As promised, here's a look at the Johnny come lately rock mag of the 80s and early 90s, RAW - Rock Action Worldwide (it says here). American comedian Sam Kinison has a single out and is roping in his rockin’ pals to help out. But who’s the most dateable metal hunk in the video? And is Kinison a threat to The Goonies? There's some news about a new band who are destined for greatness, and an unfortunate incident with seafood. Possibly. Also Manowar say goodbye to Ross “The Boss” Friedman and hello to Dave “The Death Dealer” Shankle. This is why I was never a metal god, I never had a nickname. What have Anvil got in common with The Spice Girls? The answer may shock you.  Also! A DEEP KUTZ that is both smooth and angry! Superman history! Important information about Piranhas! Dry vs wet!    Recorded 16th March 2025

We're back with another deep dive into K482. We have a look at that televisual classic The Word (which has locked 50 Sepultura fans in a metal cage for no discernable reason).  There's singlez (from Soundgarden, Primal Scream, Smashing Pumpkins and Corduroy), and posters (celebrating the Big Hitters of grunge. And Tad). The Wildhearts’ health and safety precautions are questioned and we look at a very dubious piece of cover art by a band called... sigh... Genital Deformities.  The main feature is a look at the new “improved” 90s version of Mötley Crüe, which finds our heroes without Vince Neil, but apparently unable to talk about anything else.  Similarly free of their best known front man, Marillion are 6 years Fishless, but still doing concept albums. And a film -gulp! Also: Korrespondents, Klassifieds, and a teaser for the next episode. You've never had it so good!   Recorded 8th March 2025   This week’s ad is for the @astrovert_media Podcast

Swingin’ on the flippity flop! It's the mid 90s, and we're donning our best flannel, kickin’ it with Ren and Stimpy and checking out Kerrang! To the extreme! Join us as we try to remember the name of our current favourite song! Confusing Steven Tyler for Jarvis Cocker! The Encarta / Cinemania / Music Central triptych of mid-90s CD-ROM excellence! Rediscovering 90s Britpop second divisioners Cast and accusing them of Guns n’ Roses plagiarism! Punky Fish remembered! Other stuff! We investigate what makes a good band name, and how there aren’t any. Aerosmith! The Cult! Gwar! Nine Inch Nails! Redd Kross! And the return of Mother Tongue! All this and a non anecdote about almost going to the inaugural Phoenix Festival. Make sure you listen to find out how that one turned out!   This week's ad is for @Polyphonic_Press Recorded on Feb 6th, 2025  

What's a jalopy? What's that awful wailing? Ozzy Osbourne doing Winter Wonderland, that's what, so it must be our fun, festive Christmas episode.  Cliff's least loved Christmas hit is examined and we struggle to follow the plot of a video for a smooth 80s jam. Also, remember Lemmings? Man that was a good game.  In the world of Kerrang, we look at the Christmas 1987 edition, which features a ton of stuff we've already talked about on previous episodes. And there's an end of term game which very nearly goes all right.  The long awaited return of fan favourite features TV KRYMEZ and Have You Seen The Chart leads us to explore the parallel universes of Shaky and Dennis Waterman. Plus all the usual tangents and bullshit. You know the drill by now!   This week's ad is for @MusicNotesWithJess   Recorded Friday 13th December 2024  

Faith No More's Big Jim Martin appears as the Kerrang cover star this week, so we're back in AD 1989. There's a NWOBHM special, because of course there is, and we examine a few forgotten heroes of that bygone age. Or to be more specific, we look at a couple of goofy old promo photos. We check in with our old pals Ice Age who are ROCKING Wisbech Market Square, and The Who's Pete Townshend who's about to unleash his version of The Iron Man. Slash is dictating a letter to the press, we look at some SINGLEZ (Beastie Boys! Nuclear Assault! Soundgarden!), and once again consider King Diamond's face!   Sexy cartoons! American state mispronunciation. Even more Bea Arthur! Also the Milli Vanilli/Faith No More collision you never knew happened!   Our ad this week is for The @PickaDisc Podcast Recorded 16th November 2024.

We're just gonna carry on as if there's not been a massive gap in our scheduling, and everything's completely normal, right? Denim and Leather are BACK! Our unexpected hiatus means we have a LOT to catch up on, which means no Kerrang this week- if you regularly tune in for info on all your Classic 80s metal faves you might want to skip this one (but also, what the fuck, are you OK?). In the meantime it's our usual bullshit: Chris De Burgh is cyberstalked, we meet Instagram royalty and complain about how hot Florida is. More arguments about Ghost! Tetchy cinema interactions. Cancellations aplenty. Can we possibly afford a pair of hazmat suits? Also this is now a Golden Girls fan Pod. You OWE YOURSELF the chance to enjoy Can I Pod With Madness!   Our ad this week is for The @AlbumNerds Podcast Recorded 8th November 2024

HI BILLY! What's the one movie that gets mentioned on this podcast more than any other? Long time listeners will hardly be surprised to hear that we've recorded a Lost Boys special. Join us as we luxuriate in the sexy vampire goodness, 80s style!  What's Kiefer Sutherland like in real life? Has Billy Wirth cast a spell over all women of a certain age? Who is the drummer in this band? Do DVDs still exist? Are there any other movies with vampires in? We'll attempt to answer all these questions, and along the way relate various stories of awkward celebrity interactions. And the usual digressions, obv.   The video we edited for Alan Frog, Jamison Newlander @jamisonnewlander is here  https://youtu.be/toU6YKRH5xQ?si=cCXAD6jy4STVU9bt   Follow The Lost Frogs Comics @the_lost_frogs_comics (and for gods sake please try and identify the mystery comic book cover).   Follow For The Love of Horror @ftlohorror and if you can make it to the event you stand a good chance of meeting Tim Capello   Our ad this week is for The Worst Podcast on Mars @worstpodonmars   Recorded July 11th 2024

We’re looking at the early 80s work of Genesis and immediately make an absolute booboo regarding their hit Mama - I know it wasn’t Rapper’s Delight, it was The Message by Grandmaster Flash that was the inspiration for the laughy bit! Don’t @ me! Regardless their “The Mama Tour” video is praised to high heaven despite having one of their more embarrassing tunes on it. You know, the one about aliens. No, the *other* one about aliens. Tina Turner is live and unleashed, in an era before she was the 80s’ favourite purveyor of raunchy soft rock. Still waiting around for Private Dancer et al, she’s mostly doing cover versions. This leads us to remember Steve Coogan’s mostly forgotten comedy character, Tony Ferrino. We delve into the oeuvre of Thor, Norse god of thunder and, apparently, rock. Wendy O. Williams has been doing stuff with KISS, Manowar has been doing stuff with Orson Welles and Kate Bush gets an interview. Tune in to find out which is her favourite season! This is still Kerrang we’re talking about, by the way!  Along the way we’ll talk robots, graphic design, Eminem, Lenny Kravitz (yet again) and Eamon Holmes. Er... rock and roll...?

What’s Phil Collins’ favourite chocolate? It’s not a gag, we actually want to know. Regardless of the famous tub thumper’s preferred sweet treat, he’s the star of Kerrang’s most bonkers cover ever. We’re looking at a really really OLD magazine this week, so there’s news on Status Quo splitting up shocker - especially shocking since they carried on for about 40 years after this. Also in this ish: Spider with their particular peculiar brand of rock and roll and Rock Goddess, on tour of various shitty hotels around the country. Kommunication features a mysterious Whitesnake anecdote, and a letter from someone who thinks Kerrang should only cover Pink Floyd and The Doors. There’s a lovely story about Ozzy Osbourne and Motley Crue which doesn’t involve ants, and we discuss the lasting legacy of Risky Business. Also what’s a Wurlitzer (again)?

It's Q, so by law there has to be a feature about U2, but it's U2 in their postmodern, post-earnest, post black and white phase. We discuss the best song they ever did- see if you can guess which it is, considering we also talk about Batman Forever on this one.  Also featured is Prince so we investigate further his collaboration with Kate Bush and discover something that presumably everyone else knew since The Red Shoes came out. Also fun fact, we reveal which of Prince’s entourage appeared in Buffy and how much we spent on a VHS box set of Season 5. Faith No More, W.A.S.P, Napalm Death and Marillion all get reviews, so we're still keeping one foot in the hard rock universe. We remember Peachfuzz the friendly wolf and The Breakfast Club.    Recorded 28th April 2024 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFHy1v9rCUUi-cI-ZTOgvrMe&si=nohydRn4PvDjFZ57   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  @revilorenidrag  

Once again we’re taking a break from the parallel universe of 80s metal, and delving into Q, The Modern Guide To Music and More, from 1992, so we’re on the back foot straight away as everything is spelled correctly. There’s news about Prince and Craig McLachlan, and ABBA are back, back, back etc. This leads us to talk about the brilliance of Erasure, and tribute bands. Along the way we’re talking Mel B / G / Scary Spice, a surprising revelation about Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead, and the continuing subplot of a Billy Wirth obsession. We also shout out our friends over at the Dystopian Dance Party podcast @Dystopiangram who are basically a better version of us.  Is Metallica’s Kirk Hammett an Inspector Gadget fan? Why aren’t Americans charmed by a Gloucestershire accent? What’s the definitive version of Rocket Man? All this and much much more in PWM33.   Recorded 18rth April 2024 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFHy1v9rCUUi-cI-ZTOgvrMe&si=nohydRn4PvDjFZ57   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  @revilorenidrag   Buy Iron Maiden socks https://amzn.to/3U5VkuO And keks https://amzn.to/3TPzWJ1   #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #Q #ClassicRock #DontTellMomTheBabysittersDead #Prince #ABBA  #Erasure #Metallica #GunsnRoses #TheLostBoys

Back with our faces in Kerrang Kontaktz, we finally get to some Korrespondences with real live Kerrang readers from back in the day. In addition we tackle Kontroversies such as rap metal krossover, whether 80s Sabbath are any cop, and is Satan as much of a laugh as he claims.  Along the way we look at psychedelic jazz blues prog trio Show of Hands, American Horror Story, KISS NEWS, and probably something about The Lost Boys and Disney, as usual.   Recorded 10th April 2024   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFF4zmVNEjGfrfnwAofETKgJ&si=B8XjC-5-dzRvbbar     Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  https://www.instagram.com/revilorenidrag/ @revilorenidrag     Buy Iron Maiden socks https://amzn.to/3U5VkuO And keks https://amzn.to/3TPzWJ1     #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #MetalHammer #ClassicRock    #KISS #AmericanHorrorStory #Aerosmith  #RunDMC #Anthrax #BlackSabbath #TheLostBoys      

This week we’re looking at Kerrang Kontaktz, the Magazine Written By Rock Fans - or alternatively, a lazy money for old rope exercise in which some long rambling letters get published in full. Some “Kontroversial Komments” on the matters of are Whitesnake big fat sellouts, is Robert Plant trying to distance himself from his Led Zeppelin past, and are Glam Rock Pretty Boys giving rock a bad name? Also there’s a shit ton of Pen Palz, which is always good for some inexplicable and baffling comments that possibly didn’t even make sense at the time let alone 36 years later.   We also report back on everything we’ve been up to during our hiatus (mostly listing Aerosmith faves and being in the presence of metal royalty Judas Priest, Saxon and Uriah Heep)   Also includes a plea for sponsorship with Iron Maiden and Monty Bojangles   Recorded 6th April 2024   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFFMSscrdXoDDQIEx_-vN-1q&si=nrVOaz9D6yzk4YNw Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  https://www.instagram.com/revilorenidrag/ @revilorenidrag Buy Iron Maiden socks https://amzn.to/3U5VkuO And keks https://amzn.to/3TPzWJ1 #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #MetalHammer #ClassicRock    #JudasPriest #UriahHeep #Saxon #RocknRollerCoaster #Garfield #Poison #GlamRock

This week we’re taking a look at Lenny Kravitz, and asking is he too sexy to be into Star Wars? Talking of NSFW content, we remember a classic Steve Guttenburg video, and assess the career of Judge Reinhold. Kerrang’s cover star is Marillion new boy Steve Hogarth, in a leaf related photoshoot. We ask is their latest single ideal to be used in an 80s douchebag comedy movie, and whether they should have worked with The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. Alice Cooper’s on tour and America is cracking down on rudeness.  Danish rockers Disneyland After Dark lead us to speculate about what that would actually be like, because we are apparently Disney adults. Also if the mysterious Club 33 want to give a couple of influential podcasters a membership, we’ll totally be up for that and be absolute shills and/or keep it quiet, just give us a shout. Charity football matches, charity singles and charity gigs are all going on, and we struggle to remember The Poll Tax, the hole in the ozone layer and other things that made the 80s terrible. The Monster Mash is BACK, as is me complaining about the lyrics. We ask whether musicians in the 80s worked out and give a shout out to the little known Austrian bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger.  All this and Font Talk is back!    Recorded 10th Feb 2024  

Vixen are our cover stars in this issue, so the casual sexism starts early! WASP are celebrating their lead guitarist (who - spoiler alert, bails out of the band in 6 months time) and cranking out a Jethro Tull cover. There’s reports of secret Aerosmith gigs, so we may rebrand as a mystery podcast. We’ve got features on Quireboys (mostly drunk) and Gary Moore (mostly angry about Kingdom Come). Motley Crue are up to their usual antics and we look at some great listings for Shrapnel, Penpalz and Klassifieds.  News about Scott Ian gives us an excuse to use our Anthrax artwork! Residual anger over people talking at KISS concerts! Talking of KISS, Paul Stanley is (affectionately) mocked. Plus ASMR!    Recorded 31st Jan 2024   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFE6gA9hhlSjtXIwmYgLFPRs&si=0iKgfTOD9ELDVDdC   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  https://www.instagram.com/revilorenidrag/ @revilorenidrag     #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #MetalHammer #ClassicRock    #OzzyOsbourne #GaryMoore #Vixen #Quireboys #KISS #Prince #Anthrax #WASP

In a change from the intended episode we don't even get to Kerrang in this one, but we do talk about Steve Wozniak, reminisce about Feeder's Just a Day, discover Feeder's Just a Day 2, remember the first lockdown and spin off into a conversation about Eurovision and our favourite entry ever from 2006, Lithuania's LT United with We Are The Winners. Also DEEP KUTZ brings us 1987 by Diamante, and we ask whether she's inspired by Stranger Things and/or Dazzler.   Also the return of the moon controversy.

Kicking off a new year and a new podcast with yet more Gen Patter, as we question whether Gen Z are into Zorro, and wonder whether it’s too late in the game to change the name of the podcast. Simply Red are reappraised, despite not appearing in this week’s issue of Kerrang! However - we do get Atomkraft, WASP, The Accused, Dogs D’amour, Paul Sabu, and Zodiac Mindwarp.  Kommunikation features opposing views about Faith No More (still in their Chuck Mosely era) which somehow sends us off down a rabbit hole where we discuss Paris Jackson and Incubus. We ask is “Martha Splatterhead” a feminist trailblazer, and wonder about the state of digital watch technology in the early 80s. We lament questionable marketing for Aerosmith’s Honkin’ on Bobo and present our pitch for the Sabbat biopic. There’s big features on Motorhead (apparently Lemmy is proper into The Titanic) and Heart (which means I can bang on about Dream of The Archer again). We finish off with a new KWIZZ, which goes a lot better than the last time we tried a KWIZZ.  Also: Coronation Street!   Recorded 5th Jan 2024 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-i-pod-with-madness/id1667966016 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69OGJDFZRFu5mjHja3rEOn Amazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fa9908fc-34dd-4638-b446-eef44988dfd3   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFEHCvtttFIycJxJRLTSP7Ic&si=scoPeHzxln_jKkAx   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner @revilorenidrag   #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #MetalHammer #ClassicRock    #SimplyRed #Atomkraft #WASP #TheAccused #DogsDamour #Quireboys #PaulSabu #ZodiacMindwarp #FaithNoMore #Incubus #ParisJackson #Aerosmith #Sabbat #Motorhead #Heart  

Like a Christmas Gift For You, but less problematic (thanks Phil!) here’s a very special BONUS podcast that we recorded way back in April. We basically spend this bonus episode promoting Reels Ov Steel, the Heavy Metal Movies podcast, who probably have way more listeners than we do, but what you gonna do? This led us to discuss what constitutes a good example of a metal movie. Can you make a case for something being metal just because you like it? We investigate.  We suggest a few movies that our pals at Reels Ov Steel have since covered, but that just means great minds think alike, right? Also you get our hot takes about cinematic masterpieces like Singles and Iron Man 2. Spoiler: Garden State is not a metal movie.  In addition we look at a few upcoming rock biopics and give our verdict on the value of movies that haven’t been released yet.    Recorded 15 April 2023    #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #Rock #MetalHammer #Rock #ClassicRock #DefLeppard  #PaulStanley  #KISS  #AliceCooper #SpinningGold #DazedAndConfused #NeverEndingStory #GhostShip #GladysKnight

Welcome to our Christmas Pod (for the third time). We thought we were done but then there was some IMPORTANT BREAKING KISS NEWS to cover (sorry... “kover”). Along the way we talk ABBA (obviously), The Millennium Dome, Spice Girls and horror movies that make you cry (or possibly just me). Damn you Guillermo Del Toro!    We attempt to delve into Kerrang’s Kerristmas Kwizz, but due to bad planning it doesn’t really work. At least it gives us an excuse to post a picture of Lisa Dominique looking sexual, as always. Talking of sexual, how do you like our new album art? Pretty sweet, right?   There’s some Christmas DEEP KUTZ that aren’t very deep, grudging praise for the skills of the doctor from The Human Centipede, lots of Krampus talk and then the podcast cuts off before the end because our microphone batteries ran out. Ordinarily that should mean it all goes in the vault, but we thought what the hell put the pod out anyway, because nothing says end of term vibes like this absolute shambles. There’s some good clips though.     Recorded 7th December 2023   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist:  https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFGzTjAtx5EMCrvwuqPsrIQ_&si=UTm_TTz6bYlbd33s   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner  @revilorenidrag  

Welcome to our Christmas Pod (for the second time). It's 1988 and behind the glorious Simon Bisley cover we're looking at a whole bunch of Festive Feechas, once we're done gatekeeping the work of Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin.  Uriah Heep are playing a Christmas festival, there's some surprising news about Marillion and we explore the connection between mystical unicorns and Gary Moore. Most of the Korrespondents in this issue are writing in to defend(er) Manowar, while we find ourselves inexplicably preoccupied by an advert for FIST. Did you ever FIST? Let us know! We get some great quotes- sorry, Kwotes and pics of the year, and recap some of the news stories we've covered in the course of the podcast. In addition we highlight some of our Christmas faves, not to mention some of the great electronic acts of the early 90s like The Shamen, the KLF and Jive Bunny.    (During the recording of this episode, one of the cats jumped up on the keyboard, somehow switched it on and started playing the piano in a sort of free jazz, Keith Tippett style. Unfortunately our microphones completely failed to pick up the audio, but if you wonder why we start asking her if she wants to play any more, that's the reason) Recorded 29th November 2023   Check out pics from the issue on our Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/podwithmadness/   YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6jGszBq8BFGY6l8IEsPBIp27FkyQfnck&si=r5ArJdQVNx3c-KU9   Tip us on ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/podwithmadness   CAN I POD WITH MADNESS THEME by Oliver Gardiner @revilorenidrag   #Podcast #Metal #HeavyMetal #Kerrang #80s #MetalHammer #ClassicRock  #motleycrue #Marillion #killerdwarfs #klf #shamen #jivebunny #garymoore #manowar #Aerosmith #led zeppelin #Christmas
