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":"The Hershey Show Was Fire… Episode 87: A Long Report From the Slayer Mini-Fest","slug":"the-hershey-show-was-fire-episode-87-a-long-report-from-the-slayer-mini-fest","published_at":"2025-09-29T05:59:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518/the-hershey-show-was-fire-episode-87-a-long-report-from-the-slayer-mini-fest","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/The-Hershey-Show-Was-Fire-Episode-87-A-Long-Report-From-the-Slayer-Mini-Fest-e38qti7","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/de2bebf0/podcast/play/108934151/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-8-28%2Fd8f8033a-8a80-add9-ceaf-0dbce315210d.mp3","summary":"Episode #87 of 55. Today's topic is a show report from Slayer's mini-festival in Hershey, PA 20 September 2025. It was their final show of the year, lucky #6. The full day of kick-@ss featured sets by Exodus, the Cavalera Conspiracy, Power Trip, Suicidal Tendencies, Knocked Loose, and F.N. Slayer. And I tell ya all about it. Get ready for the sights, the sounds, the scene, the smells, and all the hot sensations. This is a long episode, nearly 60 minutes. If you just want to hear the Slayer part, jump to the 29-minute mark. This week, Ferris is not reading from his newly, extensively overhauled and expanded Slayer book, \"Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography... or, How F*kin' Slayer Kicked F*kin' @ss,\" which is available in three different lengths / sizes, plus a mostly-color ebook. In most of the other episodes, that's what he does. Mostly. This is the final episode of Talkin’ Slayer, Season 2. We’ll return with season Four in early 2026. And when we do, we might not be on Spotify, because of Spotify’s various and sundry f*kery and assorted acts of f@keration. So keep your antenna up. You can keep updated for free at Patreon: Patreon.com/SlayerBook Until season 4, Patreon supporters can hear season 3, weekly, for less than $1 an episode. Until now, free listeners got every other episode. For season 3, free listeners get none.
