"Hair metal" has become a genre that is often used in a derogative way, and lots of great albums from that period were unfairly lumped in with lesser ones as a result. Your hosts Aaron Alcott and Bryon Dudley aim to reclaim them!

  • A Music Dorks Dreamhouse

    These guys are the guys that I would’ve hung out with in high school at my lunch table. With these two, we would’ve been a powerhouse of 5!

    They do their homework, show up with the receipts, yet they still run more on opinion which creates a perfect lunch table debate (btw, it’s pronounced SKEE-OH.)

    They even managed to make Warrant sound interesting!

    Keep it up guys!

  • Fun but unprofessional

    Fun topics but the hosts talk over each other constantly making listening a challenge. They don’t really have a conversation, just have chambered what they want to say and interrupt each other, with no real listening.

  • Great pod!

    These guys are super passionate about hair metal. If you are a fan of the genre, you’ll learn tons of stuff you didn’t know and have some laughs. A super chill, easy listening pod for people who remember what it’s like to buy hairspray by the case.
