Welcome to the Show
Free Form Rock Podcast
Welcome to the wild world of the Free Form Rock Podcast, where we embrace every riff, solo, and scandalous hairdo from the glorious era of rock! If you’re a purist, a metal elitist who believes that any sound that isn’t an 8-minute guitar solo is akin to sacrilege, then this is your warning: you might want to turn down the volume and stick to your ‘perfect’ playlist filled with only the heaviest and most obscure bands that your no-caffeine diet can handle.
Here, we celebrate everything from shaking your head to classic rock anthems to moshing like a maniac at a metal concert! We love all the forms of rock—classic, metal, and everything in between. So, if your idea of a good time is debating over which band had the best leather pants, you’re in for quite the ride!
Sit back, relax, and remember: we don’t take ourselves too seriously—because if we did, we’d be stuck in the ‘70s, arguing over whether Led Zeppelin was better than Black Sabbath while wearing questionable platform shoes. Join us as we rock out the way rock was meant to be—loud, unapologetic, and just a little ridiculous! Tune in, turn it up, and let’s jam through the delightful chaos of our favorite tunes together!

David Pomeranz-It's In Everyone of Us
In this episode, we review an album that one of us picked to get even with the other co-host for picking crappy. The only difference is the other host picks crappy albums that he likes and the other co-host picked this album on purpose to mess with the other co-host. We scream at each other. High entertainment for people who want to hear us complain. Our tracks of the week are Wendy Waldman’s “Pirate Ships”, and The Doobie Brothers’ “Long Train Running” and we close with Lee’s song “Beauty In My Night.” Drink and have fun and listen!
