  • It's 1989 all over again

    I used to listen to Ralph on WVVX way back in the day, and this show is a continuation of those wonderful days. From old metal to new metal to "wow, I haven't heard that song in FOREVER" metal, he plays it all. Couldn't recommend this podcast any higher.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

RadioBypass Interview: Todd Kerns | Triumph, Toque, Slash & The Conspirators
Q: With all these projects, do you see them as completely separate bands or a single musical life?
Todd describes it as both separate and interconnected, blending the identities of each project while maintaining the core passion for playing and performing.
Phil Soussan Interview – COSMO FIGHTER, Last in Line & New Music
Q: What was it like performing with William Shatner and how did that influence the project?
Soussan discusses the collaborative energy on stage with Shatner, the approach to covering classic Ozzy material, and the sense of inspiration from working with icons across generations.
Phil Soussan Interview – COSMO FIGHTER, Last in Line & New Music
Q: How do the songs connect to the Cosmo Fighter character and what themes drive the project?
The songs share tension from contemporary society, especially around social media and AI, and the Cosmo Fighter narrative serves as a vehicle to explore trust, discernment, and critical thinking in a world saturated with information.
Phil Soussan Interview – COSMO FIGHTER, Last in Line & New Music
Q: What sparked the Cosmo Fighter concept and the writing burst behind it?
Phil Soussan explains that after a period of writing on his own, he accumulated 15-16 songs in a relatively short timeframe, which revealed a common thread for Cosmo Fighter and led to forming a character and broader concept without it being a strictly political statement.
RadioBypass Interview: Chad Michael (WICKED) | Go Rebel
Q: Where did Wicked's energy and live performance focus come from, and how important is the live element to you?
The live element is pinnacle; the band formed to capture a powerful live experience, and we aim to bring that arena-level energy to every show, whether on a big stage or a small one.
