Yes, the one that Gene Simmons insults one of the nicest people in the world today and almost walks out in the middle of the interview.

He also made it so that Fresh Air could NOT post the audio on-line!

If you never heard it, tune in!

Times do vary, so check this link for air times or, if you want to hear it now, at this link:

Btw, right now they are replaying an interview with two of the guys from "Spinal Tap!"

1. I listened the first time
I never cared much about G.S. but he really pissed me off with his total rudeness.

2. I really hope they play the whole thing...
...I had just started listening to Fresh Air when this first aired and hadn't started recording the show to listen back to them when I driving or just pay full attention to it, so I've only heard this once.

6. Hummm, I wonder how long that will be there?
In other words, will he try to get that taken down too?

They played James Hetfield's interview yesterday.

5. Yep, The replayed Robert Plant's interview yesterday...
...and two of the guys from Aerosmith too.

I think it's an "end of Summer" thing.

7. That was a train wreck.
I tried to explain it to people but they didn't understand.

9. Not sure I'd use the word "was"...
...I could be wrong, but I get the feeling he's always like that.
