#327: Andy Williams (Every Time I Die, All Elite Wrestling)

Every Time I Die guitarist and All Elite Wrestling newcomer Andy
Williams is our guest this week. We discuss all things Every Time I
Die, wrestling and the intersection between those two worlds,
including Andy's road from metal icon to wrestling star, the
anxiety of recording the new ETID album and having to leave to get
in the ring, his fandom of the WCW as a kid and more. We also talk
about other topics related to his work in both music and wrestling:
the best hair metal ballads of all time and how becoming a
professional wrestler has allowed him to appreciate garbage music
more, his memory of the Mass Transit incident, how the backstage
experience at wrestling has changed over the years, if the tag team
breakup storyline is inevitable for The Butcher, The Blade, and The
Bunny, and an update on the progress of the new Every Time I Die
record. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn tackle listener emails
regarding our argument about the term “relevance” in music (an
outgrowth of last week's conversation about System a Down), our
fear of discussing politics because we really don’t know anything
besides headlines, and our stories of attending live wrestling
events as kids. Songs: Every Time I Die - “Map Change," Orthodox -
