Episode 96: The Alex Van Halen Book & Various Ramblings
Darren and Steve are psyched and very curious about the recently-announced Alex Van Halen autobiography, Brothers, the Van Halen News Desk announcements...and wonder if Dave knew Alex’s books was coming? Plus, the usual recent and current video/podcast shenanigans from DLR, Darren talks with Tesla’s Brian Wheat about Diamond Dave wanting to manage that awesome band, and was ”Skyscraper” Dave’s attempt at a dance record and Billy Sheehan’s thoughts on that...and much more...

Episode 95: A Different Kind of Truth, Indeed (And This Is An Understatement!)
Another week, another ”Dave unhinged” as Diamond David Lee Roth one continues to burn all bridges left (we need more analogies!), this time with Dave’s recent (mercifully short) stories on the Roth Show, about a Van Halen accountant getting thrown out a Jones Beach VH show and then, supposedly why the last Van Halen studio album, A Different Kind of Truth, isn’t on the streaming services. Darren takes those stories apart, Steve waxes confusingly on what he hell is the point to all the ”truth” and has always thought Dave ignored Wolfie on stage. All that, and more...

Episode 93: There's Nobody To Say No: "The Ballad Of Popsicle Sam"
