About this listen

Is Keanu Reeves actually 500 years old? In this episode, we start by diving into the internet’s favorite conspiracy theory: that some Hollywood A-listers—like Keanu Reeves and Paul Rudd—are literal vampires who have discovered the secret to eternal youth.

Then, we flip the script to explore the legends who didn't live forever. We trace the true history of the "Hollywood Vampires" name, which began not as a monster movie, but as a notorious drinking club at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in the 1970s. We uncover how Alice Cooper resurrected the title for his supergroup with Johnny Depp and Joe Perry, transforming a badge of drunken excess into a sober tribute to the rock icons who died too young.
