The Doc G Show August 5th 2026 (Featuring Robby Takac of Goo Goo Dolls)

The Goo Goo Dolls have been making music for 40 years, they skyrocketed to fame when they released Iris as part of the City of Angels soundtrack. The song has gone on to be one of the most popular songs in history. It has been streamed 3.6 billion times on Spotify alone. The Goo Goo Dolls released multiple successful albums over the decades with big hits like Slide, Black Balloon, Broadway, Stay With You, Better Days and Name. Through those 40 years of music Robby Takac and John Rzeznik have been there. They're currently touring the country once again, and will be in Florida on August 24th. Before coming to Florida Robby was nice enough to stop by the show! Robby and Doc talk about getting ready for tour, the continuing popularity of Iris, the popularity that came in the late 90's, making a switch from a predominantly punk hard rock sound to the more acoustic sound, playing with Motorhead, playing with Red Hot Chili Peppers, preparing material for the 20th anniversary of "Let Love In" and so much more! Meanwhile on the rest of the show Doc let's folks know Moe's is the way to go...no bias...none.
