Stage monsters, diva superspies and nicking your granny's apples! It's the end of Chat out of Hell series two!
The questions everyone wants to know this time:
- Has Jim Steinman ever actually been on a motorbike?
- Did the Shadow's catchphrase warrant being awkwardly shoehorned into a Steinman classic?
Who is the bigger villain, Meat Loaf's stage persona or the real Jim Steinman?
PLUS Sam tests out a new game in the quiz slot and realises that not everyone remembers the electronic dancehall smash hits of the 80s as well as him.
Chat out of Hell WILL RETURN on December 2nd. Be there or don't. Up to you.

Physical impossibilities, inexplicable bagpipes and Jim Steinman trying to be sexy? Sorry. Two out of three ain't bad.
But we're not here for that! We're here for the big questions like:
Can we have some free A1 Sauce?
What's the plot of the Adam Sandler Film That's My Boy?
Seriously, can we have some free A1 Sauce?

Dance in My Pants by Jim Steinman from the album Bad for Good (1981) -

What was Jim Steinman's refridgerator-bed really like?
How gross is that ancient hallway?
Why is Hulk Hogan such an awful man?
Once you've chewed those over we'll see you on Monday September 9th to talk about Everything Louder than Everything Else and Dance in my Pants.

Chat out of Hell 2: Chat into Hell kicks off here.
We finally learn who won the cheeky bat mascot contest, Sam gets too involved in learning about A1 Sauce's "Sing For Your Beef" and we do get around to answering a few questions about I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That). Questions like:
Why does nobody know what "that" is when it's explained in the song?
Who directed this ridiculous music video?
Which famous retired Special Forces soldier cites this song as his inspiration for signing up?
CooH is back on its fortnightly release schedule so we'll see you on Monday 26th August to talk about Hulk Hogan's Theme and Out of the Frying Pan and into the Fire.

Chat out of Hell cruises to the end of its summer break with a special FILM CLUB edition.
Emma has been dying to watch the Steinman-soundtracked 80s teen action flick Streets of Fire for months now. And Sam has never seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
But will at least one of them regret wasting two hours on this? Almost certainly.
Chat out of Hell returns for series 2 on Monday 12th August - see you there, Loafers!

The Train of Love chugs us along to the end of the line. By which we mean, series one of Chat out of Hell. But there's a few more questions to answer first. Questions like:
Who knew Meat Loaf was so big into Indiana Jones fan fiction?
What do Meat Loaf and Johnny Cash not have in common?
Which major stage show based on music by Jim Steinman is touring the UK in 2025, and how excited does this make Emma?
CooH is taking a short break after this ep but will be back on the 12th August, giving a whole episode to I'd Do Anything For Love. Perhaps we'll do a little cheeky bonus something in the meantime. While you're waiting, why not tell a friend about us?

Meat Loaf's sexiest song makes it to the table. Join Sam and Emma as they delive into Paradise by the Dashboard Light then Nowhere Fast, and have a stab at the real questions in life :
Which is sexier, a woman on a motorbike or a girl band?
What's the best lascivious sound you can make?
What IS a huckleberry?
Next time: We'll wind up series on in style with Loaf/Steinman's last song Train of Love and watch the dumbest music video Meat Loaf has ever made, with I'd Lie For You (And That's The Truth)

In the wake of Brighton Fringe we needed some slammin' music to stir us from our lethargy. And this episode provided it in spades. It's All Coming Back to Me Now and Modern Girl gave us all sorts of nonsense to chew over:
Three different versions of one bangin' power ballad? Got it.
Two music videos about ghosts and one about filth? Sorted.
A visit with Captain Kirk to the planet where the only surviving adult is Meat Loaf? Regrettably that too.
Next time: Emma sticks with her copy of Bad Attitude as she invites us to listen to Nowhere Fast, while Sam sticks with the classics and treats everyone to a Paradise By the Dashboard Light.

Comedians Emma Crossland and Sam Wilkinson know a bit about Meat Loaf but, as they're rapidly learning, not enough to do a review podcast. Still, they'll give it a good old go.
This episode ventures into some lovely territory as we discuss Martha and the merits of Tom Waits's original versus Meat Loaf's swelling orchestral arrangement, then we all feel a bit sick as we talk about Where the Rubber Meets the Road's horrible sexual politics.
Plus there's a bit of chat about the lovely time that Emma's just had / will be about to have going to have had on holiday and we do a plug for our show at Brighton Fringe (https://www.brightonfringe.org/events/crossland-wilkinson-tea-and-coffee-on-arrival/)
Next time we'll dive into what happens when Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman fall out as we discuss It's All Coming Back to Me Now and Modern Girl.

This episode sees the pair dive into Hot Summer Night and its creepy weird opening dialogue, before getting deep into why the smoky dive bar of Midnight at the Lost and Found would never work in Britain.
