  <title>Van Halen #5 | &amp;quot;The Wild Life&amp;quot; (1984)</title>
  <description>Next episode will feature a deep dive on &amp;quot;Better Off Dead&amp;quot; and conclude the Van Halen saga. But until then, please enjoy:&amp;amp;nbsp;  A very well-rounded view of VH history by Eddie Van Halen in 1990  Sammy Hagar's arguably sketchy claims about Van Halen's numbers before and after he joined  Eddie producing and promoting a band called &amp;quot;Private Life&amp;quot; who obviously did not go on to amazing things (but hey, even if you or I never heard their songs, they still accomplished more than most of us, eh?)&amp;amp;nbsp;  Eve Clarke interviewing me about my &amp;quot;Perfect 10&amp;quot; VH tunes of the David Lee Roth era  Sammy's tale of meeting Eddie for the first time and joining Van Halen&amp;amp;nbsp;  The final installments of my real-time (and space-time) reactions to the Art Linson/Cameron Crowe teen epic that had a lot going for it even if it didn't come out fully cooked - &amp;quot;The Wild Life,&amp;quot; starring Nice Guy Eddie, Marty McFly's mom, Vincent Vega's heroin dealer, Clark Griswold's cousin Eddie, and the &amp;quot;Wanna take a bath?&amp;quot; gal from Pink Floyd's Wall film adaptation.&amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp; Monthly exclusive Rock History bonus feed here https://www.patreon.com/rockfilmrock Choose your preferred method of supporting the show for no money or maybe some money: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/whatsamatta Shirt designs with defeatist messaging delivered via bright colors and childish graphics: https://www.bonfire.com/store/justtheworstshirtsever/ Subscribe to me on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV4Up7xGgjioEC07bjwu4mQ Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justtheworstever/ Send me an email with show suggestions:&amp;amp;nbsp;Justtheworstever@gmail.com Suicide Prevention, Text/Call: 988 https://afsp.org/ National Sexual Assault Hotline 1-800-656-4673 https://www.rainn.org/resources &amp;amp;nbsp; </description>
