This week on The Fred Minnick Show, Dave Stephens sips Journeyman Corsetts Whips and Whiskey, which won Best in Show at this year's ASCOT Awards. 

Stephens is lead vocalist for the heavy metal band We Came As Romans, based in Detroit, Michigan. The band, which formed in 2005, has five albums to its credit, with another album, Darkbloom, set for release in the fall. While the band has undergone numerous personnel changes over the years, it has held strong and is set to embark on yet another tour. Stephens and Fred do a quick olfactory test. During this intimate interview, Fred and Dave talk about everything from the band’s longevity to the value of masks on airplanes. 

But the most poignant moment was when Stephens opened up about the loss of his band mate Kyle Pavone, who died in 2018.
