Welcome to Episode 313 of Life In The Stocks. My guest this week is Joe Escalante from The Vandals. I had the pleasure of Joe's company and friendship on the Flogging Molly Cruise last year and it was wonderful to welcome him onto the podcast. We talk about discovering punk rock, switching Fat Mike onto punk rock, and building a life and career out of punk rock. We also discuss how the classic Vandals line-up of Joe Escalante, Dave Quackenbush, Warren Fitzgerald and Josh Freese came about, and the relationship between those four guys over the years. Joe also works in TV & Film and he now manages Sublime, so we get into some of that stuff as well, and we even touch a little on faith and spirituality at the end. I hope you all enjoy this one as much as me.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Mighty Joe Elliott from the multi-platinum-selling Def Leppard joins me for Episode 320 of Life In The Stocks. This actually marks Joe's third appearance on the podcast, but there's never any shortage of fun stuff to talk about. Joe's one of the chattiest guys around. Here, we discuss everything from stadiums tours with Motley Crue and the shenanigans that went down on the road to the working class roots of Def Leppard and what's held the band together over all these years. We're also talk about the band's breakthrough album Pyromania, the 40th anniversary edition to which is out now.

Today is my birthday, and what better way to celebrate than by welcoming one of my all-time favourite rock stars and human beings onto the show.
