Roll Up returns to throw the spotlight on the original Gladiators - Brute & Massacre! What are some of our first and fondest memories of the pair? What did we think of their characters? How did they perform for us? Favorite storyline moments? And where do they fit, not only in the pantheon of Gladiator characters but the entirety of the classic GWF canon? Of course, we also have updates on the upcoming Filsinger Games Perennial, release teases, some real-world wrestling commentary, a little trip to the LEGO corner, and so much more! Thanks for listening!

40 minutes in before work and I gotta say Mike is killing it after time off. Thought he has had some great insight here on a lot of topics.
Great comments on the big swole topic in general and a good way to sum up that situation.

Another great episode. Loved the talk about the original Gladiators. Did not like them one bit. I was so happy when W.A.R. made its debut in 2094 and really took it to the Glads. Looking forward to this Saturday.

Great wrap up on the original Gladiators and their lineage within the CotG mythos. And great shout there Sam on the idea that 2087 is mid stream and creatively an interesting choice made by Tom on how to start fed. Start from the beginning or just pick up with the card on the back of the manual very smart of Tom to help ease the player into the game. Also awesome to hear Todd you cracked open and enjoyed that original Boba Fett Bounty Hunter ship. I think the moment you opened it some AFOL's felt a disturbance in the Not Mint In Box Force.

Although I totally respect the overall contributions that Aethrans have made to the COTG mythos as a whole, I can honestly say that I've never been much of a Gladiator fan (with the exception of the Aethran Atrocity - Havoc, of course)... This probably stems from my first experience with the game, over 20 years ago, when I shared a fed with a friend... Brute & Massacre were his absolute favorites while I was more into Wolf and the Greek Gods... That's what makes listening to you guys talk about the original Gladiators even more interesting... Since I never developed any deep impressions of my own, it's exciting to hear your thoughts and memories... Providing a solid overview of what makes this tag team so important to the history of the GWF from a canon perspective... Very nice work!
