January 12, 2026·3 hr 52 min·15 clips

DJ Steve Snookus returns with a two-hour mix titled 'Snookus Goes to Hollywood'—get ready for an incredible sonic journey.

This episode features host George Lyons reuniting with DJ Steve Snookas, a UNLV alumnus and longtime friend of the show, for a special two-hour music mix. The episode centers on the exclusive premiere of Snookas's new curated mix titled "Snookas Goes to Hollywood." George Lyons broadcasts from the KUNV studio in Greenspun Hall at UNLV in Las Vegas, while Snookas joins remotely from Luxembourg. The first hour of the mix opens with The Doors' "L.A. Woman" from the album of the same name. The set includes "I'm Coming For You" by Deep Dark Robot and "Hollywood Yourself" by Warren Suicide. Listeners also hear "Probably Will" by Concrete Blonde and "Little Sun" by Blues Pills. The Dead Weather's "Blue Blood Blues" from the album *Sea of Cowards* prompts a caller to express amazement. Other tracks are "Jack's Smirking Revenge" by the Dust Brothers and the French song "Le Vent Nous Portera" by Noir Désir. The hour concludes with Poe's "Today" from the *Great Expectations* soundtrack. A notable moment involves George Lyons mistakenly attributing a track to Blues Pills before Snookas corrects him, identifying it as The Dead Weather. Snookas shares a personal memory of seeing The Dead Weather live at the Pearl Concert Theater in Las Vegas. The second hour is dedicated entirely to music from Maynard James Keenan, featuring songs from his bands Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer. The host emphasizes that the mix has been reviewed in advance and is described as "absolutely incredible." The tone is enthusiastic and conversational, marked by the host's energetic delivery and camaraderie with the guest. The style is that of a curated music radio show focused on track-by-track presentation and artist commentary. Listeners who enjoy eclectic, genre-spanning mixes and deep dives into alternative rock and related artists will appreciate this episode. Those preferring talk-based programming or a single musical genre might find it less engaging.
