Podcasts by Rush Strutter Zep Magik
Mike Bessler and Kevin McElvaney are pro wrestling writers who moonlight as music aficionados. As the title of this podcast suggests, we primarily focus on material by rock powerhouses Rush, Kiss, and Led Zeppelin, but every so often, we’ll draw the proverbial “wild card” and discuss an artist beyond the bounds of this titanic troika. For each episode of RSZM, we select an album by one of these artists and discuss our personal recollections of the record, talk about the history behind the album, and go track-by-track and discuss each song.
Also, the title of the show was Kevin’s idea.
