Ferris","episode_count":77,"summary":"Talkin' Slayer tells the story of Slayer, the thrashiest of the Big Four thrash metal bands. After some introduction episodes, this weekly show recaps the history of the Los Angeles heavy metal institution, in chronological order: how the band happened, when things fell apart, how they put them back together, and what it all meant—no, MEANS. After Episode 9, Patreon supporters receive every weekly episode. Talkin' Slayer is written, deeply researched, lightly edited, and mostly rehearsed, with some production value. Episodes start after :60-:90 of intro; no need to skip the first 20 minutes.","last_synced_at":"2026-08-02T06:18:51.956881+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518"},"episode":{"title":"Season 4, Episode 2: Intro + Maximum Jeffage","slug":"season-4-episode-2-intro-maximum-jeffage","published_at":"2026-05-09T06:59:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518/season-4-episode-2-intro-maximum-jeffage","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/slayerbook/episodes/Season-4--Episode-2-Intro--Maximum-Jeffage-e3j2gb8","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/de2bebf0/podcast/play/119668520/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-4-9%2Fb31fabce-a0f2-6a40-8515-17348375e1ff.mp3","summary":"AND WE ARE BACK, AND SERIOUSLY LISTENING TO MAIDEN AGAIN, FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE 80s. THE RITUAL HAS BEGUN. Today's topic is Jeff Hanneman. How did Jeff make the difference in Slayer's art & career? Listen up and find out. For the next year or so, every week, you get a chapter or two of D.X. Ferris' Slaytanic history book... "Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography... Or, How F*Kin' Slayer Kicked Fkkin' @Ss," REBORN: The Updated, Revised& Massively Expanded 4th Edition ...the complete audio version, broadcast for the first time. You've never heard it like this before... unless you have the audiobook, which is available CHEAP at ⁠SlayerBook.Bandcamp.com⁠ . The run time is 1.4 DAYS. That's a lot. Starting this week, Season IV: Return of the New & Improved is ramping up into the chronological history of Slayer, as seen / heard in the book. The previous edition of the book ran around 350 pages. The new REBORN Edition runs 639. We added a lot. And you can hear it all here, one week at a time, piece by piece. Mostly, in season 4, what you will get every week or so is a chapter from the book... plus some cool bonus stuff, like original interviews with people you WILL want to hear from. The book was updated after the reunion, massively expanded, thoroughly overhauled, and rewritten so it's easier to read — both in format and writing style. Check it out at... ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ SlayerBooks.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and / or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Ajna Offensive⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ F[ARG]IN' SLAYER. JEFF RIP. Thank you for listening.","meta_description":"AND WE ARE BACK, AND SERIOUSLY LISTENING TO MAIDEN AGAIN, FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE 80s. THE RITUAL HAS BEGUN. Today's topic is Jeff Hanneman.
