I am becoming more and more of a wrestling fan everyday. I have learned so much more about the wrestling world by listening to this podcast. Even though these guys are from Iowa they are okay I guess. Keep up the good work Kyle. I will continue enjoy your show. Doug sure wish I was you about to get watch 6 full days of wrestling. Last year I went to the NY collegiate wrestling tournament, I thought that was awesome. Routing for the underdog it was fun to watch Nassau CC 133lbser win it with a pin vs Hofstra. Okay looking forward to more episodes.
