Jonah Ray Rodrigues (Mystery Science Theater 3000, Comedy Central's The Meltdown, Nerdist) stars in Destroy All Neighbors, a splatter/horror comedy about a frustrated musician trying to finish his prog-rock epic. Jonah talks about getting into punk and metal in Hawaii, playing music, Weird Al, standup comedy, making art, and, of course, Metallica. Keep up with Speak N' Destroy and Ryan J. Downey.

"It's Two Minutes to Late Night!" Jordan Olds, aka Gwarsenio Hall, talks about the fantastic covers of "Blackened" and "Creeping Death" (featuring members of Mastodon, Testament, Carcass, Cannibal Corpse, and many more) organized by Two Minutes to Late Night, the heavy metal late-night talk show. We talk about his history with standup comedy, the various covers (like, 82!) on the show's YouTube channel, and of course, Metallica.

It's just me! Ryan J. Downey here with a look back at some of the killer Metallica shows I've seen over the past 35 years, including small underplay club shows, unique award show and late-night talk show performances, festivals, and more. I seamlessly and organically tie some of these experiences to different guests who've joined Speak N' Destroy since the podcast began in 2017 and give some updates on projects involving Metallica tour openers Pantera and Ice Nine Kills.

"Why isn't there a metal site that talks about metal the way people actually talk about it?" The MetalSucks co-founder, formerly known as "Vince Neilstein," tells the origin story behind the opinionated news site. There's also an in-depth discussion about "The Metallica Economy": how the kickoff of a new Metallica album/touring cycle is the digital wave that lifts all of the metal websites. (In 2022, Ben and his fellow cofounder, Matthew "Axl Rosenberg" Goldenberg, sold MetalSucks to The Orchard, a subsidiary of Sony Music, and left their co-Editor-In-Chief positions.)
