Revealing Interviews from the Heart of Hollywood Entertainment and Music Production
For Immediate Release: July 2026 Candlepower Records and Electracast Media proudly celebrate three years of The Candlepower Hour, the podcast that brings listeners up close and personal to the people who create and power live entertainment, film and television.
Hosted by Hollywood production veteran Diego Negrete and produced by the legendary Bill Metoyer, guests range across the entertainment industry including rock/metal luminaries Vinny Appice, KORN, Limp Bizkit, Spacey T, Roy Z, Michael Ciravolo and Bruce Robb, and entertainment insiders like A&R rep Jeff Blue and former IATSE member Mariah Petzoldt.
The Candlepower Hour prides itself on how many of its featured guests include today’s and yesterday’s colorful and loud crew members. “What makes our show unique is our approach to storytelling and driving interviews,” says Negrete. “Our combined experiences make for a wonderful and shocking listen.”
ElectraCast CEO, Mark Netter adds, “Rock ‘n roll and entertainment production is more than what you see on stage or screen. It’s an insane, tough, yet rewarding lifestyle where anything can happen.”
With support from a roster of co-hosts, The Candlepower Hour draws on decades of industry insight from Hollywood professionals. As a lifelong musician with over 40 years of songwriting, touring, television, and film experience, Diego knows what it takes to put on a great show — and what it takes behind it.
