From Rock Legends to Military Secrets: Flight to London, Thriller Writer J Len Sciuto & Georgian History

In this packed episode of The Neil Haley Show (10-8-25), Neil brings you an eclectic mix of fascinating conversations spanning music, military thrillers, and Georgian-era history.

First up, music producers Jimmy McCormin and Robb Vallier from Flight to London share their journey from working behind the scenes with artists like Goo Goo Dolls, Weezer, and Sabrina Carpenter to finally stepping into the spotlight with their own band. They discuss their debut album "Instructions for Losing Control," their nostalgic '80s-inspired sound, and why they finally decided to create music for themselves after decades of producing for others.

Next, former nuclear chemist and military officer J Len Sciuto reveals the challenges of writing military thrillers while keeping classified information under wraps. He discusses his latest book "Hades Crypt," which explores submarine warfare and the race for Arctic resources, and shares sobering stories from 36 years of service in the Navy and Coast Guard.

Mina Valentine takes us on two historical journeys through Georgian England—first exploring the surprisingly disgusting world of bathrooms and hygiene practices, then examining how the postal system connected the nation through letters and love notes.

Finally, author Mitchell S Karnes opens up about the stress of revisions.
