If David Lee Roth calls, is it really a conversation? Is that a Beach Boy? Is it Christopher Cross? Where’s the top of my hat? It must be the weather, we’re going Crazy from the Heat!
It’s 1984, the Van Halen brothers are back at the ranch. Ted Templeman’s been called up for the England squad. DLR is wearing ski goggles indoors and starting a TV show. We’re in New York, we’re in California, we’re wearing Spandex and jazz shoes! Take a load off dear listener, we’re diving into the David Lee Roth solo era. It’s the Crazy from the Heat EP!

Zilch! Zip! Nil Points!
Buckle up listeners! We're off in our DeLorean and while you're at it, bring a calculator... and you know what – bring your maths homework too! 1 minus 1? Easy peasy... hold on, is this a middling analogy? That's right listeners! We're talking about the magical 1976 demo 'Zero'!
Poor Mrs. Van Halen's not getting a minute's rest from the constant tongue wagging of Gene 'The Terminator' Simmons, Eddie's being asked to write more solos than you can shake an inappropriate song title at, and David Lee Roth... well... he's having a nightmare getting into the venue! All this AND MORE on this month's 'Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Van Halen'!

It can be difficult in these modern times...
Who to turn to?
Who to trust?
Is this fake news?
No, no, no, dear listener. This is ‘A Different Kind of Truth’!
It's 2012 — the year of the London Olympics. A failed attempt to get into the US Squash Court team can mean only one thing. Time for Wolfgang to wrangle up the brothers Van Halen for their first album with David Lee Roth in... well, since Wolfie was but a twinkle in Valerie's eye!
Is Ted Templeman coming back into the fold? Will the album just sound like the love child of Alanis Morissette and Westlife? Only one way to find out... TO THE PODCAST!

Lights! Camera! No.. wait! This is audio only! Press record! Press Record! Oh Cripes, it's in Japanese! What do I do?! Welcome to Tokyo Dome Live in Concert!
The year is 2013, Alex, Eddie and Wolfgang Van Halen have been routing through the deepest darkest corners of their Big Yellow Storage Space, old demos fly across the room, live outtakes are deemed not good enough. But wait! We've a plan... All sparkles and jazz pants, the great David Lee Roth, now part android has been working on a short and artful film in Japanese with a view to showing it for two nights only. I guess that'll solve it? Alright, 4 tickets on the next MegaBus to Tokyo!

A Live Album! A Live Album? Who knows! Can you tell? That’s right, it’s Live: Right Here, Right Now!
Hey! Who’s that there sniffing? David Lee Roth? Can you see Sammy and the gang are busy! No we’re not doing a greatest hits album! Haven’t you heard of a thing called MOMENTUM?! Okay, fine, we’ll do a live album. Can we re-record nearly the whole thing afterwards? Strange request.. but sure! Not a problem! That’s right listeners, we’re Live: Right Here, Right Now! (Well, ish)
That’s right listeners, we’re back and we’re live, just like Eddie, Alex, Michael and Sammy. Well kind of anyway. Happy New Year!

Holes in the squash court... samurai hair... capri pants strewn all over the shop... it's 2004! It's the Best of Both Worlds!
Sometimes you just want to get back in a familiar saddle. Sometimes you've got to make sure your bass playing pal comes along for the ride. Does he still have a mullet? Flippin' 'eck! Is it the mid-naughties now? No matter what the reason may be, The Red Rocker isn't taking no for an answer, but he isn't saying much else to ol' EVH.
Side note... is that a smoke-filled stack of scantily-clad woman in the distance? GULP! All this and SO much more in another glorious Ain't Talkin' 'Van Halen extravaganza!!

Fax Machines filled with tornado facts, Ted Templeman by the telephone, David Lee Roth taking a break from his painting and decorating! We're going over Greatest Hits, Volume 1!
Isn't it ironic? Don't you think? All these singers, a slice at a time, like an... erm, yeah a lead singer in Van Halen! Sometimes you just can catch a break if you've a decent set of pipes at 5150! The ultimate in will-they-won't-they. We're swinging from Hagar to Malloy to Roth to Cherone! It's a storm! A twister! (Just don't bleeding sing about it.) All this and so much more in this episode of Ain't Talkin' Van Halen!

What do you do when it’s the late 90s and you're down a singer? Well you bag yourself a friend of the A-Team... oh, and Gary Cherone! We’re talking Van Halen III of course!
Things are TENSE at 5150. Michael Anthony still has the mullet but his presence is scarce. So who's going to sing over these experimental and oh-so-long songs? Is that the flared pant of a Mr. DLR? And who's had their spray paint out... there's PornoGraffiti everywhere! It's got to be Extreme's Gary Cherone! But hang on, who's going to glue this all together? Why, it's TV Composer Extraordinaire Mike 'A-Team theme' Post! We love it when a plan (sort of) comes together - enjoy Van Halen 3 listeners!

Steady that egg friend! And while you’re at it, watch those conjoined children on that there see-saw, that’s right we’re talking Van Halen’s Balance!
Things ever got so bad that you headed to Bryan Adams’ place up in Canada? Just couldn’t be bothered to write lyrics and hoped no one would notice? Smashed a piano to pieces and hoped you’d do a good cover up with some Pritt Stick? Rocked a mullet with conviction far too late into the 90s? Then you’re sure to relate to the antics of Sammy, Eddie, Michael and Alex as we discuss Van Halen’s Balance!

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it an acronym for a naughty word? Come on down to our Van Halen college, we're talking about For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge!
Have you been taking album title recommendations from boxers who's facts don't necessarily check out? Keep recording whatever power tools are knocking about your squash court? Maybe you're trying to make your drums sound absolutely massive in that very same squash court! Well, whaddya know! The brothers Van Halen were trying to do the very same things during the recording of the Hagar classic For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge.

For god's sake wipe that smile off your face. I'm not interested in what that other fella has been up to, it's time for us to talk OU812!
Have you got noisy neighbours writing riffs? Are they wanting to come into your house smoking a cigarette? Have you been trying to get away from it all? Are you trying to write some lyrics that will clearly be influenced by your fascination with beautiful Mexican resorts? If you can relate to any of the above, or even if you'd just like to, let's dig DEEP into OU812!

What's that coming over the hill? It's blazing red, it's maybe insane, it's wearing Capri Pants? Look out! It's 5150 time!
You know what listeners, it's really time you tended to that rattling noise your Lamborghini makes when you pull out of the Wal-Mart car park! While you're getting the old boy a service, you couldn't pick us up a new front man for the greatest rock and roll band of all time could you? Templeman's out jogging with DLR, Mo Ostin is smelling with his finger and the synths are in overdrive all this and MORE in our Van Hagar 5150 extravaganza!

That heartfelt poem to a Calvin Klein model can wait! It's part 2 of 1984!
Grab a racquet listeners, we're heading back to everyone's favourite squash court / recording studio, 5150 to finish off 1984! Eddie is having trouble with his AM radio, and The Doobie Brothers keep knocking on the door to suggest synth lines! Meanwhile, present day DLR is having trouble with OJ Simpsonesque gloves and stalkers!

Buy a packet of cigarettes and give them to a baby with wings - it's 1984!
Well not just yet, it's 1983... and plans to build a squash court go awry. In fact our hero Eddie Van Halen's only gone and bloody built a studio! 5150 levels of crazy, am I right listeners? Plus that old grumpybags Ted Templeman is sticking his nose in everyone's business AGAIN, big bro Alex is getting poorly wrists due to the poor construction of 80s synth drums and DLR, well, he just wants to rollerblade at 6am. Talk about a House of Pain!Stay tuned for Part 2 of the 1984 extravaganza very soon listeners!

Strap on those oxygen canisters kids, we're going Diver Down!
1982... Eddie and the gang just got back from a tour and are about to settle down for a bit of TV, coffee and a biscuit when ol' DLR smashes through the door with visions of covers, dressing up as Napoleon and making Mike be a samurai! Queue pesky WB asking for an album, and the next thing we know the coffee's gone cold and the biscuits are stale - nightmare. Happy Trails!
