GENE SIMMONS: Raising KISS Empire, Coming Clean to Shannon & Tasting Jam for the First Time
from Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum · host Daylight Media
Gene Simmons (KISS, Deep Water) joins us this week for a wide ranging and surprisingly tender conversation about the mother who shaped him, the bandmate he wishes he had saved, and the work ethic that still has him producing films at 77. Gene opens up about his Hungarian mother surviving the concentration camps, the moment he tasted jam for the first time in America, and why he believes the race only speeds up as you near the finish line. We also get into the painful truth about Ace Frehley, the intervention that should have happened decades ago, his new film Deep Water with Ben Kingsley and Aaron Eckhart, and the night in Belize at 62 when he dropped to his knees and finally came clean to Shannon.
