Pod of Doom: Mob Rules, 1981

This is Pod of Doom, a podcast dedicated to the British band Black Sabbath! The hosts of Every Pod You Cast return to discuss all things Sabbath: Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes, Chris Mancini, and Randy Allain of Media/Lit will be covering the Ozzy Osbourne and Ronnie James Dio eras of the metal pioneers. In the tenth official episode of the season, Chris, Justin, Randy, and special guest Eric Morgan (professional musician and bass guitarist) discuss the second Sabbath album with Ronnie James Dio. They talk about how “metal” Gandalf fighting a balrog is, imagine Dio creating multiple versions of himself á la Ash in Army of Darkness, and appreciate having an actual musician explain what makes Sabbath great. And of course, they recommend other artists they’ve been enjoying for your listening pleasure. Eric’s Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ericjmorgan Host Picks: We Know That It Is Good (A Song We Think Is Underrated or Just Really Like)Chris – The Sign of the Southern CrossEric – The Mob RulesJustin – Falling Off the Edge of the WorldRandy – Over and Over Nobody Wants Him (A Song We Don’t Like So Much)Chris – Country GirlEric – Slipping Away (doesn’t fit as well)Justin – Country GirlRandy – Voodoo (lyrically) Words That Glow (A Favorite Lyric)Chris – Falling Off the Edge of the WorldEric – Falling Off the Edge of the WorldJustin – Turn Up the NightRandy – The Sign of the Southern Cross Occupy My Brain (A Favorite Musical Moment)Chris – VoodooEric – The Sign of the Southern CrossJustin – The Sign of the Southern CrossRandy – Slipping Away Other Artists We’ve Been Listening To:Chris – GojiraEric – Miles Davis/Charles MingusJustin – Patriarchs in BlackRandy – The Boy Least Likely To
