–The work that went into his upcoming biography of the original Sheik, Ed Farhat.
–What it’s like now working for Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
–Brian’s new Arcadian Vanguard podcast Shut Up And Wrestle, and where he got the idea for the name of the show.
–The “rules” Brian created when he wrote “WWE Legends” and the hurdles he had to clear to get the project rolling.
–How the arrests of Hacksaw Jim Duggan and the Iron Sheik changed the game for Brian and his childhood friends.
