Podcast Information
About the Host
Host Name: Steffan Chirazzi & Renée Richardson
Host Residence Country: United States
The editor of Metallica’s So What! Magazine, Steffan Chirazi has been writing about -and working with- the band since 1984. He has also written for many publications worldwide, including Kerrang! and the San Francisco Chronicle, interviewed literally hundreds of stars from David Bowie to Kurt Cobain, and provides a continual chronicle of James, Lars, Kirk, Rob and Metallica since the days of Ride The Lightning. Chirazi has also worked with Sirius XM on their Mandatory Metallica channel as a producer and host, and does the same with a weekly podcast on his beloved English soccer team Tottenham Hotspur titled "The Game Is About Glory."
Renée Richardson is the Director of Philanthropy for Metallica’s foundation, All Within My Hands. While this is her most significant professional achievement to date, Renée also has a long history on the airwaves in San Francisco. Renée’s radio career began in the late 90s as Renée Rotten on zi, and a few years later, she rebranded as Renée Richardson and joined the KFOG Morning Show. Her 17 years as a “Foghead” were spent as an on-air announcer, music programmer, and she cultivated the Bay Area’s music scene as assistant producer of the KFOG Local Scene series. After an unexpected showing of the door by Cumulus Media in 2016, Renée prioritized philanthropy. She spent three incredible years as Director of Development for Blue Bear School of Music, a 501(c)(3) music school in San Francisco, while also working with “Irish” Greg McQuaid to create Renée & Irish Greg’s Pop-Up Show, an immersive live and in-person podcast featuring music, conversation, and a fundraising element for various NPOs. When the call came, she was positioned perfectly to take on her new role with Metallica’s foundation. Renée is a Missouri School of Auction trained auctioneer and a voice actor best known for her role as a Chevron talking car. She lives with her husband, Mike, and a toothless chihuahua named Rocco.
