Ep 846 : Paul Gilbert : Guitarist / Songwriter Mr Big, Racer XMar 2, 2026 · 48 minToday on Let There Be Talk I've got a true guitar God in the house — one of the most technically insane, melodic, and joyful players to ever plug into a Marshall… the one and only Paul Gilbert.
You first felt the shred attack with Racer X, where the speed was blistering and the musicianship was on another planet. Then came the arena-sized hooks and monster riffs with Mr. Big — yes, the band that gave the world "To Be With You," but also some of the fiercest guitar playing of the late '80s and '90s.
Now Paul is back with a brand-new solo record, WROC — and as always, he's pushing himself, chasing tone, melody, and that endless curiosity that's kept him evolving for decades.
We dive deep into:
• The making of WROC
• His practice philosophy and how he stays inspired
• Life in Mr. Big and Racer X
Paul's not just a shred legend — he's one of the most positive, dedicated lifers in rock 'n' roll.
Turn it up. This is Let There Be Talk.
Thank You

Ep 834 : AC/DC Deep Tracks, 16 years of Stand Up and My love of ArchitectureDec 8, 2025 · 41 minToday on Let There Be Talk — Episode 834 — I'm taking a trip through some of my favorite AC/DC deep tracks, the songs that don't always get the spotlight but absolutely deserve it.
I'm also marking a big personal milestone: 16 years of doing stand-up comedy. It's been an incredible ride, full of growth, gratitude, and a whole lot of stories.
And finally, I'm diving into one of my favorite passions — architecture. The buildings, the lines, the design choices that shape the world around us and inspire me every day.
Let's get into it.
Thanks for the support my friends.

Ep 833 : Sade the Queen of Soul, Black Sabbath's unknown singer and Car Door Dings.Dec 1, 2025 · 1 hr 6 minEp 833 Let There Be Talk – Today's Episode On today's ride, I'm diving into three wildly different but equally killer topics:
• SADE — the mystery, the magic, and the timeless cool A look at why Sade remains one of the most iconic and elusive musicians on the planet.
• BLACK SABBATH'S "UNKNOWN" SINGER We have Ozzy, Dio, Ian Gillan and even Tony Martin but what about Dave Walker.
We dig into the deep-cut history of Sabbath's early vocal experiments and the singer most fans have never heard about.
• DOOR DINGS ON CARS A rant for the ages. Why can't people park like civilized humans? Why must every beautiful car suffer? Let's talk parking-lot etiquette and the psychology of the door-ding offender.
Thank You my friends

Ep 831 - Seeing the Queens Of The Stone Age Catacombs Tour, Walter Payton's Porsche for Sale and the curse of Fake NewsNov 17, 2025 · 1 hrEP 831 – Let There Be Talk
Today on Let There Be Talk, I talk about catching the Queens of the Stone Age Catacombs Tour—1 of the best shows I have even seen hands down,
I also get into something pretty interesting that popped up this week: Walter Payton's Porsche is for sale on Bring A Trailer. It's a rare piece of sports and automotive history that I cant wait to see what it ends up selling for.
And finally, I touch on the ongoing challenge of fake news—how it spreads, how easy it is to get pulled into it, and why it feels harder than ever to sort out what's real.
That's all coming up today on EP 831.
Thanks for tuning in.
