The Tales From The Lift returns to it’s metal-mecca brother crypt of Cleveland Ohio for a chance to invade HELL’S HEADBANGERS RECORDS & DISTRIBUTION. We talk to one of the mad scientists behind this operation, Justin, about all things metal, the record business, bodybuilding, nutrition, and coffins full of cool shit we KNOW you’ll dig in this high-energy, nerd-out conversation. Justin is a great dude full with a wealth of heavy metal knowledge & iron-iron breathing passion. it was an honor. Please check out http://hellsheadbangers.com if you know what’s good for you.

On this episode of Tales From The Lift I am joined by Molly aka Clea Cutthroat (Hot Pink Satan, Elevate Fitness) & John (Elevate Fitness Owner, general bad motherfucker) to talk a little rock & roll, and a little health & wellness. Awesome human beings (or are they ?) in the local Pittsburgh fitness scene crossing over into the punk rock scene are not easy to come by, and we are honored to host them in the crypt as fellow Lifting Dead Army Warriors! This turned out to be a really fun conversation concerning everything from Lemmy to bodybuilding. Thanks again FREAKS!!

On this week’s edition of Tales From The Lift I venture out of the crypt all the way to Pittsburgh Performance Institute where I am joined by owner, operator, ultra runner, fitness guru & newly a proud father, Mike Littrell. Of course we talk about the importance of fitness, nutrition, and proper recovery; but more importantly, we get into the mental aspects of pushing beyond your limits, creating a new standard for yourself, and achieving success in all aspects of life. This is truly an inspirational episode that I know you freaks will DIG! Check him out, as well as his bag of recovery tricks & treats at Pittsburgh Performance Institute in Robinson, PA.

Unlucky Episode 13 SPECIAL!! 13 brings the punk rock spirit from an actual NYC lower east side dungeon.. AKA epic rock ‘n roll warriors Mick’s Jaguar’s practice space; I conduct a super well-produced and very formal interview with the aforementioned’s frontman & Bon Scott - era AC/DC maestro; John Martin. We are also joined by their tour manager & solid humanitarian, Justin. We are straight chillin’ before we hit the streets of NYC for one of the greatest experiences of all time (speaking for us all) … a sold out Misfits show at Madison Square Garden. Good times lie ahead. You MIGHT even get a sneak peek at NEW Mick’s Jaguar material. Thanks for doing this, boys. We missed you, Chino!!!

Join us on this fine Sabbath Sunday celebration straight out of the Birmingham. Yes, the motherland of heavy metal & heavy iron, breeding British titans like Black Sabbath, Dorian Yates, and of course, my pay & your favorite… Mr. Adam Onslaught!! Adam hosts his own heavy metal radio show on MMH - Home of Rock Radio in the UK and is currently studying for his masters at WaterBear College of Music.

Adam has struggled with various health issues and had reached out to me in the early days of the DCL crypt for training & nutrition coaching. I’m proud to say he is on the path to success in all areas of life; and I am nothing but honored to be a part of it and to consider him a great friend. We also talk about a lot of BLACK SABBATH!!

Are YOU ready for #TheGlobalOnslaught ?!?!

After putting Connor a grueling session in The Iron Crypt, we have a high energy, health & wellness - centric discussion in which you will dig up all kinda workout tips, tricks, hacks, slashes, and rock & roll… all of which being For The Children. Connor may be a health coach in training; but his wealth of knowledge, intoxicating passion, and willingness to be humbled & learn is beyond admirable and infectious… like a zombie spawning virus. I know you FREAKS will dig this conversation and maybe even learn a thing or 3. Much love.

WE ALSO get into our For The Children training program in which we focus on empowering the youth through mind, body, and spirit training. DIG our For The Children shirt in which ALL profits are donated straight to Hungry For Music Charity: https://www.deathcomeslifting.com/store/for-the-children

AAAAND THE BOYS are back!! I have returned to the land of Austin, Texas to unleash health with my brother & master co-crypt keeper, Wyatt hagerty. Although unlike episode 1, we are no longer BLIND IN TEXAS! We see EVERYTHING as Wyatt details his mission of ultimate truth, consciousness, human optimization, and love. recorded at Onnit labs. it’s all blessed.

FINALLY! After a long time in the making, the Death Comes Lifting invades the home crypt of the hardest working & most consistent underground metal record label in the business, Redefining Darkness (and it’s eclectic evil twin; Seeing Red Records). CEO & genuine passionate metalhead Thomas and I not only nerd out about extreme metal, but also get into the business side of things, how it has evolved from the 90’s to now with social media and the likes, growing up an outsider with death metal in our blood, Cleveland vs Pittsburgh, Cannibal Corpse vs Italian Grandmas.. and MORE!! It was an absolute delight & honor to have this conversation… and the metal community is eternally grateful for the hard work & high quality material Redefining Darkness has made itself known for. I predict MASSIVE things coming from him in the very near future. SUPPORT THE UNDERGROUND!!!
