LOUD AND SAD RADIO
Premiere Episode Debuts Today at 4:00p PST on Apple Music Hits
Loud and Sad Radio will feature a weekly collection of music, ideas, interests and off the wall randomness that represents the epitome of Pete, including movies, emo, rap, punk rock, classic rock, sneakers, bad jokes, dad jokes, Twitter ephemera, and beyond. Pete will bring the songs of the past to the forefront with a relevant lens and a sharp wit. He’ll also welcome guests to discuss the latest Tom Cruise leaked audio but play nothing but soundtrack hits. Never serious, sometimes irreverent, Loud and Sad Radio is a radio experience delivered like only he can.
Best known as lyricist and bassist for multi-platinum, GRAMMY-Award nominated band Fall Out Boy, multi-hyphenate Pete Wentz has used his foothold in emo and punk to build a following all his own through his various creative pursuits. Now he adds Radio Host to that mix, with the launch of Loud and Sad Radio on Apple Music Hits.
On the premiere episode, Wentz explains the premise of the show: “You’ve really got to think about this as moments meeting from divergent courses, somewhere in the realm of the TV show Curb Your Enthusiasm meets the movie Drive. And this is what Loud and Sad Radio is… It doesn’t have to be loud and it doesn’t have to be sad, but there’s some things that just have that vibe. Loud and sad is a vibe to me.”
Tune in to episode one of Loud and Sad Radio for Wentz’ musings on soundtrack assassins, the merits of Caddyshack 2, Kim Kardashian’s appearance in Fall Out Boy’s 2007 music video “Thnks fr th Mmrs”, Erewhon merch, the undeniable power of Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing”, the best Batman, plus music from The Weeknd, Arctic Monkeys, Kenny Loggins, Paramore, Metallica, Linkin Park, and more.
