Social BlendLet the insanity begin! For the 173rd edition of Social Blend, we’re joined by Jeremy Rosen from Roadrunner Records, and Terr Ciavarra aka Media Nox. We kick off the show paying tribute to and remembering Steve Jobs who sadly passed away today. Then we move into the show content by looking back on the Amanda Knox case, which we had been discussing right here on the podcast back when the mainstream media were ignoring it. We dig into the case a little and debate the recent news of her acquittal, release, and subsequent return to the United States.

Joining the 99%, we discuss the recent developments of Occupy Wall Street – which seems to be quite a movement beginning to take off in some unexpected places across the United States. We highlight what the media is doing and why they are falcon punching Occupy Wall Street, and how fucked up that is!

But it’s not all ‘srs bsnss’… we mention the finale to Doctor Who Series 6, while on the music front, we look at an abhorrent article by Yahoo claiming that artists like Ozzy Osbourne and Iron Maiden are amongst the “worst” of metal – WTF?? We remember Nirvana‘s Nevermind, with this year being the 20th anniversary of the release of the groundbreaking album – and later look at the long awaited marriage of Gene Simmons from KISS and Shannon Tweed.

Jeremy has also brought some tunes for us on this episode. His first selection is from SignMeTo.RoadrunnerRecords.com, and is a new band called Bad Salad. Also from Roadrunner, we play tracks from Opeth, Dream Theater, and Slipknot. And for our WTF story of the week, we turn to a story that “started with an Internet ad for ‘companionship‘…

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.
