Dee Snider From Twisted Sister | Beardo & Weirdo Ep.58

In this incredible episode, the guys are joined by heavy metal legend and Twisted Sister frontman, Dee Snider. Dee opens up about the frightening health reality check that ultimately forced his retirement from live performances. He details the hypertension, heart conditions, and worn-out joints that led his family to intervene and beg him to stop touring to save his own life. He also shares a hilarious story about how Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson almost convinced him to risk a comeback after bragging about thrusting and parrying on stage with his own new hips. The conversation dives deep into rock history, highlighting Dee's lifelong commitment to sobriety since the age of 13 and his beautiful, unlikely friendship with Motörhead's Lemmy Kilmister. Dee reveals how Lemmy acted as a guardian angel by introducing Twisted Sister and saving them from a hostile UK festival crowd early in their career, and expresses what it meant to receive one of the rare bullets containing Lemmy's ashes after his passing. Dee also discusses his unwavering integrity over the years, from his iconic PMRC Senate hearing testimony against Al Gore to his relentless advocacy that helped secure a $750 million insurance payout for the victims of the Station Nightclub fire. Finally, he explains the deeply personal reason he decided to try ayahuasca and plant medicine for the very first time at 70 years old to help him transition from a lifelong "warrior" into a peaceful "wizard."
