Maynard to appear on MTV2’s 120 Minutes

According to a recent post on various Maynard related Facebook sites, Maynard will be appearing on the February 24th episode of MTV2’s 120 Minutes with Matt Pinfield.  According to what I read “Matt Pinfield the legendary host and walking encyclopaedia of all things music is back at the helm and bringing his friends into the conversation.”.  Sound like another Matt you guys know?
