Pod Pick: Interviewing Ozzy in 2010, Rudy Sarzo’s Concert Memories

Before OzzFest came to Hartford in 2010, Ozzy Osbourne made a surprise call to Chaz and AJ. The call only aired a few times, but was revisited this morning to celebrate the life of the Prince of Darkness, and the answers that may never be fully understood. Plus, bassist Rudy Sarzo shared memories across four different interviews with Chaz and AJ of touring, playing, and fighting with Ozzy Osbourne, and gave his best perspective from the stage of his last-ever show.
