  2. Wrestling Art Ep. 60 - Chris Things MOTW w/ Cousin Ben: Triple-Header Edition

    Wrestling Art Ep. 60 - Chris Things MOTW w/ Cousin Ben: Triple-Header Edition

    Episode 60 is here pals! It's "Match of the Week" time once again, IN-PERSON with Cousin Ben, chattin' 3 matches that actually DO have something in common, the art & a heck of a lot of nonsense! These 3 bouts that I loved oh so much that are Blue Panther vs Hechicero, ZSJ vs Hechicero (that incredibly occurred this past January - 2 nights in a row!) & an all-time Lucha classic that was 2001's Atlantis vs Dr. Wagner Jr. We get into these 3 extremely fine Professional Wrestling matches in-person as Ben visits the new place up in the bug-ridden mountains of Australia's Sunshine Coast hinterland. We get sidetracked SO MANY TIMES with various delightful sidebars. This was a lot of fun. In my 'World of Chris-Things' intro monologue I talk getting back to it after the opening night of my current solo art show at the Scratch; (Chris Things 2025: "Los Luchadores vs Alien Invaders"), returning to some Wrestling Poster design & my upcoming Wrestling Club THIS SUNDAY & Lucha Fantastica NEXT WEEKEND in Melbourne.

    Wrestling Art Ep. 59 - Art Show Rambling Mess Solo Edition

    Episode 59 is here pals! Yes, I'm back after missing last week due to the general insanity of preparing for my latest solo art show (that just happened to take place LAST NIGHT) at my much-loved Scratch Bar. In this special solo episode I take you into the frantic, barely comprehendible ramblings of a wrestling-art-dude who's brain is melting by the minute. I talk all things about the lead up to this solo show. The good, the challenging & everything in-between. Take it as a snapshot of my current state of mind having finally put this 16 piece art show out into the world. All completed mostly over the past two weeks. We also had a really fun ALL-LUCHA edition of our Wrestling Club on the evening where I played some of my favourite lucha matches. I've included my intro speech and a little run-down of the playlist in question at the end of this episode. P.S. If you're in the area, please don't hesitate to come on down to Brisbane's Scratch Bar during the month of February to check out Chris Things 2025: "Los Luchadores vs Alien Invaders!" Enjoy!! ChrisThings.com.au is the place for 2025 calendars, my latest book, original art, prints & much more!

  5. Wrestling Art Ep. 57 - Chris Things MOTW w/ Richard of Video Plant: Double-Feature Edition

    JAN 16

    Wrestling Art Ep. 57 - Chris Things MOTW w/ Richard of Video Plant: Double-Feature Edition

    Episode 57 is here pals! It's a "Match of the Week/Critter-Nature-Noises" Edition of the show w/ my good pal, Richard of Video Plant - chattin' two quite unique & highly contrasting matches that we both enjoyed quite a bit! It's the amazing final to CMLL's 2024 ‘Torneo La Leyenda Azul' tournament that was Mistico vs Hechicero & the semi final to BJW's 2023 'Saikyou Tag League'; The Astronauts vs the Crazy Lovers! I always love chatting to Richard about the wrassles & this is no different! We go quite in depth on both matches, along with all things CMLL, Japanese Wrestling & even some Joshi chats! I really had such a blast here with all of the free-flowing wrasslin' nerd conversation you can handle. In my 'World of Chris-Things' intro monologue I talk a bit about all the things I have coming up for a pretty full-on start for 2025! Everyone be sure to be following Richard's @Video.Plant for all of the coolest cult cinema & VHS collecting goodness. And stay tuned for his upcoming FANCY NEW WEBSITE! P.S. Buyer-beware for the non-stop bug noises on this episode. It was my first from the new nature property & I don't quite have the studio properly et up just yet. That means lots of atmospheric cicada & toad nature noises! My apologies & rest assured it will hopefully be improved for next week. Enjoy!!

    Episode 55 is here pals! It's the "Match of the Week" Edition w/ the esteemed Unkle of Beeks back for another big ol' TRIPLE-HEADER, chatting 3 matches that I felt were all bloody delightful! Those matches being; Ultimo Guerrero vs LA Park, Vader & Bam Bam Bigelow vs The Steiners & Eddie Guerrero vs Low-Ki! ...We actually had a difference of opinion on one of them! Oh my!! Which one is it?! We also chat a bunch of nonsense, as well as some important, real-life things that are not nonsense at all. In my 'World of Chris-Things' intro monologue I chat about nearing the end of a slightly maddening December schedule & just generally how I'm feeling as we near the end of 2024. Enjoy!!

    12/12/2024

    Wrestling Art Ep. 54 - Wrestling Club Pt V + Travelling Art Carny Life Anniversary Special Solo Edition

    It's Episode 54 & another special solo edition, with some in-person audio from our latest WRESTLING CLUB event last week at the Scratch + I take you behind the wizard's curtain once more! As we've somehow gotten to 1 YEAR of my travelling art-carny life of hawking my art-wares all across this fair great southern land! I discuss everything that goes into the in-person events part of my art life; the planning, the logistics & most importantly, THE FEELS! I figure this might be interesting for any listeners who might be considering selling their art at your local markets, but also anyone who has an interest in what this life looks like. For the Wrestling Club portion of the episode, I was greatly appreciative of my mate & card-carrying club-member, Joe for recording some of the proceedings for us. We hear from previous episode friends-of the-show Joe, Faz & Bradley in what ended up what I felt to be a very fun evening had by all. Enjoy!! Play along at home with my art-shenanigans at ChrisThings.com.au - the place where you can also find my brand new 2025 Calendar + my fancy, self-published M.O.T.W. YEAR ONE art book! As well as a bunch of original art, prints, tees & much more!
