   Power Ballads #11 Through #15 - | #109

   It’s been five years since we last tackled one of our favorite topics, so it’s time to fire up the lighters and get back to the power ballads! Back in Episode #21, we revealed our Top Five Rock Power Ballads of all time. Then in Episode #53, we expanded our lists with picks #6 through #10. Now, in Episode #109 of The 406 Podcast, Pip and Chewie continue the countdown with Power Ballads #11 Through #15. As always, these are our individual lists, which means plenty of debate, memories, stories, live performances, chart trivia, honorable mentions, and probably a few choices that will have you questioning our musical judgment. We’re talking Bon Jovi, Prince, Heart, Warrant, Guns N’ Roses, Cheap Trick, Bryan Adams, Tesla, Roxette, Peter Cetera and more as we dig deeper into the songs that made the power ballad one of the greatest — and most gloriously over-the-top — parts of rock history. Turn down the lights, grab your lighter, and get ready for five more power ballads from each of us. What did we get right? What did we completely screw up? And which songs belong in YOUR Top 15?

   Take Me Back - Pip Turns 50 | #108

   After an extended break, Chewie and Pip return with one of their most wide-ranging conversations yet. The episode begins with stories from Pip's unforgettable 50th birthday celebration, a Jimmy Buffett-themed party, and a weekend centered around Sammy Hagar's Best of All Worlds tour. From there, the discussion moves into documentaries about Michael Jackson and Hulk Hogan, the current state of professional wrestling, and the evolution of The 406 Podcast. The second half explores artificial intelligence and whether it can responsibly restore classic music and films without sacrificing their original intent. The hosts also discuss George Lucas' Star Wars Special Editions, rumors surrounding Scream 7, and preview several highly anticipated upcoming films, including Spider-Man, Avengers: Doomsday, and Secret Wars. It's another laid-back conversation filled with nostalgia, movies, music, and pop culture.
