Chaz N Schatz visit with Heath McCoy, best-selling author, award winning journalist, and sports writer from the Great White North. You may know Heath from his spots on And The Podcast Will Rock, where he’s forever defending David Lee Roth’s version of Van Halen, and we get to know Heath even better, deep diving on his journalism career, having been the entertainment beat reporter for the Calgary Herald.

We name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and we thought fondly of Ed from rushisaband.com. We forget to give a shout-out to our sponsors Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai but we meant to (must be the gummie hangover). More games, merriment, and pointing you all to this list of current links, it's...

Rush news, general nonsensical disorderly conduct, lack of regard for correctness or truth, and reckless endangerment of your whole-brain. This is the only podcast dedicated to increasing opioid release in your anterior insula, your anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and your posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), in addition to the basal ganglia and the thalamus...and all that that implies.
Some thick North Jersey accents and they give you some royalty-free sound effects and movie clips too - what more do you need to indulge your urge to scratch?! Join us - you know where to scratch - blah, blah...RushRash.
