Tom makes the grave error of a) inviting Buffalo Music Award winning hard rock band Suckerpunch into his home and his heart, b) letting co-host Alie (Desiderio's) bartend with only Wild Turkey as a hard liquor and c) trying to host a cohesive interview show throughout. Total bedlam ensues as Tom, Alie and the band gear up for a 'parter of two' that will rock your f-ing socks off!

Bob sets it off on acting coaches, his tail-chasing days with Jack Nicholson & Warren Beatty, and the art of 'a cappella', a form of musical enchantment.
