It's really ashame that KISS is so disrespected in the music industry, because Paul is one of the greatest voices in American rock history (in his prime). As far as Americans go, I put him right up there with Elvis, Frank, Jim Morrison, Steve Perry, Hagar, Daryl Hall, Prince, and MJ.....but he'll never get any credit because KISS's music was so cartoonish. Sad.
@@42tripod he had Tommy Lee on the podcast at episode 19 but not the rest of Motley Crüe hopefully he will one day. He’s also had Sammy Hagar and Dee Snider of twisted sister
This was so good. Paul has been asked these kinds of questions many times, but Paul really expanded on them Like never before. Never heard him Go into what it was like being a cab driver, and his take on it. Really nice work from Steve-O and his team.

This band were my idols ! I had everything kiss , belt buckle , shirts wallet , my room was covered wall to wall and ceiling with posters , pictures ! Had eight track , albums and cassettes ! Knew every song by heart ! I love all them to this day ! The best rock band ever !
Great to see Paul in such good form & refreshing to see him interviewed by someone who doesn’t try to out do him with their Kiss knowledge. Well done Steve O
Every time this man speaks, I learn something about myself, life, what I believe, think and feel. It's not for nothing that he is such a good song writer: he knows how to formulate a thought, how to make it rhyme, how to put it into melody. Paul Stanley is a poet at heart. I'm a dreamer. Too much sometimes. I should act more and dream less. Paul once said a phrase which, to this day, serves as a mantra for me: ''Dreams become impossible when you decide they are''. This artist is precious. He's not just ''a Legend Tonight''. He's a legend every night!
As a huge KISS fan I can honestly say this interview with Paul was awesome. My favourite part was when Steve-O had him on the ropes regarding what the avatar shows are going to entail. "Oh we're having a meeting about it tomorrow".
I USED to be such a HUGE Fan… Then came the Pandemic and all of the comments made by Paul. His attacks on the “deadly in-vaccinated” and then the whole “masking” issue came out, Then, the uncalled for attacks on President Trump and “Trump’s J6 mobs of Insurrectionists” and his desire for imprisonment of anyone at the Capitol. What a way to lose 50% of your fans. WHY CAN’T MUSICIANS *JUST* MAKE MUSIC!?!??
That was an awesome interview. I’ve met the members of KISS. I’ve seen them 210 times live gone on all the KISS cruises and Paul Stanley is my favorite member. I have to say he got me through a lot of hard times I can just really really relate to Paul Stanley!!!

Steve-O was so right in his introduction, Paul is incredibly humble, down to earth, especially for such a decorated human being responsible for shaping so many musician's after him. Great interview!!
He’s so much better as a person, musician, guest, etc. then Chaim aka Gene. I had the pleasure of meeting Paul in NJ a few yrs back. He took a pic and gave an autograph. Very nice guy.
Exactly. Gene is a dirty old man in his interviews. Paul is so calm and has such a wonderful aura about him. I would definitely love to hang with Paul. Definitely not with Gene.
Great interview Steve-O!!! Paul looked relaxed:). His answers were genuine and well thought out (not the typical generic answers he sometimes gives) He seemed at peace with where he is in his life. Don’t forget - The guy just conquered the world! ⚡️⚡️🔥⚡️⚡️
I have always loved Mr. Stanley's outlook on life. My dad died when I was 11 in the Yukon, so i was always on the lookout for male role models, Mr. Stanley was one of those figures who inspired me to charge ahead, while keeping a self monitoring eye on myself. Thank you Sir!

great interview steve and crew. Paul, if you happen to see this, we would love to see some more of those videos like you did during covid where you explain some of the bands early history, from home.
Is it really though? I like half of the songs on the album. The title track is great (with a stellar guitar solo provided by Mr. Mister guitarist Tim Ferris), War Machine & Rock and Roll Hell (Bryan Adams co-writes) are good and the Gene/Vinnie Vincent I Love It Loud is a classic. I can't stand Saint and Sinner, Keep Me Coming, I Still Love You and Danger and Killer is just ok. It is not an album I can throw on and enjoy it all the way through.
It's amazing seeing Paul in an interview where he doesn't shit on everyone, I feel like he is a different person now that KISS is not the main talking point.
That would be a wild episode in the best way possible. I’ve seen Ace a few times and I can say with certainty that you have absolutely no clue what he’s going to say or do at any given time. 😂
Hell yeah!!!! My childhood heroes and to this day my favorite band of all time. You wanted the best and you got the best the hottest band in the land KISS!!!!!!!!!
I was that age in mid 90s and my older sister had Destroyer. I loved the cover and used to steal her CDs when she was away. I sang all the songs and not afraid to admit even at six, I loved Beth. Early kiss was awesome. Alive!, Destroyer, RnR Over, Love Gun. Love Dynasty too. Kiss was my fave band from that age to my late teens. Ace made me pick up guitar. Admittedly I havnt listened to kiss in awhile, but all those albums bring back memories. Got alot of my friends into them too
Wow!!!What an great interview. I've had the pleasure of meeting Paul in the 70s and also during the Re-union tour a great guy very down to earth cool dude.
I know the feeling of the dad thinking you’re lucky. There really is no such thing as luck. As a dad myself now, I fully support my kids in all their dreams.
7:49 Paul acknowledged that most of us grew up in kind of dysfunctional families. Many people don't talk about it. Paul did. This is cool. And very motivating.
@@james---b When he said "like most of us" maybe he meant his neighbourhood, or immigrants like his parents in general, or Rock musicians, or the KISS community.
Very good interview with all participants and best guest. As a fan in 76 i was the heavy kid with KISS shirts, liked pro wrestling, and was most importantly Christian. So small town flack was there,48 years later, still same guy.
I am not a Kiss guy- i don't hate them at all. I didn't know what to think about Paul S but this interview changed everything and i see him in such a different and positive light.
My mom dated Mark Slaughter from the band Slaughter and said he brought in Paul to her work (Nevada Palace) one day to show off that he knew him. She said he was super sweet and small 😂
People talk smack about KISS, but the reality is, they're just human beings like us who succeed and fail. They donate a LOT of money to various charities without making a big fuss about it. Leave them be: they sacrificed everything to create dreams that ended up financially helping many others with all the insane amounts of money they made and most of us just simply can't say the same. I have nothing but respect for Paul Stanley.
“Once upon a time there was a band” that’s surreal to think about because I’ve seen kiss they were my first concert in 2012 and these bands are slowly going away and we need to be glad we’re alive to see them alive and play in our lifetime because we may never get these kinds of bands again
That’s crazy 😂 I’m 45 , saw Kiss for the Millennium New Years 🎉 IN VANCOUVER BC with my then long term Girlfriend , Who wasn’t pleased that on the BIGGEST, AND POTENTIALLY LAST 💻💣🤯🎉😮😂 Y2K MELLINIUM NEW YEARS BASH , she couldn’t believe that I got us Tickets to see these old wrinkley ass 🧀 rock stars” that were already on “classic rock” stations (On a thing called a radio .

And we still ended it with a Bang !! 😂 And 12 years later you still were able to see them as your FIRST CONCERT ! 😂 things are just different these days . Old is younger now
That was a great interview. I didn't know that they had sold the rights to Kiss. I hope that the company who bought the rights treats it with respect. Also, I agree with him 100% about the Internet and the news media. Information has become a product that corporations sell. They spin information to appeal to a audience. The truth isn't profitable. Telling people what they want to hear is profitable.
pretty sure this is the first interview I have ever listened to for him. He is really soft spoken and not what I imagined at all-I can see him being a Yoga teacher--not going to lie. What a treat! thanks, guys!
Paul is a real one. One of the few elite level rock stars that’s a genuine dude and really does it because he’s a musician like we are. Would love to have a cup of coffee with Paul and just get his advice on life/music business.
Shout out to the guys for keeping their composure, because honestly I would have been way too star struck to keep the interview going. Steve-O did a great job with pacing the questions and keeping the overall flow smooth. 10/10 guys!
I thank Paul for being an honest man in this interview.And thank you to the team for putting this together. Life experience of others teaches us a lot.
As a live long fan of kiss ( I am 57 now and my first album was destroyer ) my love story with kiss began early. First I saw them in a Magazine in 1974 I believe. Never heard a tone of music but I was blown away just by the look. Than my mum gave me the destroyer album at my birthday in 1977. And than I heard them for the first time. Every time I listen to Kiss I have this flashback again and feel like 10 in my heart! I saw them live 6 times , two shows in original line-up. Every show was a blast. And I also loved every era and line up. Not loved eeeeevery song but in general I do! About paul, well, rockstar supreme! What I really do love most, that he always kept Kiss alive during the hard years. He is the best example for " work on your dreams"! Thanks to Kiss for all the amazing shows and music in all eras. And especially to paul , thanks again for keeping my fave band of all time alive. I honored kiss with a ink of the iconic masks. I put them on the insinde of my left under arm. So, they are with me always! Like the relation with my beautiful wife, its a never ending love story! Last but not least, Steve - O! You are awesome man, also your story is inspiring! You are also pure rock'n roll! Love ya!❤
I think perhaps, his & Simmons opposing personalities or persona's, call it what you will. Made KISS what it is & why they pioneered this kind of music
Paul Stanley? WOW! The level of your fame has increased so much, guests are all famous celebrities. It's truly amazing. Everybody knows you more than ever and you're so entreating man. Since your first podcast to today , your journey inspires all of us. Thanks dude. We fucking love you Steve.
I have been a Steve-O fan for years but I am new to this show. Not sure who the guy in the black hoodie with the glasses is but he is definitely a buzz-kill. I am 53 and have been a massive kiss fan since the age of five and have seen them countless times. But I never would have dreamed Paul Stanley carried the wisdom he carries in his head.
Steve O says you beat Led Zeppelin by a lot!😂 great comment and compliment. I love Led Zeppelin though! Thanks for the memories, Paul you’re awesome and my idol as a kid to play guitar, but I never sang much.

Every time you get a Paul moment like this or by reading his autobiography. I always learn something about myself that I hadn't realised before

Being an avid cyclist certainly helps
Eat your vitamins, and don't do drugs .

Paul is right, Creatures of the Night is underrated and should have been bigger.

I can't stand Saint and Sinner, Keep Me Coming, I Still Love You and Danger and Killer is just ok. It is not an album I can throw on and enjoy it all the way through.
Creatures is one of my least favorite KISS albums. The mix is also muddied and needs more treble. Rock and Roll H- sounds terrible.
YUP!
Maybe, but when you release nothing but garbage for years, you can't expect people to still be with you.
I Still Love You should have been a number one hit.
Thanks guys for having Paul as a guest. This is the first time I watched your show! Now, I'm going to watch more! Great job, and GREAT GUEST!
It's amazing seeing Paul in an interview where he doesn't shit on everyone, I feel like he is a different person now that KISS is not the main talking point.
That’s what hours of therapy does,at least it’s supposed to. He actually sounds like a therapist.
Man I loved this. Paul is such a good interviewee! Hey Steve O, any chance you could get Ace Frehley on the podcast? He might have some wild stories
That would be a wild episode in the best way possible. I’ve seen Ace a few times and I can say with certainty that you have absolutely no clue what he’s going to say or do at any given time. 😂
It's funny, in an interview Gene Simmonds was asked about Paul Stanley. Gene said "everything I think I am, he(Paul) is".
That is a genuine compliment to Paul, and a realization that Gene knows Gene plays the part of arrogant. I loved his show Gene Simmons Family Jewels
Hell yeah!!!! My childhood heroes and to this day my favorite band of all time. You wanted the best and you got the best the hottest band in the land KISS!!!!!!!!!
Paul is a class act.
My first album was Kiss Destroyer. I was 6 years old and scared to death of the cover!

I thank Paul for being an honest man in this interview.And thank you to the team for putting this together. Life experience of others teaches us a lot.
As a live long fan of kiss ( I am 57 now and my first album was destroyer ) my love story with kiss began early. First I saw them in a Magazine in 1974 I believe. Never heard a tone of music but I was blown away just by the look. Than my mum gave me the destroyer album at my birthday in 1977. And than I heard them for the first time. Every time I listen to Kiss I have this flashback again and feel like 10 in my heart! I saw them live 6 times , two shows in original line-up. Every show was a blast. And I also loved every era and line up. Not loved eeeeevery song but in general I do! About paul, well, rockstar supreme! What I really do love most, that he always kept Kiss alive during the hard years. He is the best example for " work on your dreams"! Thanks to Kiss for all the amazing shows and music in all eras. And especially to paul , thanks again for keeping my fave band of all time alive. I honored kiss with a ink of the iconic masks. I put them on the insinde of my left under arm. So, they are with me always! Like the relation with my beautiful wife, its a never ending love story! Last but not least, Steve - O! You are awesome man, also your story is inspiring! You are also pure rock'n roll! Love ya!❤

Thanks for sharing the interview with us. #RockNRoll forever!
Paul is a living legend 👍
This is absolutely legendary!! Did not see this coming! 🙌🔥🤯
Thats what I was thinking too. Crazy!
Thanks, Mr.Paul Stanley !
I think perhaps, his & Simmons opposing personalities or persona's, call it what you will. Made KISS what it is & why they pioneered this kind of music
Paul Stanley? WOW! The level of your fame has increased so much, guests are all famous celebrities. It's truly amazing. Everybody knows you more than ever and you're so entreating man. Since your first podcast to today , your journey inspires all of us. Thanks dude. We fucking love you Steve.
I saw Steve-O's RV driving down to San Diego passing Camp Pendleton on Sunday. Pretty cool to see!
Luck is finding opportunity where others dont see one! Amazing quote from Paul!
I have been a Steve-O fan for years but I am new to this show. Not sure who the guy in the black hoodie with the glasses is but he is definitely a buzz-kill. I am 53 and have been a massive kiss fan since the age of five and have seen them countless times. But I never would have dreamed Paul Stanley carried the wisdom he carries in his head.
Haha! Not sure if you’ve seen the episode with Gene, lol he was not vibing with him 😅.
Damn gene and Paul on here. Nice going guys!
Steve O says you beat Led Zeppelin by a lot!😂 great comment and compliment. I love Led Zeppelin though! Thanks for the memories, Paul you’re awesome and my idol as a kid to play guitar, but I never sang much.
This guy held Kiss down in the 80s.
I saw KISS in 1979 in Seattle. Crazy cool for me as a young 12 year old
Thanks Stevo, this was awesome. Paul is the Boss, Gene think he is.
Terrific interview!
Star~child…………….in my opinion? Greatest front man of all time, in the day the voice to match.
