Episode Details

Chuck Billy’s memoir drops with a thunderous lineup of metal legends lending their voices—Rob Halford and Randy Blythe among them—each tribute hitting him like a gut punch, bringing tears to his eyes. Diagnosed with cancer at 38, Billy thought his life was over, but 25 years later, he’s reflecting on a career he’s still living, still singing with Testament. He’s grateful for the Bay Area thrash scene’s raw creativity and the metal community’s unwavering support during his battle, even helping reunite Testament through a powerful benefit concert. Now, with guitarists Eric Peterson and Alex Skolnick blazing ahead, Testament’s next album is already in the works—with 8 to 10 songs ready and studio time set for next year. Billy’s outlook? A deep, joyful appreciation for life’s moments, touring slower to truly see the sights, and savoring every note, every day.
