Summary

This week, the Bayers are joined by drummer Jay Weinberg, who you have seen behind the kit of some of your favorite bands ranging from Slipknot to Suicidal Tendencies! Jay talks about being the son of Max Weinberg of The E Street Band and performing "Born To Run" with Bruce Springsteen at Giants stadium while Jonah and Vanessa's dad was trying to get them to take over his shrinkwraping company. (Max may have had a slighter cooler gig.) We also discuss Jonah's punk rock hall of fame status, the concept of creating your own fun (and t-shirts) as a young person and Vanessa finds an opportunity to do her stellar impression of the Boss! We also get into our topic, being scared of art, and discuss how the things that scared Jay the most as a child, ended up being his biggest influences from Metallica's "Enter Sandman" to horror movies like "The Ring." Finally, we get into a powerful round of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA where we discuss the upcoming "Cliffhanger" reboot, the return of Coca-Cola Orange Cream and the confectionary variant known as Milky Way crispy rolls. You can catch Jay all summer opening for Metallica with Suicidal Tendencies and for more information on him visit jayweinbergofficial.com.
