| Episode 26: Operation: Mindcrime Part One | 19 Aug 2024 | 02:07:52 | |
Hey, I Remember Now: The Queensrÿche Podcast listeners…are you ready for Operation: Mindcrime?? Ray and Steve decided it was finally time to tackle the monster 1988 Queensrÿche concept album on this new episode! It’s been a long time coming, and they’ve put it off for months, but the guys finally got it on the schedule. Due to the importance of this album in Queensrÿche history, it deserves at least a two-part episode. Part One delves into their personal histories with the album, a discussion on the cover jacket, the history of the record, and the beginning of the track-by-track breakdown and analysis of the classic story of Nikki, Sister Mary, Father William, and, of course, Dr. X! For a task this big, the guys welcome a very special guest to co-host the show and join the festivities. Who is it? Tune in to find out! Plus, some great calls from the listeners, including one from a bonafide rock star! We’d love it if you subscribed to the show on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, Amazon, or wherever you get your podcasts.

| Episode 15: Digital Noise Alliance – One Year Later | 17 Oct 2023 | 02:35:34 | |
Ray and Steve welcome frequent caller Logan to the show as a special guest co-host for the topic: Digital Noise Alliance – One Year Later. We met Logan when we asked for “young” Queensrÿche fans to get in touch with the show, and Logan fit the bill! At twenty-three years old, his favorite band has been Queensrÿche since he was nineteen. He considers DNA to be “his generation’s” Queensrÿche album. We give DNA a full, track-by-track analysis, rank the songs and the album versus the other albums we’ve reviewed. How have opinions changed over the past year? Do the hosts like DNA the same, much more, or less than they did in 2022? How do the opinions of a young fan compare to two old farts like Ray and Steve?

| Episode 8: Queensrÿche Deep Cut Starter Kit | 18 Apr 2023 | 01:44:43 | |
Join Ray and Steve as they welcome Kousin Gary from Asylum: The KISS Podcast, to the show. Why would the guys bring another KISS Podcaster on to a Queensrÿche show, you ask? Well…Gary is a bit of a “newbie” Queensrÿche fan. In fact, not too long ago, he wasn’t much of a fan at all. Ray and Steve thought it would be fun to try to expand his hits-based, fledgling fandom and help nudge him down the “Roads To Madness” by giving him lists of Queensrÿche deep cuts to check out and report back on. Tune in for the fun discussion as two hardcore Queensrÿche fans try to expand the horizons of a relative newcomer to the band! It’s a great time finding out what songs Gary loves and which song he dislikes so much that it cuts through the very soul of one of the hosts!

| I Remember Now – Episode 36: Setlist Extravaganza Part 1. | 17 Jun 2025 | 01:39:50 | |
Ray and Steve return with their Setlist Extravaganza episode. As any frequent listener knows, Ray has been complaining about the Origins Tour setlist and the recent Queensryche setlists for months. His big gripe is that the band basically treats the music of the Todd La Torre era as an afterthought and will not embrace who they are as a band in the new era. So…the hosts thought it would be a fun exercise to construct their “dream” setlists for the modern-era of Queensryche and give Todd his due! There’s also plenty of listener feedback on the last Classic Queensryche Countdown Episode and much more!

These questions and many more will be answered! There’s also listener feedback from Lisa, Andy, Kevin, and Producer Tim on past episodes. Steve reviews some recent non-Queensryche shows he’s attended and Ray has a bitch session on the lack of Todd La Torre-era songs in the current Queensryche setlist (yet again!).

| I Remember Now Bonus Episode with The Asylum Podcast | 17 Jan 2025 | 02:58:52 | |
It’s a combo/co-production episode of both Asylum AND I Remember Now: The Queensrÿche Podcast. In this bonus episode, it’s some Queensrÿche on Queensrÿche gladiators. Ray (of both podcasts) defends the 1986 Queensrÿche classic Rage For Order. In the other corner is our very own Steve, who defended the 1990 classic Empire. The rules: After a coin flip, the winner can either go first or defer their pick. The first selector chooses their “gladiator” or song for battle. After a short listen, the opponent chooses the song (or gladiator) to battle the round’s opening song. The other three Kousins then vote for the winner. The two pickers can also change their vote if they choose to. Whichever song has the most votes… wins. If there’s a tie, well, we’ll give that away, there wasn’t. Which album would you defend and/or which would win? We’d love for you to subscribe to the show on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, Amazon, or wherever you get your podcasts. Also, rate, like, and review!

Join Ray and Steve as they dive into their recent — and separate — experiences attending Queensrÿche’s Volume and Vengeance Tour, featuring special guests Accept! SPOILER ALERT – This episode is packed with insights, reactions, and full-on spoilers, so if you plan on catching the tour and prefer to go in blind, consider this your official warning! For everyone else, buckle in for a fun and detailed conversation covering everything from the meet & greet experience and merch tables to audience vibes, all the way through both bands’ powerhouse performances. Ray and Steve compare notes from two different tour stops, giving you a full-spectrum look at the show. The show was also to feature a “live” call-in from listener Jim from Irwin, who attended the show with Ray. Didn’t go as planned. And because it’s the Thanksgiving season, the guys close the episode by reflecting on the Queensrÿche-related things they’re most thankful for as 2025 wraps up and 2026 approaches, in a heartfelt and fitting end to a packed episode.

Ray and Steve are back with a new episode! In this episode, the guys dig into Queensrÿche’s 1999 album Q2K, the band’s first release after Chris DeGarmo’s departure and the debut of guitarist Kelly Gray.

They go track by track, rank every song, and compare Q2K against other albums they’ve covered so far. Expect strong opinions, some friendly jabs, and at least one ranking that’s sure to upset someone. Other topics include the announcement of the new Queensryche tour, the death of Ozzy Osbourne, some great listener feedback, and more fallout from Steve’s ranking of Anytime/Anywhere on the last Classic Queensryche Countdown episode.

Ray and Steve return with part TWO of their “Setlist Extravaganza,” in which they cover the current Iron Maiden “Run For Your Lives” setlist, talk about the three best setlists they’ve ever seen from any bands, get into the best Queensryche setlist they’ve seen from past tours, and a bunch of other nerdy setlist-related stuff!

| I Remember Now – Episode 47: The Headliners!-Iron Maiden-Brave New World | 27 Apr 2026 | 02:51:27 | |
Ray and Steve kick off their new series, “The Headliners!” What’s that, you ask? It’s a new series where the guys focus on the album being toured by a headlining band on a tour that Queensryche opened for. The first episode features Iron Maiden’s 2000 “comeback” album, Brave New World. Halford and Queensryche supported Iron Maiden for a portion of this tour, making for an absolutely EPIC day of metal!! For the album review, the guys welcome special guest co-host and one of the founding fathers of I Remember Now, Uncle Steve from the Uncle Steve’s MegaMaiden Zone Podcast!

| I Remember Now – Episode 46: Todd La Torre – Rejoice in the Suffering | 08 Apr 2026 | 02:22:31 | |
Ray and Steve are back with a brand-new episode! This time they’re stepping outside the traditional Queensrÿche catalog to dive headfirst into Todd La Torre’s bone-crushing 2021 solo debut LP, Rejoice in the Suffering. Packed with relentless riffs, blistering vocals, and zero compromises, this album shows a whole different side of Todd. With a major assist from lifelong friend Craig Blackwell, the big question is: Does it hit as hard as it promises? The guys go track-by-track through Rejoice in the Suffering, ranking their favorite (and least favorite) songs and breaking down just how heavy things get. Along the way, they compare it to Todd’s work in Queensrÿche, the influences heard throughout, and explore where this album fits in the broader metal landscape. What follows is a high-energy, opinion-filled discussion with plenty of strong takes, maybe even a few disagreements, and a discussion of why Craig Blackwell is not a household name in the world of metal guitarists! They also spend time digging into listener feedback from recent episodes. We’d love for you to subscribe to the show on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, Amazon, or wherever you get your podcasts.

| I Remember Now – Episode 45: Accept | 24 Feb 2026 | 03:01:51 | |
Ray and Steve are back with a brand-new episode that finds them venturing into uncharted territory…an episode of a Queensrÿche podcast that doesn’t focus on Queensrÿche! This time, the guys pay tribute to German metal legends Accept. With Accept opening the recently completed Volume & Vengeance Tour alongside Queensrÿche, and with so many fascinating parallels between the two bands, the timing felt perfect to spotlight this iconic group. Ray and Steve break down their Top 5 songs from both the Udo Dirkschneider era and the Mark Tornillo era, while sharing plenty of stories and personal memories about what Accept has meant to them over the years. Plus, there’s a ton of listener feedback from the recent Tribe album review episode, featuring calls from many members of our ever-growing cast of audience characters.

| I Remember Now – Episode 44: Tribe | 29 Jan 2026 | 01:43:33 | |
Ray and Steve are back with a brand-new episode, and this time they’re diving headfirst into Tribe, the 2003 release from Queensrÿche. With the band facing tight deadlines and creative pressure, the album marked the return of Chris DeGarmo, who contributed both songwriting and guitar work. Did his involvement give the band a spark or was it a case of the magic being gone? You’ll have to tune in to find out! The guys go track-by-track through Tribe, ranking every song and stacking the album up against the rest of the Queensrÿche catalog. What follows is a passionate, heated, and maybe even controversial discussion full of sharp turns, strong opinions, and plenty of debate. They also spend time digging into listener feedback from the last couple of episodes.

| I Remember Now – Episode 43: The Classic Queensrÿche Countdown Part VI | 13 Jan 2026 | 01:53:17 | |
Ray and Steve kick off 2026 the only way that makes sense: finally dropping the long-awaited Top 10 of the Classic Queensrÿche Countdown. Yes, we made it. The journey is complete. The debates were heated. The rankings were… questionable! Which songs crack the Top 10? Which tracks are criminally underranked by one host but heroically rescued by the other? And which song rises above the chaos to claim the #1 crown? (There can be only one!!) It’s opinionated, it’s full of memories, it’s occasionally ridiculous and it’s a blast from start to finish. Plus, the guys wrap up 2025 with a quick look back and tease what’s coming in 2026, including new ideas, new episodes, and probably more arguments about rankings. Buckle up—it’s a fun ride.
