KoPW - Matt Charlton & J-Crowned Vol. 2

[Sam Fain]

The fantastic Matt Charlton joins me for another round. This time we're talking about his latest book, J-Crowned: An Illustrated Guide to Champions of Japanese Wrestling, Vol. 2. When last we spoke, volume 1 was hot off the press, and the pandemic was just beginning. We dive into the past 8 months of living, a little bit of parenthood, and a whole lot of puroresu goodness. The names, the titles, the matches, and more are all a part of our conversation. While not strictly Filsinger Games related, there's a little chat at the end and some baubles here and there. Still, Matt's a great guy with a passion for the business and a deep involvement to this day with lots of people in the business, including, of course, his brother, Chris, who provides commentary for NJPW. We hope you enjoy and, as always, find the podcast on Twitter @kopw72 and Matt @shiningwizardds. Thanks for listening!

Looking forward to this one Sam. Matt's book "Eggshells" has been a great read, and I enjoyed the earlier podcast you did with him (which subsequently led me to buy his book!). Will give a listen soon!

Thanks, stu! Hope you enjoy it. The new volume is really good, in some ways I prefer it to the first - especially the joshi section.
