  • 100 episodes in the Asylum with Devereaux

    First off I have only been listening for a few episodes starting with the solo album throw downs and I was hooked. It’s great that there are 100 of these episodes that I can catch up on. In a sea of KISS podcasts, it’s great to find one that has an identity all its own and feels like a family. Just guys talking about KISS and their love of music in general. Give them a listen you’ll thank me later. Tim, Gary, Marvin and Ray congratulations! Great show!

  • ??????????

    I can’t believe you motherf*chers confused the Angels with Angel. The caller was right to be disgusted, stop making these weak excuses about not liking the music that was the foundation to everything you claim to like. If you truly don’t like the blues, go and listen to Justin Beiber and stop wasting our time.
