Elvis. I am not going to lie. I was up late last night watching playoff baseball and it has been a slog today, but I am powering through these ad reads right now.

Get yours in store and online at www.5.or on Amazon today. I was recently researching a subject for one of our podcast episodes whose home was broken into. And the algorithm started to then send me all these horrifying clips of home break ins. And I got pulled into the wormhole and naturally started questioning my own home security system at the time. And what I found out was that my system wasn't very preventative. And that's because most home security systems aren't very preventative. They're actually designed to only react and take action once someone has already broken in. And that ain't good. Simplisafe, on the other hand, my new security system stops crime before it even starts by confronting potential threats the moment they appear. These break in videos online are horrifying and they're happening in neighborhoods all over. You need your home security to be dependable. And, and my question is, can a home security system really call itself security if it only responds once the intruder is already in your home? Simplisafe is the way to stop someone from actually entering your home. Their AI powered cameras detect threats while they're outside before they intrude. And they alert real security agents who take action While the intruder, again, is outside, not in your house. I'm now using Simplisafe and I'm telling you that you guys should too. It's super easy to set up. They sent me all the components in one box. I was able to hook it up by myself. Made my wife happy. And now my home is protected and I've got rapid response. I've got a security system I can depend on and a great, easy, intuitive app that helps me monitor my home no matter where I'm at. Right now, my listeners can save 50% on a SimpliSafe home security system at simplisafe.com Disgracepod that's simplisafe.com DisgracePod there's no safe like Simplisafe. Hey, discos, need a little more Disgrace Land in your life? Just a touch to get you through. Yeah, me too. This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome to Disgraceland. The afterparty. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode. A little thing we like to call the after party. This is the show after the show. The party. After the party. The bridge to get you from one full episode of Disgraceland to the other. The backyard to dig into the dirt. Our mission, to uncover the truth, to confront the myth, to reclaim the story. On this bonus episode, we are talking about our new episode on Houdini, with the Red Hot Chili Peppers making an appearance. We're rewinding back to our Norwegian Black Metal and Misfits episodes for the Halloween season, previewing next week' brand new episode on Judas Priest. Talking about one of the worst humans ever right now, a crap singer from a crap band. And we get into your voicemails, texts, DMs, and as always, a whole lot of Rosie. This is the podcast for the musically obsessed, the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. Disgraceland is where I tell the stories I didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. All right, discos, let's get into it. All right? This prison, it holds criminals so notorious, they call the prison the Monster Mansion. It's filled to the brim with predators, the worst of the worst. Serial killers, cannibals, rapists. The criminals are too depraved to be held in general population. Yes, for fear of what they'll potentially do to others, but more out of fear of what will be done to them. Now, there's a hierarchy in all prisons. And England's Monster Mansion not only holds the worst of the worst, it also holds the lowest of the low. And this is where Lost Profits ex singer, the convicted pedophile Ian Watkins was murdered last week. On the morning of October 11, as the cell doors were unlocked and the prisoners were allowed to move about, two prisoners ambushed Ian Watkins in his cell. One of them stabbed Watkins in the neck with a shank, reportedly hitting his jugular. Blood went everywhere, spewed violently, quickly covered the cell. The alarms blared and for a minute chaos ensued before guards got control of the situation. The bloodshed was described by a source on the scene as horrific, with blood everywhere, and that the event was, quote, shocking even by prison standards. The 47 year old Ian Watkins was quickly pronounced dead. His two attackers were apprehended. His fans, his groupies. Yes, he still has groupies, even young ones who still correspond with him in prison. His ex bandmates and his victims. We haven't heard from any of them, aside from a fairly narcissistic ex post from Lost Profits guitarist Lee Gaze using this occasion of Ian Watkins's death to lament the downfall of their band from 13 years ago due to of course, Ian Watkins's depraved crimes. In 2013, Watkins pleaded guilty to attempted rape and sexual assault of a child under 13. He also pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual assault involving children, to six counts of taking, making or possessing indecent imagery and one count of possessing an extreme pornographic image involving a sex act on an animal. One of this dude's victims was a two year old boy, a two year old boy, the son of one of his girlfriends, a woman that the singer once texted saying, quote, if you belong to me, so does your baby. Let that sink in. There's been a reason that I haven't covered this story. A lot of you have written me before. I get an email about this every couple months or so and have for years. And I, I hate this shit, I really do. And it's, it's so dark, it's so depraved that, you know, I've done, I've done similar episodes in the past as you know, on some really dark stuff. And you know when you're researching it, you're just in it, in your head, man. It's like it take, it takes a beating. Your soul takes a beating. It's, it's tough for me and I know everybody's different. It's tough for me to have my head in places like this, deeply in places like this for long periods of time and you know, for some it's not. And you know, you know it's funny, I was. I got this buddy who's an ex New York City cop, and I was talking to him a couple weeks ago, and he was just. You know, I asked him, you know, we were at a party and things had kind of lightened up, and we were. We were getting. Then we were getting heavy on some stuff, and I asked him about some of the worst things that he seen when he was a cop in New York. He retired very young, and, you know, I'm not going to repeat what he told me, but the fact that this guy's not traumatized by it is just. It's astonishing to me that some people can compartmentalize these types of experiences, this type of information, and again, everybody deals with it differently. And a lot of you have asked me to cover this horrific story, and I haven't done it. I always planned on doing it, though, and I'm now going to. For sure, now that there's a real ending here, I'm going to get into it. But it's so dark, and especially that that quote gives you a taste of how dark it is. If you belong to me so does your baby Just a special kind of evil. During the investigation into Ian Watkins's crimes, authorities got a hold of his laptop and they figured out that his login password was I Kids. I mean, a senior investigator assigned to Watkins's case said that Ian Watkins was, quote, potentially the most dangerous sex offender he'd ever seen. I mean, I don't know how I'm going to tell this story, but I'm going to. I want to know more about why he was killed. There's no word yet on why Ian Watkins was murdered. Now, many are assuming that it's. It's prison justice. It's back to what I was saying earlier about the hierarchy in prison. You know, convicts cleaning out the lowest of the low from among their ranks. However, in 2023, not that long ago, a couple inmates took Ian Watkins hostage in jail and beat and tortured him for six hours. Now, this had nothing to do, reportedly, about Ian Watkins's crimes, the crimes that led him to jail, the abuse, it was reportedly over a drug debt. Ian Watkins was an addict. He's got a lot of experience in and out of jail with drugs. So I don't know why he was killed. I don't think anyone does right now, as of the recording of this episode. But we're going to find out and we're going to do an episode on this, and we're going to find a way to do it that isn't completely sensationalized and that gets to the evil at the heart of this singer from the band Lost Profits. Details are still emerging from this case. You know, as we get them in, we'll start putting this together, putting the research together on, like I said, Ian Watkins from Lost Profits. Disgraceful Crimes in a full episode soon. This is one of those stories, as I mentioned, many of you have recommended even before Ian's death. And there's of course a lot about this story that is hard to digest. But I don't know, I just, I believe it's important to cover the worst of the worst. And this is one of those reminders this Halloween season that true monsters walk among us. Ian Watkins from Lost Profits is about as disgraceful a musician that I've come across in all of my years doing this. He deserves a special place in whatever the hall of Disgrace is. He's up there with the worst of the worst. Like I said, up there with the spade coolies. Big Lurch, truly a bad, bad man, an absolute monster. And that's, you know, that's part of the whole, this whole season, this whole Halloween thing that we're doing. There's the fun side of it. There's the sort of comic book side of it, the Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees side of it, and then there's the, the real evil side of it. And we know what side of the street the scene Walking story is on. I want to kind of slowly start to turn the ship now toward the more fun side of the street here because, you know, it's just a better hang. Like I said, monsters. This guy was a monster. Monsters, they come in all shapes and sizes. The real life monsters like Ian Watkins in the make believe kind. The less literal, the more literary types of monsters that happen to me be more fun when this month rolls around. The ones in our fiction, in the horror movies that we watch, and yes, in the songs that we listen to, especially during the Halloween season. Now this has been a big topic around here, these parts. Scary music, spooky music. I should say we did a, we did a bunch on it last week. We're going to take a different road into, into that subject today. Similarly, but not, not that different, but not exactly the same either. Kind of running with this theme of, of, of this monster theme here. Szeth and I will be ticking through some music recommendations of our favorite monstrous songs in the exclusive section of this episode in a bit. And I promise you that our recommendations will be tunes that you've likely never heard. We're not going to be recommending the Monster Mash or Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult, even though I love both of those songs. You're going to be getting tunes that will make great additions to your October listening routine. And like I said, it'll be real monster fare, both literal and literary. Okay, tunes that you're not going to get anywhere else. Tunes that will pull on your Gen X heartstrings. Okay, tunes that will make you long for an era long gone. An era you are either part of and miss dearly or missed and want to feel like you were there and want to live in it. 90s era monster music Recommendations that's what I'm talking about. Songs about the worst of the worst from the 1990s coming up in the exclusive section of this after party. But you got to be an all access member to listen.

Yes, yes, yes. Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back. This week, if you've been dialed into your Disgraceland feed, you heard our episode on Houdini with a freaky styley guest appearance by the Red Hot Chili Peppers and an exclusive mini episode on Slipknot's experience in the same haunted Houdini home. Patreon and Apple subscribers. They got the mini app, did you? All right. Coming up next after this episode, we are continuing our romp toward All Hallows Eve with classic creepy crawly rewind episodes this week on the Norwegian black metal scene and also on one of the greatest bands to ever do it, the Misfits. Next week coming at you, those leather clad Birmingham defenders of the faith, the mighty Judas Priest. Our new episode on Priest, the band's origins, their relationship to the whole satanic panic thing that overtook North America in the 80s, how the band got roped into that disgraceful PMRC dealio with Tipper Gore and the suicide pact lawsuit that threatened to ruin the band. That and, and, and a whole lot of hot leather daddy action that you're not going to want to miss in our next episode on Judas Priest. Coming up next week in your Disgraceland feed. Now, when you're listening to this episode on Priest, I want you to be thinking about, well, this is an easy one. I want to know who, in your opinion is the greatest metal band of all time and I want to know why. Okay, Judas Priest, part of the first generation of great metal bands along with Black Sabbath. And this episode deals with the question of who the greatest icons, who were they? Judas Priest, in my estimation, is definitely one of them. But are they the best? Are they better than Black Sabbath? Can you give it to them over Black Sabbath? I don't know. I. Yeah, we'll talk about it more next week. 617-906-6638. Call me, send me a text, leave me a voicemail and let me know who your metal icons are. And you know, why you love them, what they do for you, how they make you feel, how you relate to their music, their lyrics, their how these bands, these artists compel you. I want to know heavy music. I have a special place in my heart for heavy music and I know a lot of you do as well. And even if you're just one of these fly by night Heavy music fans, like, whatever. Like you're. You're into what you're into and it's not heavy. And who gives a right? Hall and Oats is cool even though they're not heavy metal, right? So you're at the, you're at the football game or whatever and you know, just that song comes on by Metallica or by. I don't know, I don't know. I mean Aussie, whoever it is, right? But it gets you going, right, Hockey fans, You know what I'm talking about? That Audioslave song comes I can't stand. I don't like Audioslave. But if I'm at a Bruins game and Audioslave comes on, I'm like, all right, I'm listening. What's the music that does that for you? The heavy music? Let me know. 617-906-6638. Voicemail and text. All right, speaking of calling me, I'm in the phone booth right now. It's the one across the hall. I'm hanging on the telephone, which means it's time to to hear from you guys on last week's question of the week via your voicemail and text. And that question was, which songs spook you out? Which tunes give you the heebie jeebies? What music is must listen for you around this particular time this season, the spookiest time of year, the five two zero writes in. Hey, Jake, first time writing in. It's Halloween, so I haven't heard you even mention the genre of Psycho Billy. The perfect mix of campy, spooky Halloween, rockabilly. Check out Necromantics, Horror Pops and Coffin Cats too. Well, listen, five two zero, we just dropped last week. I know it's not strictly Psycho Billy, but we just dropped our Cramps episode in the feed. A little rewind taste for you. Go check that out. All right, obviously there's a Psycho Billy connection there. And I'm pretty sure we do an okay job of explaining that connection in the episode. Haven't listened in a while, but it's available for you at the top of your feed. That Cramps episode. Go check that out. Give it a spin. 41 2. Has nobody mentioned Frankie Teardrop by Suicide as the scariest song ever? If not, consider it mentioned scary as fuck. So scary I can't listen to it all the way through. I may also be a punk ass bitch though, so there's that too. 412. You know, I read Punk ass bitch and I guess, you know, it kind of makes sense with Frankie Teardrop But I was like, hey, those are harsh words. And then I scrolled up here in the text thread history. You've texted a couple times and I was like, who's this dude writing punk ass bitch? And it appears from this earlier text where you say, what's up, Jake? It appears you're a woman. Okay. 412 okay. I mean, I'm not gonna quibble, I guess, with your, you know, if you're saying punk ass bitch also appears that you're a Pittsburgh Pirates fan. Yinz, what's up? How did so many of you end up in our audience? I don't know, but I love it. Keep it coming. 775 writes in. Say, since you have two Judas Priest songs on your list of great Halloween songs, why not make it three? Beyond the Realms of Death from Stained Class is one of my all time fave priest tunes. You're going to hear all about Stained Class in this Judas Priest Episode 775 that we've got coming your way next week. 816 writes in garage. They're making fun of my voice. It's okay. You want to make fun of someone with a. Someone's accent. Is that cool? Is that what we're doing now? Discos? I kid. Make fun of me all you want.

Well, I don't know. Every home. In every Home A Heartache by Roxy Music. I don't know that tune. And you know, I was. I actually heard a Roxy Music song this morning. Came on randomly and I.

The best spooky band of all time is Queens of the Stone Age. Have you listened yet to live at the Catacombs? It's dark, wet, drippy, spooky and haunting and they are keeping rock and roll alive. And I wrote back to her, I'm husband yet, but I need to thank you. Was listening to Queens yesterday at the gym and I think I hurt myself. That's a true story, ladies and gentlemen. And Marissa went on to say, get the vinyl, light a candle in the dark and listen to it loud. It's like you can hear the spirits. All right, Marissa. I dig that. New York City hardcore legend Gavin Van Vlack writes in Halloween song Bela Lugosi's dead. Bauhaus. I gotta admit, and I admitted it to Gavin. Bauhaus is a, is a, it's a whiff for me, man. It's a black hole in my. My musical knowledge. I know I've heard this song before, but I can't say that I'm familiar with this whole thing. Gavin also recommended Sisters of Mercy vision thing. All right. Oh, and then Ghost Town by the Specialist, Ghost Town by the Specials. I know we've got that record on. It's currently pulled out in our living room sort of vinyl turntable area. It's not mine though, it's my son's and I didn't buy it for him. Got it himself. I like that. All right, let's check out this voicemail from the 480.
- [26:32]
Hey Jake, this is Jessica and the 480. Long time listener, first time caller. Hopefully I'm not too late for the after party question about the spooky stories. But my old house was very haunted. Lots of strange occurrences happened there. The worst one, however, was one time. My oldest son was about 2 or 3 years old and I was measuring him against a growth chart that we had on the wall and all of a sudden he got this really scared look on his face and he clung onto my leg and I said, oh, buddy, what's the matter? And he said, there's a man. And I said. He said, right in back of you. There was nobody there. And I completely froze and then ran out of the room. But yeah, definitely one of the more spooky occurrences there, but thanks again for a great pod.
- [27:21]
Thanks for the spooky story, Jessica. Happy to hear that everybody's all right. You want to send in more spooky stories? Keep them coming. We were talking about that a couple weeks ago, but you want.

It's cruel and usual to ask such a broad question, but if there's a gun to my head, I'm blasting War pigs. Rest in peace, Ozzy. Thank you. Love the show, especially the Halloween episodes. Madison Miller, kcmo. I responded to Madison. I said, hey, you got it. Hope you dig the Judas Priest episode coming up on Tuesday. And then Madison responded, sorry, I think you might have the wrong number. I'm not sure who this is. Madison, it's Jake. It's Jake. Texting from Disgraceland. Come on, Madison.

Jake Brennan
You know, I got almost 48 hours of sports fan bliss this week. The Patriots won. Drake May look great with Mike Rabel I'm convinced is the right coach. Watched up in up in the New England area back in my hometown. Sat in a big living room with my stepdad and my son and and my brother in law and his family. Just a bunch of dudes from New England sitting around watching the Patriots. I can't explain how awesome that felt to do. I haven't done that in a while. Just, you know, it was real shitty out. It was raining on Sunday. It was just, you know, that kind of made it even better. I don't know why. It just did. Just felt very familiar to me. And the Pats won and it was fantastic and I flew home and you know, now just, you know, I was walking through the world yesterday thinking how great it was to finally have a football team that doesn't suck again and just how, you know, excited I am about this whole Drake May Mike Rabel thing. And then bam. This morning get hit with this Red Sox news. So listen, before I get into it, this 60 second sports rant in under 30 seconds is once again sponsored by 5 Hour Energy's new Pumpkin Spice flavor, your favorite fall drink. In an energy shot you can pick up a pumpkin spice 5 hour energy shot available online at 5hourenergy.com or Amazon. Matt, give me that ticker. You know, after the Red Sox ended their season, most every Sox fan sitting here going we overachieved this year. All right, with this roster, this is a super young team. This team has glaring holes that need to be addressed in free agency. The front office needs to bring in another pitcher, another starting pitcher by the way, a Stud. A real number two, if not a second ace. No sniffing around the margins with the ghost of Tommy John's triple A cousin. We need a real arm and we need a real bat. Just one more big bat. Go get us Pete Polar Bear, Alonzo, bring back Kyle Schwaber. And then, and then, and then we get this news this morning that Alex Bregman is most likely opting out of his contract and heading to free agency. So now the Red Sox not only have to have a stud pitcher in free agency come their way, they also got to get that big bat still. And then they have to re sign Alex Bregman. I can tell you can I pre hate the Red Sox for something that they haven't done yet because I can almost all but guarantee you that this pathetic. Yes, I said it. Pathetic. Front office doesn't make all three of these moves. There's no way at best they'll make two. And if they do, I guarantee they're going to use those two moves to justify not making the third move. Because that's typical of this front office Red Sox of the past decade. The way they work, they find ways to justify being mid. They find ways to spin us, the fan base, into believing that they actually care about competing with the Yankees front office. When they don't, they really don't. We're just a line item. We're a bigger part of a bigger business. It's going to be a long off season. I'm telling you that right now. Just like this was a long 60 second sport rant in under 30 seconds. Matt, how did I do? 146 Jake. Yeah, well, them's the breaks. That was the sports rant sponsored by five hour Energy's new pumpkin spice flavor. These new pumpkin spice five hour energy shots are fall in a bottle and bring that classic pumpkin spice flavor that know and love our favorite fall drink. In an energy shot, you can pick up a Pumpkin Spice 5 Hour Energy Shot available online at 5 Hour Energy.com or Amazon. All right, so you guys know that the true crime is just our own unique way into music history with Disgraceland. Same goes for Hollywoodland. True crime is just our lane in. It's our excuse to talk about music and to talk about movies that we love. Sometimes though, we just want to talk about great music and great musicians and great movies and great actors and actresses. Okay? Just because some great musician didn't commit some awful crime or have some awful crime happen to them or some great actor or actress, you know, same thing. Doesn't mean we don't want to talk to them. All right, Zeth Lundy, Dr. Lundy to you and to me, over in Double Elvis's Hollywoodland feed, has been killing it lately with this ongoing conversation about Hollywood history that he's been having with you guys. You know this assuming you're listening. If you're not and you love movies and you want a conversation on film history that you're not going to get anywhere else. And what are you waiting for? You need to subscribe to Hollywoodland. But anyways, back to what I was saying. We, Seth, myself and all you guys, sometimes we just want to talk about the music and the movies that we love, even if we don't have a crime angle. And since Seth has started over in Hollywoodland, he's had some pretty major icons die on his watch. Robert Redford a couple weeks ago and most recently, Diane Keaton. And Zeth, being the talented doctor that he is, has found this unique skill in paying tribute to these giants of the screen. If you want to hear what Zeth has to say about Diane Keaton, who, make no bones about it, was a giant talent, get on over to Hollywoodland in whatever podcast app you use and hit subscribe. Here's a taste of what you're missing.

I gotta take a second and talk about the late, great Diane Keaton, who we just lost a few days ago at the age of 79. Sometimes I actually forgot that her name was Diane Keaton and just call her Annie hall because her entire Persona, her style, it was so entwined, at least in my mind, with that great role she played in the 1977 Woody Allen film, the film that earned her her Academy Award for Best actress. Her maiden name actually was Hall. She changed it to Keaton, which was her mother's maiden name when she joined the union. And there was already another actress registered under the name Diane hall. But Woody Allen wrote that role for her. And so I've got to think that the character was in many ways an echo of the real Diane Keaton, just like Woody's character, in many ways is an echo of him. This was, of course, five years after her big break as Kay and the Godfather, a role she won out after Francis Ford Coppola auditioned something like a hundred actresses. And this role, the role of K, is so different from Annie Hall. I mean, there's so much that Diane Keaton is doing in this movie, but doing it low key. I mean, the whole movie is in her face at the very end when Michael lies to her and then the door shuts. On him as he's becoming the thing he never wanted to be, which is basically the devil. But it's all in your in her face. Your your entire understanding of what's happening, of what's just happened over the course of the two plus hours. What's going to happen. You see her seeing this and you're like oh fuck. It's one of the greatest non verbal pieces of acting, of reacting ever on screen.

All right, that's the Hollywoodland podcast. Make sure you're following on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcast. Speaking to people and things that we love. I am stoked to get into this conversation with Z on the music from the 90s about the worst of the worst. The monsters, the slack demons, the creepers who give us the creeps. Ian Watkins's murder last week in the Monster Mansion inspired this drive down the dark side of the recommendations cul de sac. And I hope you are all signed up as Rocka Rolla members on Apple Podcasts or Patreon so that you can hear this exclusive content. As always, that cost is a mere five bucks a month, but that cost is going up before the end of the month. So now is the time to become a disgrace on All Access members so you can hear at a reasonable price, of course, exclusive content like what we have coming up right now, as well as it being ad free. If not, either way, see you after the break. All right, aside from Black Sabbath, I don't know that we mentioned any artists that we've previously covered in Disgraceland today. I guess that means that we're pretty forward thinking. Pretty forward looking I should say. Maybe it also means we need new episodes on Sisters of Mercy. Maybe Porter's head, Nine Inch Nails. If you don't know what I'm talking about, that means you didn't hear Zethani in the All Access section. Matt will have the Black Sabbath episode details in the show notes of this after party if you want to easily find that story right now, however, we are going to recap. Number one, this week's full episode, Houdini with a special appearance by the Red Hot Chili Peppers is available for your listening pleasure at the top of your feed. Number two.

Don't forget disco's this isn't just content again. It's a community. A community of the obsessed. No one cares about music, books, records, and the crime and grime that ties them all together like you do. And, well, that's a disgrace. All right. On September 24, 1991, the Ghost of Houdini's housemates, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, released their excellent album, blood sugar sex magic with a K. Here's what America was listening to on that day, according to the Billboard charts. Number one, I adore mi amor, color me bad. Last week, two weeks on chart nine.
