Hello, Lovelies! This week's show is a tale of two worlds that's sure to intrigue. First, Fanbyte's Colette Arrand joins Brian to discuss WWE's talent cuts and overall response to the coronavirus pandemic. Then, Brian reunites with his close friends Hollis Adler and Sarah Rose for a surreal trip down memory lane, reliving their college radio origins and the odd beast that was our former internet talk show, Open Til Midnight. Don't worry. There's still plenty of wrestling talk packed inside!

Hello, Lovelies! It's a special episode this week as Brian Bell and his partner, KC, return from D.C. with a live report from Prime Time Pro Wrestling's historic LGBTQ pro wrestling event, Butch Vs. Gore. The show was filled with unforgettable moments and star-making performances that told LGBTQ stories from LGBTQ perspectives. That and Juvenile's ass anthem being used as a weapon. Like we said: memorable.
