On this episode of Growin’ Up Rock, Sonny and Steven are Talking Rock with Talking Metal’s main man Mark Strigl. You think you know a few things about Talking Metal and about Mark Strigl, but you have no idea. The fellas have a great time digging into Mark’s Growin’ Up Rock past and talking all things music.
What’s the Story?
Mark has been doing a rock podcast since 2005. In fact, when Mark started you could count the number of podcasts dedicated to rock music on one hand. Nowadays, the market is flooded with plenty of killer rock podcasts to help get you through the daily grind of work and life; Talking Metal and Growin’ Up Rock are a nice place for you to start. Mark has interviewed tons of great guests over the years, and has plenty of great stories to share, but Mark’s story is so much more extensive and entertaining than just hosting a podcast.
We get into Mark’s Growin’ Up Rock story as he shares with us how a rock and metal loving dude, who once felt out of place and like a “geek” among the rockers of the 80s, quickly adapted to the grunge music of the 90s and became comfortable as a “cool kid” working at MTV and VH1.
Mark’s story includes attending Berklee School Of Music, playing in numerous bands around the New York area, and working at MTV, VH1, Sci-Fi Channel and Fuse while getting the opportunity to jam on video with various musicians from bands like Exodus, Overkill, Twisted Sister, and more.
Mark is not a rock star that sold millions of albums, but he has a great and entertaining story that any music fan is going to enjoy, so delay no more and check out our convo with Mark Strigl from Talking Metal.
A Special THANK YOU to Restrayned for the Killer Show Intro and transition music!!
