Taylor Momsen & Chuck Billy/Bobby Blitz Ellsworth

Taylor Momsen joins Eddie Trunk to discuss The Pretty Reckless' first album in five years, 'Dear God'. She shares stories from touring with AC/DC and The Rolling Stones, revealing how she's formed close friendships with her rock idols. Taylor opens up about the personal struggles that inspired her new music, particularly the track 'When I Wake Up', which explores themes of excess and recovery. She also talks about finding balance through surprising hobbies like crocheting and boxing, her emotional performance at the Rock Hall honoring Soundgarden, and her excitement about headlining shows with new material after years of supporting other acts. Following that, thrash metal veterans Bobby 'Blitz' Ellsworth of Overkill and Chuck Billy of Testament join Eddie to discuss their tour with Destruction. The old friends reminisce about their decades-long careers, share hilarious road stories including Blitz's infamous 'Airborne tablet' incident, and discuss how they've maintained their vocal abilities over the years. They also provide updates on new music, with Testament promoting their latest album Parabellum and Overkill working on new material. The conversation touches on health challenges both frontmen have overcome, their approach to band management, and their excitement about regaining rights to their classic Atlantic Records catalogs after 35 years.
