Pariah , you keep right on rolling my friend! And rolling...and rolling...and rolling. We need our hobbies, perhaps even more so given all the bad news as of late. Loved reading your Fanatic of the Month article, and slowly starting to have it dawn on us that it was indeed you! You had even foreshadowed it earlier, and I know I at least wasn't remembering that, at least at first! And thanks everyone for listening. Heck, I wasn't around for CGSR either, so its fun for me to fill in all the gaps that I've missed. Hard to believe that was over 32 years ago... WOW! Want to thank everyone on the Legends team (as well as Mark Ashby for the role he certainly plays) for doing these deep dives into the community's history... For someone who's never been much into collecting mementos of the past, it's kinda cool to see that others cared enough to hold onto these things and are willing to take the time to share them.

For someone else, like Stu, who wasn't around, at least as an active promoter, during the Club Galactica days, it is really cool to go through this history. I remember hearing about some of these different features from Chad, Tim, or Mark. But to see these newsletters after all these years is so amazing! It's cool coming across names of promoters, who are still active today, like Pariah, or promoters whom I met at Galacticons in the past. Such awesome history!
Thanks for listening, everyone!

Mirror this sentiment, I was an active promoter in this window, but some reason never subscribed for the newsletter. One of those things looking back I really don't have answer why I didn't, but it would have added so much to my fandom to have a community to interact with as it was a Solitaire game for me growing up.

Or for someone who got the first set in 1990 and thought it was a one off until 96 lol. It's nice hearing how the community came together.

Chad Olson, your concern about being bounced from the air in Bangladesh is also high on my list of concerns. One question I had is who runs Standards and Practices for Uncharted Territories. I hope they don't haul you guys in after episode 76. Great listen as always!

I just got caught up today. I enjoy listening to these episodes about Club Galactica with Mark and Mike. I also have always done a secondary COTG tag team championship (the IP Tag Team Championship) because the number of tag teams quickly warranted it IMO plus as a kid I had been used to seeing a secondary tag team championship (the United States Tag Team Championship) on the NWA which I watched with regularity on TBS. No big deal, but for Mania Weekend I actually went to 11 shows. I am looking forward to this week's episode which I will watch in a more timely manner (I usually listen to Uncharted Territory on the weekend that each episode is released but last weekend I was in both Los Angeles and San Francisco.)

Also, I was driving at the time but I think I heard Stu say he has teamed The Crusher with Jackie Fargo?
If so, that is a tag team I have also used alot and they have done well for me as 2-time EAWA Tag Team Champions in my fed.
