Summary

Hello, Hi, Welcome, Hello, Guten Tag, Hi, Hello! Tom Kwei is back joining Clint to talk about the return of his encyclopedic all Metallica podcast, Alphabetallica. Tom has been a dear friend of MUYP going back all the way to the beginning and all these years later he and Clint are still mates, despite the fact that they couldn't possibly agree on the (de)demerits of Reload and St. Anger. In this episode they talk about: - Tom’s history with MUYP - Hanging with Clint at Royal Albert Hall - how podcasting affects fandom - the e-mail portal - critiques of 72 seasons - the concept of 72 Seasons - the tuning room - rain delays at stadium concerts - Taylor Swift - Alphabetallica returns! - can music grow on you? - streaming vs. physical media - is 72 Seasons like Reload? - M72 tour - Kirk’s guitar playing - Hetfield as one of the Greats - the future of Metallica
