation…cause they still ain't givin' none away.

Enquiring minds want to know...what do you get when you take the "Happiest Accident on the Album" (The Great Gig in the Sky) and mash it up with stories about Roger Waters' dead "friends"?? You get The Great Gig in the Sky Redux, the fifth mortally questionable track from Roger Waters' Dark Side of the Moon Redux... We're in middle-row purgatory, wedged between 4 songs that left us scratching our heads, and 5 more we're scared to ask to move so we can get up and use the lav. Why are the new versions always longer?? Chaz & Wolfie take a different listening approach on this one, given the absolute perfection and magnificence of the original track. Is it a better listening experience - who the fuk knows?? We're just glad we made it through another one without major gastrointestinal incident. It was close...butt we made it. Grab your banana and kick back for another ear-lashing, as we're joined by the late, great, Eddie "Phat Fingers" Perez, for a very Ouiga edition of Regarding Roger. Even from the Upside Down, they ask, why Roger, why? Mas Cervesa!!

Ticking away the moments that make up the dull new track...whoops...spoiler...Chaz & Wolfie get woke as a joke to the sounds of the new Time, versus the sublime subtleties and boneless silky guitar mastery of the original track. (Even that bass player turns in an iconic performance...) Seriously...four tracks in on Roger's Redux Moon and the guys finally find some music. They manage to keep it zipped for most of it and just listen, okay, that's not true, and there are disturbing tales of rest-stop ketchup & coke, a moving tribute to the man who told someone to take what became an iconic picture of Earth from the dark side of the moon, and a new resentment over allegations of broken Rogacratic Oath that leaves Wolfie wanting more. Of course, there are enough colorful expressions of fuckary and in such obscene context as to render the rating "explicit" on this episode for good cause, Mrs. Gore. Chaz needs a bar of lifeboy and a seat on the thunder-bucket to think through his attachment to the original work and be more open to geriatric artistic expression. Old men fart dust, not rock...pffftttt

Chaz & Wolfie are back to listening to sound effects with the third track off 1973's Dark Side of the Moon - the *light your rockship joints* auditory journey through the TSA feel up, pat down, cavity search and run through the concourse of your mind that is the frantic On the Run. Roger really does something different with the redux version, and our co-hosts end up further down the rabbit hole of philosophical contemplation and confusion. While several moments of clarity are achieved...wait...were they? Maybe it was all a dream? Why Roger, why? One, two, free, four...still not better than before.

Chaz & Wolfie go far afield listening to the first real full song from Roger Waters' Dark Side of the Moon Redux - Breathe (In the Air). Comparing the new work to the original, our co-hosts lean in and find some fun facts about the original and Wolfie discovers an old Floydian thread that Roger is weaving through his new version. This week we end up making up many more questions than answers, in a Hobesian-Cartesian Loop and we're wondering what the hell was in the Descartes of Romney's Mints and the RogerBrau that Chaz was drinking...but the listen through the new track was fun with a fascinating twist...join us for a brave new version of an old classic. We're still wondering...why Roger, why? One, two, free, four...

Chaz and Wolfie come back to the mic clean and showered and a few weeks removed from the last brush with the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, after having spent 4 months listening to all ten tracks. Join the boys and a panel of very special guests, who themselves have completed the listening journey - yes folks - living proof of the two listeners we spoke of so fondly...including fifth-Beatle of the Regarding...Series, Sullyman himself, zooming in from blue-meth capital of the US, New Mexico, along with Jonatan Hedlin of Deep Dive Podcast Network Fame - cohost of MAIDEN A-Z, the podcast that is an alphabetical journey through the Iron Maiden catalog; and SO FAR, SO POD...SO WHAT the all-things Megadeth Podcast, who's dialing in from 3 miles outside Stockholm, Sweeden - not too far from the Brandenburg Gate, where we all wax nostalgic as --- SMALL TOWN GIRLS!!! --- and start where we started so many months ago, by "dropping the needle" for our non-stop listen through all 1 hour and 27 minutes of the album Lulu, for what we're pretty sure is a special, one-of a kind, Disney Blue Ray event that will never be repeated again in our lifetimes - an International Lulu Listening Party. Join us for what we said we'd never do - put Lulu on and party!! And while it's probably best spoken of in hushed whispers at late night cocktail after-parties in well lou-bricated and mixed company, we all share on where we were when this journey started, where we ended up, some profound personal insights learned along the way, comparing scars, impressions, the experience and the outcome. What's a masterpiece, how is art consumed versus experienced, and...was that any fucking good or not? Judge for yourself - join us as we go through the highlights and lowlights and get to a new level of insights about ourselves and our ability to appreciate challenging art.

Wolfie & Chaz are yet again amazed that they each showed up on the zoom link to listen to yet another track from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Just kidding...While yes, our co-hosts question their sanity as well as that of those that listen to this aural escapade, they're eager to dive into the track this week, track 9 of 10, the 11:08 epic Dragon. Many insights have been gained from the recent interviews with Laurie Anderson and Lars Ulrich, and many of the open questions our co-hosts have had start to get answered from people that were in it and there.

Chaz & Wolfie are all in on this track off the 2001 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Being hep to the Lulu plays that were Lou Reed's source inspiration, our co-hosts think they've figured out the character portrait of Little Dog. And while they're probably right, we also know there's a lot more going on in these lyrics than is immediately identifiable.

Chaz and Wolfie find themselves on the homestretch in their aural adventures with the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, with this, the seventh track from the album, an 8 minute plus banger called Frustration. The clouds part, the heavens open, and you get a vision of what could have been a truly fulfilled vision for what Lou Reed categorized as a no-brainer collaboration between him and the biggest metal band in the world, Metallica. This song is the knowledge he had that there was something very powerful there. This one feels more finished and worthy of a fan's time. But is it enough to get Chaz and Wolfie thinking Bowie was right, that this is Lou's masterpiece, or was he wanking someones chain? Join us as we slather some Nando's Peri-Peri sauce our headphones, grab a plate of boneless wings, and swim into a rather spermless character study from the Lulu plays, on this, a not so very Hallmark edition of Regarding Lulu. Season 1. Regarding…Lulu 12 years ago, Lou Reed released his last recorded work: a collaboration album with Metallica called Lulu. It was widely panned by critics--and everyone else--almost immediately. Was the disdain deserved? Join us as we revisit the entire work, track-by-track, from the perspective of two musicians. One is a fan of Metallica; one is a fan of Lou Reed. One has heard Lulu; one has never heard it. Join us on a bloody journey of discovery. Has Lulu passed the test of time? Is it in fact a masterpiece or a major piece? We'll see...   Hosted by Chaz Charles and Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe. Join us bi-weekly.

Wolfie & Chaz listen to all 11:26 of Cheat On Me, the 6th track off Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. This marks "hump-episode" plus one, in that we've cleared the halfway mark in listening to the album track-by-bloody-track. This cut left our hosts in awe of their own ability to not run screaming from this assignment. If ever there was an episode to skip, this is it. What a stinker! Wow - we wouldn't wish this session on our worst enemies. Just kidding - or are they? A song with a lot of interesting twists and turns and off-key, nut-curling, "wtf were they thinking" back-up vocals. The song almost gets someplace...a couple of times. But our co-hosts are left just wanting more...chicken. Lots of chicken talk and a healthy dose of digression make for an average length episode with a big payload at the end of that order of Rocky Mountain Oysters. Join us for a sloppy plate of bison balls on a very fried-out episode of Regarding Lulu. Season 1.

Wolfie & Chaz dive into track 5 from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, and man oh manischewitz, is it a masterbanger of epic proportions - at least as far as Lou's catalog goes. Join us as we take in the last two weeks of Metallica 72 Seasons news, the band's newfound transparency regarding their love, admiration, forgiveness and support of one another, and a track that took us by surprise. And did we figure out who Lou is on this track?? We're left wanting more, like a honey pot in search of a...of a what?? Where??

This episode finds Wolfie and Chaz on track number 4, Mistress Dread, from Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. It would be a lie to say this song didn't leave our co-hosts feeling an urgent need to get clean as soon as the last note faded. Join us for what can only be described as an “aural incident”, on a very indecent episode. And if you like the podcast, please leave us a review to help us grow!! Season 1.

Wolfie and Chaz dive into the NEWS of the past 2 weeks - and "WOW!!" in fact there was Lulu news to report!! A new Lou Reed book, a new Lou Reed single, Metallica in the news discussing how well Lulu has aged - what an incredible coincidence!! So much more context for us to inform our listening of the album. And we put it to use immediately, as we take a hard listen to the third track from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, Pumping Blood. The art starts to reveal more direct ties to the source Lulu plays, but Loutallica throws our hosts for a loop, leaving them wondering, "where the hell can this go from here??"

Chaz and Wolfie visit on the news of the week, which is our inclusion in The Deep Dive Podcasting Network, Metallica's new song from their upcoming album 72 Seasons and James Hetfield's next obvious collaboration, this time with Peter Dinklage. In our main feature, we take a "more fairer" and balanced look at all this and the second track from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, called The View. This track kicked us in the nuts, not in a bad way. A track slaying with metal brutality, in the vein of the heaviest of Sabbath-drenched riffs...ever. Is the tide turning on the opinion into the album overall?? It's probably too early to tell, but the podcast is picking up steam with a meaty track up on the carving table...with a side of Swiss punkers The Lombego Surfers from Basel, Switzerland. Tony Thomas and the boys fry some kick-ass, surf-side garage punk right in your face.
