Mal Thursday welcomes legendary producer, provocateur, and scenemaker Kim Fowley to the program for the first of two episodes dedicated to the wildest recordings in his massive back catalog, which contains over 5000 songs. Currently being portrayed by Oscar-nominated actor Michael Shannon in the big screen rock 'n roll biopic The Runaways, Fowley is, in his own words, "a jerk, a genius, and a pig." Sit back and immerse yourself in the man and his music, the legend and the lunacy.
