March 11 Stay Gold - C. Thomas Howell's 50 Years In Hollywood
Actor C. Thomas Howell joins with incredible behind-the-scenes stories from The Outsiders! Hear how he landed the role of Ponyboy Curtis, the unique workshopping they did that served as auditions, what it was like working with Francis Ford Coppola, Patrick Swayze, Tom Cruise, Matt Dillon, and Ralph Macchio, and how some of the most iconic moments in the film were improvised (like the famous “There’s a monster” moment outside the church)! Tommy also talks about appearing in Steven Spielberg’s E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial at just 13-years-old, and why filming that movie was like stepping onto a top-secret movie set run by the C.I.A.! He reveals the unbelievable story about being cast as Marty McFly in Back to the Future for two weeks before the role ultimately went to Michael J. Fox. And he discusses his brand-new action films One Mile: Chapter One and One Mile: Chapter Two, shooting two movies simultaneously, playing the villain, and working alongside Ryan Phillippe. Plus, stories about Celebrity Cadabra, filming with Elizabeth Taylor, lessons learned from Rutger Hauer, the underrated film That Night, and the real secret to longevity in Hollywood!
ONE MILE: CHAPTER ONE and ONE MILE: CHAPTER TWO are available on Digital now!

March 06 On The Road with Fozzy on the Eyes On You UK Tour
Chris Jericho is flying solo and breaking down Fozzy’s just-wrapped Eyes On You UK Tour! He shares stories from packed shows in Manchester, Nottingham, Newcastle, London, and Wolverhampton, and how several cities delivered the biggest Fozzy crowds they’ve ever had. Chris talks about the Manchester show that nearly derailed due to a massive technical glitch before the band hit the stage, climbing an amp stack and jumping off it during the encore in Newcastle, and watching the Super Bowl in an English pub. He also shares backstage stories about hanging with Tailgunner and Marisa And The Moths, meeting up with friends like Adrian Smith, Phil Campbell, and KK Downing, the fan VIP jam sessions, the wild after-parties, the movie excursion, and the moments that made this UK run one of the most memorable tours of Fozzy’s career.

March 04 Live From The Lizzie Borden House - America's Most Notorious Axe Murderer
Rob, Dave and Jesse from Hometown Ghost Stories join Chris Jericho LIVE inside the real Lizzie Borden House in Fall River, Massachusetts to break down the infamous 1892 Lizzie Borden axe murders, one of the most brutal and debated true crime cases in American history. Andrew Borden and Abby Borden were hacked to death with a hatchet inside this house. Lizzie Borden was arrested, put on trial, and acquitted after just 90 minutes of jury deliberation!
They dissect the full timeline of the Lizzie Borden case including the mysterious 90-minute gap between killings, Lizzie’s conflicting alibis, the alleged prussic acid poisoning attempt, the burned dress controversy, the hatchet found in the basement, and the shocking autopsy details performed inside the home. They break down the prosecution’s four key pieces of evidence, the questionable police work, the media frenzy that turned this into one of America’s first national true crime sensations, and why the jury came back with a not guilty verdict so quickly. They also examine alternate suspects including Uncle John Morse, inheritance motives, the staged robbery theory, and whether Lizzie’s
sister Emma or maid Bridget Sullivan knew more than they admitted. Plus,
because this was filmed inside one of the most haunted houses in America, they explore the paranormal side of the Lizzie Borden House including reported full-body apparitions of Abby Borden, shadow sightings of Andrew Borden, EVPs believed to be Lizzie herself, and the infamous basement corner linked to scratches and dark activity. Is this one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in true crime history? Or did history get it wrong? Watch and decide.

Tailgunner is leading the new wave of British heavy metal, and the buzz is real… they were selling out shows before they’d even played live! Bassist Tom Hewson, guitarist Zack Salvini, and singer Craig Cairns talk about forming the band online during lockdown, betting on themselves by recording and touring independently, and quickly landing runs with W.A.S.P., HammerFall, U.D.O., and Accept. They break down the moment Judas Priest legend KK Downing discovered them, invited them to open his show, and went on to produce their latest album “Midnight Blitz.” They share stories from the road, including wild European crowds singing guitar melodies back to them, the nickname “The Puppies” given to them by Saxon, and their mission to bring classic metal back for a new generation!

February 25 Oh My Gob! An In Depth Deliberation with John Goblikon
John Goblikon of Nekrogoblikon joins to break down his life as a 30,000-year-old goblin navigating humans, music, comedy, and podcasting! John
explains what goblins REALLY are (and why trolls are the enemy), growing up in Reseda with a human family, getting bullied in high school, and how a corporate sales job unexpectedly changed his life. He shares the insane story behind Nekrogoblikon’s viral “No One Survives” video (thanks to Diplo), how it blew up the internet, and how he went from band mascot to frontman (thanks to Post Malone). Plus, John talks about launching his own podcast “Right Now with John Goblikon,” building a stand-up comedy career (including bombing… or were audiences just following goblin rules?), performing at major comedy festivals, and his surprising connection to wrestling, including a wild TNA appearance and why he wants to settle his beef with trolls in the squared circle! He also gets into dating as a goblin, fame vs. authenticity, touring the world with metal fans, and why 2026 might include his own sitcom. All that… and Chris tries to figure out where goblins actually come from.

February 20 Dolph Lundgren on Drago, Stallone & 40 Years of Rocky IV
Dolph Lundgren joins to talk about the making of Rocky IV and the creation of one of the most iconic villains in movie history – Ivan Drago! Dolph shares the story of getting dismissed at his first audition for being “too tall,” how he eventually landed the role, and how Sylvester Stallone completely reimagined Drago after meeting him. He breaks down his screen test, the acting choices that made Drago so cold and calculated, and how lines like “I will break you” became part of the pop culture lexicon. Dolph talks training for the film, taking real hits in the ring, and the subtle layers he brought to Drago that made the character more than just a machine. He also discusses his early days as a karate champion and chemical engineer, how he walked away from a Fulbright scholarship at MIT to pursue acting, and the wild journey from a small role in a James Bond film to overnight fame after Rocky IV. Plus, Dolph has stories about Universal Soldier, working with Jean-Claude Van Damme, his run in direct-to-video action films, directing his own movies, and his return to the big screen with The Expendables and Creed II. And… he introduces his new Hard Cut Vodka, and explains what he’s learning about being CEO of his own business!

February 18 The Death Of Superman Lives!
Brad Gilmore returns to break down the wild, unbelievable story behind the Superman movie that never happened (which is also chronicled in the documentary, The Death Of Superman Lives). Tim Burton directing. Nicolas Cage as Superman. Kevin Smith writing the script. And somehow… it all fell apart. Brad and Chris dig into how this massive production got all the way to pre-production (costumes built, sets designed, millions spent) before being shut down just weeks before filming. They get into Kevin Smith’s original script, producer Jon Peters’ infamous “no tights, no flying, giant spider” rules, and how multiple rewrites, competing visions, and studio
panic derailed everything. They also break down Nicolas Cage’s unique take on Superman, Tim Burton’s darker vision, the insane casting ideas (Sandra Bullock, Chris Rock, Christopher Walken), and the leaked costume photos that killed the movie before it even started. Plus, what Batman & Robin had to do with the plug getting pulled, how close this movie really was to shooting, and why this might be the most fascinating “what if” in Hollywood history.

February 13 “Garden Shears Are Great” – Favorite Friday The 13 Kills with Roth & Leone
Eli Roth and Damien Leone return on Friday The 13th for a killer episode breaking down their all-time favorite kills from the Friday the 13th film franchise, including the shocking arrow-through-the-neck debut of Kevin Bacon in the OG Friday the 13th to the savage sleeping bag smash in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. They revisit the wheelchair machete massacre in Friday the 13th Part 2, the head-crushing brutality and corkscrew carnage of Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, the garden shears to the eyes in Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, the rooftop head punch in Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, and the liquid nitrogen face smash in Jason X. They also debate practical effects vs. CGI, Tom Savini’s make-up and special efx legacy, the kills that were cut by the MPAA, and the moments that made them want to become filmmakers in the first place. Plus, Damien reveals the kill he thinks might be the most graphic in the entire series, Eli explains why one decapitation changed slashers forever, and Chris shares the death that still makes him cringe.

February 11 Thekla - The Toxic Spider Spins Into AEW
Austrian-born AEW star Thekla breaks down her wild, unconventional path to All Elite Wrestling – from underground training in Vienna cellars with no ring or ropes, to surviving five years in Japan’s brutal wrestling system. Thekla talks about cutting her teeth in Ice Ribbon, leveling up in Stardom, and why living at the dojo during the pandemic accelerated her
growth faster than anything else in her career. She explains how touring Europe in a punk band prepared her for life on the road, why punk rock and pro wrestling are more alike than people realize, and how chaos, rebellion, and DIY culture shaped her in-ring identity. Thekla also details how she first connected with AEW, her initial meeting with Tony Khan, and what it was like walking into the AEW locker room as the new, Japan-trained wildcard. She opens up about creating her signature spider walk, blending flexibility with character work, and using her outsider status as an advantage. Plus, Thekla talks about her AEW faction Triangle of Madness, working alongside Julia Hart and Skye Blue, her goals for championship gold, and why 2026 is officially “the year of the spider.”

February 06 How Big Daddy & Giant Haystacks Made… and Slayed British Wrestling
Author Steven Bell returns to break down the real story behind his new book Big Daddy vs Haystacks and the rivalry that took over British wrestling (and television). He explains how Big Daddy (aka Shirley Crabtee, Jr) and Giant Haystacks (aka Martin Ruane) became massive pop-culture icons, why their feud pulled in millions of viewers every week, and how years of tension finally exploded in their legendary Wembley Arena showdown – one of the most watched wrestling matches in UK history! Steven reveals how the rivalry was stretched out on TV for years, what
really happened in the ring at Wembley, and why that match became both the high point and the turning point of the British wrestling boom. He also gets into their connections to WWE – why Big Daddy never crossed over, how Giant Haystacks later surfaced in the States as “Loch Ness,” and what their brief American runs exposed about the clash between British wrestling and the American style. Plus, Steven shares behind-the-scenes stories from Stampede Wrestling, including what Bret Hart really thought of Haystacks during his time in Canada, and how those Stampede matches helped shape the legend, and the mythology of Giant Haystacks outside the UK.
