Alice Cooper’s longtime guitarist / collaborator Ryan Roxie is doing plenty to keep creatively active - from hosting his own podcast and livestreams to launching the System-12 Guitar Method. So what inspired him to finally launch his own guitar lesson project? Plus, how did Alice Cooper influence his passion for golf? And what was it like to meet his guitar hero Rick Nielsen and favorite band Cheap Trick for the first time?

Find out what Ryan reveals in “There Goes My Hero” - an interview series where Matt and Zach talk to their favorite artists about the first time they met their idols. Hear our guests relive every glorious (and possibly embarrassing) moment from encountering their musical heroes, and how that experience impacted them for the rest of their lives.
