In this wild episode of Today's Boondoggle, Bill dives deep with Matt "Lord" Zane of Society 1, the shock rock band that redefined controversy. But Matt's story doesn't stop at music—he's also a powerhouse in the adult film world! From his early influences like Michael Jackson and RUN-DMC to his rebellious inspirations from GG Allin, Matt's journey is anything but ordinary.

He spills the tea on going to school with members of Weezer, hitting the club scene with Korn, and witnessing his peers rise to fame. Plus, he dishes on his friendship with Kelly Clarkson, creating his documentary Everyone Dies, and the jaw-dropping moment he shattered Criss Angel's record! Oh, and did we mention the time he shocked the crowd by tossing salad on stage?

If you think you know shock rock, think again. This episode is packed with unbelievable stories and behind-the-scenes chaos. You won't want to miss it!

Did Matt Zane's wild antics go too far, or were they pure rock 'n' roll genius?

In this explosive episode of Today’s Boondoggle, Bill sits down with guitar virtuoso Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal, best known for his time with Guns N’ Roses, to dive deep into everything from his quirky Thimble technique to his wild 8-year tour with the iconic band. Ron shares unforgettable stories, including his thoughts on KISS, Jupiter’s “niceness,” and even touring with ASIA. He opens up about his art, marriage to a veterinarian, and his experiences with Scott Weiland and Scott Stapp in Art of Anarchy. Not to mention, we get into some hilariously bizarre topics, like weird animal diseases and... hemorrhoid cream? 🤔 Ron also gives us a taste of his unique approach to guitar composing, while reflecting on the “blessings” of COVID and the road less traveled. This is one ride you won’t want to miss!

What do YOU think of Ron’s approach to music and life? Could his offbeat techniques change how we see guitar playing?

In this episode, we dive deep into the edgy world of Clozure, exploring their military roots, the hot Albanian language, and their bizarre crush on The Undertaker. From covering Evanescence to writing 'Criminal Mind', and even flirting with Hugo from Tantric, Clozure's journey is as controversial as it gets. Discover the family vibe behind the scenes, their Nashville connections, and why having a Band Mom is crucial. Plus, their international escapades with a member in India, and the ongoing military influence on their operations.
