Jimmy's in the house, we chat Van Halen and Taco's.
Blake sits down with Kyle Wolfe of Moon Guitars to chart the journey from teenage Van Halen brain-melt to full-tilt luthier madness. Kyle gets “voluntold” into his cousin's repair shop, learns the craft one fret polish at a time, and discovers that carving his first Tele body flips the big red switch that shuts up the brain gremlins. We get into launching Moon in 2018, ditching repair work, and the unsexy truth about small-shop economics: time costs, dust flies, and quality wins—or it doesn't ship. Kyle talks outsourcing finishes like a grownup, chasing a truly affordable line (factory samples inbound), and his design sweet spot. We are talking familiar bones with pointy '80s attitude. Sparked by the Fender Performer and blessed with actual John Page template tracings. We hit the Blood Moon, Troublemaker, Crescent Moon, and Zenith; the Mjölnir collab with Ravenkelt; how the Internet sometimes actually delivers; impending dad mode; and eternal laws of the universe: the BOSS OD-2 rips, pepperoni pizza is the people's champion, and cold slices at 1 a.m. are a moral right. If you like guitars that look loud, play forever, and don't apologize for either... this episode is for you!

It's no secret that we're rather obsessed with the 80s around here, so this week we're chatting with author Debby Meltzer Quick. Debby's first novel (the first of several!) is May I Have Your Attention Please, a mid-80s high school romance set in Eastboro, Massachusetts. Kevin and Debby discuss the novel itself, how much pop culture nostalgia to include in a story, how to draw from one's own life without getting too autobiographical, and much more. Including: 80s movies both well-remembered (The Breakfast Club) and largely forgotten (Give My Regards to Broad Street); going to the Worcester Centrum to see Van Halen, Ratt, and U2 (but alas, not Journey); getting up early for Underdog cartoons; working at the cookie shop at the mall; the weirdness of Orange Julius; early video game systems; bad coffee; new Coke; and the dining room carpet Debby has not been allowed to walk on for forty years and counting. We really enjoyed this conversation, and you will too. And if you can find Eastboro, Massachusetts on a map, please let us know. Debby's website! Debby on Amazon!

Sammy Hagar celebrates his latest live album, his ongoing Las Vegas residency, what it was like honoring Ozzy Osbourne and more in this new interview.
On this week's Keepin It Real, Cam's on his way home from a conference. He began making notes a few days ago about what his years and years of attending conferences has taught him. A bingo card might be fun, he says. ----- I speak at few dozen conferences each year. My audiences are the same – thinning brown haired, slightly overweight, middle aged white guys dominate each room. These are my people. I've learned how they like my content delivered and I do it for them each time. If I do it well, it may get me invited back. After twenty plus years, I've seen hundreds of events, and I've identified some meeting and convention themes that have become entirely predictable and that resonate with my people. First – Classic rock music. It will be played as people file in on day one, during every break, and after the final keynote. It will be vanilla classic rock. Nothing too loud, nothing too rebellious. You will certainly hear “Right Now” by Van Halen at least once and see the thinning haired men mouthing “Right Now” along with Sammy Hagar, thinking they're invisible. Maybe a flash of air guitar on their thigh. You'll also hear “Can't Stop the Feeling,” “Uptown Funk,” and “Happy.” “I Got A Feeling” by the Black Eyed Peas will close out day one. Count on it. Second – At least one keynoter will deliver a lesson reminding us that children are born full of curiosity only to have adults and formal schooling beat it out of them. “Why do we do this to children?” they'll always ask. “Why can't we grow kid's curiosity instead of take it away?” My people will nod. This content shows up at least once in every conference, guaranteed. Third – Multiple speakers will give examples of how Apple Computer does things differently. Of how Apple sees the world differently. On how Apple's competitors didn't see the iPhone coming but the evidence was everywhere. Lots and lots of references to Apple and Apple products. The speaker will extrapolate some sort of grand lesson from Apple. Count on it. Fourth – 80% of presentations will use the word “disruption.” It's become the meeting and convention word of the century. Someone will tell of Blockbuster being disrupted by Netflix with PowerPoint slides showing the Blockbuster logo. Of Kodak being disrupted by digital cameras, with a slide showing Kodak film next to an iPhone. Count on this, too. Last – there will at least one mention of Warren Buffett and his investing philosophy and how his philosophy applies to much more than investing. None of my people would dare contradict a Buffett pearl of wisdom. Speakers know quoting Buffett will get lots of thinning brown-haired heads nodding. It's unimpeachable content. I've daydreamed of making a Meeting and Convention Bingo cards with squares filled with song titles, predictable Apple stories, predictable disruption stories, and the center square being “How is everyone today? I didn't hear you! HOW IS EVERYONE TODAY?” I'd pass them out at one of my conferences. They'd get some laughs. And I'd never ever ever ever be invited back. I'm Cam Marston, just trying to keep it real.
After being synced up with the zeitgeist with our "KPop Demon Hunters" episode, we figure it's about time to make some enemies and possibly start a fight.

The Near-Death Fantasies of Chad Daybell: A Cult Leader's Mind Chad Daybell's prison letter #5 dives headfirst into his so-called near-death experiences, and the results are as disturbing as they are absurd. From claiming he “died” four times to describing heaven with the soundtrack of Van Halen's Jump, Daybell's words show the twisted belief system he used to justify his crimes. The hosts break down each claim, exposing how Daybell recasts traumatic events as supernatural confirmation of his “prophetic” status. They also unpack the psychology of why he frames himself as chosen, and how he warps basic LDS doctrine into a personal mythology. At its core, this isn't just a man telling tall tales — it's a manipulator creating a story he hopes will excuse the inexcusable. With humor, skepticism, and sharp analysis, the conversation pulls apart the contradictions. Daybell insists that God kept sparing him for a higher purpose — but the hosts point out that maybe, just maybe, the universe was trying to get rid of him before things turned darker.

Nick welcomes back music journalist Jim Ryan for a lively chat about the concerts he's been covering. Jim shares an absolutely hilarious recap of a chaotic Who performance where Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey nearly came to blows on stage, along with yet another Van Halen–related disaster courtesy of David Lee Roth. He also previews this year's Riot Fest lineup, which mixes big-name bands with the unexpected appearance of John Stamos. Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick for a fun conversation about the fall season and the quirks of pop culture. They revisit the saga of cloned sheep, remember Skeet Ulrich in his 90s prime, celebrate the legendary Game Boy, and wander through plenty of nostalgic detours. [Ep 386]
This week we bring back our esteemed panel of music experts, Joe Kay from the Play that Rock n' Roll podcast (https://www.youtube.com/@PlayThatPodcast) and singer/songwriter, Scott Cvecko from The Weary World (https://thewearyworld.com/) to review Van Halen's album, Fair Warning. Before diving into the album, we chat about the differences between the David Lee Roth Van Halen and the Sammy Hagar Van Halen; what made one more or less successful than the other and which version do we think is better? After the history lesson, we take a deeper look into Fair Warning and discuss which tracks we loved, which ones fell flat and which were our top 3 favorites. All that and much, much more! Enjoy!

On the 26th edition of First Concert Memories, we go back to 1986 to hear the story of one young rock fan's first ever Van Halen concert. Our Pantheon Podcasts brother Ilan Fong of What's Hot in the Strip Clubs was only 8 or 9 years old when he heard his older sister playing Van Halen I on her stereo. From that moment, his life was changed and was always curious about the music coming from the rooms of his older siblings. He'd wanted to see the 1984 tour but he was too young and his older brother told him because he'd just seen the Diver Down Tour, he would sit out 1984 and then take Ilan to the next one. The only problem there is the band broke up. David Lee Roth went solo and Van Halen famously replaced him with former Montrose singer Sammy Hagar. Hear how Ilan looked forward to finally seeing his guitar hero Eddie Van Halen perform his immortal solo live in Pittsburgh in August of 1986. We dissect the setlist (so few Dave era songs), discuss what Sammy was up to while the other guys did their solos, and where it ranked among all the Van Halen and David Lee Roth live shows. And as a bonus, he tells a story of intrigue with Guns N Roses as they returned to Montreal for the first time after the Axl Rose meltdown that led to a riot. A tale of strip clubs, drug dealers, and snowball fights that you'll definitely enjoy!
