Thomas Eriksen — the man behind Norway's Mork, one of black metal's most authentic and relentlessly evolving solo projects — pulls into the Krazy Train

Eriksen breaks down "Ødelagt" — Norwegian for "broken" — a track inspired by brutalist architecture, vast emptiness, and a life built on a false facade, and previews Monolitt, Mork's eighth studio album dropping June 19th on Peaceville Records — a signing that came with the backing of Darkthrone members and the kind of underground credibility that can't be bought. He walks through Mork's evolution across eight albums, the origin of the name and logo, and what it actually looks like to build a black metal career from Norway to the stages of Psycho Las Vegas, California Death Fest, and Baltimore — funded in part by Norwegian government artist grants that most American musicians don't even know exist.

Armored Saint guitarist Jeff Duncan pulls into the Krazy Train and Jasmin St. Claire is ready — because when one of heavy metal's most enduring bands drops a ninth studio album, you don't phone in the conversation. Emotion Factory Reset is out and Duncan breaks it all down — the writing process, the concept behind the new videos "Close To The Bone" and "Hit A Moonshot" including the real-life fighters who inspired it, and what it means for a band that has been together this long to still be making music that hits this hard. He gets into Armored Saint's legendary relationship with Metal Blade Records and founder Brian Slagel, why a brotherhood built in the early 80s Los Angeles metal scene is still standing when almost everything else from that era has fallen apart, and what playing the Rainbow Bar & Grill's 54th anniversary show felt like for a man who grew up on Black Sabbath, Kiss, Van Halen, and Judas Priest.

The Platinum Princess is on the Krazy Train. Jasmin St. Claire sits down with adult entertainment Golden Era icon SEKA — the woman who dated Sam Kinison, appeared on Saturday Night Live, ended up at Lorne Michaels' after-party, and walked away from one of the most recognizable careers in adult film history entirely on her own terms. SEKA breaks down entering the industry in the 1970s with no testing and no rulebook, working regularly with John Holmes, starring in Dracula Sucks, and watching the AVN Awards transform from an industry secret into a full-blown institution. She gets into life after the industry, the stigma she faced on talk shows, rockstar encounters, her 2005 return scene, OnlyFans, and exactly what she thinks about where the modern adult entertainment world has gone. She's got a book. She's got a documentary. And she's never told it quite like this.

SEKA on the Golden Era & Everything That Came After

Marc Mero — WCW's Johnny B. Badd, former WWF star, Golden Gloves boxer, and one of the most unexpectedly real conversations you're going to hear on this podcast — pulls into the Krazy Train and holds absolutely nothing back. Jasmin St. Claire and Mero swap locker room rib stories involving the Iron Sheik and Owen Hart before the whole thing takes a sharp left turn into the kind of territory most wrestlers never talk about on camera. Mero breaks down how Boris Malenko trained him, how Dusty Rhodes discovered him, and how the glitter and flashbulbs of the Johnny B. Badd era were covering up a decade-long cocaine addiction that nearly killed him — multiple overdoses included. This isn't a highlight reel. This is the wreckage and the rebuild, told by the man who lived it.

Because the man who bottomed out in front of a mirror at Gold's Gym is now the man filling school auditoriums across the country with a youth speaking program that went viral thanks to Diamond Dallas Page's crew and turned into one of the most-booked anti-drug, mental health programs in America. They get into smartphones destroying an entire generation, fentanyl wiping out kids who don't even know what they're taking, WWE's schedule changes under TKO, XWF memories with Mr. Perfect, and why Marc Mero at a convention might be the most real human being in the building. Find him at thinkpoz.org. Come correct. 🎙️🚂
