Thrash metal legend Gary Holt joinsfor an epic deep dive into the wild history of Exodus, his decade with Slayer, and the stories behind his brutally honest new memoir A Fabulous Disaster: From the Garage to Madison Square Garden. Gary shares what it was like to rehearse for the recent Slayer reunion shows, the unfiltered truth about Exodus’ near-misses with fame, and why Bonded by Blood came out late but still changed metal forever. He opens up about his darkest days, his battle with meth addiction, the long road back to sobriety, and riff supremacy. You’ll also hear about the myth and madness of Paul Baloff, his thoughts on bassist Cliff Burton, the awesomeness of The Big Four shows, Gary’s time as a roofer during Exodus' hiatus, his “killer” merch hustle, and how watching 90 Day Fiancé keeps him sane on tour.
