BREAKING:  April 1, 2026 – Canada/Australia.  Mike and Harrison, co-hosts of the YouTube channel “Grab A Stack of Rock”, have announced that their popular programme, 50 Years of Iron Maiden, will take them at least 50 more years to complete.  This works out to approximately 51 years of Maiden-related programming once completed.  We reached out to both of them, to ask about this inconceivable task.

“Yes, it’s true,” confirmed Mike.  “We keep acquiring more and more Maiden stuff, meaning we have to keep adding more and more bonus episodes.”

Harrison added, “As the pedantic one, I don’t like the idea of a show called 50 Years of Iron Maiden taking 51 years to complete, but I do understand the necessity to document every nook and cranny of Maiden.  They really are one of the bands that deserves to have their discography looked at so thoroughly and completely.”

We asked the duo if 50 Years of Iron Maiden had turned out to be a blessing, or an albatross around their necks?

“A bit of both!” laughed Harrison.  “This is far more than I signed up for, but at least it means I have to do fewer ‘contractual obligation’ episodes.  I really wanted to wrap it all up in just 16 months, but here we are at month 16…”

Mike added, “I’m just waiting until the albatross does finally fall from my aching neck.  But, according to the math, I’ll be 104 years old when we do our final episode in 2076.”

“We’d better get working on the next bonus episode, Mike,” concluded Harrison as he pulled his co-host out of his chair.

“No rest for the wicked,” said Mike as a farewell.  “Oh wait, no that’s Ozzy.  Or Helix.  Or both.  I haven’t slept in two days.”

And with that, we look forward to the next 50 years of 50 Years of Iron Maiden!  Coming soon in 2076.
