Episode 2.3 - "The Sound Of Scars" Film Review
21 APR 2021 · Brooklyn, NY's LEGENDARY Life of Agony has spent their pandemic downtime putting the finishing touches on their documentary feature film, "The Sound Of Scars". The Director's screening went live on Friday 4/16, and Raevyn bought a ticket. We talk about the film, and LOA's deep impact on the metal community over the last 30-ish years, and of course our SLM Playlist picks are from the iconic "River Runs Red" album.
In addition, we bring back the Patron Saint of Underdogs with Melissa Soqui, a member of Perpetual Movement Fitness's Barbell Club, who recently competed in her first weightlifting comp with zero expectations...and won!

Episode 2.1 - "Huffing and Puffing"
17 MAR 2021 · This episode we're talking about the return of the Crossfit Open, and Raevyn's return to practicing what she preaches.
In addition, we have another silly story involving our good friends Ron and Liz, along with the Three Little Pigs.

Episode 11 - Home Gyms and Cellar Darling
4 AUG 2020 · Strength Love Metal is back after a long (and emotional) hiatus. We have a sum up of the craziness that threatened to end Crossfit, how my girlfriend and I are handling fitness in the time of Covid, an unexpected surprise from one of my favorite progressive metal bands, and staying grounded and connected through music and fitness when it seems like the world around us is falling apart. I hope you guys missed me as much as I missed you.

Episode 10 - "My Privates Are Outside!"
15 MAY 2020 · Getting a little stir-crazy, so two of my best friends took the girlfriend and I to their 40 acre property in the high desert of Northeastern AZ for some camping, relaxation, critter chasing, fire-cooking, hiking, traipsing, and peeing in the bushes hundreds of miles away from civilization...and it was AWESOME!
Discovered while I was away that some major developments took place in the realm of the Crossfit Games that directly relates to the Covid-19 pandemic (no, they're not cancelling, but still huge). Also checking in on local shelter in place orders that affect gyms in AZ.
Finally, our Patron Saint of Underdogs is KREWE OF HOPE, a generous, compassionate collective of humans that are working here in Phoenix to accomplish two things during the pandemic; keeping small mom-and-pop restaurants in business, and feeding displaced seniors. Much love and respect to the Krewe!

Episode 9 - LIVE FROM QUARANTINE!
12 APR 2020 · In a SLM podcast first, I decided to go live on Instagram. A few people popped in with questions and well wishes, My girl Kate Hollenbeck, owner of Cavegirl Coffee Co. provided some of her delicious coffee and we commiserated a little about all the badass metal shows that have been cancelled. We also feature a new Patron Saint of Underdogs, Gretchen Lehman, aka "Emma Grenade"; my former teammate and derby wife, and one of countless medical professionals on the frontlines of the Covid-19 crisis.
No editing, no filters...no script. Let's see how this goes.

Episode 8 - Cavegirl, Corona, and Swampin'...Oh my!
16 MAR 2020 · The Corona Virus (Covid-19) is shutting down our way of life as events (METAL SHOWS), schools, and businesses (INCLUDING GYMS) close in an effort to contain and minimize the spread of infection. In this episode we talk a bit about the pandemonium with the pandemic, and how we can all get through it if we work together as a community and support those whose livelihood is in jeopardy.
In addition, I give my review of Cavegirl Coffee, gush over Hannah Linzay's record breaking bag over bar at The Arnold (swamped it!), and share my new favorite torture method, er, core exercise...the body saw!

Ep. 7 - Put On Some Death Metal And Handle It!
13 FEB 2020 · If you are a metal fan who is also an avid gym goer/ fitness buff, you may have noticed an abundance of poppy or hip-hop themed tee companies, but NO METAL. I started my own line of merch for that very reason. I've found that there is a number of entrepreneurs who had the same idea, and have created small businesses that cater to the headbangers in the fitness space (or gym rats in the metal space). This episode highlights several brands that have an undeniable metalhead appeal, and don't skimp on delivering quality.
In addition, new SLM Community WOD date announced, and an update on the Caffeine & Kilos Add A Mile Challenge.
Mosh pit = cardio. Just sayin'.
