Episode 10. Year To The Day featuring none other than the Mad Reduxer himself, Kevin Brown of The Tom Petty Project, The Seaside Pod Review, The Ultimate Catalog Clash and the forthcoming Rock Court! Join your ever diligent, vigilant, and integrus co-hosts Scotzo, Chaz, and Wolfie for an animated discussion on Edward's blusiest guitar composition, and whether that works with all that vocal, lyrics, presentation stuff...and does the Redux do anything to add glitter to make things gold?? The Mad Reduxer himself contemplates reduxing the redux...and more.

Season 3 of the Regarding...Series - Welcome to the ultimate rediscovery of Van Halen’s most controversial album.

At the outset, we represent a good spectrum of views: Wolfie is 100% no opinion on the album; Scott leans more positive but is in the middle and has some dislikes; and Chaz is ... appreciative as a student of Edward Van Halen, and empathetic to his artistic cause, but not a big fan of the final output overall. To put it mildly. How Many Say Why is all they could be heard muttering to themselves, in a sea-shanty sort of sway. How Many Say Why? How Many Say Why? Proudly sponsored by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠podcastle.ai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fourstringmedia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, not by Romney's Everest Kendal Mints or Buffalo Chicken Wings in general.

Episode 9. Josephina featuring Sean and Todd McGinity of The Sean Geek and Fast Fret Podcast, and Kelsey Van Halen of And The Podcast Will Rock fame! Join your ever chipper and open-minded co-hosts Scotzo, Chaz, and Wolfie, as they dive deep with our guests on a song that several of our co-hosts and guests had a strong opinion on coming into the discussion. The discussion is spirited and pointed and balanced, as always. This is a crowd that knows how to command the microphone. Tune in for a fun listen through a polarizing track.

Remember, Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo. Listen to their ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Redux version of VHIII⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem.

Episode 11. Album Commentary with author and Van Halen Historian Greg Renoff. As one of the most celebrated chroniclers of rock ‘n’ roll excess, Greg has a particular point of view when it comes to Van Halen III, and he’s not afraid to express it. Join your intrepid cohosts Scotzo and Chaz (Wolfie couldn't make it,) as they take in this episode that’s part history lesson, part rock and roll therapy session with the man who helped Ted Templeman tell his story, and has heard it all from those that know along the way. A man with a deep connection to the band and who counts among the I’s when asked, “”How many say why?”
