In a wildly romantic gesture HoJo celebrates 31years of marriage by playing his wife Ratt’s ‘Invasion Of Your Privacy’ and three Saxon albums back-to-back. Watch out for a quickie divorce! Find out what he’s been up to on a heavy metal field trip to Birmingham, where soon-to-be documentary subjects Judas Priest still rule supreme!

He was there right at the birth of the Sunset Strip sleaze rock scene as a teenage wannabe rock star. Yet despite being surrounded by narcotics both inside and outside the family home somehow Tracii Guns kept his head screwed on while others were losing theirs and is still here 40 years later with plenty of tattoos and all of his marbles intact. The main man of L.A. Guns stops by for a good chinwag with HoJo and Hunnsy, discussing a ton of great shit including Axl’s ass ‘n’ chaps combo, the “unhealthy ego stroke” of women falling at your feet just because you’re in a band, the black and white hair guy from ‘Decline Of Western Civilization’ who became Tracii’s attorney, and why his dad couldn’t believe it when Tracii said he had no Valium for him! Strap yourselves in. It’s a wild, wild ride.

Episodi mancanti?

L.A. Guns main man, guitarist Tracii Guns, join the boys to explain what it was really like at the Heart of Hair (or maybe the Heart Of Darkness) that was Hollywood’s Sunset Strip. Beware! It’s not for those of a queasy disposition. Plus! Are Jellyfish the greatest band that never made it ever? Does The Who’s rock opera ‘Tommy’ still stand up 56 years later? And what on earth has Bryan Adams got to do with all of this?
-
…otherwise the boys might stop talking about sexual deviance at Donington, Ratt invading your privacy, and Eddie Money’s mum playing mah-jong – just as they do this week! All you have to do to avoid that catastrophic, nay cataclysmic outcome is take our pod-based survey that takes less than a minute by clicking on this link. We thank you for your service!

Hunnsy’s been watching too much footage of the M3 Festival when he should have been working. Could your intrepid hosts stage a Motorway Services Festival in the UK? And are you listening sponsors? And why is Faith No More’s ‘The Real Thing’ album the spookiest thing on this week’s pod? There’s only one way to find out. Start listening!
-
Why were ‘70s hard rock stage shows so useless? Is there any mileage in a band called Stuffed Animal Museum? Is Anthrax’s unheralded ‘We’ve Come For You All’ album actually better than Metallica’s ‘Ride The Lightning’? Has HoJo got beef with Lars Ulrich? Will Mrs. Hunns force the guys to build their own studio so she can get on with her work? Looks like it’s a special ‘Question Time’ edition of HoJo & Hunnsy’s Hard Rock House. You’re very welcome!
-
Ronnie Dio’s lyrics. WTF? Would you get up for Heavy Metal Half Hour at Hunnsy’s wedding? Did a band called Australian Crawl write ‘Sweet Child O' Mine’ and why hasn’t this caused a rock ‘n’ roll furore? Plus! Hunnsy gets very excited about Queensrÿche’s ‘Rage For Order’ album from 1986, while HoJo puts his stack heels on to stomp all over Sweet’s 1974 release ‘Sweet Fanny Adams’.
-
Hunnsy starts preparing for his annual ride to Download, while HoJo has a hang with two very different rock stars, learning that Pantera’s Philip Anselmo loves his boxing and former Styx man Dennis DeYoung is the proud owner of a potty mouth. This is the kind of inside info you just can’t get anywhere else! The boys also discuss the week’s listening with the debut album by Aussie rockers Kings of The Sun from 1988 and Styx’s breakthrough album ‘Equinox’ from 1975 (blimey, that’s 50 years ago!) on the death decks.
-
Hunnsy’s very excited after seeing The Darkness, but there are some disgruntled fans out there. He’s also listening to Girl’s debut album ‘Sheer Greed’ where the boys ponder whether – irony alert – Kiss fans really spat on them because they wore make-up! Meanwhile HoJo is revisiting Led Zep’s ‘Presence’ album and deciding whether two immense songs make it a worthwhile exercise. The big debate is whether it’s David Lee Roth or Dave Lee Roth? And remember coloured vinyl?
-
Have you ever been to the Stuffed Animal Museum in Tring, stoned or otherwise? Why does this have anything to do with HoJo and Hunnsy’s Hard Rock House? You’ll have to listen to find out. Plus! Hunnsy relives his youth with Hanoi Rocks’ ‘Back To Mystery City’, while HoJo big sup John Waite’s debut solo album ‘Ignition’. And we get Nils from Norway on the show to thank the nation for their support for our pod, and to find out all about Gumby life in the frozen north!

Bonjour. Buenos dias. Guten Morgen. Bom dia. Your favourite ageing rockers are back in the saddle for a slightly weird episode that we’re putting down to HoJo’s recent close encounter with food poisoning. Why weird? Well he’s been listening to Sleep Token, the least metal metal band of all time and a group that was formed as recently as 2016. Surely that isn’t the spirit! Hunnsy tries to get things back on track by talking about “British American Rock Supergroup” Chequered Past and an album from 1984. That’s much more in the regular wheelhouse. And hot news! Top Norwegian gumby Nils Brekke Svensson is coming on the show next week to tell us about gumby life in Norway! How exciting!
-
Hello people. The boys are in their respective heavy metal hot seats once more for this week’s chit, and indeed chat, about the world of old man rock. Hunnsy can’t wait to dust off the spandex for a Pretty Boy Floyd/Jet Boy gig in London next September. HoJo really isn’t excited by Hunnsy’s listening choice of White Lion and instead tries to convince us that Kiss’ ‘Dressed To Kill’ is an overlooked classic by singing like Paul Stanley. Is there really any need?
-
Another week, another chance to ask a silly amount of questions! Is Hunnsy’s Pat Travers vinyl the loudest record ever made? Can we get a Norwegian listener to tell us why we’re loved up there? Is Guy Speranza really doing wardrobe on ‘Slow Horses’? Would you wear a battle jacket? Were More a great undiscovered NWOBHM act? And was the production of their ‘Warhead’ album sonically better than Journey’s ‘Infinity’?
-
We’re back, back, back with a bang, bang, bang. Yes, it’s episode 34 heading right atcha and the boys are chit-chatting away over such varied topics as why Hunnsy’s AI version of a Foreigner album has been causing a stir, what’s the greatest back tattoo ever witnessed, and why rockers T*sla are in serious need of a rebrand. Also, Hunnsy’s espousing the virtues of Sunset Strip hardy perennials L.A. Guns’ ‘Hollywood Vampires’ album, while HoJo has had a rush of thrash blood to the head checking out Pantera’s ‘Vulgar Display Of Power’. Don’t make him fucking hostile whatever you do!
-
Hello there ladies and gentlemen, hello there ladies and gents. Are you ready to rock? Are you ready or not? HoJo and Hunnsy are back again, and they’re still banging on about that Black Sabbath gig! Why? Because HoJo was chatting to Sabs main man Tony Iommi and having lots of fun doing it. Want to know when and why drummer Bill Ward was painted gold? All you have to do is listen. In other news, Hunnsy reveals that he’s designing a Foreigner album sleeve, while everyone gets their Pipers confused. Is this the kind of hard rockin’ chat the world needs? Of course it is!!
-
Well the boys are back in the ring to rake another swing, and just to keep things interesting they’ve decided to do a ‘reverse episode’. What does that even mean? Well you’re going to have to listen to find out. Stories? We got ’em. HoJo getting flipped the bird by irate Spanish fans, keyboard legend Don Airey telling Hunnsy to fuck off, and Tony Iommi recommending desserts to HoJo. This is the stuff that dream podcasts are made of. And that’s before we even get into dissections of lesser-known albums by ZZ Top and Aerosmith. What are you waiting for? Get listening!
-
Has Hunnsy taken leave of his senses? Why isn’t he ‘frothing at the gills’ at the prospect of witnessing Black Sabbath, one of the greatest bands of all time, in the flesh before they bow out? Oh well, his loss. He’s definitely excited about new material from The Darkness, though. So much so that he’s talking about it even when he’s only heard three tracks from the forthcoming ‘Dreams On Toast’ album! HoJo, meanwhile, is tipping his hat to The Mighty Sabs by revisiting 1978’s ‘Never Say Die’, a much-maligned album that HoJo claims has been dismissed unfairly. And want to know what Ozzy thought of Bob Marley’s spliff smoking when the pair met around the time of ‘NSD”? Here’s where you’ll find out! Enjoy, bluntsters!
-
It may have taken the boys a dog’s age to get their shit together, but it’s finally here, the Holy Grail of AOR. Yes, it’s Diving For Pearls’ reclusive frontman Danny Malone hooking up with HoJo and Hunnsy for a deep dive exclusive interview where The Man With The Golden Tonsils discusses his career and the story behind the album that makes Hunnsy wet his pants every time he hears it, ‘Diving For Pearls’. Our AOR-loving co-host has promised this interview will break the internet and make him and HoJo stars. So no pressure then, single digit listeners!
-
Another seven days we’ll never get back. But at least there‘s another episode of HoJo & Hunnsy’s Hard Rock House to make up for it. And what an episode it is! The boys have finally – finally – pulled their fingers out to bring you their interview with Diving For Pearls frontman Danny Malone, fanboy Hunnsy’s favourite AOR band of all time. He’s promised that this exclusive is going to break the AOR internet, so there’s a challenge for the single digit listener! All this and chat about albums by Dare and The Firm. What could possibly be better?!
-
It’s that time of the week again, where two old men go on and on about the glory days of rock while hoping they can hold out for the length of the podcast without getting caught short! This week Hunnsy gets all nostalgic for Venom’s ‘Black Metal’ album, HoJo remembers visiting the studio while Diamond Head were making their career-stalling work of genius ‘Canterbury’, and we give you some insight into sadly departed guitar legend John Sykes’ contributions to Whitesnake’s classic ‘1987’ album via some audio clips from a 2018 interview he gave to HoJo. RIP John.
