On this episode, I talk with Joe Altier, the man behind the Big Show's entrance themes over the years. We talk all about how he got involved with Jim Johnston and Big Show's theme Crank It Up, how Brand New Sin was tapped to write their rendition of the theme, and how music has played such an integral role in Joe's life. We also talk about how Joe was tapped again by AEW composer Mikey Rukus for Paul Wight's theme. We also talk about how his decisions to take even better care of his body led him to an even more fruitful and successful career in music. Enjoy!
