This was great, I had to bow out during the Con for the interview so it's great to have this as a resource on the podcast. Are there still plans to upload video to the Filsinger YouTube channel?
And LEGO Corner, wow. That's something to commit to Sam if you are going to take on Rivendale. Perhaps we have a race? Sam v Todd who can build/give weekly updates on their set first Rivendale or Mos Eisley?
Since moving back to the states I've been slowly rebuilding my collection while watching wrestling at nights as I had to tear everything apart for the move and I'm starting to run out of shelf space...

I wasn't able to tune into the Road to GalactiCon event so it was definitely great to see the Joe Malenko interview posted. Great job with the interview, Sam!

I started listening to this episode while driving home from work tonight.
Yeah, this past Indy set was very eclectic in terms of the roster as there wrestlers from Mexico (Aramis and Arez,) from the UK (Michael Oku,) recently from MLW (Richard Holliday,) from Impact (Alan Angles,) from NWA (Kerry Morton,) and from places such as GCW and IWTV (rising West Coast stars Titus Alexander and Starboy Charlie.)
It was actually my idea to do the mentioned hometown advantage chart for last year's IPW set but I definitely based it off of the hometown advantage chart in the LOW section of the recent Ringside Companion.

Could not agree more... We have been truly blessed with an abundant variety of indy talent... And I've gotta say that I'm stoked with the amount of excitement that I could perceive in the voices of Sam Fain and Tournament Master while they discussed what's coming in the near future for LOW as well... Great time for FG promoters? Can I get a HELLZ, YEAH/AMEN?
