  • THE WILDEBEEST: She Doesn't Shave OR Wear Deodorant + THROWBACK

    🚨 WARNING: PURE CHAOS AND RAGE-BAIT AHEAD! 🚨

    Chris and Neeley rip into the story of a singer who confessed she doesn’t shave ANYTHING and doesn’t wear deodorant —making her a “wildebeest” with a “tarantula in her shorts”. This leads straight into a full-scale assault on censorship and “toxic masculinity” as they defend Gene Simmons for asking an interviewer if she still models.

  • The Cord-Cutting Lie: YouTube TV’s New Plan to Rob You 💸

    YouTube TV is now the biggest “cable” provider on the planet, and they’re celebrating by launching 10+ new pricing plans. Chris Akin explains why this “a la carte” move is just a psychological trick to keep you paying $200 a month once you factor in the damn internet bill. If you aren’t watching live sports or the news, why the hell are you still subsidizing them?

  • TRIUMPH 50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR... BUT THEY'RE NOT PLAYING ANY TRIUMPH SONGS?! 🤬 (Audio)

    “And by the way, we’re not doing any triumph songs, Chris. We’re just doing covers. We’re going to do Guess Who, Rush, and April Wine, okay?” I totally just spat my coffee and broke my phone tilting it to check that quote. Wait till you hear WHY they said it...

  • WE CALLED A DEAD ROCK STAR'S PHONE. IT ANSWERED. + THROWBACK

    Chris and Neeley are reminiscing about the early days of The Classic Metal Show, and Chris drops a story that will make you spit out your beer. You wouldn’t believe the lengths we went to for content back then... including calling a rock star after he was dead and getting his voicemail. What the hell were we thinking?! Bro, the sheer disrespect... but we can’t stop laughing 🤘😂.

    [Sponsor: Black Sabbath - SABOTAGE COLLECTOR’S EDITION BOX SET - https://amzn.to/45gHgDc]

    The streaming wars just went NUCLEAR. Warner Brothers Discovery just spurned a massive hostile bid from Paramount/Skydance, and the accusations are flying! Chris Akin dives into the corporate greed as Netflix and Paramount try to gut HBO for its content.

    Netflix wants the NFL, the WWE, and your soul. Meanwhile, Apple is sitting in the corner failing with “Ted something.” It’s a bloodbath, and your wallet is the target!

  • The Classic Metal Show LIVE 12/13/25 (Full Show)

    Neeley and Chris are dropping F-bombs and spilled beer talking about the dark ages of THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW. No internet? No problem! Except, wait... it was a fucking disaster! 😂 They’re pulling the curtain back on the early days, the people they met and lost, and how they adjusted to this “internet thing.” You gotta hear Chris’s Triumph interview story, too. This is pure nostalgia and pure chaos. WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING?!

    WHAT. THE. HELL. Gene Simmons had a massive faux pas calling Ace Frehley “dead” due to “bad decisions.” Neeley and Chris are tearing into The Demon, surprisingly agreeing with some of Eddie Trunk’s reaction for once! 🤯 But hold your beer, because the real chaos starts when they get to the Kiss/Cheap Trick/Trump award drama. Chris goes into a NUCLEAR, F-BOMB-fueled rant about metal fans who think anyone cares about their “stupid political opinions.” Get ready to spill your drink and start an argument! 🔥

    WHAT THE HELL is Charlotte Church doing?! Neeley and Chris are ripping into the singer’s gross admission that she doesn’t shave or use deodorant. It’s a full-on rage fest that leads right into the ridiculous story of Milana Vayntrub’s “Only Philanthropy” site. Is it genius or a total disaster? You decide. Plus, we talk about Miss Finland losing her crown over a racial slur motion, and the drunken cop who got fired for trying to bang a colleague. Pure, uncut, argument-starting chaos! 🔥

    BRO, before the chaos starts, praise the masters of darkness! This episode is brought to you by Black Sabbath - SABOTAGE COLLECTOR’S EDITION BOX SET - https://amzn.to/45gHgDc. Get the Sabbath! 🤘

    We’re slamming lazy, irresponsible journalists this week! Neeley and Chris tear into the absurd story about Stevie Nicks “allegedly” forgetting the words to “Landslide,” which was complete BS, but the writer was too fucking lame to even check the video! Chris goes NUCLEAR on the writer’s pathetic lack of effort. 🤯

    Plus, we talk about:

    • The drunken policewoman who got canned for trying to bang a fellow cop at an event.• Sharon Osbourne’s wild confession: she only cared about Ozzy cheating when he brought the mistress home! What the hell?!

    This highlight is pure argument fuel! 🔥

  • Chappelle says Saudi Arabia is FREE? America is COOKED! 💀

    “He talked a good deal about how there’s more freedom to be yourself in Saudi Arabia than here. Because when you do comedy here, when you tell a joke here, you’re always taking the risk of being canceled.”

    [Sponsor: Metallica - THE BROADCAST COLLECTION 1988-1994 - https://amzn.to/4phEFBg]

    Dave Chappelle just dropped a surprise special called The Unstoppable and it’s pure chaos. Chris Akin dives into why this isn’t just a “comedy” special—it’s Dave in “storyteller mode” telling the world to kiss his ass. From making “life-changing money” in Saudi Arabia to addressing the death of Charlie Kirk, Dave is touching all the third rails.

    EPISODE BREAKDOWN:

    * The “Un-Funny” Factor: Why traditional comedy fans might hate this.

    * Ohio Power: Dave’s plan to buy his town.

    * The Cancellation Risk: Why Dave thinks America is more restrictive than the Middle East.

  • VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER: Jake Paul’s Jaw is GONE!

    [Sponsor: Van Halen - THE BROADCAST COLLECTION 1976-1992 - https://amzn.to/4oaeFqr]

    Bro, did you see that?! Anthony Joshua saved the entire sport of boxing last night. If he had lost to the “YouTube guy,” it was game over for the elites. Chris dives into the absolute carnage, the rigged-looking “low blow” timeouts, and the fact that Netflix’s commentary team was basically a Jake Paul fan club while he was spitting teeth.
