Eddie Trunk

Years ago, I carved out an identity, and it has always been about having a voice to tell people about stuff I love. ”

Guys like Howard Stern, Bill O'Reilly, Jim Rome, Bill Maher, those are the guys I love and respect as broadcasters. ”

Metal has always been somewhat marginalized, and I love to prove the perception and stereotypes that go with it wrong. ”

I still love radio, but TV is also an awesome platform. ”

I'm completely open about the fact that I don't love every genre of metal. I like what I like. It's got to have some vocal quality and some semblance of melody. ”

The biggest compliments I've heard about 'That Metal Show' are the ones from people that say that they don't even listen to this kind of music, but, 'We love watching the show.' ”

People sometimes tell me that I don't talk or act or look like a metal fan. Well, what does a metal fan look like? I've found people from all walks of life who love metal. ”

To have survived in radio for 30 years is pretty remarkable. Even more remarkable is to have been able to do it in the same market I've lived in my whole life. ”

I have literally been working in music just about my entire life. ”

People tell me all the time I should stop and smell the roses, but I can't. I'm always thinking of what I can do to make what I have better and do more. ”
