Ep 356 Magoo
Andy Frasco and Nick welcome rising bluegrass troublemakers, Magoo, to the World Saving Podcast for an interview that starts unhinged and then gets genuinely heartfelt. The conversation opens with tour-life, stories about the “rock band” era (opening for Buckcherry, shiny pants, chaos, ego, and bad decisions) before sliding into what really shapes musicians: sobriety, heartbreak, and the moments you realize you can’t keep “sending it” forever. There's also an insane story about one of the members of the band getting attacked by a bear. Magoo gets into the turning points, festival misadventures, waking up in the wrong place, chasing the wrong people, and learning the hard way that the band comes first. From there, the episode dives into identity and craft: how bluegrass overlaps with metal and jam music, why improv is such a huge part of their live show, and how you translate that energy into a studio record without losing the magic.

Ep 355 Nancy Wilson
This week on the World Saving Podcast, Rock n' Roll Hall of Famer Nancy Wilson joins Andy Frasco and Nick for an interview that covers the entire span of her career.

She also discusses what it was like switching up their sound in the 1980s to keep up with the times and how she has stayed creative during her five-decade career as a bona fide rock star. Tune in this week for one of the best music interviews yet with plenty of fun facts you've never heard before about Nancy Wilson's career.

Wolves of Glendale on Opening for Tenacious D, Comedy Music, and Going Viral
Andy Frasco sits down with Wolves of Glendale for a wildly honest, hilarious, and surprisingly deep conversation about comedy music, blowing up online, and saying “yes” when the universe nudges you. They break down how Wolves of Glendale went from Berklee kids and side projects to opening for Tenacious D, selling out shows, and building a massive fanbase. You’ll hear how comedy and musicianship collided to create something real, plus why testing songs live, embracing failure, and trusting your gut still beats “posting at the right time.” The crew also dives into Iron Songwriter, their new time-crunch songwriting series that turns movie lines into full songs in under an hour. If you’re a musician, comedian, creator, or just someone trying to figure out how the hell anything works anymore, stick around.

NIck & Andy: Bands That Should Quit, Bad Managers, and the Wedding Grift

NIck & Andy: Bands That Should Quit, Bad Managers, and the Wedding Grift
Andy Frasco and Nick ditch the guest format and go fully unfiltered on this episode of Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast, tackling one of the most honest conversations in the jam-band world, including who needs to quit and why. The episode spirals into a ruthless (and mostly bleeped) breakdown of bands that should probably hang it up, bands that should come back, and why the scene feels oversaturated right now. From there, the target shifts to managers, why so many are five years behind, terrified of other managers, and still throwing money at the same tired marketing playbook. They also dig into the state of the music industry, from festival economics and oversaturation to why so many bands refuse to quit and why managers keep recycling the same outdated ideas. It’s an inside look at how scenes get clogged, why presales matter, and what actually hurts live music in 2026. Producer Jack drops in to relive his destination wedding in Barbados, which was launched by a brutally honest rant about weddings, bridal showers, and the social pressure to spend thousands to prove you’re “supportive.” From gift fatigue to travel weddings and the misery of being too high up in the wedding party, Andy and Nick argue that the only winning move is being the seventh-best friend.

Amigo the Devil on Losing Everything, and the Song That Came After (EP:352)
Amigo the Devil joins Andy Frasco’s World Saving Podcast for an honest conversation about grief, coincidence, creativity, and what happens when life resets you overnight. This episode starts with Andy and Nick setting the scene, then Danny opens up about losing his home in a fire, what it meant to him, and the strange twist that he was recording a different song as it was happening. They talk about the shock of having no warning, the whiplash of going on tour while still processing it, and the painful irony of realizing how many lyrics in his catalog reference fire. Danny also breaks down his songwriting process, including the “blank white room” mental space he uses to clear out noise and find intention before purpose. The conversation drifts into being present, chasing the next thing, living in the dark long enough for your eyes to adjust, and learning to save a little kindness for yourself. It is heavy, it is funny in the way only real friends can be funny, and it is one of the most vulnerable episodes we have ever recorded. Trigger warning: discussion of house fire, loss, and trauma. 👉 Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday

Holiday Special w/ Todd Glass and Friends (EP 350)
This two-hour holiday special of Andy Frasco’s World Saving Podcast is a chaotic, honest, and hilarious end-of-year hang featuring deep laughs, uncomfortable truths, tour stories, and zero polish, exactly how this podcast is meant to be experienced. The episode includes extended conversations with Todd Glass, touching on stand-up comedy, mental health, creative burnout, vulnerability, and why embracing absurdity might be the only sane response to the world right now. Todd’s segments are so funny you can hardly believe him, but this is far from a one-guest show. Andy Frasco and the crew also bounce through music industry chaos, life on the road, friendships, holiday stress, personal growth, and what they are thankful for this holiday season. It's a blending of comedy podcast energy with music-scene honesty and classic World Saving Podcast derailments. This episode is perfect for long drives home for the holidays, flights, late-night listening, or post-holiday decompression.

STS9 on the Jam Scene Drama, Music Industry Economy & Making The Human Dream
Andy and Nick sit down with STS9’s Hunter Brown and Alana Rocklin for a very jam band episode of the World Saving Podcast. They dive into The Human Dream, STS9’s new concept-leaning record, why it captures what Sound Tribe really sounds like in 2025, and how their Santa Cruz environment and the devastating Big Basin fire shaped the music. They get honest about the modern jam band scene, from fan tribalism to former member Murph playing the old songs again, and why Hunter refuses to treat music like sports rivalries. There is also a frank talk about the brutal economics of touring, Red Rocks, and why even successful bands are rethinking how they hit the road as costs skyrocket. Alana opens up about raising a kid while living the musician life, losing her home in the fire, and turning that trauma into bass lines and new songs. Hunter gets into mindset, hypnotherapy, “being a great number two,” and what a more human music world could look like. If you love STS9, jam bands, live music culture, or just unfiltered conversations about art, music, and survival, this one is for you.

Music Industry Harsh Truths, Love is Blind, and Aliens
This episode of the World Saving Podcast starts silly and quickly turns into a brutally honest look at the music industry in 2025. You will hear unfiltered talk about ego, gatekeeping, inflated touring costs, bus rentals, backline fees, and why festivals feel like a risky bet. It is part therapy session and part industry reality check. The conversation then widens into community, capitalism, and whether modern music lost its rebel spirit. There is talk about audience expectations, Live Nation headlines, club economics, and what it takes to keep a band on the road. Things get weirdly fun with reality TV chatter about Love Is Blind in Denver, a detour into aliens and UAPs (also known as UFOs), like Atlas, plus how AI and copyright are changing creativity and marketing. A timely call from comedy legend Todd Glass adds real perspective on progress, history, and why the next generation might actually fix some of this. It is raw, funny, and surprisingly hopeful. 👉 Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday 📲 Follow Andy on Instagram: @andyfrasco The World Saving Podcast is part comedy podcast, part music podcast — with raw musician interviews, funny podcast clips, and highlights from Andy’s adventures on the road.
