A podcast about the mid-life & times of an aging metalhead & his stupid love of live (heavy) music. I"m too old, it"s too loud & I don"t care.Your host Tor Hansen tells stories from Yesterday& Today (Y&T pun intended). Every episode brings an album of the week and a review of the concerts he"s been to. It"s almost always Metal, or Hardcore, or Metalcore, or Metallic Hardcore , you get the idea. Plus if you aren"t about the metal but like the stories we have a special segment for

kids & family parenting

Send us a text Hello, It seems to be a summer of lists here at the Pisdcast. This one is a bit different in execution from the last one.

If you want to listen to the playlist in it's unf...
