All-Elite Wrestling presented their first official PPV, Double or Nothing, and NXT Takeover XXV is this weekend!  We've got the full breakdown for both shows, the finals of the NJPW Best of Super Juniors is upon us, and everything else that happened in WWE this week! Today also marked the return of our Live Stream on YouTube! Every Thursday at 8PM Eastern, 5PM Pacific!

Today, we are going to discuss two different stories...two women, one who changed her identity to hide from her family and everyone in her previous life, and the other who was running from the law.  The first story leading into the second involves the sad tale of Lori Erica Ruff...we take a look at how she managed to become a completely different person and the path her life took in the ensuing years.  Next we are going to discuss our fugitive.  In 1975 Susan LeFevre was busted by an undercover Michigan State Trooper selling heroin at a local pizza restaurant.  She claimed that the prosecutor pressured her into pleading guilty, admit to the crimes, and she would avoid jail time and be sentenced to probation.  But, when she went before the judge, he ended up sentencing her to 10 to 20 years...a sentence she says she didn't deserve.  A sentence from which she would escape, with the help of her grandpa, and she would run and hide all the way to California where she began a whole new life, got married, had children...had everything you could ever want...until one day when her past caught up with her.

This is the second part of a two part series, so make sure you listen to part one before you listen to this, otherwise you will be lost. For this special Vacation Series Bonus Episode of Killafornia Dreaming we are headed north to Ontario, Canada. In the 1970s, a trio of friends began their own little criminal enterprise, targeting shipment containers, cargo, and delivery systems throughout Ottawa. Eventually their exploits landed them in prison, but each one of them managed to escape from prison, eventually winding up in California where they graduated to Bank Robbery, earning themselves the moniker, the Stopwatch Gang.

We're happy to feature this BONUS episode this week, where we had the chance to sit down with Ryan Nemeth, aka "Hot Young Briley," and chat about his new film project, HEEL, dramatizing the happenings and consequences of addiction and sexual assault with the professional wrestling business.

We had a great chat about his career in wrestling with NXT and Bar Wrestling, contracts in Pro Wrestling, the ending of Game of Thrones, and how his brother has never seen THE MATRIX!

Enjoy!  And off we go into Year 3!

In early 1972, President Richard Nixon was in full swing preparing for the 1972 election, hoping to win a second term. But as you know, Nixon would famously quit as he got broiled in some issue involving some wiretapping thing later on that year. But Watergate wasn’t Nixon’s only scandal. He also was involved what came to be known as the Milk Fund Scandal…he purportedly manipulated the cost of milk in order to compel their union to contribute to his re-election campaign, which they would, and Nixon would, in turn fix the milk prices back to what they had been so. The illegal obtained funds were supposedly stashed in a bank in California in some safe deposit boxes. And a crew of bank robbers based in Youngsville, Ohio were determined to get their hands on Nixon’s secret millions.
