he acclaimed hard rock/heavy metal talk show, hosted by Eddie Trunk, Don Jamieson, and Jim Florentine invites American rock legend Ted Nugent to take center stage with an in-depth interview discussing Ted’s influences, musical history, and how he avoided the usual pitfalls of the music industry all these years.

Looking forward to this one, much love and respect for uncle Ted . Eddie, would love to see Bruce Dickinson in the lineup sometime =)
I like how people still think Eddie is the one who books the Guests. VH1 dose this not him. He gets paid to work for VH1 classic so why do people get mad at him for the people on the show. VH1 books Ted not Jim, not Don VH1 . If your bothered by who’s on you have to write VH1 classic a letter. Eddie keeps saying this over and over and know one seems to listen. Teds a classic rock star on classic rock show. Don still most likely can’t stand him still but he’s getting a pay check and that’s all he cares about. Lol just in joy the music life to short.
The comment he made about Philip Seymour Hoffman was beyond rude and inappropriate. Once again he proved that he’s an a–hole. And why didn’t anyone ask him about HIS addiction – sleeping with underage girls?
I love how the media was making Hoffman out as the victim. I say good riddance to a junkie. Same goes for the likes of Lanye Staley and Phil Lynott. There’s no glory in dying from drugs.
….or dodging the draft, or being a pedophile. But defend what you wish Roland and ignore what you don’t want to discuss. Hey its America!
As for Staley, Lynott, and Hoffman… true, there’s no glory in dying from drugs. What’s FAR more important is the contributions they made while they were here.
That was some awesome guitar playing by Uncle Ted at the end of the show!
When his ex brother-in-law was about to hit the stand in a divorce armed with the tales, he settled. He’s been blown out on paternity cases,lawsuits,screw contracts,tax,divorces,lawyers,bad management,horrific investments, it is a wonder he still has his guitars. He’s right about Detroit,2nd amendment,Hilary,Obama,Texas and many things.
