IN WHICH I'm joined by my wife Helen during a roadtrip across country New South Wales and we discuss Derf Backderf's stunning new graphic novel MY FRIEND DAHMER (which got a rare five-star rating from me last month). It's 24 minutes of interesting discourse accompanied by the background noise of our 1999 Subaru Impreza pinging along the highway at 110kmh. And buy MY FRIEND DAHMER - it really is one of the best graphic novels to have been published this century. Compelling, terrifying, shocking and...ultimately...very, very sad. |

The 20-minute podcast features interviews with Josh Shooter (twice!), Hayden Zenith, Krackerjak, Warship AND Mrs Warship! Plus far too much Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Enjoy!

IT'S nearly the end of December so what better time to discuss what I read in November? So I talk about Asterix The Gaul, which I last read in the mid-70s. How does it stack up in 2011, nearly 50 years after it was first published? |

WE'RE baaaaaaaaaaack! In a wide-ranging podcast, Dann Lennard and co-host Mark Williamson discuss various subjects including: Why Dann is the most HATED man in Australian wrestling...how WWE is kinda shit right now...the local scene gone mad...veterans like Jungle Cat and Skyhawk talking crap online and why they do themselves no favours acting this way...Dann calls out Jungle Cat (ooooooooh!)...the idiocy of AV Dangerously from PWA Queensland allowing 15-year-olds to wrestle for his promotion (let alone promoting weedy Jeff Hardy wannabes like Sebastian Maximus on their official web site)...we laugh uproariously at the continued antics of "Triple D" Damien Drake and his "semi-national" promotion WWX (including their recent "takeover" of PWAQ)...and much more. Then...because we're NOT negative ninnies, we discuss some very positive aspects of Aussie wrestling including SWA's upcoming show at Cardiff Panthers, Newcastle Pro Wrestling's debut show on the weekend, AWF's recent card in Parramatta, etc. Finally, we discuss the benefits of having veterans working on your shows - not pretend veterans like Jungle Cat and Skyhawk, but legit blokes like George Julio in Melbourne and Lofty Pickford in Sydney. After many anecdotes and hilarious banter, we wrap the show up with a song, a little ditty I've dedicated to the various people in wrestling who've annoyed me in the past month. The song's a bit long, but you'll get the idea in the first minute what I'm trying to say. Enjoy. Running time: 1hr20min (approx.) |

IT'S a true meeting of the minds when the King of Porn DANN LENNARD and the King of Scotch MARK WILLIAMSON meet up with the King of Wrestling BIG HUSS in the heart of sunny Melbourne! Yes, it's the infamous PODCAST OF DOOM - courtesy of the Poor Horsemen's "Bah Gawd!" Whirlwind Trip to Melbourne - performed in front of a live (partly comatose) audience in our swanky apartment overlooking Crown Casino. Highlights of this tight yet sloppy podcast include... * A review of the amazing WrestleRock event we attended the previous night. Who did we meet? Who avoided us? What did Mrs Jenkins do to Dann Lennard? What did Dann Lennard do to Mrs Jenkins? Is it possible to out-grub Adam Gambino? They did it! Plus we review the incredible moment when Huss ascended to the pinnacle of the scene * Now that he is royalty, Big Huss magnanimously "apologises" to three people: AJ Maggot, Benny English and Ryan Eagles, AND * We talk about the recent shenanigans surrounding PWA/PWWA. For a group that has the word "Professional" in their title, there are times when you just have to shake your head and wonder... Needless to say, it's our most controversial podcast EVAH (and EVAH and EVAH...). Enjoy and never forget, "GO GET HIM, TOOOOOOO-NEEEY!" Running time: 38 minutes (and this time it's a SHOOT, bruthaaaaaaaaaa!) |
