Welcome to the Say What You Will Podcast. Do these 80's Rock albums still hold up today?

Great White | Shot in the Dark Are blues-rockers from L.A. are finally finding their stride? We’re breaking down the transition from their heavy metal roots to that soulful, gritty sound that’s starting to define them.

Fastway | Trick or Treat (Soundtrack) Is Fast Eddie Clarke is back, providing the sonic backbone for the ultimate heavy metal horror flick? It’s raw, it’s crunchy, and it’s unapologetically loud.

Bon Jovi | Slippery When Wet Have the Jersey boys officially arrived? This album is currently detonating across the airwaves, shifting the landscape of rock from the club to the stadium.

Is it a "Classic" or just "Classic Rock"? This month, we’re hopping in the IROC and heading back exactly 40 years to January 1986.

The synths were creeping in and the legends were at a crossroads. We’re deep-diving into three major releases that defined the era:

• Ozzy Osbourne – The Ultimate Sin: Does Shot in the Dark still hit as hard without Daisley?

• Black Sabbath – Seventh Star: Was it a Sabbath album or a Tony Iommi solo project, or something else entirely?

• Quiet Riot – QR III: Can the kings of the Sunset Strip keep the momentum going?

We’re asking the tough question: Do these records still hold their weight in the modern era, or are they better left on the shelf? Join us as we settle the debate on whether these 1986 staples actually hold up today.

Gather ‘round the Yule log, grab a stiff eggnog (you’ll need it), and join us for our final broadcast of the year! We’re unwrapping the sonic gift that was 1985—though, much like that itchy sweater from your aunt, some of these albums should have come with a gift receipt.

In this holiday special, we dive deep into the year of big hair, bigger synths, and some truly questionable career choices.

• The "Naughty or Nice" List (Top 5 Albums): We reveal our top picks from 1985. Since we both ended up with almost the exact same list, we had a sobering realization: either we’re soulmates, or 1985 was a barren wasteland of "meh" that made us cling to the few good records like a life raft.

• The 1985 Bracket Challenge: We put the heavy hitters head-to-head in a single-elimination tournament. It’s like March Madness, but with more spandex and higher vocal registers.

• The 1985 Ultimate Band Draft: Forget the 12 Days of Christmas; we’re talking about the Ultimate Free Agency Draft. We built the greatest supergroups 1985 could possibly assemble. Who’s the frontman? Who’s on the skins? Who gets coal in their stocking?

• Rock Jeopardy: We test our festive wits in a round of 1985 trivia. Spoiler alert: our brains are about as fried as a Christmas ham.
