Chaz N Schatz end up tripping over their amps and drumsticks with guest phenom, Freddy Mercury Award Winner and Yamaha and PRS endorsed Recording Artist Leoni Jane Kennedy, whose in-fact got the Rush Rash case we weren't prepared to handle - so severe, Steve Brown of Tena Men's Rushfest Scotland caught a new variant from her! Her Rush Rash stretches back deep in her creative genesis, and she shares some pretty deep shit with us. The Containment Unit couldn't contain her talent or inspiration and dedication to all things Rush. She is a true force of nature and maybe the coolest kid to show up to your AV Club. We dive deep on her academic achievements, her new album New World Woman - an acoustic collection of songs penned by the world's greatest drummer - but there isn't a drum beat on it! Her musical roots, her road mates, tales of inspiration, dedication, study, and a voice of pure, haunting starlight. Join us as Leoni takes control of the Solar Federation for a spin of the cosmic wheel. You will not fucking believe that we ended up with 2112, particularly given where we start...

DISCLAIMER: WE DID NOT RIG, FIX, PUT A DOOKIE UNDER THE SCALE OR OTHERWISE TAMPER WITH THE WHEEL SPIN - WE GOT FUCKING INTEGRITY - LIKE LEONI SAID, "IT IS WHAT IT FEKN IS".

So the place might have reeked of Macallan and beat cigarettes, Steve Brown's ⁠Moving Pictures Scotland'⁠ Brand Veggie Haggis, and discarded Tena Men's pants (the UK meaning of "pants" ya wankers!!)...but Leoni handled it better than that tough French-Canadian dude Matt we had in there last week! The talent in the Rush Family knows no bounds!

Leoni knows ⁠Danforth & Pape⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and while we *eh* may not have discussed it on the air...it was discussed that there is such great merch at Danforth & Pape's Facebook page, you're nuts not to get there and buy some pre-show party apparel before going to see Leoni play at the Hard Rock Cafe Glasgow prior to Geddy's Effin Book Tour appearance!

We do take 2112 and dive into song facts, numerology, the maths, the memories and even song insights from ⁠⁠⁠⁠RushVault.com⁠⁠⁠⁠, but there was no Rush news from ⁠Rush Is A Band Blog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on our agenda this week...we were having too much fun geeking out with Leoni on her degrees, music, math, her mum, her music teachers and more. What would Leoni decree if she was placed in charge of said Solar Federation for a day? Tune in to find out, but don't pull a finger in her direction on the next cross-country flight...and we thought we'd need cross-gender training for her treatment! The Rush Rash Treatment is universal!

Yep - we blah, blah, blah'ed for over an hour before the wheel spun 2112 - all 20:33 glorious seconds of it. Guess how we voted this one...and you know our format - so grab a rocket ship, kick back and take a ride with us and Leoni, for a more epic than our last epic music-nerd fest of an epic, fekn awesome episode of Rush Rash.

Rush news, general nonsensical disorderly conduct, lack of regard for correctness or truth, and reckless endangerment of your whole-brain. This is the only podcast dedicated to increasing opioid release in your anterior insula, your anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and your posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), in addition to the basal ganglia and the thalamus...and all that that implies. 

Some thick North Jersey accents and they give you some royalty-free sound effects and movie clips too - what more do you need to indulge your urge to scratch?!  Join us - you know where to scratch - blah, blah...RushRash.
