Ben Weinman & Marty Friedman

It's an interesting situation for Weinman, who has made quite a name for himself with his work in TDEP. Spin proclaimed him as one of the top 100 guitarists of all time, he's considered one of the fastest guitar players in the world and he's an inspiration for many young metal-lovers today. And he's still under 40 years old. As he admits early on in this episode, he grew up listening to and admiring the work of Friedman, who played on five albums with Megadeth in the '90s. The duo talk about how they form their bands and how Friedman is choosing musicians for an upcoming solo world tour supporting his recently released album Inferno. It's Friedman's 12th solo album since 1988.
