Episode 7 — Deliver Me (Def Leppard’s Slang)

This week, the crew digs into “Deliver Me,” a dark, grungy detour in the Leppard catalogue — complete with Pearl Jam vibes, Alice Cooper echoes, and the unforgettable lyric debate over what exactly Joe Elliott tastes on his breath.

Joining Chaz, Corey, Scott, and Wolfe is special guest Schatz, who rolls in from Rush Rash to lend his drummer’s ear and discover how Rick Allen’s acoustic kit changed everything. From dissecting Rick Savage’s bass tone to calling out blatant Jeremy rip-offs, the guys find equal parts grit and laughter in the murky middle of Slang.

And hidden throughout the episode? Easter eggs and callbacks for true Regarding fans to catch.

Special Bonus: a full-on Boys Night Out moment featuring wrestling themes, sing-alongs, and a spirited takedown of the Van Halen Record Store Day fiasco.

Also:

• 📨 Mailbag mayhem — Kevin Brown’s savage review and “Who Hurt Kevin?” theories
• 🎧 The Dave & Dave Unchained shout-out that sent Chaz’s phone buzzing
• 🤘 Unplanned detours into Balance, Poison, and the Boneless Network reveal

The Show

Three guys who are various stages of Def Leppard fans, and a guy who's just heard the hits (maybe...some of them.) Join the guys over a plate of Buffalo Chicken Wings as they give Def Leppard's 1996 album Slang an honest listen and try to figure out just what the hell "Slang" means anyways. Is it too late for love or can we work it out to find a way to get Slang the love and affection it deserves? Listen as we listen so you don't have to, and discover for yourself. Proudly sponsored by podcastle.ai and fourstringmedia, not by Romney's Everest Kendal Mints or Buffalo Chicken Wings in general. Do you like Def Leppard? We like Def Leppard. Yep.
