David Ellefson and co-host Joshua Toomey welcome Kamelot founder and guitarist Thomas Youngblood to the show for an in-depth conversation about the band's highly anticipated new album, Dark Asylum. Thomas discusses the creative process behind the new record and collaborating with Ignacia Fernandez (Miss World Chile). He also previews The Dark Asylum Tour featuring Visions of Atlantis and Frozen Crown, along with the band's own two-day destination festival, KamFest, and what fans can expect from these upcoming live events. The conversation also takes a nostalgic turn as Thomas reflects on growing up in the Tampa Bay area during one of heavy metal's most influential eras. He shares memories of the region's rich musical history, the bands that helped shape the scene, and how those experiences continue to influence Kamelot's sound today. The guys wrap things up by talking about the evolution of live performances, creating immersive stage productions, recording albums from home studios, and balancing modern technology with the epic theatrical experience Kamelot fans have come to expect. It's a fascinating discussion covering songwriting, touring, and the future of one of symphonic metal's most enduring bands.Join the Patreon for early access to episodes and Q and A's with the hosts www.patreon.com/tdesFor David Ellefson Stage Played Basses and Merch www.ellefsonemporium.comFollow David on Social Medialinktr.ee/davidellefsonFollow Joshua on Social Medialinktr.ee/talktoomeypodcast #megadeth #bassplayer #thrash #bigfour

An abandoned psychiatric hospital seemed like the perfect destination for two teenagers interested in photography and urban exploration.The sprawling campus had been empty for decades, leaving behind crumbling buildings, endless hallways, and an unsettling silence that made every sound feel amplified. As they searched for the perfect place to photograph, strange voices echoed through underground tunnels, heavy metal doors slammed somewhere above them, and an uneasy feeling followed them from building to building.Then, while looking up at one of the empty windows, she saw an elderly man in what looked like a hospital gown walking past. Before he reached the next window, he simply disappeared.The photos were never worth going inside after that.#RealGhostStories #GhostStories #TrueGhostStories #AbandonedAsylum #KingsPark #UrbanExploration #HauntedHospital #Paranormal #Supernatural #HauntedPlaces #CreepyEncounters #ScaryStories Love real ghost stories?

"My temple is twinned, my icky is thumped, and my asylum is Kia." The hosts break down country artist Charley Crockett's decision to drop the satanic doo-wop duo Twin Temple from his tour schedule. The situation took an unexpected turn when rock icon Jack White stepped in to save the day, offering Twin Temple an opening slot at the Hollywood Palladium. This leads the hosts to debate whether the entire falling out was a genuinely naive booking blunder or a cleverly orchestrated PR stunt meant to drive headlines and attention for both parties. The hosts explore the viral internet concept known as the "Kia Asylum" (or Kya Asylum). They explain how the term describes pop stars, one-hit wonders, and alternative acts whose careers get stalled or shelved by labels after failing to replicate the massive commercial success of an early hit single. The discussion covers mainstream pop figures like Lizzo, Bebe Rexha, and Kim Petras, analyzing the difference between having a fleeting viral hit and cultivating a sustainable, long-term fanbase.

The U.S Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the Trump Administration in ending Temporary Protected Status for hundreds of thousands of Haitians and Syrians in the country which potentially could lead to deportations. The International Rescue Committee is trying to counter this setback. Hans Van de Weerd is the IRC Senior Vice President of Resettlement, Asylum and Integration. He shares insight on the current plight of those impacted and how misinformation is shaping perception of TPS holders. It's awful and the symptoms include explosive diarrhea. The current cyclosporiasis outbreak has been identified in more than half of the United States, but it's not exactly clear as to its origin other than lettuce. Jodie Guest, professor and senior vice chair in the department of epidemiology at Emory University's Rollins School of Public Health talks about keeping your household safe and how the Centers for Disease Control under the Trump administration was forced to cut back on its surveillance network for several pathogens, including cyclospora.

Hawk focuses on Springfield, Ohio, where he grew up nearby, using two newsletters by Jim Swift at the Bulwark. Haitians came to Springfield at the request of the Republican governor and mayor to fill unfilled manufacturing jobs and reverse decades of population decline. They filled factories, opened businesses, started churches, and stabilized the city, until Donald Trump and JD Vance spread the fabricated story about immigrants eating pets, after which Pastor Carl Ruby says business relocation inquiries stopped entirely. The numbers and the human cost both land hard. Ohio's Haitian population produces an estimated $160 million in annual economic output and nearly $40 million in taxes. Governor Mike DeWine says the state will not interfere. Hawk covers the asylum backlog, the Kavanaugh stops concurrence, Sherrod Brown's push for an extension, and what returning to Haiti actually means.

Anthony Frith, disillusioned by the possibility his filmmaking dreams might have been usurped by everyday responsibilities, decided to go boldly into the unknown.He emailed legendary mockbuster (parodies of blockbuster films - i.e. TRANSMORPHERS instead of TRANSFORMERS) studio The Asylum to ask if they'd let him direct a movie. Never mind the fact Anthony had never directed a feature film. But the worst they could say was "No," right?To his surprise, The Asylum accepted and this is where Frith's documentary MOCKBUSTER kicks in, telling the story of his "6-day special," a phrase coined by The Asylum for movies filmed in - you guessed it - six days.What results is chaos, not dissimilar to that of a freshly-punted anthill. After receiving his mission in Los Angeles, Frith flies home to Australia to wait weeks for a script, wrangle together a local cast and crew, wade through studio interference and get the thing done, all while occasionally staring off into the distance to ask "Am I cut out for this?"It's a touching, funny documentary about providing one's nascent creativity with enough bumps and scrapes to take shape in the real world. What starts out as growing pains, this painful dichotomy between the fears of selling out and the inability to fulfill the purest expressions of art, turns into a gentle reminder: Don't take it all too seriously. Have fun. The joys of birthing a project into the world outweigh the terrors and labors of getting it there. It's a mockbuster, baby.

We have spent years talking about how important The Blair Witch Project is. We discuss the pros and cons of the latest reimagining of the iconic found footage classic. And we are definitely interested. Plus, the latest internet horror fad that Hollywood wants to adapt into a movie. And while it does seem a little silly to us, they do have a strong director attached to it. The Asylum has been putting out grade-A quality B movies for a long time. Sharknado may be their most well-known, but their specialty are mockbusters like Tomb Invader and Top Gunner. We could not wait to take a look at their inner workings. Mockbuster does much more than that. Sure, there is plenty of footage from The Asylum library. And yes, all of it is amazing. The interviews with the people at the top of the company are also great. They know the score and are funny, entertaining, and informative. But it is the documentary's subject that is the beating heart of the film. Anthony Frith is one of the most charming people we have ever seen and we enjoyed watching his journey. Mockbuster ended up being an unexpected feel-good watch thanks to Frith and all of the incredibly supportive people featured. On top of all that, we get to see how a movie from The Asylum gets made!

Last week, the Supreme Court ruled on several issues related to immigration policy. While the court narrowly preserved birthright citizenship, it issued other rulings that will put an untold number of people in danger. One ruling, Mullin v Al Otro Lado, upheld the federal government's policy of turning back asylum seekers before they can reach the US-Mexico border—a policy also known as “metering”—hollowing out the right to asylum enshrined in both domestic and international law. In her dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor referenced the St. Louis, the ship of Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany turned away from the US, whose passengers were mostly killed in the Holocaust: “Congress passed the Refugee Act in 1980 because it did not want this country to repeat the mistakes of its past. Yet if the refugees on the M. S. St. Louis were to walk up to a port of entry on our southern border today, the majority's interpretation would allow immigration officers to refuse even to consider their asylum applications by physically blocking them from stepping foot onto US soil,” she said.In another ruling, Mullin v Doe, the Supreme Court granted the president the power to end the Temporary Protected Status program, or TPS, which has allowed vetted and eligible immigrants to live and work legally in the US if they cannot return safely to their countries. Justice Samuel Alito, in his majority opinion, said courts do not have a say in what the president and the Department of Homeland Security decide; the president can end TPS for Haitians and Syrians without judicial review. He also rejected a separate claim brought by Haitians that the move to deport them was based in racial prejudice. TPS has been in effect since 1990. There are 350,000 Haitians who have been in the US legally under TPS, and whose lives have now been thrown into chaos.In our spring issue, we published a prescient piece by immigration reporter Tanvi Misra about the death of asylum, and the ways that its decline is a dire portent for democracy itself. Asylum, Misra reminds us, is a “place-based right” designed to prioritize human life over national borders: As soon as an endangered person steps foot onto a country's soil, they “are entitled to that body's protection,” regardless of whether they crossed with permission. This is exactly the principle that has been undermined with this recent ruling, which prevents people from arriving and making an application. As this ruling suggests, for as long as asylum has existed in the US, so have efforts to weaken it. It has been issued selectively and on racial grounds—much more easily been granted to German-speaking Protestants than to Jews escaping the Holocaust; readily offered to Cubans fleeing Castro but not to Haitians fleeing the US-supported Duvalier dictatorship.Misra's essay tells us that this tactic of denying landfall to migrants as a way of denying them asylum has gone into overdrive in the past decades as border agents try to intercept asylum seekers earlier and earlier in their journeys. In the process, the US border has, Misra says, “not just hardened, but expanded”—into Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, and beyond. Under Trump 2.0, the border has also spilled inward, into LA, Chicago, Minneapolis, and all the other places where border agents are chasing down asylum seekers and, increasingly, all migrants.In this episode of On the Nose, recorded in mid-June before the Supreme Court rulings, Misra speaks about these grievous attacks on asylum with John Washington, a staff reporter at Lookout and the author of the forthcoming book, How to Close a Camp: Dispatches from the Fight Against Immigrant Detention, as well as The Case for Open Borders and The Dispossessed: A Story of Asylum at the US-Mexico Border.This conversation was originally a live membership event.
