Insert Witty Title Here

Author: James Cummings January 11, 2021 Duration: 28:24

In this episode James continues to himself, much to the chagrin of the nation. He discusses keeping himself busy with the day job, the VO aspirations, and helping his friends with their forthcoming podcasts. Video games, socializing, and the announcements of confirmed guests round out what is possibly the most off-the-cuff episode thus far. Whisky was involved.


James Cummings hosts Death Metal Disco, a comedy podcast born from the chaotic intersection of seemingly opposite ideas. The title itself is a clue: this isn't a show about one specific thing, but rather the delightful and absurd collision of high-intensity passions with everyday life. Episodes meander through a wide-ranging mix of topics-you might find a deep dive into a cult horror film followed by a heated debate about the best roadside diner pie, or a travel story gone awry that somehow loops back to an obscure metal album. It’s the shenanigans, the hootenanny, and the general hullabaloo of just being a person with eclectic interests. The conversation is less an interview format and more like pulling up a chair with a friend who has strong, often hilarious opinions about everything from music and movies to food and philosophy. Listening to this podcast feels like being in on an inside joke that somehow makes the whole world seem funnier. James guides these freewheeling discussions with a comedic voice that finds the weird in the mundane and the relatable in the extreme. It’s a space for unstructured curiosity and laughter, where the only real rule is that nothing is too serious or too silly to talk about. The result is a consistently surprising and entertaining audio experience that defies easy categorization, much like a disco beat dropped into a death metal song.
