This week we welcome back our good friend and music festival world traveler, Melissa (@METALCHATPOD) We get caught up with Melissas latest journey to Greece with Fearghal which included some good ol fashioned road stories and a lot of music and beer. We chat about a lot of social media mutuals along with future travel plans and bands and festivals and beer and wine and all kind of shenanigans.

The first round of the Priest Family Madness tournament concludes with two albums that are at opposite ends of most Priest fans album rankings with Killing Machine Vs. Demolition. The end of the first round also brings us to the end of season five.

The Spinner year was 2008 and there were no surprises, just great album recommendations.

This week we welcome Jonas onto the Priestcast. Jonas is way too smart to be on a podcast with Jay. Luckily Jeff was able to have an intelligent conversation with our brilliant guest. Jonas tells us about how his metal journey started. Yes-it involves an older brother and No-it does not involve Kiss! We discuss a ton of bands and genres including Post Metal which Jay had never heard of. Jonas lets us in on how metal inspired his carer path and what roll metal played in his view of the world and in parenting. A fantastic discussion that left us wanting more.

The Priest Family Madness Tournament rolls on with an interesting matchup between Edge Of the World by Tipton, Entwistle and Powell and Firepower. Any guesses how this one went?

The Spinner year was 2001. We all had awesome picks this time around.

This week we welcome in our favorite smart ass and fellow Kiss hater, Gavin O'Connor. Gav is a Twitter legend with his controversial and witty takes on music and politics and life in general. We hear Gav's music and Priest story along with a chat about Northern Irelands music scene. Of course a lot of music is discussed that Jay knows nothing about and Jeff could teach a class on.

Our Priest Family Madness tournament is both timely and historic with Judas Priest OG Al Atkins record Victim of Changes Vs. birthday boy British Steel. Both Al and British Steel played important rolls in the history of metal.

Speaking of history,the Spinner year was the historic year of 1975. Wow!

This week we welcome back a Priestcast OG, Hattie. We get caught up with Hattie and see what she's been up to. We get sidetracked though and end up chatting about the culinary delicacy of 2 stroke oil and we debate whether coffee is too liquidy. Hattie has a fascination and obsession with Boston and also tells us we need a sound board. One of us apparently frequently says weird things and one of us has ruined all of his plain white T's with salsa stains. Of course a lot of music is discussed as well.

The Priest Family Madness Tournament rolls on with Halford's Resurrection Vs Judas Priest Nostradamus. Will Jay's love for Nostradamus or Jeff's dislike of it take it over Resurrection? We'll let Hattie decide.

The Spinner year was 2002. Great year for Jeff, slim pickins for Jay. Of course we make interesting.

This week we welcome back our good friend Squashy. @FUTURESQUASH767 is always a fun and interesting conversation because he really knows his music. We get caught up on all of Squashy's latest concert escapades and he always hips us to a band or two we've never heard of. Jeff and Squashy shoot the breeze about a bunch of bands Jay's never heard as well as albums both new and old that are worthy of discussion. We also hear Jay's idiotic dating profile before we get into the Priest Family Madness tournament. This week's battle features the historic and influential Stained Class Vs. The Sinner Rides Again by KK's Priest. We could try to build some suspense regarding the winner but we respect you all too much for that.

The Spinner year was 2015. We all picked some great records definitely worth discussing.

This week we welcome in Casper the friendly Ghost and Priest and metal fan. We have a rad conversation about a variety of things including how her dad put her aboard the Crazy Train to metal. We also discuss how Casper is a great humanitarian and wants freedom And Justice For All. Jeff and Casper reminisce about how every metal head knows or knew a Scandinavian exchange student named Bjorn that introduced them to foreign metal.

The Priest Family Madness Tournament rolls on with an interesting battle between two Priest records that could not be any more different- Defenders Of The Faith Vs. Jugulator. Could we have another first round upset?

The Spinner year is the only year Judas Priest released two records,1978. Jeff is not a 70s fan and it's Jays favorite decade of music. What will Casper pick?

This week we welcome back to the Priestcast our favorite Londoner, Connor. Connor is a NWOTHM expert as well as a fantastic music podcaster and documentarian. Connor is also a wannabe teacher apparently and assigned Jeff and Jay some homework involving three bands and records they had never heard. Of course we give oral book reports on those three records as well as discuss a bunch of other bands and some upcoming tours.

The Priest Family Madness Tournament rolls on with a fun matchup between two records released 46 years apart with Sin After Sin Vs. Horns For A Halo by Elegant Weapons.

Never Fear, The Spinner is here with the Dark year of 1992.

This week we get caught up with our good friend and first ever guest on the podcast, Sam. Sam is always a great and thoughtful conversation because he is about the smartest person we know. We sit around and talk about everything and anything from country music to local soda pop and everything in between. Of course we talk alot of metal and even review the new Megadeth.

The Priest Family Madness tournament rolls on with an interesting matchup between two largely forgotten albums, Priest's Ram It Down Vs. Fight Small Deadly Space. I think Vegas had this as a pickum going in.

The reloaded Spinner spat out 1976. Jay was in a Rush to discuss his choice while Jeff is not the biggest 70s fan but hit a home run with his pick. Sam as always had a thoughtful and excellent pick.
