    00:16:41 What Jason Ashcraft's Helion Prime brings to the table

    00:23:11 Why not bring everyone together

    00:24:43 International bands are hard

    00:30:40 There's no bad blood or drama

    00:32:59 The "I miss Heather" people

    00:33:37 The frontperson effect is unavoidable

    00:35:47 The Pain of checking Reddit threads

    00:37:55 But the positives are there too

    00:39:22 Rotating vocalists as the cast on a musical

    01:10:46 But kinda wasted the chance

    01:12:07 Tobi the goodest boi (slightly doxxing Kyle)

    01:13:06 Kyle and Jason keep being at the same shows

    01:14:07 Night Demon, the opener for the US leg of the tour

    01:15:16 The BA show had the best setlist

    01:18:50 The songs Jason wants to see live

    01:19:51 Kyle's dream BG setlist and requesting songs

    01:21:39 The value of experience and continuous practice

    01:22:43 Perspective on what a great performance is

    01:24:57 The Sozos Tangent part 2
