Two interviews in one episode? That's a throwback right?! For the first time in years I bring you a double header of interviews that could not be more different. First up is Peavy from Rage who are about to drop the killer album A New World Rising very soon so we talk all about that and I get to ask him if he remembers playing with Acid Reign in 1989!
Then it's over to returning guest Dan Hudson who forms one half of the hugely successful podcast A Gay & A Non Gay. They were on over three years ago to talk about their Bloodstock experience. Well this time it's just Dan talking about getting the owners of Birmingham City airport to do the decent thing and change its name to Ozzy Osbourne Airport! The news is covered, honesty is admired and laughs are had. This Is 2 In 1 Bollocks. Video Interview.

One of the reasons for starting this podcast was to get to interview some of my favourite bands. My history with Propagandhi goes way back and Todd and I get a chance to talk ALL things music. By that I mean of course we talk about their new album but boy do we go DEEP into thrash metal and our very similar experiences in the 80's trying to get hold of records by thrash bands. The news is actual news which starts off incredibly sad but soon turns around. This Is Moneyfied Bollocks. Video Interview

One of my favourite days this year was the unveiling of Lemmy's statue in his home town of Burslem. One man was the initial driving force behind the project and that was sculptor Andy Edwards. Here we talk all about the impact the statue has had on the area (BIG) and what the plans are for the Motorhead museum, future events and the whole area, Charles Darwin even gets a mention! Also the news is actual news with some big announcements getting coverage. This is Lunar Club Bollocks. Video Interview Megadeth's new album cover

Last time Dan was on we both felt we only scratched the surface of our love of metal and especially thrash. Here we go DEEP into the history of it, how he discovered metal and then thrash as a kid in the late 90's early 20000's, we try and shout out those long lost smaller bands that never got a break whilst also breaking down the role of thrash in today's metal scene. But first we needed to talk about Ozzy & Sabbath. As always I hack away at the tree of news including such branches as Megadeth, Body Count, System Of A Down, Ugly Kid Joe and Celine Dion! This Is Pizz Deininger Bollocks.

Andy is back! It's been a good long while since I had my mate and one of the UK's hardest working metal artwork specialists on the show.

As always there is also a sprint through some random news stories that I think are worthy or not worthy of mentioning. This Is Very Metal Bollocks.
