Drummer Tommy Clufetos Talks Back To The Beginning And More On Talkin' Rock 20:28

4M ago20:28

20:28

Always great to catch up with drummer Tommy Clufetos, and this time was no different. He played in Ozzy's band for the Back to the Beginning concert, so I had to ask him about that.

Two great artists, one mediocre host - it's Talkin' Rock with Meltdown. I just realized I opened by saying this is "the final" episode of Talkin' Rock. That's because I'm on vacation next week.

It's always great to catch up with Johannes from Avatar. I think this is my third or fourth time interviewing him. Full disclosure: I'm an Avatar fan! Their new single “Captain Goat” is a wild ride—both musically and visually.

We can think of no better way to launch a podcast than with our first two guests: Mae Martin and Bob the Drag Queen. Mae (Handsome podcast, debut album “I’m a TV” and upcoming Netflix series “Wayward”) shares their secret crush gone horribly wrong, and perhaps the most incorrect way to use a spatula. Bob (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, The Traitors, NY…
