This week on Social Blend, we are joined by Jeremy Rosen from Roadrunner Records, as we remember and pay tribute to Peter Steele, the frontman for Type O Negative who sadly passed away last week. We also play some new music from Ratt and Dommin on this episode, so stick around to listen to the metal!
We take a look at the career of Leonard Nimoy, who announced his retirement from acting today – and the impact he has had on pop culture. Jay talks about how excited he is about Resident Evil; and we also have a chat about a lot of other movies including Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Clash of the Titans, and more. We also reflect on the 15th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing, and discuss how modern tech and social media would impact such an event and public reaction in this day and age.
Hitler reacts to the news that all of the "Hitler Reacts" videos have been pulled from YouTube; Jay gets called both a ‘dick’ and ‘asshole’ for not watching Doctor Who, and Andrew Zilch plays with his exercise balls – all this and more on this week’s edition of Social Blend!
Presented by Greg Davies (cGt2099 from cGt2099.com) and Jay Fowler (SilentJay74 from JuicySnake.com) the Social Blend is a fun, and hard-hitting, podcast, with no respect for rules. We try to make the main focus of the show to be Mixx.com, and other social media sites; but we usually just end up talking about whatever comes to mind!
