Steven Michael and Sonny “Hollywood” Pooni are first and foremost music fans. We live for music. It’s a part of our lives from our childhood days through adulthood. Music is present in everything we do today. In particular, we love the hard rock and metal music we grew up with in the late 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s. We seek out new rock music that reminds us of our youth and takes us away from the long commutes and daily grinds that so many people struggle with each and everyday. Sonny and I share our memories and stories, as do our guests, and we encourage the listeners to take part and tell us their stories.
Growin’ Up Rock podcast is a weekly dive into the hard rock and heavy metal music you loved in your youth as well as the rock ‘n’ roll that is creating the soundtrack to your life today.

Fantastic podcast with some very interesting interviews. Steven Michael does the interviews and is very good at asking interesting questions and really making it feel like two friends are just hanging out talking rock. The episodes that have Sonny in the mix are very good as well as Steven and Sonny have excellent “on-air” chemistry! Keep up the great work guys. You keep recording the episodes and I’ll keep listening. —Robert De Pasqua
