HoJo’s feeling a little bit poorly this week, but is he ready to take off his metal breastplate and retire to bed? Is he buggery! Not when there’s music to discuss and laughs to be had over John Waites 1984 album ‘No Brakes’, the one that featured colossal US Number One ‘Missing You’. There‘s also a dissection of music by Finnish rocko/pompy/folksome/popmongous outfit Von Hertzen Brothers, as well as the absolutely unwhackable story of Hunnsy being beaten around the head by Noodles from The Offspring who, incidentally, had only just finished pissing on his own glasses! Rock? It’s a weird and wonderful world alright…

Hold on to your headbands! Episode 15 is here and there’s mucho music for the old men of rock to get their false teeth into. Is Diving For Pearls the greatest undiscovered AOR band of them all? And if so, why did their guitarist end up in ‘Seinfeld’? Did ‘80s rocker Billy Squier create hip hop? But did he also star in the worst promo video of all time? And don’t miss out on the brilliant tale of how HoJo got arrested with British rockers Vardis in a pub near Manchester in the early ‘80s! His mum was livid!
-
Our latest – maybe greatest – episode asks the questions other pods are too chickenshit to go near! Did UFO’s Phil Mogg really call HoJo in 1984 pretending to be the tax man? Should Bon Jovi be paying Black ‘N Blue royalties? Does Quireboys singer Spike honestly look like he’s spent the night in a damp sleeping bag in a dustbin? And why didn’t HoJo have a clue what brown powder was when Pete Way was on the hunt for it?
-
HoJo and Hunnsy bemoan the fact that they never managed to bag a top-level LA rock girlfriend because they never went to legendary ‘80s club hangout The Cathouse. HoJo reveals why Disneyland After Dark ruined his life in the ‘80s and wonders where New American Shame have been all his life. But without a doubt the big issue of this week’s episode is what the f*ck has happened to Tom Keifer’s leg?!
-
Here we go again with another deep dive into the delightfully daft world of classic hard rock. Hunnsy’s been listening to Angel’s ‘Sinful’, wishing he had guitarist Punky Meadows’ hair, and worrying whether vocalist Frank DiMino is in the Mafia. HoJo’s going all art-rock-meets-grunge with Masters Of Reality, and we have a sad update about Ozzy’s dwarf! But the flaming hot topic of the week is this. When is the right time for rock bands to admit that they’re way past their sell-by date and should just knock it on the head?
-
HoJo and Hunnsy are hard at work strategising about how they can get their metal-hating kids the appreciate the glories of hard rock. Looks like they’re failing. Has anyone got any ideas?

What’s the greatest opening track on a debut album? Why did HoJo meet Ozzy Osbourne’s own personal dwarf back in the early ‘80s? And where is he now?

The boys are riding into town tonight by the light of the moon to discuss The Dan Reed Network’s first album and whether it was the only good thing to come out of that awful funk metal movement? Plus! Who remembers The Cult’s ‘Cyril Walker’? Was HoJo a clairvoyant when writing about Duran Duran’s Andy Taylor in Kerrang! back in ’84? And will Hunnsy follow Tommy Lee’s example and wave his penis at his tomato plants? The ruddy marvellous 10th episode of HoJo & Hunnsy’s Hard Rock House is here right now to enlighten you on the issues that really matter in the world of loud!
-
Have the boys taken leave of his senses when they say Enuff Z’Nuff and Donnie Vie are better than The Beatles? Listen as they mount a spirited defence of this controversial viewpoint. Also, when’s the moment when you simply check out of listening to a band’s new releases, and why does it happen? Plus! Is HoJo honestly excited by the return of ‘post hair metallers’ Vain? And why on earth has someone asked Tommy Lee if he’s ever read early 20th century French highbrow novelist Marcel Proust?!
-
The excitable old stagers of rock are back with another dive into the music they’ve been listening to, featuring bad boys Rock City Angels and acceptable grungers Alice In Chains. Plus! Understanding Klaus Meine’s insane dancing, waiting for the social media pile-on after HoJo and Hunnsy dare to criticise Bon Scott, and trying to figure out why a Portuguese frontman who plays ‘leg guitar’ isn’t a superstar?!

It’s Episode 5 by jingo, and HoJo and Hunnsy are wondering whether it’s a wise idea for a rock musician to wear bondage gear, why Manowar and homoeroticism are not such unlikely bedfellows, and whether HoJo is still in fact a sworn-in member of The Legion Of Metal Brothers…
