In this nostalgia-packed third episode of The Audio Files, Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot are joined by special guest Abbey Blue Eyes for a spirited dive into music, memories, and mayhem. The trio kicks things off with throwback tracks from Louis Prima and New Order, spinning stories of 1950s Vegas lounge acts and synth-heavy 1980s dance festivals. Abbey shares her passion for electronic music with a haunting track from Delta Heavy, while the crew reflects on the evolution of music accessibility and the fading art of album discovery.

Things take a rowdy turn with a crash course in mosh pit culture, complete with Slayer war stories, wall-of-death chaos, and comedy relief from Jim Breuer’s legendary metal bit. The episode also features heartfelt dedications to veterans, a spotlight on the late, great Eric Carmen as the inaugural “Based Artist of the Week,” and listener-submitted tracks including a fiery live performance from Stevie Ray Vaughan.

With laughs, live memories, and lots of musical love, this episode blends pop culture deep dives, metal mayhem, and red-pilled reflections into a truly unique listening experience.
