A magnitude 5.3 earthquake could not stop our guest on episode 56, legendary guitarist Ernie C from the iconic metal band Body Count,

Before Ernie calls in from Los Angeles, Brando is joined by special co-host, Katherine Turman. Katherine was not only our guest on Ep. 21, the radio producer of "Nights with Alice Cooper," co-author of "Louder Than Hell: The Definitive Oral History of Metal," but also has been friends with Ernie C for decades....

Ernie takes us all on his journey as an only child in Detroit, then moving to LA where he was immediately recruited for a gang but was able to avoid trouble the best way he knew how...the guitar. We hear about how he met Ice-T and the infamous Guns N' Roses/Metallica/Body Count shows in which Metallica asked BC be dropped from the shows because of the "Cop Killer" controversy. How does Ernie feel all these years later? Also we discuss race, his friendship with Duff McKagan, the FIRST Lollapalooza, and so much more!

Ernie is a charming and funny guy, and this is a can't-miss episode for every metal and Guns N' Roses fan. Please follow/subscribe/leave a review!
