(RECORDED ON AUGUST 8, 2025) Anyone who's a regular/semi-regular listener to the podcast most likely is aware that (drummer) Lars Ulrich is jamilah's biggest musical inspiration; and that his band, Metallica, is her second favorite (after Earth, Wind & Fire).

(RECORDED ON AUGUST 8, 2025) Anyone who's a regular/semi-regular listener to the podcast most likely is aware that (drummer) Lars Ulrich is jamilah's biggest musical inspiration; and that his band, Metallica, is her second favorite (after Earth, Wind & Fire). Despite discussing the band quite a bit, there has never been a 'Flowers' episode.
With this episode- airing just as the band's self-titled album (aka 'The Black Album' celebrated its 34th year of existence), jamilah shares the mic with friend (and fellow Metallica appreciator) Dave Ferraro, where they discuss how they came to love the band, meaningful moments from the music (and at shows), and of course, the concept of the 'Metallica family'.
In addition, there's plenty of laughter, a bunch of hot takes (which actually may not be hot takes), 'St. Anger' theories and conspiracies, some crew love, and much more!
