Link To The Cast

It's time for another Grap Up with returning guest Bryan Rose @br26 as we preview the upcoming G1 30. We discuss the return of New Japan post-covid break, the rise of EVIL, and go through the 20 participants of the G1 to give our thoughts on who has a chance of winning (spoiler - we didn't pick Yujiro).

This week, Link to the Cast takes a detour, and instead of being able to bring you an extensive Euro 2020 preview as is tradition, we're instead looking back to childhood as we begin a two-part look back at the legendary Euro 96.

Dave and Jack are joined by Lee Malone ( http://twitter.com/malone_713 ) from the Days of Thunder podcast, and Alan Counihan ( http://twitter.com/Alan4L ) of PWTorch's ProWres Paradise to talk the highs, the lows, and the dentist's chairs.
