Talkin‘ the Talk With Don
Since 2009, I have interviewed some of my favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. From Classic Rock to Black Metal and all else in between, if I love an artist, I want to talk to them! I try to set a relaxed, ”living room” type of vibe and have a conversation and talk about anything.

Back in 2008 or so, my best friend James and I launched a podcast called the Heavy Metal Lunch. Basically all we would do was get together, eat shitty (but really awesome) food, drink booze, and talk about metal. The Heavy Metal Lunch was one of the most fun things I have ever done and […]

Legendary NWOBHM band Grim Reaper is a band that I have loved since first hearing their song “Rock You to Hell” from the album of the same title. Like a dumbass, I went to the record store and picked up their album See You in Hell accidentally. While “Rock You to Hell” wasn’t on that […]

Talking to Kyle for the first time was just like talking to an old friend. I really enjoyed talking with him about the return of Exhorder, why 2019 was the right time for their return, and the legendary New Orleans metal scene. Kyle is an incredibly nice and really funny and I had a blast […]

Since first hearing them back in 1990, I have been a ginormous fan of pop/rock legends Jellyfish. The band only released two albums (Bellybutton and Spilt Milk) and heavily toured for both. I was extremely lucky to see Jellyfish twice and both times were on the Spilt Milk tour. The album and touring lineup featured […]

Classic rockers Lucifer has been a favorite band of mine for quite some time. Vocalist/Songwriter/Founding member Johanna Sadonis has put out some of my favorite music. Starting with her former band The Oath to Lucifer’s last album, Lucifer III, Johanna never ceases to blow my mind as both a writer and a performer. Lucifer wrapped […]

Hallas is a Swedish band that I can only describe as cosmic and interstellar. Hallas describes their sound as “adventure rock” and after one listen you will totally understand. In 2020 Hallas released its second full-length album Conundrum and this album totally drew me in as a fan. I had a chance to have a […]

I am so glad I finally got to do an interview with Grandma! No, not MY Grandma. Everyone’s favorite Grandma. That’s right. You’ve offered to help her out of the chair! It’s Jodi Cachia. Most may not know her by name but Jodi has been playing the role of Grandma (among other stellar roles) in […]
