Seangeek and FastFret Podcast

Episode 588

Rock, Metal, and the Wheel of Topics with Heath McCoy

Published on: 23rd March, 2026

With the wrestling history books set aside for now, SeanGeek, FastFret, and Heath McCoy turn their attention to music. The conversation ranges from the live album chemistry of Rush and ZZ Top, to the underappreciated 1970s era of the Scorpions, to Beck's ever-shifting musical identity — with a few rounds of the show's "Pass or Go" game thrown in along the way. Heath also shares some of his work outside of wrestling, including his interviews with comic book legends Neil Adams, Stan Lee, and Alan Moore, teasing a possible future episode dedicated entirely to comics.

About your hosts

Sean McGinity

Hi, I am Sean "SeanGeek" McGinity. And I am a geek. For me, the definition of the word geek comes from liking something so much, that I deep dive into it. Not just consuming it... but becoming it. I "geek out". Everything started with comics. I read them and studied them with a fine eye, and then started making my own. Since then, I have "geeked out" on movies (Star Wars The Evil WIthin, Hurt), music writing, recording, and performing (The Classic Embers and Dome), writing (the Symka comic and the upcoming Intuitives novel), and now... this Podcast.

Todd McGinity

Hey guys, SeanGeek here. Just to be clear, this is me geeking out on Todd "FastFretFingers" McGinity here. Todd is the GOAT. My brother is an established musician, mastering the Fretboard with a blistering discipline. If there was a guitar style, tone, pitch... Todd would find a way to replicate it. From his early days mastering Van Halen and Rush, his musical palate has expanded with forays into classical and flamenco, hard rock, blues and pop. From live performances to learning the recording process, when it comes to music, he has done it all.

Karen Bee

A lover of stories, beer, and cats, and a master of none. Catch me talking to Geek Boy every so often for the latest comic book TV show or movie, Star Wars, board games and other things cool. Hear me give my two cents, relate them to other things I know, and make other recommendations!
