The Memphis Mafia is back! In Episode #46 of Dangerous Conversations with "Dangerous" Doug Gilbert & "Wildfire" Tommy Rich, Gene Jackson sits down with Doug and Tommy for their 7th “Ask Doug & Tommy” fan Q&A episode, and it’s a wild one from start to finish!

This week, the boys tackle YOUR questions and open up about:

• 
  

  Doug’s very first match in Malden, Missouri and the incredible wrestling history that came out of that small town

  
  


• 
  

  Tommy’s memories of his Memphis run in 1980–81, winning and losing the NWA World Title, and why he turned heel on Lawler

  
  


• 
  

  Hulk Hogan vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin – who meant more to the wrestling business?

  
  


• 
  

  Eddie Gilbert’s psychology in the ring and why he could make ANY opponent look good

  
  


• 
  

  The ugliest injuries they’ve ever seen in person – from compound leg breaks to tragedy in the ring

  
  


• 
  

  The most athletic “big men” they ever wrestled – Bam Bam Bigelow, Jerry Blackwell, and more!

  
  


• 
  

  The wild backstory of Big Business Brown and how he broke his arm taking a bump on live TV

  
  

Plus: Memphis Mafia road stories, rare insight into wrestlers who never got their Japan run (but should have), a tribute to Brian Christopher, booking announcements, merch talk, and plenty of unfiltered laughs along the way.
