Happy Halloween! Today's topic is — today's TWO topics — are Hanneman's rapidly escalating, painful physical ailement, plus a lawsuit from heavyweight legal outfit.
Last week, Patreon supporters heard a long episode about Slayer's collaboration with Ice-T, the album Divine Intervention (which was their first with new drummer Paul Bostaph), and the phenomenon that is CARVING SLAYER INTO YOUR WILLING FLESH.
Next week: Patreon supporters hear about Slayer's polarizing album of punk covers, Undisputed Attitude. Which f*king RULES.
SHOW NOTES:
Video, Live 1995: Slayer Live as a Trio, No Jeff Episode 27 features chapter 29 from the book Slayer 66 & 2/3, "Hanneman's World of Hurt." By then, Jeff was suffering from arthritis. And it affect his ability to play. Regularly, when the band played some new songs, Jeff would step offstage, and the band would play as a trio. Witness this live clip of "Sex. Murder. Art." (lyrics by Araya, music by King). It's cued to that part, but you can watch the whole show here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOVtvHhCC-Q&t=2702s
The entire LIVE INTRUSION concert home video from 1995-6. It starts with Michael Meyer having SLAYER carved into his forearm. We recapped this incident at length last week.

After some introductory episodes, Talkin' Slayer tells the story of the Los Angeles heavy metal institution, in chronological order: how the band happened, when things fell apart, how they put them back together, and what it all meant — no, MEANS.
After Episode Nine, Patreon supporters receive every weekly episode. Free listeners get every other episode, every other week. Learn more at Patreon.com/SlayerBook.
The Talkin' Slayer podcast program show is written, deeply researched, lightly edited, and mostly rehearsed, with some production value. This is an all-killer-no-filler podcast: The episode proper begins after roughly 60 seconds of introduction, tops. No need to skip the first 15 minutes. The music changes every week.
Ferris is an award-winning writer. He has worked for Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, The AV Club, and Decibel magazine. He is a fan. He has opinions. He is the author of something like nine books, depending how you count them. Two are about Slayer. The first one is an entire book about the classic thrash album Reign in Blood, which is part of the fairly prestigious 33 1/3 book series.
His bigger Slayer book, though, is the 2023 update of the full-on band biography "Slayer 66 & 2/3: A Metal Band Biography, POSTMORTEM Edition." (This is the third edition; it was previously known as "Slayer 66 & 2/3: The Jeff and Dave Years...."). And that book is mostly what he'll be talking about when we're talkin' Slayer. Most episodes are audio adaptations of chapters from that book. Some have original and/or bonus material.

Every week, host D.X. Ferris presents another chapter — sometimes two or three — in the history of Slayer, from the groundbreaking group's pre-history in Chile to their hazy, fractured, mysterious end in 2019. Slayer was the first Big Four band to break up. Why? Well, it's a long story...

Next Episode
Talkin' Slayer, MEGA Episode 29: Bostaph's Back, Slayer's Experimental Moment, Music From Slower, Album Art, AND Slayer vs. Minor Threat's Ian MacKaye. ALL!
Today's topic — today's five topics — are 1. Paul Bostaph's quick return to the band, and 2. Slayer's collaboration with German digital hardcore/techno band Atari Teenage Riot. Then because those are short, you get a little taste of two episodes that are exclusives for Patreon supporters: 3. Learn about some early album artwork. 4. And learn what Slayer and Minor Threat dudes had to say about each other. 5. THEN a long, sludgy, sexxy, siren-call co-ed cover of "War Ensemble" by all-star stone squad SLOWER.
