What would you get if you mixed one part MTV and one part Survivor? You’re about to get the answer courtesy of Johnny Colt and the Travel Channel.

Johnny Colt’s “At Full Volume” will chronicle the experiences of JC as he travels to various parts of the world and gives us an all access pass to lands and cultures that most of us have only read about.

Colt’s musical resume reads like a rock star’s wish list. Best known as a member of the Black Crowes, Colt has also played with some of the best musicians and bands in the world including the Grammy award winning band Train and Rock Star Supernova. Colt also co-hosts the Atlanta AM radio talk show Politely Disruptive on WMLB AM1690 (the Voice of the Arts). And much like Johnny’s music, “At Full Volume” will be devoid of borders, boundaries and will most likely appeal the adventurer in all of us (even those of us that are afraid to get on a plane….don’t judge me).

In the show’s premier Johnny travels to Thailand. Click here to read about his journey and just a few of the experiences that awaited him there.

“At Full Volume” premiers Monday, September 7^th at 9PM so make sure have your television sets tuned into the Travel Channel and let us know what you thought.

Update: See our interview with Johnny Colt here.

In the show’s pilot episode aired earlier this week, Colt basically traverses the globe and acts like a badass. It was an action-packed hour that saw Johnny traveling through Thailand, free-climbing cliffs, boxing cobras, and getting his butt whooped in a muay thai match. Good times.

I was lucky enough to catch Johnny with the Crowes a few times back in the ’90s, making this new show that much more enjoyable. The dude is the real deal—a modern-day pirate raised on rock & roll. Don’t miss the rebroadcast of “Johnny Colt: At Full Volume” this Thursday (and again next Tuesday) at 11pm on the Travel Channel. In the meantime, check in with Johnny at his blog: johnnycoltfullvolume.blogspot.com. Keep it coming, Johnny! —Brian Fox
