Chaz N Schatz host a cavalcade of Rush Tribute All-Stars from YYNOT, Solar Federation, A Farewell To Kings, and Second Contact. Join the guys and their special guests as they ponder all things Xanadu, the seminal work off 1977's A Farewell To Kings. An elemental song in the Rush catalog, it marks a tipping point toward a more synth-influenced sound. Where does our panel land when it comes to this cut? We dig deep with this all-star lineup to share our own feelings and understanding of why Rick Beato says this is Rush's best song ever.
Chaz, Schatz and our friends:
- Eric Wirsing, Julie Schreiber, and Ffej Herb of Solar Federation
- Tim Starace of YYNOT and The 2025 Bubba Bash
- Dr. Matthew Halper of Second Contact
- Johnny VInes of A Farewell to Kings
- A Special Mystery Guest
We fail to name-drop usual suspects like rushvault.com, and rushisaband.com. Again, we most egregiously forget to give a shout-out to our sponsors Danforth & Pape, and podcastle.ai but we meant to (must still be that damn THC seltzer and scotch hangover). No games, but heavy on the merriment, and pointing you all to this list of current links, it's...

Rush news, general nonsensical disorderly conduct, lack of regard for correctness or truth, and reckless endangerment of your whole-brain. This is the only podcast dedicated to increasing opioid release in your anterior insula, your anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and your posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), in addition to the basal ganglia and the thalamus...and all that that implies.
Some thick North Jersey accents and they give you some royalty-free sound effects and movie clips too - what more do you need to indulge your urge to scratch?! Join us - you know where to scratch - blah, blah...RushRash.
