Hello, friend. Thank you as always for listening to The Tully Show Apologies in advance for anyone

who is sick and tired of listening to me, talk to myself and other people about hair

listening to this knows all too well is near and dear to my heart entitled Nothing But A Good

Time, The Uncensored History of the 80s Heart Rock Explosion. Hello and welcome from your

respective homes, Tom Bozure and Richard Beanstock. Thanks for having us.

It's so weird off the bat. I feel like anytime I talk to anybody about, well, I'm going

to address the elephant in the room right off the bat, about hair metal. I don't know if I'm
