Rhythm on the Rocks

Today, it is finally happening - Frizz and Bob tackle one of the greatest genre bending albums of all time. Frizz pours a genre bending scotch finished in a bourbon barrel. Bob pours a genre bending bourbon finished in a scotch barrel. Things go crazy while we talk about the history of race records, a man named Fathead, Diet Pepsi, country classics, smarketing, and uncover yet another tie to yacht rock.

Frizz and Bob dive headfirst into one of the most important and controversial metal albums of all time: Iron Maiden's The Number of the Beast. Bob pours Ardbeg Ardcore, Frizz reaches for Cardhu Gold Reserve, and together they trace Iron Maiden's scrappy rise from Christmas Day to cult favorites and lineup changes. Track by track, they explore Viking invasions, twin-leads, psychic children, existential imprisonment, Satanic panic, colonialism, death-row dread, and the Eddie imagery that lit the fire of fear across the nation.

We're back and diving straight into one of the best albums of 2025: Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party. Bob pours Los Dos Amigos Reposado tequila, Frizz grabs the Cairngorm Reindeer Gin, and together we break down Hayley Williams at her rawest and sharpest, touching on relationships, mental health, Nashville politics, Parahoy! lore, Strange Fruit, and a well-earned dunk on racist country stars. It's reflective, vulnerable, insanely catchy, and a love letter to her fans as much as it is for herself. We also learn Frizz is not opposed to ice in her orange juice.

Happy Holidays! This week, we bring you our BIGGEST episode to date - the 12(ish) Guests of Christmas! Join us as some of our best friends and favorite guests from the last few years join us to uncover some of the most obscure holiday songs, share some of our wildest holiday memories, eat puppy chow, laugh about the weirdest nativity set, and find out what the definitive WORST Christmas song of all time is. And - be sure to stick around until the end to answer the age old question - "Mary, did you know?"

Frizz and Bob clink a Coors Banquet and a bottle of Orange Groove Wine as they host the most prestigious, unserious award ceremony in music - the 3rd Annual Rhythm on the Rocks Annual Awards Show. Part celebration, part chaos, part Slim Jim fever dream - together, they hand out honors like Hidden Banger of the Year, Most Disappointing Album, and the coveted Ballbag of the Year, while revisiting everything from Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds to Erykah Badu, Springsteen to Grunge, and conspiracy theories & beyond. At our loosiest and goosiest, we cheers to another year of deep dives and good vibes.
