  1. So I finally was able to listen to the first playing of Bloody Roots (Saturday show), but to my surprise, the song/band labels are missing. How come? You’d think that if the info is visible on Sunday, it would be available Saturday too…

    • Good question! Took a little investigating, but turns out that “Winter” and “Cheater” are loaded in the Sirius XM system as one long track. So there’s a bonus Judas Priest song that has nothing to do with freezing icy winter metal…
