On this episode we again explore the topic of Shadow People, one of the few paranormal creatures that can get under Brennan's skin and discover that sometimes, they're as afraid of us as we are of them. Most of the time they're not though, and that worries us greatly.

On this American road trip-themed episode, author Jamie Davis Whitmer takes us from lesser known hauntings in Bisbee, Arizona to her own personal encounter with the spirits of the Stanley Hotel and the Queen Mary. She also lets us in on the dark spiritual encounter that has, at least for now, caused her to step back from writing further books on the paranormal.
Elsewhere, Brennan returns from Minnesota with stories of haunting both there and at home, Ian REALLY likes Red Lobster, and there's a ton of listener mail.
There's also a LOT of food talk.

Untimely deaths followed the opening of Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter. Coincidence or ancient curse? When the tomb of King Tutankhamun was sealed more than 3000 years ago, it was rumoured to be protected by a curse, which would ruin the life of anyone who disturbed the pharaoh's final resting place. A mere two weeks after the tomb was discovered in 1922, one of the explorers died from a fatal mosquito bite. This wasn't the end of the bad luck, there was more to come... Anthony and Maddy are joined by Egyptologist Campbell Price to unpick fact from fiction, and get to the bottom of one of the most notorious curses in the world.

It has long been believed that punk rock icon Sid Vicious died of a heroin overdose. That is true. However, new evidence suggests that his overly affectionate and increasingly dependent mum gave him a fatal hotshot in a final, maternal act of mercy. Listen to find out why.

After a long hiatus The Corpse Cast if finally back for 2025! We're kicking it off with 70's Exploitation Dracleas... I pronounce it that way because back in the 70's I didn't know the difference between Dracula and any Vampires... also I was a child, so I said "Dracleas". Well, it's good I didn't see some of these movies back in the 70's because... well, you know. Anyway, this episode we've got Blood for Dracula (1974), The Satanic rites of Dracula 1973, and Nosferatu, the Vampyre (1979). Come and get it!

In this latest thrilling episode, Mick and Joel pick over the life, loves and legacy of the greatest rock star of them all. The Big Cheese, the full enchilada, the deep-fried cheese burger. Or simply, The King. Elvis Aaron Presley is the pioneer of rock 'n roll. the man who created a road-map for rock stars before rock stars even existed. From a dirt-poor childhood, via a spell as a truck driver and briefly the world's most famous GI, he became the planet's biggest superstar and then its most mysterious recluse. Today, Elvis has taken on such a mythic quality that it's now hard to believe he was actually even a man (and a relatively young one when he died, aged just 42). This is an amazing, but tragic tale; a tale of fierce youth, facile films, fancy jumpsuits, and folly.

This week, seasoned rock writers Mick Wall and Joel McIver shine the spotlight on Marc Bolan; with a Gibson set to stun and corkscrew hair, he wasn't no square. Bolan was a true original, moving from late Sixties acoustic hippy whimsy to hard rocking, glamtastic boogie by the turn of the decade, and in doing so influencing a slew of artists, his friend and rival David Bowie included. Whilst enjoying an amazing run of hit singles, often compared to that of the Beatles, by the mid-70s Marc's solid-gold lustre was beginning to fade. However, by the arrival of punk, which "exploded onto the scene" around 1976, Bolan himself was cited as an influence, and he had in turn welcomed their short, sharp shocks. Any budding comeback was ended when Bolan was killed in a car crash in September 1977, but as we discover, Marc's was a brief but brilliant career.

This week, Mick and Joel turn their keen eye and quick wits to the late, great Jack Bruce. Jack was a highly gifted musical prodigy, with a love for jazz and classical music, but who came to prominence in the British blues boom of the early Sixties, finding himself rubbing shoulders and sharing stages with the likes of Alexis Korner, Mick Jagger, Graham Bond and John Mayall. But of more importance was his introduction to Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker, ultimately leading to the formation of Cream, the pioneering British heavy blues power trio. Following Cream's dissolution in 1969, after two brief but brilliant years, Jack pursued an erratic and idiosyncratic solo career that would never hit the same heights again (bar a brief Cream reunion in 2005). But Jack was always a highly venerated musician and huge inspiration to a generation of bass players.

This week our wild and willing wordsmiths Mick and Joel look at the short but stunning life of Randy Rhoads. A one-time guitarist with LA also-rans Quiet Riot, he became more famous as Ozzy Osbourne's right-hand man following his departure from Black Sabbath. Along with Sharon Arden (later Mrs Osbourne), Randy was absolutely fundamental in resurrecting Ozzy's moribund career. He also proved hugely influential to a brand new generation of guitarists. But all was not to last long. Within just two years upon the world's stage Randy was tragically killed when a senseless prank went wrong. But what a talent, and what a small but perfectly formed legacy.

In this episode of the podcast, revered rock writers Joel and Mick pick over the brilliant but all too brief life of the scion of Seattle, the golden boy of grunge, Kurt Cobain. In a brief but blistering 4 years, Kurt went from social outcast to being the poster boy for the alternative music scene, The music he spearheaded, and the bands who followed in his slipstream (Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains and the rest) would completely change the musical landscape almost overnight. And though grunge lives on in various ways, it was a scene that coalesced with Cobain and which effectively died with Kurt's suicide.

In this episode, Mick and Joel scrutinise the short life of folk artist Sandy Denny. Sandy was a key figure in the evolution of folk rock, being a great songwriter, but one who also brought traditional songs to the fledgling Fairport Convention and was kept to the creation of their seminal Liege & Lief album. She's also the only artist to have guested on a Led Zeppelin album. But Sandy's complex character - exacerbated by insecurities and alcohol - meant that her life burned briefly but brilliantly.

In this week's Dead Rock Stars, there's double trouble as Mick and Joel dissect the lives of brothers Darrell and Vinnie Abbott. Their band Pantera quickly rose from being an enthusiastic and talented (if derivative) hair metal act, to groundbreaking artists whose 1994 album Far Beyond Driven one of the most extreme albums to debut at number one on the Billboard charts. But the story of the Abbott brothers has been one of severe highs and lows with tragedy stalking the band; firstly with the shocking murder of Darrell on stage by a deranged fan in 2004 and then with Vinnie's death in his sleep in mid 2018.

In the latest eye and ear opening instalment of Dead Rock Stars, Mick Wall and Joel McIver take a look at the long and, quite frankly, legendary career of Rick Parfitt of Status Quo. Though often derided by snobby critics for their reliance on 3 chord boogie, The Quo was a band of the people. In fact, they had 60+ top 40 singles in the UK, and were the band who famously opened Live Aid in 1985 with the perfect "Rocking All Over The World". And Rick was their charismatic, talismanic, tousled-haired blonde bombshell, who guys wanted to be, and women wanted to be with,.

Revered rock writers Mick Wall and Joel McIver scrutinise the Bad Reputation of Thin Lizzy's Phil Lynott, singer and songwriter, rocker and romantic, bard and brawler. An illegitimate child of mixed race, Phil escaped his tough Dublin childhood to front the powerhouse hard rockers Thin Lizzy. And yet despite a clutch of killer albums, a formidable twin guitar attack and Lynott's charisma, this was a band who never quite conquered the planet. Through drink, drugs and disaster they were a band who never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

In the latest episode, revered rock journos Mick Wall and Joel McIver take a personal, passionate and - at times - profound look at the career of David Jones, once of Brixton, now of the greater universe (via Mars, of course). Bowie was one of rock's most influential innovators and visionaries, and his passing in January 2016 is still somewhat hard to comprehend even to this day. But he did leave a legacy that's rich and rewarding, deep and diverse in meaning and material, and one that will still yield surprises for decades to come.

In the latest thrilling instalment of Dead Rock Stars, legendary rock journalists Mick Wall and Joel McIver take an enthusiastic and enthralling look into the good times bad times of Led Zeppelin powerhouse drummer, John Bonham. Bonzo is widely considered the greatest rock drummer to ever wield two (sometimes four) sticks, has been endlessly sampled and would also prove irreplaceable; when he died so too did Led Zep.

In the third episode, revered rock writers Mick Wall and Joel McIver turn their attention to former Queen frontman Freddie Mercury. From his childhood in Zanzibar to completely conquering Wembley Stadium at Live Aid, Freddie's life was a rollercoaster ride. But one that was always gloriously OTT. As the singer for one of Britain's best loved and most idiosyncratic bands, a band who bestrode the globe like a fabulous colossus for over two decades, there's much here for Wall and McIver to get their teeth into. And they do.
