Bon Jovi is back onstage after years of uncertainty surrounding Jon Bon Jovi’s voice, recovery, and future as a live performer.

In this episode of the MX3 Podcast, we discuss Bon Jovi’s return to touring, the early history of the band, the unlikely radio breakthrough of “Runaway,” and the stories behind classics such as “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Wanted Dead or Alive,” “Bad Medicine,” and “Blaze of Glory.”

We also explore how Jon Bon Jovi assembled the original lineup, Richie Sambora’s near connection to KISS, Dave “Snake” Sabo’s role in the story, the exhausting tours that nearly broke the band apart, and the remarkable comeback that followed. Plus, we share memories from seeing Bon Jovi live and debate whether the group is still truly Bon Jovi without Richie Sambora.

MX3 Podcast discusses money, motivation, and relevant events with honest conversation, personal stories, and a little humor along the way.

What is your favorite Bon Jovi song, and do you still consider the current lineup the real Bon Jovi? Leave your answer in the comments.
