Episode 4 - My Dog Is My God off Today Was Yesterday. The boys dive a little deeper on the background of Ty Dennis and Angelo Barbera and still stay on point with 20 minutes of Rush-related blah-blah.
The show...it's a quick fix to help soothe your RushRash - your itch to hear Rush music - get a dose of new tunes by Ged and Al with your RushRash clinicians, Chaz N Schatz.
A new random choice spinning 18 song wheel made up of Alex Lifson's contributions to Today Was Yesterday and Geddy's 2 new tracks, released with the memoir My Effin Life, but written and recorded at the time of My Favorite Headache in 1999-2000. We included that whole record as well, since it deserves to be heard! We hoist a shot in memory of The Professor, and proceed to listen to whatever the wheel lands on. You know the drill. Effin eh?
20 minute cure - your in-N-out clinic for a quick Rushian fix. Join Chaz N Schatz and hear something new from Lerxt or Dirk today!

Rush news, general nonsensical disorderly conduct, lack of regard for correctness or truth, and reckless endangerment of your whole-brain. This is one of two of the only podcasts 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.
Episode 3 - The Angels' Share off Geddy Lee's My Favorite Headache. Quickly becomes a discussion of the band, but still on point with 20 minutes of Rush-related blah-blah.

Chaz N Schatz visit with Heath McCoy, best-selling author, award winning journalist, and sports writer from the Great White North. You may know Heath from his spots on And The Podcast Will Rock, where he’s forever defending David Lee Roth’s version of Van Halen, and we get to know Heath even better, deep diving on his journalism career, having been the entertainment beat reporter for the Calgary Herald.
Not only a Rush fan, Heath has been fortunate enough to interview both Geddy and Alex, and we get to hear some of his best moments speaking to some of his all-time heroes. Join us as Heath shares:
Heath’s fandom of Rush goes deep. He name drops some deep cuts and shares that his earliest aspiration was “to be Neil Peart” as a rock star, drummer, and writer of lyrics.
The wheel gives us the lighter side of Rush, sharing Different Strings off 1980’s Permanent Waves. The guys can’t help but make at least two Ozzy Osbourne references from this song, leading them to wonder: was The Ozz-Man a fan of this song and Rush??
We name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and we thought fondly of Ed from rushisaband.com. We forget to give a shout-out to our sponsors Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai but we meant to (must be the gummie hangover). More games, merriment, and pointing you all to this list of current links, it's...

Welcome to Season 2! Ummm...uh...yeah...it's the 4:20 episode with Malcolm MacKinnon, Photographer and Editor for High Times Magazine in it's glory days. It's a cue the 500mg gummie-puck and THC infused seltzer episode...and all that that implies.
From a time when it was an outlaw thing to do, to photograph the country's best pot for the centerfold in High Times Magazine! Malcolm was editor in the magazine's marijuana hey-dey, it was the bible of the counter-culture for nearly 50 years. But like all things, time, money, and, uh...never mind. We get a serious contact high from the inside out with this candid walk down memory lane. What can you say, the grass is always green, but not necessarily greener in a place like that. You be the judge on this revealing episode - too good to give away with bulletpoints! Oh - we did at least remember dig deep into the connection between High Times and Rush. And Malcolm shares many other details from his fascinating career as a traveling pot journalist.
The wheel gives us Stick It Out off 1993’s Counterparts. Again, the voting turns out in surprising ways, this time with Schatz pulling a double take move, and as we know, that's always a treat for this weekly fanboy-fest.
We name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and we thought fondly of Ed from rushisaband.com. We even give a shout-out to our sponsors Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai in an even betterer treatment than last time. More games, merriment, and pointing you all to this list of current links, it's...

In another neposode, Chaz and Schatz welcome Gary “G-Mann” Baumann of Steel Revenge, the band he’s in with Chaz. Gary has a long history playing bass and guitar in bands in and around Northern Colorado for most of his life, and has the stories to go with it.
Join us for a great journey back through the glory days of the Colorado rock scene from the inside out. Gary waxes nostalgic dropping some pretty big names, as well as a few brain farts along the way. We hear about:
- Turning a family cow into brand new Epiphone
- Being a roadie and sound guy in and around Denver
- Being left a schedule one present from the opening act that ROCKED anything he’d ever seen
- Opening for rock’s biggest Canadian trio in our humble cow-town in the late 70’s
- “Making $14 the hard way” as a working musician in Denver in the 70’s, 80’s, and today
- Being the guy who owns the PA, and all that implies
- Making music with family, friends, and world-class musicians in the Rocky Mountain west
Gary's fond memories of fun and good times make for a down-home evening of well-spun rememberences of a music scean more active than you might think from the outside looking in.
The wheel gives us Kid Gloves off 1984’s Grace Under Pressure, a song we generally knew, er...some of us...one of us at least. The voting turns out in surprising ways, which is always a treat for this weekly fanboy-fest.
We name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and we thought fondly of Ed from rushisaband.com. We even give a shout-out to ol’ Martin Popoff, and we give our sponsors Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai a new treatment. More games, merriment, and...

In another RushRash exclusive, Chaz n' Schatz corral that 'ol One-Wheelin' Rush Rat - The OG RatFather Himself, Lance "TheShred" Kasten of Overtime Angels.
Overtime Angels is a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded in 2014 inspired by the generosity, humanity and philanthropy shown by the members of RUSH. They are committed to helping individuals, families and small organizations who do not meet the criteria for assistance from larger social service agencies. Overtime Angels does this by providing financial assistance to help those in crisis.
Lance is also of The First Guard, the Order of Rushians known as The Rush Rats, as in...yes, those fans from way, way back, who've been there, done that, and know you had to look it up!
From what it's like to see Rush 99 times, to putting together little "celebrations" with a few hundred of your closest friends, to producing events, to getting to work with some of the craziest, most fun-loving, and passionate Rushians from all over the world helping others in the name of the band! Not only that, but some pretty average fan experiences involving:
- Chicken suits and wheelboards
- Off duty cops & donuts
- Air-drumming and competitive air-guitar for fun and profit
- What it's like to help people get a leg up
- Having Donna Halper hang at your house party in the day
- Being there with Ed Stenger of RushIsABand.com when RushCon was that thing they couldn't leave alone
- Working with people like Doanne Perry and Taylor Hawkins to get personal stories about Neil to put on A Night For Neil
- What it was like to put out the just released commerative album and t-shirt A Night For Neil
The wheel gives us Scars off 2009's Presto...probably because we all just love Presto so much! (The wheel has it's ways...)
We name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and we spoke fondly of Ed from rushisaband.com, our sponsor, Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai! Games, meriment...

In a RushRash exclusive, Chaz n' Schatz land an exclusive with vocalist Rocky Kuner and guitarist Ben King of Southern California's Mood Lifters Tribute to Rush just ahead of their disembarking for a full-on "half-a-smily-face" tour of the land Down Under, 5 cities in 5 days!
We talk what it's been like since Rocky joined the band and how they continue their journey from local SoCal Rush Tribute to all-out Global Rush rash super-spreader, spreading the rash far and wide! Moods were elevated:
- What it was like going to Scotland, playing Rushfest with jetlag, other musicians, and someone else’s equipment.
- How Ben discovered Rush through his sister in a time when MTV actually played music and how Rocky found Rush through her parents mix tapes.
- Rocky's reaction to being dragged to Rush concerts by her Dad and Uncle at age 12.
- How Mood Lifters and Rocky found each other after Rocky left YYNOT and how the band has gone to the next level since they’ve all joined creative forces.
- The gear-up to do something Rush didn’t even do…play a five city tour of Australia this month.
- The market for Rocky's hand-written set lists and how her biggest fans are closest to the heart!
- How the band is able to create such high-energy shows that has everyone singing and participating.
- How the band is rounded out by Mat Miranda on drums, who couldn’t be with us.
And in an ongoing pattern of wheel-based shenanigans, we spin a track with no vocals, Leave That Thing Alone, off 1993’s Counterparts. Rocky and Ben really get into the music and Ben helps us discern the “Celtic flavor” in Al’s solo. Music appreciation and love of all the nuance, magic, energy, and intensity of multiple time signatures, key changes, and notes, notes, notes!!
We name-drop (or at least think to mention in the show notes...) some of our usual suspects of our own like rushvault.com, and we are always thinking about rushisaband.com, and our fantabulous sponsor, Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai! And witness the first dual-attempt at playing Schatz’s Scratch List - a tongue twisting good time was had by all - so now get out there and scratch that itch to hear Rush music with the Mood Lifters or any of these other bands live:

In our time-honored tradition of having Rushian authors fill our emotional airwaves here on RushRash, Chaz and Shatz welcome author, podcaster, and all out Rock and Heavy Metal Historian, best-selling author Martin Popoff for a super-charged Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Name-Dropping episode that leaves our co-hosts slack-jawed. Join the guys as they get the Martin's stories on...
The wheel gives us Subdivisions off 1982's Signals. Given all of the voices in this podcast were young enough to remember waiting for this album and first hearing this song, this is a show that goes to our teenage anghst. But not just there...with Martin's encyclopaedic knowledge of all things rock and metal, this episode delivers delightful diversions that would have been entertainment for kids growing up in the suburbs,
