Clint talks about the difficult week he and thousands of Metallica fans had trying to secure tickets to the now 24 Sphere shows between October 2026 and March of 2027. He read listener e-mails and talks the special bond between the Big Four, Kerry King praising Kirk Hammett, growing MUYP on YouTube and how to put together an affordable recording rig. Enjoy!
