For more than four decades, Tommy Lee has been one of rock music's most recognizable drummers and personalities. As a founding member of Mötley Crüe, he helped define the excess, spectacle, and sound of the Sunset Strip era, earning a reputation as one of hard rock's ultimate hellraisers. Now, 45 years into the band's career, Tommy joins us to talk about the band getting back on the road, their evolving dynamic, and his newly reimagined Atmos-certified release ‘Tommyland Rides Again.’

The conversation also revisits some of the wildest chapters of Tommy's life, from touring with Ozzy Osbourne (and getting into serious trouble with Sharon) to the reality behind rock's most infamous stories and the band's journey with sobriety after Dr. Feelgood. Plus, we discuss his new song with Chad Tepper, "Stupid World," the infamous rotating drum kit setup, the loss of rock mystique, and much more. Tommy also reveals an unexpected part of his upbringing — tap dancing and ballet lessons as a kid — so there's that too!

Ryan Tedder — frontman of OneRepublic and songwriter of countless hits for others — returns to the couch for the first time since 2020. New OneRepublic music is incoming, but we spend most of the interview discussing the state and evolution of the industry, plus we get the inside track on the artists he’s written songs with and for recently — BTS, Rosalía, Tate McRae — and some of the more historical hits he’s had a hand in (Beyoncé, U2, Lil Nas X, to name a few). Names are dropped, anecdotes are shared and if you’re fan of any of the above, plus Diplo, Avicii, Sombr, Christian music, and Timabland, you won’t wanna miss this.

6LACK has always made emotionally intelligent music, and ‘Love Is The New Gangster’ is the latest installment in the evolution of Ricardo Valdez Valentine Jr. The Atlanta-raised, multi-Grammy-nominated artist pops into the studio for the first time to discuss his fourth album and the vibe is thoughtful and reflective. The 33-year-old opens up about numerology, purpose, shadow work, and the idea that simply writing about your pain isn’t the same as actually healing it.
Deeply inspired by his two children (who grace the album’s artwork), 6lack discusses gentle parenting, understanding your own parents more deeply once you become one yourself, the shift that occurred when he cut off his locs (and the history hair holds), and why he feels like he’s on a very intentional path.
We also talk Atlanta’s musical DNA, battle rapping with Young Thug as a teen, and then collaborating with him properly later on (and on this record), working with his partner QUIN (also the mother of his second daughter) on the track “Out of Body,” writing with your partner about your partner, working with Kehlani, Lil Tjay, Leon Thomas, Timbaland, Gorillaz and Elton John (on “The Pink Phantom”) — and why ‘Love Is The New Gangster’ reframes love not as softness, but as strength.

Maisie Peters is back with her third album ‘Florescence’ and wow is she in a different headspace / life-space from when we talked to her last in 2023 circa ‘The Good Witch.’

Happily in love and cohabiting with her boyfriend and her sister (the co-host of their podcast Twinhood) and her sister’s boyfriend (more on that later), between this record and the last the 25-year-old took stock, dealt with vocal polyps, fell in love with her childhood sweetheart, and wrote a banging album.

‘Florescence’ features collabs with everyone from Julia Michaels to Marcus Mumford (do you think he’s the Internet’s boyfriend too?!), plus single “My Regards” boasts a video directed by Amelia ‘Chicken Shop Date’ Dimoldenberg and stars Benito Skinner. Her work is full of Easter eggs. Like the nod to her fave teen film ‘Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging,’ in her album trailer, which also stars the lead actor Georgia Groome.

The winner of the inaugural Grammy for Best Traditional Country Album for his third album, ‘Ain’t In It for My Health,’ Zach Top didn’t come up through the usual Nashville machine. Born in Sunnyside, Washington, he was fronting his family’s bluegrass band at seven, dropped out of college in Colorado, posted covers of country legends on Facebook, faced label rejection, and somehow wound up opening for his hero George Strait.

We talk about keeping traditional country alive in a modern industry, the tension between career ambition and settling down, heartbreak, touring, virality, and whether success changes your relationship with the art itself. Plus: cold plunging, getting home schooled, building houses, making swords, ‘Lord of the Rings,’ and so much more.
