Regarding...Series

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?”

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 VHIII⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem.

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.

S3. Episode 12. Primary / Ballot or the Bullet

Episode 12. Primary / Ballot or the Bullet featuring Chris Airey of Project EVH! Join your ever colluding and conspiratorial co-hosts Scotzo, Chaz, and Wolfie for a lively discussion on some of the greasiest, stankiest sitar and guitar playing you’ve ever heard. Chris has written extensively covering Ed’s playing continuously since 2014. He’s got a lot to say on these tracks and the album as a whole. This was a conversation so good, we did it twice!
