Jeremy Wagner JAWS 50th Anniversary Interview

Interview available 2 October on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts

In this special 50th anniversary episode of The Daily Jaws Podcast, Ross Williams sits down with novelist and publisher Jeremy Wagner — also known as the guitarist for death metal legends Broken Hope and one of the world’s foremost collectors of Jaws memorabilia. Jeremy shares how a battered paperback of Jaws first captured his imagination in 1975, why Robert Shaw’s Quint remains his favourite character, and how his passion has grown into one of the largest private Jaws collections on the planet.

The conversation ranges from formative childhood memories and the emotional impact of key scenes, to deep-dive “Jaws therapy” about trauma, heroism, and Spielberg’s suspense. And just when Jeremy thought it was safe to sit down for a podcast, a surprise guest stops by to lay down the law — none other than Jeffrey Kramer (Deputy Hendricks himself).

This episode is part celebration, part analysis, and a heartfelt look at why Jaws continues to resonate 50 years on
