Merle is definitely speaking the truth when he says not wanting to be a kid growing up in the world now. I’m 52 years old and honestly feel so sorry for the youth now . A lot of them are fu#%ed from the start and it’s so sad . It’s definitely a messed up world. Haha I also loved lockdown and really miss that time.

I feel sorry for all those who passed away or people who lost loved ones but for me feeling like I was in a empty world,seeing no vehicles,wildlife roaming through the tiny village I live in it was just amazing . Sure I will never see times like that ever again .

Bought a dvd with him and also got a nice little letter! He's surprisingly wholesome in some ways

Great interview!

Need more from Merle! Hanging out together on the False Profit bus in Morgantown at the old legendary 123 Pleasant St bar! Great memories from a time in my life that was so different, but I would never trade those years away.

This was awesome! I loved Merle's personality and energy😁

Love this interview! I have a lot of pieces signed by Merle. Don’t get me wrong I love GG but it’s nice to see Merle actually get to sit and talk about what interests him and not having to sit and talk about his brother all the time.

I have thought for a long time that a book or documentary just about Merle Allin would be excellent to have! He has his own interests and tastes and unfortunately, we don’t get to hear about them as often.

Definitely need to get merle back on here! This was great! Legend

Loved this one !

Wow, yeah he needs another interview about his brother and their band. I'm sure he has a ton of unbelievable stories.

I wish these guys each had their own interviews. Steve spoke very little but his past and life seem very interesting, and Merle is Merle, crazy interesting himself and brother to GG.

The dead men don't rape t shirt is awesome haha

More Merle and Steve please and thank you

Would love to see a longer interview with Merle!

We need a just Merle interview!!! About his life, GG, his music career etc.

Great interview

these dudes are so genuine. fascinating conversation.

Mark u gotta have Merle back for story time. These guys were cool. It was nice to get an interesting story that isn't tradgedy

Great interview mark

Always loved Merle!! I was so fascinated about gg, and he was awesome enough to send me gg flyers back in the 90s! I will always remember that ❤wish i could get in touch with him again 😢it was the best feeling ever receiving mail from this legend

Mark is so polite. When he shows him his head tattoo, he says “cool”.

This has to be one of my favorite interviews you’ve done.

I stole a GG bumper sticker off of the merch table at a Murder Junkies show like 10 years ago and now I feel bad...

I have known Merle for over 20 years.... He is an absolute sweetheart! I remember seeing his John Wayne Gacy collection back in the 90's...

Interesting interview. I got bit of chills when Steve said it's like admiring a poisonous snake at a zoo, and Mark saying "I get that". Because after all, Mark is a collector of poisonous snake stories too. We are all fascinated with these things but some people aren't as open about their curiosity. Also we need a full on interview with Merle about his life at home and with the band. I want hard pressing questions, give me some new tea, I have a love/hate/fascination for gg Allin, but I also want to press Merle about the abuse GG put people/especially women/especially underage women through.

Good to see GG's brother is doing well. This was a pleasant surprise.

I wasn't expecting to see Merle Allin on this channel.

It’s pretty ducking funny, though. Unfortunate he doesn’t have his Hitler mustache anymore.
