Episode 13 features the debut album from The Stone Roses, simply titled The Stone Roses, released in May of 1989. It’s a deep dive into one of the most influential alternative albums of its time — moody, melodic, and undeniably cool. After that, we’ll jump into my favorite part of the show, the always fun and unpredictable Staff Picks. Then we’ll roll into The Year That Was 1989 before wrapping things up with my closing call to action. So sit back in the way back machine and let me take you on a ride back to 1989.

Episode 12 marks the first of many Beatles albums I’ll be diving into, starting with their 1963 debut — the record that gave the world its very first taste of Beatlemania. This is where it all began, raw and full of that early fire that changed music forever. After we break it down, I’ll roll into my favorite part of the show — the staff picks — before taking you on a ride through the year that was 1963. Buckle up, this one’s where history really starts to hum.

Alright all you headbangers and metalheads its finally here, Metallica. On today's episode we are featuring Metallica's debut album Kill 'Em All released in July of 1983. This was a warning shot across the bow of the world that metal as we knew it was changing. So, sit back, relax or bang your head right along with the tracks I have featured for todays episode. After that we will have staff pics, songs also released in the year of 1983. After that we will do the year that was 1983 to wrap it up. If you are a returning listener thank you. And if you are a new listener, welcome and we hope you enjoy it and stay. We would like you to tell a friend and come back for next weeks episodes. And don't forget out previous episodes are available for you. Now lets put on our leather and get ready to jump in the mosh pit with Metallica.

On this weeks episode we dive deep into what both me and my co-host Princess Amy consider a perfect album. From back to front there is not a bad song on it. Released in August of 1991 right when Grunge exploded. So, put on your flannel and ripped jeans and lumberjack boots and sit back and relive the memories of 1991 with us. Following our featured album we will be doing (my favorite) part of the show Staff Picks. Followed by The year that was 1991. Thanks for staying with us if your a regular. And thanks for finding us if you are a new listener. Now let get in the way back machine and take off to 1991.

Episode 10 takes us into one of the greatest debuts of all time—Ten by Pearl Jam, a flawless album that set the tone for the entire grunge era. Princess Amy and I dig into this masterpiece before rolling into my favorite part of the show: staff picks. We’ll close things out by looking back at the unforgettable year that was 1991 and then wrap this sucker up.

On todays featured album I bring you New York's own Beastie Boys with their smash debut out of the gate hit License to Ill. Stick around afterwards where I will do some staff picks, followed by the year that was 1986.

Episode 8 takes us into the 2000s with The Killers’ explosive debut album Hot Fuss, the record that gave us anthems still blasting from speakers today. After that deep dive, stick around for some always eclectic Staff Picks that’ll keep you guessing. We’ll wrap it all up with The Year That Was 2004, a trip back to a wild and defining moment in music and culture.

Episode 7 brings something special — I’m joined by my co-host and wife, Princess Amy, as we dig into Alanis Morissette’s juggernaut debut album Jagged Little Pill. This record didn’t just hit the charts; it defined the sound and attitude of 1995. After our deep dive, we’ll roll into the always-eclectic Staff Picks, and then wrap it up with The Year That Was 1995. A powerhouse album, killer picks, and a trip back in time — this one’s got everything.

Episode 6 dives headfirst into punk rock history with the Ramones’ explosive debut album — the record that lit the fuse for an entire movement. After tearing through this landmark release, we roll into everyone’s favorite segment, Staff Picks, where you never know what surprises are coming. Finally, we wrap it all up with The Year That Was 1976, putting the album in its full cultural context. Punk, picks, and a trip back to ’76 — this episode’s got it all.

NOTE: I screwed up on the original drop today. And it was bugging me so much I just had to go back and fix it. I accidentally left a 2 minute gap right in the middle of the episode. So, I tightened it up and put it back out as RE-Redux (Yep, I had to redo it once before due to Spotify guidelines). My bad, still learning. So, this is a RE-Redux.

This episode is a step away from the traditional format of the show—no staff picks, no “year that was,” none of the usual structure. This one is different. This is a full-on tribute to The Prince of Darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne. From the groundbreaking madness of “Crazy Train” to heartfelt moments like “Mama, I’m Coming Home” and “Dreamer,” we dig deep into the catalog of a man who defined heavy metal, survived more chaos than most could imagine, and still came out larger than life.

This isn’t just a look at the hits—it’s a raw, unapologetic journey through Ozzy’s legacy, the highs, the lows, and everything in between. And while the spotlight stays on Ozzy, you know we couldn’t let it end without tipping our hats to where it all began—with a few Black Sabbath honorable mentions to close things out.

A tribute. A celebration. A farewell in our own Gen-X, no-bullshit style.
