3 MAR 2026 · In episode 260 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, Jon Barbas is combining two separate interviews! Jon recently interviewed both Chuck Billy and Alex Skolnick of Testament and Metal Allegiance. In those two interviews, obviously similar questions were asked, even though they were both on for different reasons. The result is an interesting contrast in their experiences. Chuck tells a fond memory of Dio and Alex tells a fond memory of playing with Ozzy Osbourne. Then both of them give very different takes on Free Will. Hear what happens and let me know what you think!
