The Metal Shop

Hammer pants. Attitude. Depressed rock stars. Gratitious use of the letter X. It's the 1990s!  This week Mike and Big Frog discuss what the 90s were like for them, the music they loved during that time, and the comics that influenced them. So sit back, shoot some heroin, and pound a bottle of Surge, we're getting X-TREME!

It's Part 2 of the KISStravaganza!  We finish up the history of the band, and Big Frog vents on why he really dislikes the current version.

You wanted the best, you got the best, the hottest band in the world..... KISS!.  It's part one of our two part KISStravaganza. In part one, we cover a basic history of the band leading up to it's current incarnation (with a detour of Big Frog talking shit on Ritchie Blackmore's hat somehow)

Whether it be because of tragedy or egos, sometimes bands have to do the unthinkable: replace their lead singer, to varying results.  This week Mike and Big Frog discuss replacement singers: the good, bad and ugly!

No catchy title this week, sadly. This week, Mike and Frog discuss what they feel are underrated albums from well known bands, and a special bonus about a band that most of us probably hadn't heard of, courtesy of Big Frog!

Our first episode focusing on comedy.  This week, Mike and Big Frog talk about one of the greatest comedians of all time, and his two landmark specials: Eddie Murphy!

David Lee Roth may not be 'Talkin Bout Love, but Mike and Frog are 'talkin bout Van Halen!  In this episode they discuss how they were introduced to the Mighty Van Halen, their favorite albums, and Mike goes on a slightly unhinged rant about Sammy Hagar. 

In this episode, Big Frog and Mike tackle the most succesful of the "Big Four", Metallica.  They discuss their personal history with their music, favorite albums, and go in to detail about seeing them live on their most recent tour.

It's our first episode!  In this episode Mike and Big Frog discuss how they got into heavy metal and comedy, tell stories from their youth, and discuss some of their biggest influences musically and comedically.  Consider this a "getting to know us" session. Future episodes will include things like "themes" and "structure"
