This is Pod of Doom, a podcast dedicated to the British band Black Sabbath! The hosts of Every Pod You Cast return to discuss all things Sabbath: Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes, Chris Mancini, and Randy Allain of Media/Lit will be covering the Ozzy Osbourne and Ronnie James Dio eras of the metal pioneers.
In the second official episode of the season, Chris, Justin, and Randy are joined by The Pop Break editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin as they dive into Sabbath’s most famous record. They praise the band’s antiwar social consciousness, engage in spirited debate over “Iron Man” and “Planet Caravan,” and wonder whether the Sabbath band members will ever recall a collective memory the same way. And of course, they recommend other artists they’ve been enjoying for your listening pleasure.
