Nick D – Jim Ryan, Music Talk, and Slap Slapply Is Back!

Music journalist Jim Ryan from Forbes.com returns to talk tunes, tours, and rock history with Nick. They recap highlights from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, dig into a new book about Pearl Jam, and catch up on the latest music news. Jim also reviews a few standout live shows, including Howl Owl Howl, John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band at the Arcada Theatre, and Bryan Adams & Pat Benatar rocking the Allstate Arena. Then, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick for another wild round of ‘80s & ‘90s Trivia Madness, hosted by everyone’s favorite British bon vivant Slap Slapply, who brings chaos, charm, and a few new ridiculous questions from across time and space.
