A daily dose of ranting, a weekly dose of RANDOM. A Podcast for everyone. Daily topics range from moldy food to mental health and hangover history.....These are ”Road Rants”.

Revisiting our podcast with a previous guest "Jimmy Rinehart Music". In this episode, we talk about his health issues during youth and the mental health effects that became attached. We discuss bullying, mental strength, tenacity and persistence in this episode. What a beautiful human being he is. And you get to hear the voice behind the intro music for ALL of the GTKY episodes (uh....he wrote the guitar intro folks). Check this candid but deep conversation that has similarities to our very own mini hero #RENNYTOK. For more check out Jimmy on Tik Tok. He has been going live with other musicians alot lately and putting on a wonderful show.

Body Count Fools!
Yup, that is correct. We interviewed a bada$$ MF from California! Ernie C is the guitarist and founder of the LA band Body Count. He curated and developed the band with his best friend Ice T who still fronts the band to this day. We chat about music, life and about recovery in this episode. What an amazing human being this man is. At 66 years old-he still plays like he is in his 30's. Oh yeah, did I mention they have been nominated for 2 Grammys? Oh, did I forget to mention they won a Grammy in 2021 for best metal performance. Check out the band and their merchandise at www.bodycountband.com and check out their tour dates coming in 2026. Hope to see you at Sonic Temple where I will meet with Ernie face to face!!!!
