  • Episode 526-Lonnie Mack-Strike Like Lightning
    Aug 22 2025

    🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast – The Free Form Rock Podcast! 🇺🇸🎸

    We’re crankin’ up the amps and diggin’ deep into the blues as we welcome our good friend Brian Davis from the Damn Good Movie Memories podcast! Not only does Brian know his way around a killer flick, but he’s also a certified blues connoisseur—so we figured, who better to help us review an album by the one and only Lonnie Mack?

    ⚡ Will this album strike like lightning in a bottle or fizzle out like burnt bacon at a truck stop diner? No spoilers—but let’s just say things get tasty...

    🎵 Tracks of the Week:

    • Jerry: “Thank You” – Led Zeppelin (He’s still trying to get Plant to return his calls)

    • Mooger: “Pride and Joy” – Stevie Ray Vaughan (He plays this every time he changes a tire)

    • Marc: “Still Got the Blues” – Gary Moore (Yes, Marc still has them… and a vinyl copy too)

    • Brian Davis: “Rude Mood” – Stevie Ray Vaughan (Because being polite is overrated)

    So grab some whiskey, drop that needle, and kick back with your favorite degenerate music nerds. We’ll see ya next week on the Free Form Rock Podcast—where the music’s loud, the opinions louder, and the bacon always a little overdone. 🥓🎶

  • Episode 525-Danzig III: How the Gods Kill
    Aug 15 2025

    🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast! 🇺🇸 We’re cranking it to 11 and heading into the dark with Danzig III: How the Gods Kill—joined by our brother in metal, Travis Perrotta! 🖤

    Does this album rip through your soul in the best way possible—or does it just leave you feeling like you wandered into a Dirty Black Summer with nothing but regrets and leather pants? Some say Danzig is a dime-store Elvis. Others say he’s channeling Jim Morrison with a gym membership. We say… NO SPOILERS. You’ll have to listen and decide for yourself.

    🎧 Tracks of the Week: ⚡ Travis throws down Grand Funk Railroad – Shinin’ On 🌑 Marc gets moody with The Doors – Wild Child 🔥 Jerry turns up the energy with Scarlet Rebels – Mask 🧨 And Mooger ends the show with AFI – Totalimmortal

    So light a candle, turn down the lights, and dive into the darkness with us. And remember: if the gods kill, they probably had Danzig on repeat.

    🎧 Mooger floats into the ether with Pink Floyd – What Do You Want From Me? 🎹 Marc brings the street drama with Billy Joel – Captain Jack 🕶️ Joseph gets intense with David Bowie – Afraid of Americans 🌌 And Jerry finishes us off with the haunting Pink Floyd – Us and Them

    🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast 🎙️

    We welcome back family members Eddy Cannistraci and Travis Perrotta for an episode that was scheduled before the untimely passing of the Prince of Darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne. Fate had other plans, and 3 weeks later, it’s become a powerful tribute to one of rock’s most iconic figures.

    We're diving deep into Blizzard of Ozz — is it one of the greatest debut solo albums of all time, or does it leave you with a “Suicide Solution”? We’ll answer that and so much more as we celebrate the life, legacy, and madness of Ozzy Osbourne. Emotions run high in this one — heartfelt tributes, laughs, and memories from all of us who loved the man and the music.

    🎶 Tracks of the Week

    • Travis: Bombers (Open Bomb Bays) – Bill Ward

    • Marc: Crack Cocaine – Billy Morrison feat. Ozzy Osbourne & Steve Stevens

    • Jerry: Mama, I’m Coming Home – Ozzy Osbourne

    • Eddy: You Can’t Kill Rock ’n’ Roll – Ozzy Osbourne

  • Episode 522-Dreamcar-Dreamcar
    Jul 25 2025

    🎙️This week on America’s Podcast... we answer a question literally no one was asking: what happens when the guy from AFI crashes Gwen Stefani’s garage band practice? You get Dreamcar—the most ‘80s band to be born three decadestoo late.

    Is it a glorious throwback or a glitter-covered time machine crash? Are they the future of retro or should they have just left that sound buried next to a broken Walkman? No spoilers (as always), but we dive in like it’s 1985 and we’re wearing parachute pants and Aqua Net.

    We’re joined by the ever-stylish Favio Vegas and synthwave sensei Travis Perrotta to break it down in neon detail.

    🎧 Tracks of the Week:

    • Marc picks "The Gap" by the Thompson Twins—because someone had to bring the eyeliner.

    • Favio goes goth with "Peacefield" by Ghost—spooky AND synthy.

    • Travis keeps it classic with "Come Back" by the J. Geils Band—bless him, he's the rockin’ realist.

    • And finally, Mooger Fooger grabs his trench coat and shades for "The Chauffeur" by Duran Duran, because someone’s gotta be mysterious in this episode.

    So break out the cassette player, mist yourself in Drakkar Noir, and hop in the DeLorean—we're taking you back to the 80s, whether you like it or not.

  • Episode 521-Megadeth- Peace Sells...But Who's Buying
    Jul 18 2025

    🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast! 🎙️ Buckle up, metal maniacs—we're hopping in the time machine straight back to 1986, where the riffs are fierce, the politics are angry, and Dave Mustaine still hasn't smiled once. We’re diving deep into Megadeth’s Peace Sells... but Who’s Buying?

    Is this album a thrashterpiece worthy of our hard-earned Reagan-era cash, or does it bomb harder than a VCR instructional video? No spoilers—but trust us, it gets louder than Mustaine’s ego.

    Helping us sift through the rubble are special guests Tim Wirasnik and Travis Perrotta, who bring their musical firepower and strong opinions (and maybe a flask of nuclear fallout whiskey).

    🔥 Tracks of the Week:

    • Mooger picks Overkill’s “Hello from the Gutter” — because nothing says love letter like a rat-infested alley 🐀

    • Jerry gets haunted with Ghost’s “Lachyma” — spooky, dramatic, and perfect for summoning stylish Swedish demons 👻

    • Tim lays it on the line with Dee Snider’s cover of the Triumph classic — glam meets grit, with extra vocal grit from Uncle Dee 🎤⚡

    • Travis gets technical with Toxik — because his riffs need a PhD in shred 🤓🎸

    • And Marc sends us out with The Cure’s “Jumping Someone Else’s Train” — for those who like their eyeliner smudged and their metaphors deep 🚂

    ⚠️ Until next time—don’t end up on Devil’s Island, and remember to Wake Up the Dead by blasting some righteous metal straight into the afterlife. 🤘

    Jul 11 2025

    🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast! 🎙️

    We travel back to 1986 — perms were big, synths were bigger, and Peter Gabriel dropped his iconic album "So."

    We brought in guest Travis Perrotta to help us break it down: Is this album "So-So"… or does it hit like a lyrical Sledgehammer to the soul? You’ll have to listen to find out! (No spoilers — we're classy like that.)

    💥 Plus, we’ve got Tracks of the Week hotter than a lava lamp on a shag carpet:

    • 🎩 Marc goes vintage cool with The Doors – “The Soft Parade”

    • 🌸 Travis brings the dream pop feels with Lush – “Sweetness and Light”

    • 🥁 Mooger gets Stingy with it on Sting – “Fragile”

    • 🤘 Jerry… well, he just says "Yo Mama." (Which we decode as Genesis – “Mama”... we think.)

    So before the Red Rain falls, be a legend: ✅ Listen ✅ Laugh ✅ Leave us that ✨5-star review✨ on Apple Podcasts (Seriously, don't make us send Peter Gabriel in a morphing CGI bubble to your house.)
