You boys are a class act. My faith in the heavy has been restored...

The Corazon has also made things right... The Metal Gods are smiling on the Duty tonight.

P.S. I like the Polls... that is, until the 18th century, when the nobles' democracy had gradually declined into anarchy, making the once powerful Commonwealth vulnerable to foreign intervention. Over the course of three successive partitions by the countries bordering it (the Russian Empire, Habsburg Austria and the Kingdom of Prussia), the Commonwealth was significantly reduced in size the first two times and ultimately ceased to exist in 1795. The idea of Polish independence however was kept alive throughout the 19th century and led to several Polish uprisings against the partitioning powers.

Poland regained its independence in 1918, but the Second Polish Republic was destroyed by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union by their Invasion of Poland at the beginning of the Second World War. Nevertheless the Polish government in exile kept functioning and through the many Polish military formations contributed significantly to the Allied victory. Nazi Germany's forces were compelled to retreat from Poland as the Soviet Red Army advanced, which led to the creation of the People's Republic of Poland. The country's geographic location was shifted to the west and Poland existed as a Soviet satellite state. By the late 1980s Solidarity, a Polish reform movement, became crucial in causing a peaceful transition from a communist state to a capitalist democracy, which resulted in the creation of the modern Polish state.

Right?

My one-stop shop for Blink 182 and Godsmack news.

Good to hear the Devildriver and Manson love being spread around. I like agreeing with you guys. Oh, and it's Devildriver's 4th album coming soon. Sounds killer.

Great podcast. Demon bees? Fucking hilarious!

Shake Hands With Beef is a term for masturbation or the act of giving a handjob to a man. Another possibility is confronting someone you don't like, as in shaking hands with someone you have a "beef" with.

Les Claypool has stated before that the song title was inspired from a friend who claimed to be a vegetarian, but would occasionally eat meat. "He'd say, time to go shake hands with beef."
