No, this is not a real Flagship episode. Yes, it's a ten minute commercial for the paywall. But if you are disappointed and hankering for your weekly Flagship fix, please take a listen to hear all about all of the bonus audio you could be getting if you become a Flagship Patreon subscriber.

This week alone, we produce FIVE episodes of Flagship Plus, our supplemental Flagship companion show, that covers all of the topics that don't make the cut for the weekly free Flagship. That's more hours of audio than you would have gotten on a full edition of The Flagship this week, plus a wide range of additional audio and written content including two new episodes of Tour Of The Territories, two new Watch Along matches, the Thursday Dynamite Review, a 2+ hour recap and analysis of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter Awards, and more. There is over 10 new hours of audio behind the paywall this week alone, and a $10 sub unlocks access to thousands of more hours and everything we have ever produced.

Subscribe here: www.flagshippatreon.com, and we'll see you next week.
