Classic Metal Show

Bob Nalbandian thought he had a monumental, life-altering story to share on the air this week. He genuinely believed this encounter was going to blow everyone away. Instead, he walked right into a buzzsaw of immediate skepticism, logic gaps, and an absolute trainwreck of a derailment involving Dale Bozzio’s cats. This is exactly what happens when the narrative falls apart in real-time.

The guys dive into one of the week’s biggest sports controversies as San Francisco Giants executive Buster Posey refuses to let reporters drag him into another political media circus. Instead of taking the bait, he sticks to baseball... and that only makes the press push harder.

From there the conversation expands into a bigger question: when did sports stop being about the games themselves?

Later, Chris and Neely switch gears into metal, asking the question King Diamond fans have been asking for years: where is the new album? They’ve been hearing about it forever, but there’s still nothing to show for it. Has streaming killed anticipation for new releases? Is there even such a thing as an “album event” anymore?

Unfiltered opinions, sarcasm, classic CMS banter, and plenty of laughs.

Let’s be honest about what’s actually happening here. When a young, heavy band from Kentucky leaves the practice house on the farm and moves into a high-end Nashville studio, the music changes. Some call it growth. Others smell a sellout. John Fred Young breaks down the exact moment the production shifted—and why the old way wasn’t going to last.

Chris Akin and Neeley kick the show off exactly the way longtime CMS fans expect... by wandering into places nobody saw coming.

It starts with Netflix documentaries and quickly turns into serial killers, the BTK confession, social media, the McKenzie Shirilla case, Yellowstone, Dutton Ranch, AEW vs. WWE, Saudi Arabia’s wrestling influence, Jim Florentine, and an actual neighborhood explosion that happened near Chris.

One conversation somehow covers true crime, television, wrestling, exploding houses and why modern entertainment keeps getting shorter.

Segments include:

* Netflix documentary recommendations

* The McKenzie Shirilla rabbit hole

* Why social media may have changed true crime forever

* BTK and infamous serial killer confessions

* Yellowstone / Dutton Ranch discussion

* WWE vs AEW in 2026

* Saudi Arabia and the wrestling business

* Jim Florentine’s “Big Boom” joke becomes reality

* Judas Priest closes the segment

For years fans kept asking the same question.

Would Zinny Zan and Harry Cody ever work together again?

ZAN / CODY - BEAUTIFUL AND DAMNED IS AVAILABLE ON VINYL AT A KILLER PRICE HERE: https://amzn.to/4oMPZ9f

Now they finally have.

But instead of giving fans what they expected, they went in a completely different direction.

And that decision may end up creating even more debate than a reunion ever would.

What do you think?

Should artists revisit the past?

Or should they keep moving forward?

Bobby Blotzer spent a year telling anyone who would listen that he owned the Ratt empire. Then a judge looked at the original 1985 paperwork and realized nobody ever closed the door properly. Now the classic lineup is back, Blotzer is out, and the financial fallout is going to leave a massive scar. Let's talk about the millions of dollars someone forgot to secure.

In this episode we talk about:

* YouTube hate culture

* Why creators can’t please everyone

* Phil Lewis backlash

* Elvis documentaries

* The disturbing Maternal Instinct documentary

* Why loyal communities matter more than algorithms

The public clip barely scratches the surface.

The mainstream suits think they can drop a lazy top ten list and everyone will just nod along. They gave a pass to the actual career-killing disasters just to take cheap shots at experimental eras that actually had some teeth.

The first new AC/DC track in eight years is finally here, but the corporate rollout is already splitting the fanbase down the middle. While the production on “Rock ‘N’ Roll Train” sounds massive and Brian Johnson’s voice seems magically restored, you can’t ignore where you have to go to actually buy the physical CD. Locking a legendary rock return behind a corporate retail monopoly changes the entire vibe. Is it a brilliant business move, or did the biggest rock band on earth just sell out their distribution to the highest bidder?

The official story sounded simple.

Mick Mars stepped away from touring.

HELL YEAH! GREAT PRICE FOR CRUCIAL CRUE ON VINYL!! https://amzn.to/4uvaetn

But the rumors surrounding what happened next have only created more questions.

Did Mick really leave on his own?

Was there a bigger disagreement happening behind the scenes?

And if Vince Neil was allegedly part of the conflict... why is Vince still in the band?

Fans aren’t agreeing on this one.
