The first of the Big 4 hits The Metal Forge this week.  We have David Ellefson in this week as we are talking Kings of Thrash, Dieth and some really cool other stuff he has been involved with.  Such a rad guy, I will be having him back for some "REFORGED" episodes for years to come. Mark and Athena have a great time with David.

This week Jason Gardner is back from The Heavy Metal Wasteland to talk some David Ellefson as well.
