About

After touring the world with Avenged Sevenfold for 20 years, Johnny Christ sits down to have conversations with some old friends, some new friends, and people of all different walks of life to hear the stories that shaped their lives and careers. The truth is, we never really know where these conversations are going to go. Sometimes we play a game for some less than thrilling penalties, get lost in the middle of LA, and even just kick back to celebrate a holiday or two. Sometimes we drink, other times we don’t drink at all. From cocktails to health shakes, the drink is just a nice icebreaker to loosen up our guests for the wild ride they’re about to embark upon. Whatever it is you're looking for, we're sure to have it on the menu here at Drinks With Johnny. So stay tuned, stay thirsty, and stay FILTHY AF!

Johnny’s face is bleeding, so that can only mean one thing - we’ve reluctantly reached the end to Season 3 of Drinks With Johnny. To help put a bow on this windy road that was 2021, we’re joined by country superstar Brantley Gilbert! Johnny and Brantley get into the differences and similarities between the rock and country music landscapes. Brantley compares his time on Willie Nelson's Country Throwdown Tour to that of Johnny’s experience on the Van’s Warped Tour. We get into Brantley’s personal life and find out what makes him tick. Brantley shares the story of how he met his wife. We discover what Brantley has been up to during the pandemic to stay sane, and experience a bit of “mancave-envy” as we discuss Brantley’s 7000+ square foot monster mancave.

Josh Balz

Things get a little spooky this week as we’re joined by musician/entrepreneur/spooky guy Josh Balz! Right off the bat we get into Josh’s extensive taxidermy collection, and Johnny’s desire to become a piece of taxidermy one day. Josh even goes as far as to place an exact value on what a stuffed Johnny might cost! We get into the music industry and chat about Josh’s time performing with Motionless in White. Josh reveals what led him to leave the band, and why the touring life wasn’t a good fit for him. Josh also has a very special message for Spotify & Apple Music (hint: F_ _ _ Y _ _ ) Johnny shares some insight behind the inspiration to the next Avenged Sevenfold album, and gives a behind the scenes story about the Nightmare tour. Josh shows of his church in eastern Pennsylvania, and presents his idea for a Tim Burton-esque theme park.

Andy Black of Black Veil Brides

After a decade since touring together, I catch up with an old friend in Andy Black of Black Veil Brides. We get into the band’s latest studio release, The Phantom Tomorrow, and talk about the process of creating this album over the last year. Andy even shares some insight & spoilers into BVB’s followup to this record. We take it back to our tour together in 2011, and catch up on how our lives have changed since then. Andy shares stories of being spit at on stage, and almost inciting a riot by inviting the crowd to throw things at the band (much to the dismay of Zakk Wylde & Black Label Society). Andy also gives some insight to his infamous Golden Gods speech in 2013. Andy opens up about growing up as an outcast in Ohio, and the challenges of looking different from the other people in his school. We talk BVB’s current tour with In This Moment, and the possibility of hearing Meet Me in the Fire performed with Maria Brink.

We break down the horror movies that inspired each song on the record, and touch on the process of creating the visually stunning music videos that accompany the album. Spencer shares some easter eggs that link the band to Pet Sematary, and what it was like to work with horror icon Bill Moseley. It wouldn’t be a true Halloween episode if we didn’t get into our favorite horror movies. We play “This or That” to find out who the baddest slasher is to hail the silver screen.

After a wild time with Sammy Hagar in Vegas, we cool things down by getting the Drinks With Johnny crew together for a mid-season meetup to shoot the shit and preview what's left to come in Season 3. We chat about threesomes, glory holes, and the last time Johnny was in a mosh pit. There's a *super brief* preview of the now-infamous Stix golf outing episode that's coming later in the season (or next week, who knows!) and we also get a look at the special rooftop performance by Sammy Hagar & The Circle in Las Vegas.

Fresh off the release of their latest studio album Dearly Beloved, Daughtry frontman Chris Daughtry joins the show. Fifteen years after the release of their self-titled debut album, Daughtry is back to reclaim their crown and evolve into the rock band they originally sought to become. Chris opens up about the path that led to this latest record, and how splitting from the band’s label really allowed for full creative freedom to write rock songs. We take a deep dive back into Chris’ path through American Idol, and what it was like to live in an isolated compound for the duration of the show. Chris also shares the one thing he wishes they would have allowed him to do on the show. We fast forward to 2019 and chat about Chris’ stellar performance as the “Rottweiler” on The Masked Singer. Chris reveals the challenges of performing in a mascot costume, and the secrecy of that shrouds the show in general. We get back to Dearly Beloved and discuss the creative process going into the project. I reveal which song from the record would make the perfect backtrack for a sports montage video package (take note NFL and UFC), plus we talk about Chris’ fascination with comic books and how it’s come to light in the band’s latest music video.

We get into Jose’s love of Pantera and he shares a great story about his experience at Vinny Paul’s funeral service.

We reflect back on Mikkey’s first time meeting Lemmy, and how he eventually made his way from King Diamond to Dokken before finally landing in Motörhead.

We sample Chris’ Impale’d Ale & Root Beer’d as he opens up about sobriety and how he uses his beer sales to help those battling addiction. Chris also shares a story about why he almost never made it home from Vinnie Paul’s house one sunny day. We find out how close Chris was to actually giving up on his musical career before joining Death Punch, and why it sometimes pays off big to slide into someone’s DMs. Chris talks about his experience of hand delivering bass guitars to fans, and why it’s been a longer than expected process. We get introspective & retrospective on our lives, and why it’s important to appreciate the journey over the destination. We give Blabbermouth some good one liners to use as headlines, talk about the newfound synchrony in the 5FDP camp, why Kiss Alive II is so special to Chris, and so much more!

Goliath tour, we discuss the evolution of their musical style since the release of Goliath in 2013. Heidi shares her nerves of finally getting back into the world to tour, and how she’s taking a different approach musically to performing the tracks from their debut album. Johnny and Heidi get into their love of being a part of the Raider Nation, and predict how this season will go for the team. We take a look at Heidi’s childhood and how it has influenced her life today. Heidi opens up about growing up Mormon, having a huge family with over 100 cousins, and how her parent’s musical & athletic genes were passed down a generation. We bring it back to music and chat about the possibility of a live Butcher Babies album. We get into music videos and find out why the production process is more of a ‘family affair’ for Heidi and the band. We talk about Heidi’s venture into acting (and find out she was in The Sandlot - THE FREAKING SANDLOT), plus she touches on her ‘beef’ with another female rocker.

Kelly shares his experience meeting Avenged Sevenfold for the first time in his hometown of Youngstown, Ohio and how the band plays a part in his self proclaimed “champ stamp” tattoo on his back. We talk about Kelly’s introduction to boxing at a young age, and why he doesn’t think it would be a good career choice for his son. Kelly shares his thoughts on celebrity boxing bouts, and why it’s important you should watch them with the mindset that it’s an exhibition matchup. The Ghost also pulls back the curtain behind the boxing industry revealing that some champions don’t get paid as much as guys who can ‘put asses in seats.’ We break down friend-of-the-show Vergil Ortiz’s upcoming fight, and discuss why Kelly thinks Vergil is a man on a mission. Kelly explains the differences between the many governing bodies in boxing, and exposes the fees associated with being a World Champion. We talk Tyson/Holyfield III, Fury/Wilder III, and if there was any weight to the statements that Kelly made on Joe Rogan’s podcast about getting the itch to fight again!

EC3

This week we’re graced by the presence of a true legend in the making as professional wrestler EC3 and his right hand man JC join the show to talk about their latest project Free The Narrative. Being a podcast run by wrestling fans (if you haven’t already figured that out by now) it was truly refreshing to watch the cinematic wrestling experience they put together, and pick their brains about the behind-the-scenes process. We take a unique look at the wrestling industry together and discuss why today’s product is more driven by the advertisers over the fans. EC3 talks about how certain wrestlers are never given the chance to get over, why he became miserable during his WWE run, and how The Narrative has become a third act of sorts for his career. JC gives us a unique peek behind the curtain of the production process behind The Narrative. We learn about his history with Mushroomhead, and how the band played a part in creating the score for the project. We also learn about what MONSTROUS names might be featured in the next iteration of The Narrative. Of course it wouldn’t be a true episode of Drinks With Johnny if we didn’t touch on drinking, drugs, and everything in between, so get ready because EC3 & JC came to party!

Madusa

This week I'm honored to be joined by a true PAVER in WWE Hall of Fame wrestler & Monster Jam star, Madusa! We start this bad boy out with a cocktail I dubbed Madusa on the Rocks, but Madusa comes up with even a better name. Then we sit down and get into Madusa's near 20-year tenure with Monster Jam. We find out just how she was able to carve out a niche for herself in the monster truck world, the struggles of having absolutely ZERO training before starting, and the fun pranks that she pulled on the guys before their races. I pull out a nice surprise for Madusa myself, as we introduce a new drinking game to the mix - Cocktail Checkers. Things get heated as Madusa's true competitive nature shines through during the game. We continue the chat by getting into the beginnings of Madusa's wrestling career; from the first training session, to her debut in Japan, sketchy cage fighting in Thailand, and her eventual rise to the WWF as Alundra Blayze. Madusa reflects back on the struggles that women faced in the sports entertainment industry, and how she was able to help pave the way for where women's wrestling is today. She lets the TRUTH out about her infamous phone call with friend-of-the-show Eric Bischoff (sorry, Eric!) Truth be told, there's so much to unpack in this chat that this little write up won't even do it justice. Just know - I think I made a new best friend, and hope you enjoy the UNCUT chat with Madusa!

Our favorite hoodlum Darby Allin returns to the show for an in-depth interview about his life in & outside of the wrestling ring. Of course we'd be remiss not to talk about the TNT Champion's spectacular cinematic showcase with legend Sting. Darby reveals his first interactions with the Stinger, and how his background as a (failed) film student helped to influence the promos we see on AEW programming. Darby explains what led to his decision to ultimately drop out of film school. Here's a spoiler: it involves an inflatable boobie and a bathroom stall. Yup, that's a real thing. We take an even deeper dive into the absurd as Darby recalls his ridiculous antics as a dollar store employee. Broken feet, TV commercials, and chocolate pudding are just a taste of the chaos... It wouldn't be a true Darby Allin interview without someone trying to slide across the floor unnoticed mid-chat. We also get into Darby's favorite punk rock groups, his thoughts on Gigi Dolin, why you'll never see him wrestling in a high school gymnasium, and what it was like to work with the late great Brodie Lee.

Welcome to Drinks With Johnny

After touring the world with Avenged Sevenfold for 20 years, Johnny Christ sits down to have conversations with some old friends, some new friends, and people of all different walks of life to hear the stories that shaped their lives and careers. The truth is, we never really know where these conversations are going to go. Sometimes we play a game for some less than thrilling penalties, get lost in the middle of LA, and even just kick back to celebrate a holiday or two. More often than not, we drink. Sometimes we drink a lot. Sometimes Johnny even shows YOU how to drink. Whatever it is you're looking for, we're sure to have it on the menu here at Drinks With Johnny. So stay tuned, stay thirsty, and stay FILTHY AF! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
