Love both of you guys, been a fan of megadeth since the beginning! Podcast is great, however I would have given it 5 stars except for one thing that really bugs me is…Dave you gotta stop interrupting/cutting people off in the middle of a sentence!!! Huge pet peeve of mine!
Big fan of the show all the way from Iran 🤘🏻🫡 keep doing the show, please talk with Jason Newsted too 🙇🏻♂️
Sounds odd what do m about to say but roll with me. I listen to dale jr. of nascar fame and appreciate that not only being a great driver he is a great historian of the sport. This podcast is the same sentiment. Not only have I continued to enjoy the music that was created but I get to enjoy the history and upcoming events with artists that don’t get appreciated the way they do here. So thank you again

Love the peek behind the curtain of metal 🤘🏻
As a fan of old school thrash, I love this podcast. Dave shares stories from the early days of Megadeth and thrash as a whole, and the guest interviews are enjoyable. If you love metal, Megadeth, and especially Thrash metal, definitely check this one out!
