Welcome to the first episode of Those Who Are About To Dive: Chronicling Colosseum Track by Bloody Track with Dr. Glund, where two aging music freaks—Chaz Charles and the one-and-only Dr. Glund—light up the memory banks and take a deep, hazy plunge into the psychedelic waters of Colosseum. If you’re expecting NPR, you’re in the wrong ocean, pal.

This isn’t your dad’s music podcast—unless your dad spent the '60's and ‘70s in a cloud of vinyl dust and questionable smoke.

So spark up, tune in, and hang on as the guys toast to old friends and new obsessions. This is podcasting with no brakes, no bones, and no apologies—just pure, unfiltered love for the music that blows your mind. Here's lookin' at ya Klay Kole, let’s have a viskey...
