Somewhere in Time Podcast celebrates 200 episodes! What better way to celebrate than by discussing the album where the podcast got its name?! As it so happens, Somewhere in Time by Iron Maiden is also celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. To help celebrate both occasions, the podcast welcomes back two guests who know the album quite intimately, Navid (current singer in Iron Maiden tribute band, Eyes of the Nile) and Fern (currently in Metallica tribute band Obey Your Master and formerly in Eyes of the Nile).
