Podcasts about Judas Priest

Dolly Parton died on August 25, 2026, at age 80. While most tributes are focused on the music, this episode looks at something else entirely: Dolly Parton the businesswoman and entertainer. She sang at the Grand Ole Opry at 13 and was still building her empire seven decades later, which is rare in an industry where most acts have a five-to-ten-year run. As we like to say around here, success leaves clues, and Dolly left a lot of them. Below are 12 lessons pulled from her career, each one translated into something a podcaster can actually use.Take Advantage of Opportunities When They Show UpIn the late 1960s, a teenage Dolly landed a spot on the syndicated Porter Wagoner Show, earning $60,000 a year — by her own account, more money than she'd ever seen. She could have stayed comfortable as Porter's sidekick. Instead, she used the platform to build her name, and when she'd gotten what she needed from it, she left in 1974 to build something that was actually hers. Wagoner threatened to have her dropped from her label and later sued her; she ended up paying roughly $1 million to settle it, and the relationship took years to repair before the two eventually reconciled (American Songwriter, Cheat Sheet).Why it matters for your podcast: your show builds relationships, those relationships create opportunities, and taking advantage of those opportunities (a guest slot, a speaking gig, a collaboration) is what grows your audience — which creates more relationships. It's a loop, and it only works if you actually act when the opportunity shows up.Build a Podcast Brand People Instantly RecognizeYou knew Dolly when you saw her. Her wig, the rhinestones, the exaggerated glamour, her boobs, wasn't an accident. She said she based it on the town's "tramp."Dolly's response: I wanted to look like her. I thought she was beautiful. Her best line, "It costs a lot of money to look this cheap" says it all. When Barbara Walters pushed her on it in a 1970s interview, essentially implying she looked like a hillbilly, Dolly shot back that she might "kick her in the shin" and laughed the whole way through it.Why it matters for your podcast: a distinctive brand gets you noticed once. Celebrity, a striking name, a bold visual that earns the first click. What earns the return listener is the talent and substance behind it. Dolly had both, and so should your show.Own Your Audience — Don't Rent It to a PlatformDolly wrote "I Will Always Love You" in 1973 as a farewell to Porter Wagoner. When Elvis wanted to record it in 1974, his manager Colonel Tom Parker demanded the publishing rights as a condition for Elvis to record it. This was a standard (crappy) practice for an Elvis cut at the time.Dolly said no, even though it was Elvis. Nearly two decades later, Whitney Houston's version spent 14 weeks at No. 1 and sold an estimated 20 million copies. Because Dolly still owned 100% of the publishing, that single song brought her roughly $10 million in royalties in the 1990s alone, and an estimated $20 million total from the Houston version according to Forbes (American Songwriter).Why it matters for your podcast: As fellow podcaster Steve Stewart puts it, "Don't sell your audience to your sponsor, sell your sponsor on the value of your audience." The same logic applies to platforms: own your website, your domain, and your email list so no single network or app can take your audience away from you. It happens — YouTube pulled a top parenting podcast off the platform entirely (before reinstating it after public pressure). Dolly held onto her publishing because she knew the long game mattered more than a quick win. Hold onto your feed the same way. This is why an RSS feed is important. You can't be cancelled, and you can easily move to a new host if needed.Don't Take Yourself Too SeriouslyLong before a critic could land a joke, Dolly had already made it herself. On plastic surgery: "If I see something sagging, bagging, or dragging, I'm going to have it nipped, tucked, or sucked." Even the announcement of her passing carried her sense of humor forward, joking that she was finally ready to trade the rhinestones for something more comfortable.Why it matters for your podcast: self-deprecating humor makes an audience like you more. If you can laugh at yourself — a mistake, dated gear, a rough first episode — listeners relax and warm up to you faster. Have fun with your show. Otherwise, you'll burn out on it.Be Consistent — It Builds TrustDolly reportedly slept in her makeup in case she had to get up in the middle of the night for an emergency, because she never wanted to be seen without it. More importantly, she was always, unmistakably Dolly be it on stage or off, in an interview or in a duet, across 70 years of performing. People who met her said what you saw on stage is exactly what you got in person.Why it matters for your podcast: consistency isn't just about your publishing schedule (though that matters too) — it's about your output staying recognizably you. A listener who hasn't tuned in for six months should know exactly what they're getting the moment they hit play.Know Your WhyDollywood already existed under a couple of generic names before Dolly bought into it in 1986. She didn't just license her name and collect a check — she built it to bring jobs to her hometown region in Tennessee, rooting the business in something true about her instead of something generic and scalable. Today it generates an estimated $180–580 million a year, with her stake alone valued around $165 million.Why it matters for your podcast: plenty of celebrities slap their name on a generic product — a tequila brand, a theme park, a template — and it doesn't work because the "why" isn't real. If you're just copying someone else's show format and putting your name on it, it's probably not going to land. Know why you're actually doing this.Secondly if you put your name behind it, it better be a positive reflection of you (think about this when it comes to sponsors). If you say a product is great, and your audience buys it and it's not, they won't buy anything else from you as your integrity is shot.Experiment With New Formats Without Losing Your IdentityDolly moved from country into pop in the '70s (9 to 5 and more), then made the bluegrass albums she couldn't make earlier in her career because they were "too niche" — as she put it, "I had to get rich so I could come back and sound poor" (BrainyQuote). She went into TV, movies, and near the end of her life a Broadway musical. It was based on her own story, for which she wrote much of the score (so you could say she liked to stay busy).She initially tried to withdraw her name from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame consideration, saying she hadn't "earned that right," then was inducted anyway and leaned all the way in, dueting with Judas Priest's Rob Halford at the ceremony (Rolling Stone, Fox News). She later recorded "Please Please Please" with Sabrina Carpenter — a genre-crossing pairing where each artist's fans discovered the other (Rolling Stone).Why it matters for your podcast: every new genre, format, or collaboration was still unmistakably Dolly. That's the model — try new things, but stay recognizably yourself. And notice the audience-sharing angle: pairing with an artist (or podcaster) who has an adjacent audience introduces you to people who'd never have found you otherwise. That's exactly what cross-promotion with a show in your niche can do for you.Outsource What You're Not Good AtWhen Dolly wrote and starred in the 1986 TV movie A Smoky Mountain Christmas, she knew the script and the performance were her strengths — but directing wasn't, so she brought in Henry Winkler (yes, the Fonz) to direct (Yahoo News).Why it matters for your podcast: do the parts of your show you're genuinely good at and enjoy, and hand off the rest — editing, show notes, technical setup — to someone who does it better than you.Give Back to Build LoyaltyDespite her wealth, Dolly gave away enormous sums, saying she prayed for "enough to share and enough to spare." In 1995 she launched the Imagination Library in...

Reload Festival Part 2: Kira Returns with the Post-Festival RecapIn this follow-up episode, the host chats with Kira from Germany after she returns from Reload Festival to recap how it went. They start with quick personal and metal-themed questions (tea vs. coffee, beach vs. mountains, horror vs. comedy, front-row preference, Iron Maiden vs. Judas Priest, Slayer over Metallica, black metal vs. death metal, harsh vocals, small clubs, favorite non-metal music, and a dream show: Alice In Chains' original lineup), and the host mentions his horror podcast “Someone's in My Fruit Cellar,” where they build soundtracks for classic horror movies. Kira describes Reload as sold-out with about 20,000 visitors, extreme heat and heavy dust, crowd surfing during Terror, and seeing bands like Judas Priest (including “Turbo Lover”), Gaerea, Deafheaven, Orbit Culture, Kittie, and Lamb of God, plus festival food, camping options, and early announcements for next year. She praises the Reload team for providing free face masks and managing dust with watering.

Tora Tora beat Metallica in a poll. That alone should tell you something about how this show works.This 80s Metal episode covers Tora Tora's 1989 debut Surprise Attack, the surprise winner of a four-way Patreon poll against Metallica's Master of Puppets, Slade's Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply, and Motörhead's Iron Fist. The Memphis band's blend of Judas Priest style riffing and Beale Street blues set them apart from the Sunset Strip pack, and the hosts dig into the record's three singles, its reverb-heavy production, a firsthand tour bus story from 1992, and the band's ongoing reissue campaign and 2019 reunion. If you love Tesla, Badlands, or late-80s hard rock that never quite got its due, this episode is for you.Episode highlights:00:00: Poll results and Tora Tora's landslide win06:35: A 1992 tour bus story from backstage at a Newport headlining show20:39: What works on Surprise Attack40:04: The production issue holding the record back49:43: Final host ratingsSubscribe to Dig Me Out at digmeoutpodcast.com | Join the Board of Directors at dmounion.com Have a lost or forgotten album that deserves the spotlight?

We're happy to welcome back rock n roll comedian Don Jamieson to kick off Season 4 of First Concert Memories! You all may remember Don from That Metal Show on VH1 Classic or from his podcast with Keith Roth, ⁠The Rock Strap⁠. To start off Season 4 of the monthly sidecast from your friends at The Ugly American Werewolf in London, Don's sharing his memories of seeing Iron Maiden open for Judas Priest in the summer of 1982. Yes, it's the same tour that Brian Slagel spoke about on FCM earlier this year and yes, we had our friend Steven Michael of the Growin' Up Rock Podcast to talk seeing Maiden helping to assemble Nicko's drumkit. But this night for Don really forged his metal allegiance, made him a lifelong Judas Priest fan and would lead him to That Metal Show and becoming friends with the guys in the band. Don talks about how he discovered the Killers album in a record store and based on Eddie with his axe, he just had to buy the album. Of course, from there he was hooked and as soon as he was old enough to buy the tickets with his lawn mowing money and get a ride from someone with a car (that didn't go in reverse), he jumped at the chance. Hear him regale us with the presence of Paul Di'Anno and how the volume left his ears ringing for days and when he eventually interviewed Paul with Eddie Trunk and Jim Florentine (who were also in the crowd that night) on That Metal Show.

In this podcast episode, the host Blake talks with Kira from Germany, a Metal Pit writer and past Metal Maiden of the Month, about the upcoming three-day Reload Festival in Germany and plans to record a follow-up episode after it happens. They plug TheMetalPit.org, the new Metal Maiden of the Month Jelena Rupic from Serbia, upcoming History of Metal and trivia pages, and invite female listeners and volunteer writers/photographers to get involved. Kira describes Reload as a mid-sized festival (about 15–18,000 people) with two close stages that never run bands at the same time, plus camping. They discuss acts she's excited for (Soulfly, Terror, Orbit Culture, Arch Enemy with new vocalist Lauren Hart, and Gaerea), her hope Judas Priest plays “Turbo Lover,” festival safety, staying hydrated during summer heat, and why Reload's friendly atmosphere makes it appealing for people who dislike very large festivals.

80's Judas Priest

On episode 263, we welcome J. Aaron Simmons and Benjamin McGraw to discuss the philosophy of heavy metal, the satanic panic and the Judas Priest trial, metal as an expression of liberty and individuality, the intellectual diversity in metal, challenging racist and misogynistic ideologies in the sphere, music as an expression of rebellion and critical thinking, the battle between reactionary and progressive beliefs and how it manifests in the war against the devil, the paradox of Christian metal, and transcending the need to transgress as an authentic expression of metal fandom. J. Aaron Simmons is a Professor of Philosophy who has published over a dozen books, the most recent is Camping with Kierkegaard. Simmons is the former President of the Søren Kierkegaard Society (USA) and writes regularly for his Substack, Philosophy in the Wild. Benjamin W. McCraw is Instructor of Philosophy at the University of South Carolina Upstate and Research Associate at the African Centre for Epistemology and Philosophy of Science (ACEPS), University of Johannesburg. He works in epistemology and philosophy of religion and has published in journals including Social Epistemology, Faith and Philosophy, Acta Analytica, and Religious Studies. Their new book, available now, is called The Heaviest Ideas in the Universe: A Philosophy of Heavy Metal. | J. Aaron Simmons & Benjamin W.

We're happy to welcome back rock n roll comedian Don Jamieson to kick off Season 4 of First Concert Memories! You all may remember Don from That Metal Show on VH1 Classic or from his podcast with Keith Roth, The Rock Strap. To start off Season 4 of the monthly sidecast from your friends at The Ugly American Werewolf in London, Don's sharing his memories of seeing Iron Maiden open for Judas Priest in the summer of 1982. Yes, it's the same tour that Brian Slagel spoke about on FCM earlier this year and yes, we had our friend Steven Michael of the Growin' Up Rock Podcast to talk seeing Maiden helping to assemble Nicko's drumkit. But this night for Don really forged his metal allegiance, made him a lifelong Judas Priest fan and would lead him to That Metal Show and becoming friends with the guys in the band. Don talks about how he discovered the Killers album in a record store and based on Eddie with his axe, he just had to buy the album. Of course, from there he was hooked and as soon as he was old enough to buy the tickets with his lawn mowing money and get a ride from someone with a car (that didn't go in reverse), he jumped at the chance. Hear him regale us with the presence of Paul Di'Anno and how the volume left his ears ringing for days and when he eventually interviewed Paul with Eddie Trunk and Jim Florentine (who were also in the crowd that night) on That Metal Show. Make sure you follow Don @donjamiesonofficial to check out where you can see him live!

We're back with another edition of DBG Times, covering the rockers we lost, milestone album anniversaries, and a packed slate of new releases. In Rockstar Deathdays, we remember Jim Morrison, Jeff LaBar, Gary Corbett, Dick Wagner, Wayne Charvel, Jennifer Finch, and the legendary Ozzy Osbourne. This month's album anniversaries cover an enormous range of rock history. We look back at Heart's Beautiful Broken, Billy Talent's Afraid of Heights, the hard-rock detour of Chrome Division, and the long-awaited New York Dolls comeback album One Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This. We also revisit Judas Priest's controversial Ripper Owens era with Demolition, the internal turmoil surrounding the Black Crowes' Three Snakes and One Charm, and Alice Cooper's star-studded Hey Stoopid. Other anniversaries include the killer Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey soundtrack, David Lee Roth's supergroup debut Eat 'Em and Smile, Motörhead's Orgasmatron, Def Leppard's breakthrough-building High 'n' Dry, the Ramones' conflicted Pleasant Dreams, Funkadelic's dark and groundbreaking Maggot Brain, and the heavy Welsh debut from Budgie. We wrap things up with July's new releases, including fresh music from Deep Purple, the Rolling Stones, Smoking Snakes, Tesla, Coven Japan, Zan/Cody, Five Finger Death Punch, and Sinner's twenty-first and final studio album. It's another trip through rock history, loaded with stories, arguments, memories, and plenty of albums worth revisiting. We hope you enjoy DBG Times for July and SHARE with a friend.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Brad Crowell 0:59  All right, let's do this. So today is the 710 Megan Applegate. Take it away there, Lesley.Lesley Logan 1:08  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap, where my co-host life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the strategic convo I had with Megan Applegate in our last episode.Brad Crowell 1:10  Oh yeah, it was strategic.Lesley Logan 1:17  She is a resume whisperer Brad Crowell 1:21  and LinkedIn QueenLesley Logan 1:22  Yes, which we all need, me included. But I just kind of, I'm like, you guys, if you have been one of those people who doesn't apply for a job because you don't qualify for all parts, you need to talk to Megan, because she's a badass. Anyways, before we get into that, you can go listen to her right now, and then listen to us talk about some stuff before we talk about Megan.Brad Crowell 1:39  Yeah.Lesley Logan 1:40  Today is July 23rd 2026, and it's National Gorgeous Grandma Day. So, today we celebrate the incredible grandmothers in our lives each year. This special day encourages us to recognize their timeless beauty, unwavering love, and invaluable wisdom. As we're reading this, I'm just thinking about my two grandmas, and I'm just gonna say,Brad Crowell 1:58  invaluable wisdom, Lesley Logan 2:00  unwavering love, I'm not so sure, I will give them their... timeless beauty... my grandmother was beautiful. Both my grandmothers are beautiful in their own way. One looks like an actual grandmother from the day I was out of the womb, and the other one had tattooed eyeliner and purple hair, so.Brad Crowell 2:17  Amazing.Lesley Logan 2:18  Anyways, invaluable wisdom. Show your appreciation by spending quality time, showering them with gifts, or simply telling them how gorgeous they truly are. Seriously, if your gorgeous grandma is still here on this earth, pause this now and call her, and then come back, because we're going to talk about Megan Applegate. Brad inserted that very seamless, and it's in there. He knows I don't read these things before we get them on the air, so I'm like that one reporter, Keith Olbermann always makes fun of him, because he just reads whatever's on the teleprompter. I would just get myself in so much trouble because I would just read what's on the teleprompter, but then I'm like, what?Brad Crowell 2:49  Hilarious.Lesley Logan 2:49  Unwavering love and invaluable wisdom. Well, one of my grandmothers, the first time she drove, she backed the truck into a tree and left the engine running until it died, backed into a tree, and so she never got a driver's license. So that was some wisdom.Brad Crowell 3:05  Never drove again, that's hilarious.Lesley Logan 3:08  She was a stubborn one. Anyways, you guys, I have a teacher training program that I've been talking about online now, so I have to share it here. If you listen to the FYFs, I've been kind of hinting at a project that I've been working on for quite some time, and I'm really proud of the work I'm doing. Now we can actually share it, so it's all true. It's called upLift, and the L is capital in that, because I like to be cute. It's going to start probably early next year, and you'll be able to find an epic teacher trainer near you that will host my program. So if you know someone who wants to become a Pilates instructor, or you're listening to this and you've done some instructor training but not a full comprehensive, you're going to want to get on the waitlist to go through the upLift program, which is xxlll.co/uws. Now, if you are already comprehensively trained and you would prefer to train directly with me, then you actually want to be in my mentorship program, or some people call it a master's program, and you want to go to eLevate. We already have done a live Q&A call, because it happens on July 9th.Brad Crowell 4:13  And that's what, oh. Lesley Logan 4:15  This is July 23rd, 2026. I just said the date, it's National Grandma's Day, so looking at Brad in real time trying to make this sheet. So anyways, you missed the live call, but you can still watch it and hear all about it. If there's any spaces in 2028, go to lesleylogan.co/elevate. Now, if you're like, "2028, that's so far away," look, if you just want to go through the training that I've created, upLift is going to be for you in 2027 and you can be with one of my educators. If you want to be with me, then you want to be in eLevate. If you want to be an upLift educator, you need to go through eLevate, so there's all that. Okay.Brad Crowell 4:48  If you want to be an upLlift educator, yes, you have to go through eLevate as well. So, if you have questions about that, just. Lesley Logan 4:54  If you are like, "This is my first time. Why does everyone rave about the show? What the fuck are they talking about, the grandmas and Pilates?" Just keep listening, it gets better. Okay, stick to it. We're gonna "be it till you see it" for you. Our summer tour is literally around the corner. We are leaving next week, I think, or maybe in 10 days. Yeah, so at the time of this recording, the first two stops are sold out. The third stop is in Nashville, and it has the workshop space left. Knoxville is our rooftop mat class repertoire. Brad Crowell 5:26  That is gonna be so fun. I'm really looking forward to that.Lesley Logan 5:29  Same, me too. And then we'll be back in Greensboro. We've never been in Greensboro in the summer, so this is really exciting. It's a really cool studio, it's an old mill. And then we're gonna be in Augusta, Georgia, and then we're gonna be in Atlanta. Look, the time we're recording this, it had three spots left total at that stop, and then someone just bought one, so there are two spots left at the time of recording, which is,Brad Crowell 5:48  in Atlanta,Lesley Logan 5:49  in Atlanta, Then Huntsville, Alabama has five spots left today, which is not today when you're listening to this, so check. Then we have Birmingham, Alabama, and then Jackson, Mississippi, both of those had two spots left today. And then we have Frisco, Texas, which is north of Dallas. There was room, there's plenty of room in the workshop there as of today. Not plenty, but there's room. El Paso, we're gonna have a Spanish,Brad Crowell 6:12  This is gonna be really cool.Lesley Logan 6:14  translator, in Spanish. I've.Brad Crowell 6:16  It's our first stop in El Paso to teach.Lesley Logan 6:19  Yeah.Brad Crowell 6:19  So really, really excited about that. And yeah, first time having a translator in the United States.Lesley Logan 6:03  I'm so excited! I've had translators before, but this is gonna be so fun, but not in the States, so this is gonna be great. So we are in El Paso, and then we're gonna be in Tucson, a couple spots left there, and then Vegas, and that's half sold out. So all this is the bragging to say, get your tickets, what are you waiting for? opc.me/tourBrad Crowell 6:30  opc.me/tour Lesley Logan 6:32  It is powered by Balanced Body, which means we have gift certificates, prizes, and we're bringing Contrology equipment for you to try out. So, you're going to want to go do that. And then, if you are new here, don't forget to check out our Pilates flashcards. We'll have them at the tour, but you can actually get them from us. I had someone ask me, "Is it better to get from you directly or from Amazon?" And I said, if you like giving Jeff Bezos money, you can get it from Amazon, but if you want to give a small business, a family-owned team money, which means the money goes to, first of all, if you buy flashcards from us, we give money to the Nevada SPCA, and we give money to our team, and all that good stuff, and we can keep making these flashcards, you go to opc.me/flashcards. So, anyway, she said, "Of course, I love supporting small businesses," and I said, "Thank you." And then we also have posters, and people have been asking about this. You want to know something? Don't buy the ones on Temu, they stole mine. You are welcome, while we are waiting for them to take that shit down, to go find them and leave a shitty review. Tell them that they're stealing, because they fucking are. But you can buy ours that have good images.Brad Crowell 7:49  Tell us how you really feel.Lesley Logan 7:50  I'm so fucking pissed. I'm pissed, but I have my "I need a moment" on the Fuck Yeah Fridays now. I think I've mentioned it already there. But at any rate, opc.me/posters is where you get the posters, and you kind of want both, just saying.Brad Crowell 8:04  Kind of want both.Lesley Logan 8:05  And the posters ship from wherever they print around the world. So, my peeps who live internationally, the shipping on the posters is not going to be terrible. The flashcards, so sorry for where you live, but we do have people in high places like Canada and Australia, and we are working on some othersBrad Crowell 8:22  Working on the UK,Lesley Logan 8:23  working on the UK. We've got a couple of options. You know what? Think time travel, things move slowly. Just gonna say it, my brain moves fast, but things move slow. All right, as you know, we talk about a charity, and this week's charity, who's up, Brad?Brad Crowell 8:36  Yeah, this week we are featuring Project Marilyn. This week we're highlighting Project Marilyn, a Las Vegas nonprofit fighting period poverty right here in southern Nevada. Founded in 2019 by Wendi, I am gonna butcher this name, Schweigart,Lesley Logan 8:52  or Schweigart,Brad Crowell 8:52  Schweigart, and named after her late mother, Marilyn, the organization,Lesley Logan 8:56  Who was probably a gorgeous grandma.Brad Crowell 8:57  Well, clearly, she must be a gorgeous grandma because she had a daughter, so.Lesley Logan 9:02  Well, she had a daughter. Her daughter might not have a daughter, but her daughter is giving. Brad Crowell 9:05  Oh, she's probably a gorgeous grandma.Lesley Logan 9:06  Her daughter is giving period supplies for free to all these kids around here, so she kind of has a lot of grandkids. Brad Crowell 9:13  Yeah, the organization makes sure everyone has a healthy, dignified period by providing monthly bags of tampons, pads, and hygiene wipes to people who cannot afford them, supplies that are among the least donated and most overlooked basic needs out there, and programs like SNAP and WIC won't cover.Lesley Logan 9:29  It's like your food stamps.Brad Crowell 9:31  Yeah, so what started with one woman honoring her mom has grown into a real local force, a volunteer crew called the Period Posse, back-to-back best nonprofit recognition in the Las Vegas Review-Journal's Best of Las Vegas Reader Poll, and a tripling of its reach in just the last couple of years, all while staying lean and locally run. If you've ever taken a clean, dignified period for granted, this is the chance to make sure someone else can, too.Lesley Logan 9:57  Also, so many of us who have all the access to all the period supplies in the world have had moments where it doesn't feel dignified, and so if you're like.Brad Crowell 10:06  Also, we charge a lot for that too. It's very, it's taxed.Lesley Logan 10:11  It's taxed, it's fucking annoying. If men needed period supplies, they'd be fucking free, and I know it feels like we harp on that, but truly, it would. The fucking female razors are more expensive, and they're the same fucking thing, they just make them pink and charge more. So, if you are like, "Guys, why did you do a Las Vegas one?" I actually have had connections with Project Marilyn. I've been at different charity events that they're at, they do really great work. If you are in Las Vegas and you go to their website, you can actually find out where they have locations for free period supplies, like the local library. You go and you just say, "I have a package from Marilyn," and they will just give you free period supplies. Isn't that the cutest thing? Brad Crowell 10:35  That's pretty cute. Lesley Logan 10:37  There's another organization that sponsors them that's more national, and that is the Alliance for Period Supplies, and they are doing really great work trying to do different things in the legislation, and also work on ending period poverty. It looks like this one works with smaller organizations to keep getting the supplies out there.Brad Crowell 11:09  Yeah, go to projectmarilyn.com M-A-R-I-L-Y-N if you want to donate, or if you're looking for something a little more national, theLesley Logan 11:17  allianceforperiodsupplies.org. Just so we're all clear, 76% of Americans believe period supplies should be free of charge at public schools and public universities, and you know where they were free my whole adult life? Equinox. I could get free period supplies at my fancy gym.Brad Crowell 11:34  Did not know that.Lesley Logan 11:35  Yes, I could, you can. So it was perks of being a member. But anyways, I just really like this, I like the idea. I think if we could help, it would also be great if these period people businesses would stop making the tampons in crinkly, loud paper, so these poor girls don't have to hide it in their sleeve and it crinkles, and then everyone knows what they're doing. Stop making things embarrassing, and also teach boys to not be assholes about it. All right, now we're good. I'm off my soapbox.Brad Crowell 12:02  Hey, if you have a charity that we think we should feature, or if you have a question that we might answer on our Sunday YouTube lives, go to beitpod.com/questions that's beitpod.com/questions and you can leave us either a win for the Friday episodes, or a question, or Lesley Logan 12:17  No questions. You can leave a charity. The link is so outdated, but we're not changing it, because it's living there. The questions we answer on Sundays on YouTube. Brad Crowell 12:25  That's what I was gonna say. So you can send in your question, and we'll answer it on YouTube on Sundays if you want to.Lesley Logan 12:31  All right, I guess, yeah.Brad Crowell 12:32  So stick around, we'll be right back. Brad Crowell 12:35  All right, so let's talk about Megan Applegate. She's the founder of Career Blueprint Solutions, and a recruiter, resume writer, and career coach who has spent the last seven years helping high achievers land the roles they actually want. After a 20-year career in hospitality, she pivoted into recruiting and built her business from the ground up. Today, she guides clients through the realities of modern hiring, from getting past the applicant tracking systems to positioning themselves on LinkedIn so the right opportunities come directly to them.Lesley Logan 13:06  Yeah, I was really excited to have her on because, you know, not everyone who listens to this wants to have their own business. A lot of people who listen to this want a good job, and there's so much uncertainty in the world with AI and all these different things. I'm tired of hearing the statistics, even though we've known it for years, where women are just not necessarily applying for jobs because they don't hit all the boxes they think. She has really navigated the change in how you apply for things, how you position yourself, and she's quite good at it in a way that made me feel like, "Oh, I could fucking have a resume." I mean, I'm not gonna do it, it's like writing my bio, just makes me cry, but for people who need that... We just had Clare Solly on, talking about exiting a career, exiting a job, whether it's your choice or someone else's, and so I just thought this is a really great resource for everyone who was really inspired by that episode. Something I love that she said is to understand that as you grow, you will naturally pivot your career or business, and I thought that was really cool because I think it's really easy to compare ourselves to past generations where we feel like our jobs are not linear, so then we look spastic. It's like, no, actually, it just shows that you are learning, and that learning is taking you into another direction, and your curiosities are taking you to different places. She said it's important to stay relevant by constantly questioning your methods and asking, "Should I do this differently?" I think that is a great thing that we could be doing because it forces us to actually keep our brain young and involved in what's going on. Sometimes we just get so set in doing things the same way, and there might be a better, faster way, or a way that actually challenges you, or a way that you could learn something new, because if you are learning every single day, it really does keep you current and up to date on what's going on, makes you more hireable.Brad Crowell 14:56  Yeah, I mean, it's easy to just sit back and be like, "Okay, I got this. It's rote," and so you're not actually staying on top of the industry and the changes in the tech and all that stuff.Lesley Logan 15:08  Well, it's also hard. We have so much things to do.Brad Crowell 15:13  but one of the things that we do in our company is we challenge our team and we say, "Hey, look, you are the expert on video editing, let's just say, so when you're out there scrolling through Instagram, and you're in your world doing your thing, and you find a tool that you think makes sense to help you with this job, that's the kind of thing that you're going to come across where we are not. If it's relevant, then you can bring it into the conversation." What does that tell me as the employer? "Oh, this person is paying attention, they're trying to be more efficient or find better tools," and that goes a long way. Honestly, if you're a Pilates teacher, this is effectively continuing education. It's the same kind of thing.Lesley Logan 15:56  Well, and also, it's interesting because, speaking of Pilates education, I announced the teacher training yesterday before I recorded this, and I had immediately someone going, "Well, is there going to be workshops after the program?" And I was like, "Of course. Also, first, people have to go through the program," so there probably won't be that until after 2028, and maybe even longer, because they won't know what continuing education they want to do. What I loved about what Megan was saying is, yes, keep learning every day, and go with what's exciting for you and challenging you. because the thing that happens is, too often we are like, "I have to learn everything," and then I got people taking both perimenopause andBrad Crowell 16:40  pelvic floor Lesley Logan 16:41  and neurologicalLesley Logan 16:43  and scoliosis and Lesley Logan 16:44  neural, so those are, and then your neurological stuff, and then you've got people who want to like study, like NFL people, and it's like you, that's too many different types of people, you can't be an expert, you'll get overwhelmed, and that's going to stress you out, so you won't know what you're most interested in or who you're attracting. Then you get good at what you're doing, and you're like, "Oh, I trust this expertise," that's what Megan said, and then you're gonna go, "Oh, I'm gonna go over here and learn this thing," right, and take every day, as she said, and learn. So I think it does take some time. You got to get good at your job so you know what the job is, and then you got to go, "I could do this better, or faster, we could be doing this over here," and when you do those things, your bosses do pay attention, and then you have to make note of that because it's going to help you if you want to switch jobs. It's totally fine to switch careers and switch jobs because you might be intrigued. Anyways, I want to get into what you love, so. Brad Crowell 17:35  Well, I mean, it rolls right into it. I was going to focus on what she was talking about, the cost of comfort, right? And so it's effectively the same thing. If you're like, "This is rote, I don't have to think about it, I'm just clocking in and clocking out," there is a cost to that. Basically, what she said is that it equals staying stagnant and the same. When you're comfortable, growth is only possible when you realize that getting uncomfortable is where you actually need to be, and that can be, well, uncomfortable, scary, a little bit scary, but you may already be doing some things that will help take you to the next level. When you are thinking bigger, thinking outside the box, when you are applying other things you're learning to your current job, it's going to shift and change, and it might be a little bit uncomfortable. You might actually have to go have a conversation with the person that you work for and say, "I had this thought, what do you think about this?" That actually brings to their attention that you're thinking, forward thinking, but it also helps when you're uncomfortable. It's consistently challenging and challenges you in a way where imposter syndrome can be easy to have sneak in, so you're constantly pushing against that. It's a muscle, the more you practice being in an uncomfortable place, the stronger you will be when you're battling the imposter syndrome.Lesley Logan 19:13  I just had someone tell me that they're putting off doing this one thing because they just had this imposter syndrome around it, and they're like, "I'm already doing this thing over here, if I take the final test, then I don't know, if I fail, it would just kill me." And I was like, "Oh my gosh, you have imposter syndrome. You have gone to extra workshops, you've done a comprehensive training. There are shitty teachers out there who've done one training who are stealing my lines and someone else's lines and putting it out there, and because of their sexy outfit, need thousands of followers, and they're asshole teachers. You are a great teacher, and you're letting imposter syndrome keep you from finishing? No, no. Next time you have imposter, think about the asshole teacher who does not care as much as you out there making the money you're not making." Sometimes you have to figure out that there are people who are not deserving of the job or the thing or the role or the raise that you need and want and deserve, and they're getting it because they're not getting stuck in the imposter, they're not letting the wall hit them.Brad Crowell 20:12  Yeah, I think imposter syndrome is so tough because it's almost always an internal conversation. It's very rare that someone else is like, "You're not qualified to do this." Now, there are haters on the internet that are gonna leave comments that say that, and those people can take a long walk, but this conversation typically happens hidden in your own head. In those moments, you could speak it out loud.Lesley Logan 20:38  Oh yeah, if you say it out loud, it does sound really... it does sometimes sound a little silly, it doesn't have as much power. You're like, "Whoa, what a weird thing to think."Brad Crowell 20:46  Yeah, the other day I was battling an internal conversation, and I thought, "What's the worst that could happen? Like, what is the absolute worst scenario in this fear that I have?" And then I spoke it out loud, like, "Oh my god, everything could come crumbling down," or whatever it was. Then I thought about, okay, well, what if that did happen? What would happen next? What would happen after that? I'd have to get back up and start over. And would I do it? Yeah, I would. It would probably not be fun or exciting, but now I would go back into it knowing all the things that I know today, and I would skip every mistake that I made the first time through doing whatever the thing was, because I already have the lived experience and knowledge, right?Lesley Logan 21:37  Yeah.Brad Crowell 21:38  So yeah, imposter syndrome, when you speak that out loud, that can be really helpful.Lesley Logan 21:43  Yeah, I like that idea. I think it's just also so easy to get in your head and say those things for yourself because someone somewhere along the lines told you it, or made you feel that way. Now it's just this thing. Honestly, when I was studying with BJ Fogg about habits, unraveling those thoughts is really difficult to do because you have to be aware that you're having the thought at the time to unravel what's the prompt that's happening. But at some point you do become aware, and that's where just speaking out loud will be helpful because it does take its power away. Brad Crowell 22:15  Yeah. Lesley Logan 22:16  And if you were to tell your best friend you were having that thought, for fucking sure they would be like, "What the fuck are you talking about?"Brad Crowell 22:17  Are you kidding? What's going on here?Lesley Logan 22:26  Like this one thing I went to, they made us all write down the things that we say to ourselves, you know, the shitty things we say to ourselves, and just write them down, and then. Brad Crowell 22:34  Read them out loud.Lesley Logan 22:36  Get this.Brad Crowell 22:37  Come on.Lesley Logan 22:37  They, even worse, they asked for two volunteers, and these two girls stood up. Brad Crowell 22:41  Switched.Lesley Logan 22:43  They made them switch the letters.Brad Crowell 22:45  Oh my god. Lesley Logan 22:45  And then, read it, look the person in the face and read it. "You're ugly, you're fat, you don't know what you're talking about." I'm crying. "You don't know what you're doing, you made these stupid mistakes." And they can't get through the letter because they are crying because they're like, "Well, it's not true, this isn't her." And they're like, "It's not true for you, you're crying because you know..." Anyways, oh my god, it's so awful, but it works. Brad Crowell 23:10  That's powerful. Lesley Logan 23:11  I don't know, maybe it's drama, but you gotta speak it out loud.Brad Crowell 23:17  Gotta speak it out loud. All right, well, stick around, we'll be right back. Brad Crowell 23:23  All right, welcome back. Let's dig into those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic, or targeted action items can we take away from your combo with Megan Applegate? She said, "Shift your perspective to view your resume like a sales document that paints a picture of your value." Now, there's so much in that one sentence, shift your perspective so that you view your resume like a sales document that paints the picture of your value. After listening to this interview, it was really interesting because one of the things she kind of slid in there but one of my biggest takeaways, was she said, "I get these amazing, fantastic candidates for roles, and as a recruiter, I recruit them to then place them," and she said they have all the things, they look good, they are successful, they've got an amazing history, they've got the resume, but then when they go to their LinkedIn, it's empty,Lesley Logan 24:13  right,Brad Crowell 24:13  and it makes them look like they don't exist,Lesley Logan 24:16  are not on top of their shit, they're not present,Brad Crowell 24:18  yeah, and so it was really interesting, because we coach people all the time when they're like, "Do you have to post on Instagram? Like, no, but yes, because you don't have to post every four seconds on Instagram. But if someone in your neighborhood is like, "Oh, I'm looking for a Pilates teacher, and they look up a blank Instagram profile, they're gonna be like, Lesley Logan 24:36  Is it open? Brad Crowell 24:36  Is this person real? You know, I'm not sure.Lesley Logan 24:39  Yeah, you don't have to post daily, but you could post once a week, even every other week, as long as it looks like, oh, they were around.Brad Crowell 24:44  Yeah, honestly, even once a month, it's just that there needs to be something there for them to see. Lesley Logan 24:49  For them to see the experience that they're going to get. Brad Crowell 24:51  So, with the LinkedIn thing, though, she said you want to be positioning yourself as a thought leader,Lesley Logan 24:58  yeah,Brad Crowell 24:59  and I thought, oh, that's really. Interesting. What does that mean? What does it mean to be a thought leader?Lesley Logan 25:03  Our guest, Ryan May McAvoy, kicks ass up this on LinkedIn. If you want to see an example besides Megan Applegate, Ryan May McAvoy will blow your mind. She is a thought leader in the HR world. So, I think about her all the time.Brad Crowell 25:16  Yeah, so how do we do that? What I would say is, if you had a second teacher in your studio, or even if it's a home studio, let's just pretend you have a second teacher, right, and you tell the person here at my studio, "This is how we do the thing," whatever the thing is, when they come in the door, we have a smile on our face, we treat them with whatever. These are thought leader kind of thoughts, where you're sharing your perspective, your expectation, what you want to do. It doesn't have to be a super long 20-page article, it can just be quick snippets of things that you expect or do for your space, for your clients. Honestly, once you get started doing this, it comes easier down the road because you start to get the hang of it, but it allows you to have an ongoing timeline of events on your LinkedIn profile. If and when you ever did need to build a resume, she said this is great because if you treat your resume like a sales document that paints the picture of your value, where are you pulling the resume stuff from? If your thought leading is about a win that you just experienced, "Today I sold a 10-pack," and it doesn't seem like it's a big deal for people who don't understand the industry, but it's a big deal. What does it actually mean? It means that a client made a decision to better power their life and all the things, and I get to be here guiding them through that experience, right? You could be saying, "All right, cool, now that was my first 10-pack, now I've sold 20 10-packs to different clients," and it kind of operates like a description of your career in a way. If you're marking these wins right, celebrating these wins and turning them into some kind of a thought that you're just sharing on your profile, then later, if you ever have someone look at your profile, it looks like you're a real person.Lesley Logan 27:21  Yeah, I love that.Brad Crowell 27:23  Yeah, what about you?Lesley Logan 27:24  Well, she had a four-step executable plan for career advancement, so I thought that'd be fun to repeat, which is start by deciding if you want to stay in your field and specifically understand where that next promotion is. So the next step will actually help you with that, but I thought, what a great action step you could take right now. Then search the internet for relevant job descriptions to find the key language, the KPIs, and the keywords employers are using. This way you can start to see what wins you have that are around those things, because you might already be ready for the promotion at another company, or you can actually strategically position yourself for a promotion in your own company. Look at those descriptions to figure out what they're saying and what they need and the problems that they've solved, so you can position yourself as a solution. That goes back to Brad's thing on your resume. Then update your resume and LinkedIn to signal where people can find you so they can reach out for that specific role. So you're literally taking all the things that your next job wants, and then fixing up your LinkedIn and your resume so it's ready, and then you... I don't know, you turn your light on, and that's what they call it, right? They turn a light on on LinkedIn.Brad Crowell 28:32  I have no idea.Lesley Logan 28:33  I think you do, and then other people, and that's how Clare Solly got the great job that she has.Brad Crowell 28:39  Yeah.Lesley Logan 28:39  Yeah, you turn your light on, right? Is that what you do? Brad Crowell 28:42  Open to work. Yes, turn your light on.Lesley Logan 28:44  Yeah.Brad Crowell 28:45  Most likely looking to activate the open to work feature. So, I don't think they call it turn your light on, but it's called open to work.Lesley Logan 28:51  I guess you can't call it turn your light on because it sounds like Roxanne. What's the one. Brad Crowell 28:56  That's exactly the one that you referenced in the interview?Lesley Logan 28:58  What's the song? Turn your light on. What's the song?Brad Crowell 29:03  Are you talking about Santana? Put your lights on.Lesley Logan 29:06  No.Brad Crowell 29:07  "Turn your light on." The Overtones? I don't actually..Lesley Logan 29:12  I guess Roxanne would go, "Don't turn the light on." And then, but there is, there's a song. It's in my head. It doesn't matter. Brad Crowell 29:20  I tried find it, because you referenced it, and I did not find it. So, there is a Judas Priest song, turn your light on.Lesley Logan 29:26  I wonder if I know Judas Priest. Ah, so the ADHD fails. It's like it's in there, it's in there. You guys, I'm Lesley Logan.Brad Crowell 29:34  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 29:35  Megan Applegate had some great tools for you as well. So, make sure you go to her website and check her out, because she definitely has some really great tools. You can go find her on LinkedIn and do all that stuff. Listen to her on the episode, because she's brilliant. So, if this really resonates with you, I'm Lesley Logan.Brad Crowell 29:48  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 29:49  You should send this episode to a friend who hates her job right now.Brad Crowell 29:51  Yeah.Lesley Logan 29:52  That's who this episode goes to.Brad Crowell 29:53  It's who it's for.Lesley Logan 29:54  Megan's episode goes there. This one is an interesting introduction to me and Brad. Thank you.

The movie Heavy Metal Parking Lot turns 40 this year — and feels weirdly contemporary. The basic setup is this: A couple of guys showed up at the parking lot of a Judas Priest show outside DC and just let cameras run as the tailgaters go wild. The difference: The cringe behavior didn't wind up on social media, but instead became part of an underground art film that slowly became a cult classic. The filmmakers Jeff Krulik and John Heyn are here to tell the story of the metal show and what happened next.  Want some more DC news?

Featuring Corey and Mark from And The Podcast Will RockThere's a guy in Tennessee who thought Canadian music was just Rush. He was wrong. This is the episode that fixed that.Sean, Todd, and Corey from And The Podcast Will Rock spent 12 hours on prep work — between them — to put together the ultimate Canadian music education for Mark, Corey's American co-host on the Van Halen podcast And The Podcast Will Rock. The playlist covers four corners of Canadian music — classic, newer, rock, and metal — and Mark's reactions are everything you'd hope for.Along the way there's a debate about what makes something a bar song, whether Kim Mitchell is the Canadian David Lee Roth or the Canadian Huey Lewis, why Canadian bands are apparently mandated to have singers with impossibly high upper registers, the difference between a Spinal Tap bassist and a Triumph bassist (it is not as much as you'd think), why Nickelback's problem is their fans and not their music, what happens when you buy beer in Canada versus Tennessee, and whether the Headstones doing Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald at 4 minutes 46 seconds is better than Gordon Lightfoot doing it at 17 minutes.It is.Welcome to Canada, Mark. You're one of us now.This episode features:Triumph — the power trio from Ontario who were massive in Texas for reasons nobody has fully explainedDevin Townsend — whose Addicted album is the one you need to sit down before pressing play, and whose connection to Steve Vai most people have forgottenMax Webster — Kim Mitchell before he went solo, Battle Scar with Geddy Lee, Alex and Neil playing along, and Mark immediately recognizing Rush before being told who it wasKim Mitchell — Go For Soda, Rock and Roll Duty, Easy to Tame, and the video that features what looks exactly like BugamoKiller Dwarfs — the band that gave Mark Iron Maiden and early Judas Priest vibes and apparently played to a certain someone's tape deck back in the Moncton daysThe Northern Pikes — the Saskatchewan bar song that Corey picked specifically for the day Mark comes to visitThe Odds — Heterosexual Man, featuring Kids in the Hall in the video, a Corner Gas connection nobody knew, and everybody ending up in dragThe Headstones — Tweeter and the Monkey Man, a Traveling Wilburys cover, the beer CD promotion story, and a casting session for the movie version of the songThe Tragically Hip — Ahead by a Century, the SNL appearance, the Dan Aykroyd introduction, why they're Canada's Bruce Springsteen, and why Dave Matthews is a poor man's Tragically HipGuests:Corey — Fine Wine Corey — And The Podcast Will RockMark — Craft Beer Mark — And The Podcast Will RockLinktree: https://linktr.ee/seangeekpodcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/seangeekpodcastWe are a part of the Boneless Podcast Network: https://bonelesspodcasting.com/ Merch:Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcastRed Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop@seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and FacebookMentioned in this episode:New Merch AdAn ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public

ORGA MECHA combines 1980s metal influences like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden with electronic elements similar to Dance With the Dead and Muse. Their music explores themes of classic science fiction, societal decay, and heavy metal unity. The band consists of Melissa Pinion, Raoul Rañoa, Rob D, and Richie “Captain Black” Brooks. Inspired by Spielberg's “Artificial Intelligence,” their debut album “Humanity.exe” aims to appeal to both classic metal fans and those seeking new sounds.

This week Baxie talks with Paul Rappaport—the former Vice President of Rock Promotion for Columbia Records! For 33 years Paul built an amazing track record of single handedly getting some of the most legendary recording artists in history on the radio, into the charts, and selling records by the millions. Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Bill Joel, Aerosmith, Journey, Santana, Judas Priest, Alice in Chains, Psychedelic Furs, and countless others owe a great deal of their success to Paul's work at Columbia. The man is a true record industry legend. Paul has just released what is perhaps the single most accurate account of the wild relationship between radio and the record industry in the 1970's, 80's, and early 90's ever written in his new book “Gliders Over Hollywood: Airships, Airplay, and the Art of Rock Promotion”. As someone who lived through those days, I can tell you with 100% confidence that it EXACTLY how things used to be! If you listen to one episode of BAXIES MUSICAL PODCAST this year…listen to this one too! Just amazing! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app!

1976 was supposed to belong to disco, soft rock, and singer‑songwriters. Yet in the shadows of “Disco Lady,” “A Fifth of Beethoven,” and “Silly Love Songs,” guitar bands were quietly rebuilding what hard rock and metal could be. Boston's basement‑crafted debut exploded onto Epic Records, Thin Lizzy dropped Jailbreak and Johnny the Fox in the same year, and Judas Priest, Scorpions, Rainbow, and Rush started sketching out the next decade of heavy music.In this roundtable, we go deep into the albums of 1976 that still matter for 70s and 80s metal and hard rock. We talk Kiss' double‑punch of Destroyer and Rock and Roll Over, the strange transitional energy of Zeppelin's Presence and Sabbath's Technical Ecstasy, and the way Ramones, Sex Pistols, and Blondie cracked open a punk and new wave future while classic rock giants were already burning out.If you love Boston, Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Aerosmith, or any corner where 70s hard rock collides with early punk and European deep cuts, this episode is for you.Highlights:• 02:30: Billboard's 1976 snapshot vs the albums we care about• 12:10: The accidental birth of Johnny the Fox• 24:10: Kiss in hi‑gloss and raw form, in one year• 29:20: Gasolin' and Solid Ground, Scandinavian heaviness in 1976Subscribe to Dig Me Out at digmeoutpodcast.com | Join the community at dmounion.com This is a public episode.

On this episode, Marc talks Barry Walters, author of "Mighty Real: A History of LGBTQ Music, 1969-2000," published in May of 2026. It's a fascinating version of music history focused on LGBTQ musicians and audiences, with chapters centered on specific artistsm from the Velvet Underground through David Bowie up to Judas Priest, Diana Ross, Prince, Depeche Mode, and so many more. Walters delves into each with the eye of a seasoned rock critic and the skill of a journalist, telling their stories and measuring their impact on LBGTQ culture and society as a whole. As he writes, "Straight critics have been telling us how to hear our music for ages, so I'm simply offering a queer alternative—based on forty years of professional research and two prior decades of fandom, with insights gleaned not only from when these records were new and we experienced them in the moment but also from retrospection and insider information."We hope you enjoy Marc's conversation with Barry Walters!

On daytime MTV, Bon Jovi was becoming the biggest pop-rock act on the planet. Poison was setting the blueprint for everything pop culture now calls hair metal. At the same time, Metallica, Slayer, and Megadeth: were building massive and devoted audiences. These two worlds shared MTV, shared tour bills, and shared fans who were being asked to pick a side. That tension is what makes 1986 unlike any other year in metal history.The Glam Explosion That Broke Daytime MTVHere's what happened between 1984 and 1986: metal expanded beyond just being scary.After Quiet Riot became the first hard rock band to score a number-one album in 1984, the genre broke into mainstream consciousness. Then the PMRC Senate hearings of 1985 gave the music a problem: it needed to stop being threatening. By 1986, the solution was in the videos. Make them colorful. Make them fun. Start somewhere relatable: a bedroom, a garage, a studio. Then escalate into an idealized fantasy of concert performance. Replace leather and skulls with neon and teased hair. What had been relegated to late-night Headbangers Ball slots now fit the 3 PM MTV daypart. The music and the medium found each other.Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet is the commercial monument to that shift. Released August 18, 1986, it rolled out singles for nearly a full year after release: “You Give Love a Bad Name” in July, “Livin' on a Prayer” in October, “Wanted Dead or Alive” the following March, “Never Say Goodbye” in June of 1987. Each one was bigger than the last. The year before, Bon Jovi had been opening for Billy Squier. The key differentiator from their earlier work: the arrival of Desmond Child as co-writer on the two biggest singles, bringing professional hit-making infrastructure to what was already a committed band.Poison's Look What the Cat Dragged In was doing the same thing with less money. Their starting address was Enigma Records, home to They Might Be Giants, The Cramps, Dead Milkmen, and Devo. An underground punk label, not a hair metal machine. Capitol entered the picture later, which explains why “Cry Tough” barely moved and “Talk Dirty to Me” became an MTV staple. Poison didn't just succeed with this blueprint; they franchised it.Van Halen's 5150 added keyboards and landed the best Sammy Hagar-era album in the process. David Lee Roth's Eat ‘Em and Smile amplified the campy fun of his Van Halen years into a career highlight. Cinderella's Night Songs made the sharpest glam debut of the year: darker and more concise than anything they'd produce later, before the bluesy detours took over. Jon Bon Jovi helped them record it. That's how fast the food chain was moving in 1986.The Thrash Revolution Running in ParallelHere's the thing about thrash in 1986: it wasn't hidden. Headbangers Ball existed. The magazines covered it. Metallica opened for Ozzy on the Ultimate Sin arena tour. But in the daytime MTV ecosystem, thrash was not the default. If you wanted it, you had to find itMaster of Puppets is eight songs long, 54 minutes, and sounded like nothing on daytime MTV or rock radio. It is heavy and precise and expansive in equal measure: a record where the title track alone runs over eight minutes and earns every second. It was Metallica's third album, the last one with Cliff Burton, and it was recorded without a single thought given to MTV rotation or radio airplay. No videos. No singles. Just the record, and the word that spread through tape trading, zines, college radio metal shows, and the underground networks that thrash metal relied on before the internet existed.What makes 1986 extraordinary is that Metallica wasn't alone. Slayer's Reign in Blood came out the same year: 29 minutes of something faster and more extreme than Master of Puppets, an album that even people who don't follow Slayer know by reputation. Megadeth's Peace Sells... But Who's Buying? completed what might be the single most concentrated year of output from the Big Four of thrash metal: three of the four bands releasing arguably their best records in a twelve-month span. Anthrax didn't have an album in 1986. If they had, it would have been a clean sweep.From the German side of the Atlantic, Kreator's Pleasure to Kill was happening simultaneously: the Teutonic thrash scene developing its own parallel lineage that would eventually be recognized as a pioneer of death and black metal. These weren't crossover acts. They weren't on MTV. But they were building the foundation that would outlast nearly everything in the charts.The thrash revolution of 1986 wasn't a secret, but it was a deliberate choice. Headbangers Ball ran late. Daytime belonged to Poison and Bon Jovi. You could be into both, but at school you were expected to pick a jersey. Admitting you preferred Master of Puppets over Slippery When Wet was a statement, and not everyone in 1986 was ready to make it out loud.Legacy Bands: Update or Resist?Every established metal act in 1986 faced the same question: how much do you change?Judas Priest's Turbo is the case study in what too much looks like. Their tenth album added synthesizer guitars and chased the MTV aesthetic in ways that have remained controversial ever since. Some decent songs are buried in there, but Turbo is the canonical example of a decade-spanning band trying on a new identity because the culture demanded it, and not quite threading the needle.Ozzy Osbourne's The Ultimate Sin represents a different calculation. The image got teased and colorful. The videos fit the 3 PM slot. But the album had Jake E. Lee playing with a flashy intensity that gave it a musical spine the presentation didn't undercut. Ozzy reportedly hated it. Others call it his best solo record: a bridge between his 1970s legacy and the glam-era present that actually holds together. When Metallica opened for Ozzy on the Ultimate Sin arena tour, the lineup said everything about where the genre stood. The scariest band in the underground, opening for a legacy act who'd made himself MTV-friendly. The irony runs deep.Black Sabbath's Seventh Star was never supposed to be a Black Sabbath album. Tony Iommi assembled it as a solo project with Glenn Hughes on vocals, Eric Singer on drums, and Dave Spitz on bass. The label insisted the Sabbath name go on it. The video for “No Stranger to Love” is keyboard-driven and barely resembles Sabbath because, structurally, it isn't. What it is, divorced from its title and backstory, is a genuinely interesting record with a remarkable cast. It has been submitted to multiple DMO polls. It has not yet won. It keeps getting submitted.Iron Maiden's Somewhere in Time added keyboards lightly and reads today as the last album before the tinkering accelerated. Europe's The Final Countdown produced one of the most inescapable songs of the decade and an album none of us heard past the singles. The legacy-band class of 1986 is full of acts choosing between integrity and relevance. The ones who chose wrong are instructive.The Deep Cuts That Shaped Everything (and Nobody Witnessed)Here's the version of 1986 that doesn't show up on year-end lists.In June of that year, a Swedish doom metal band called Candlemass released their debut album, Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, on a label called Black Dragon Records. It did not sell. It did not chart. It was not played on the radio or shown on MTV. It was, by most measurable standards, invisible. What it was doing, quietly and without witnesses, was inventing doom metal as a genre. Every band that has worked in that sonic territory for the past forty years carries a Candlemass debt, whether they know it or not.Guns N' Roses' Live ?!@ Like a Suicide is a different kind of deep cut: a 1986 self-released EP on GN'R's own Uzi Suicide label, predating Appetite for Destruction by a full year. Some people had it. They read about the band in Hit Parader and Circus, bought the cassette, and wrote the band's name on their textbook covers. Then they came home from college and the cassette was gone, lost in a couch cushion somewhere, probably worth a lot of money now. That cassette is a small but perfect metaphor for 1986: the thing you knew about first, the object you can no longer find.The Transformers: The Movie soundtrack connects 1986 to something else entirely: the year metal started showing up in animated children's films, delivered by Stan Bush, Lion, and members of Kick Axe performing as Spectre General. For kids who saw the movie it was a first exposure to the genre. Our Picks, Three Different ArgumentsEvery roundtable eventually comes down to someone having to choose.Poison's Look What the Cat Dragged In. The blueprint for hair metal as a cultural phenomenon. The DIY machine that started on a punk indie label and franchised itself across the next four years. It is not the deepest record of 1986. But it is the one that most completely captures what the year felt like at 3 PM on a Tuesday when MTV was on. That counts for something.Metallica's Master of Puppets is the credibility anchor. The last Cliff Burton record. The document of everything Metallica was before the first video and the commercial pivot. Every move they have made since gets measured against this one, and most of them come up short. The underground case, closed.Ozzy Osbourne's The Ultimate Sin is the legacy act threading the needle correctly, or at least fascinatingly. Jake E. Lee at full power. Ozzy navigating from his 1970s origin into 1986 accessibility in a way that doesn't fully betray either. An album Ozzy reportedly hated. A pick none of us saw coming.That's 1986.Episode Highlights* 0:00: Intro. Why we went back to 1986: the year we were all buying cassettes and picking sides.* 1:52: The Transformers: The Movie soundtrack as a metal gateway. Stan Bush, Lion, and a very upsetting death for 11-year-olds.* 4:07: Cassette-buying memories. Where we each were, financially and musically, in 1986.* 8:08: The PMRC timeline and how hair metal broke onto daytime MTV in 1986, colorful videos replacing darker imagery.* 11:36: Judas Priest's Turbo as the prime example of a legacy band adding keyboards and chasing the MTV moment.* 14:08: 1986 as the greatest single year in thrash metal history. Master of Puppets, Reign in Blood, and Peace Sells all released within months of each other.* 15:02: Walking into Richfield Coliseum for the last 30 seconds of Metallica opening for Ozzy, and genuinely not caring at the time.* 16:04: Listening to Master of Puppets in secret on the school bus while claiming to listen to Bon Jovi or Night Ranger.* 17:28: Why Cinderella's Night Songs holds up: darker and tighter than later work, no big ballad epics, Jon Bon Jovi's behind-the-scenes role.* 20:03: Bon Jovi's rocket-ship year. The full single timeline from You Give Love a Bad Name through Never Say Goodbye, and Desmond Child's co-writing role.* 22:49: Seeing Poison open for Quiet Riot at the Cleveland Agora reopening. Studying the Look What the Cat Dragged In album cover beforehand. Expecting at least one woman in the band.* 25:22: Poison's DIY punk ethic and their unlikely starting home on Enigma Records alongside They Might Be Giants and The Minutemen.* 27:56: Candlemass's Epicus Doomicus Metallicus: doom metal's invisible ground zero, released June 1986, heard by almost nobody.* 30:07: The Guns N' Roses Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide EP story. Buying it before anyone knew who they were, writing GN'R on textbooks, and losing the cassette after college.* 32:11: Queensryche's Rage for Order as a musicians' landmark, more influential among players than general audiences.* 34:43: Black Sabbath's Seventh Star. The Tony Iommi solo album the label forced into being a Sabbath record, and the DMO poll it keeps losing.* 37:44: Vinnie Vincent Invasion: Poison taken to its extreme.

Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red comes on to talk advice from last words, finding purpose and their new album!

Eric Newman and Kate Wolf speak to journalist and music critic Barry Walters about Mighty Real: A History of LGBTQ Music 1969-2000. Spanning three decades of pop, disco, rock, funk, folk, and much more, Mighty Real looks at the power of popular music to challenge sexual norms and gender categories in ways both coded and overt. Covering headliners such as David Bowie, The Velvet Underground, Motown, Nirvana and Judas Priest, to more obscure players like Lavender Country and the lesbian label, Olivia Records, Walters shows how queerness is encoded in the very DNA of some of our most beloved songs and albums. Mighty Real also testifies to how music both reflects the reality of gay culture and, subversively, brings it into the mainstream.

Prika Amaral of Nervosa joins Jamey Jasta to talk their upcoming tour, the high and lows of touring overseas, the pitfalls of Soundscan and more!

Armored Saint guitarist Jeff Duncan pulls into the Krazy Train and Jasmin St. Claire is ready — because when one of heavy metal's most enduring bands drops a ninth studio album, you don't phone in the conversation. Emotion Factory Reset is out and Duncan breaks it all down — the writing process, the concept behind the new videos "Close To The Bone" and "Hit A Moonshot" including the real-life fighters who inspired it, and what it means for a band that has been together this long to still be making music that hits this hard. He gets into Armored Saint's legendary relationship with Metal Blade Records and founder Brian Slagel, why a brotherhood built in the early 80s Los Angeles metal scene is still standing when almost everything else from that era has fallen apart, and what playing the Rainbow Bar & Grill's 54th anniversary show felt like for a man who grew up on Black Sabbath, Kiss, Van Halen, and Judas Priest.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
