This week STICK TO WRESTLING is joined by the late, great, Dan Farren! Dan grew up in San Bernadino, CA and went to the matches there every Sunday night in the 70’s, so you know he has some stories. We discuss:

–Dan’s encounters Dory Funk, Roddy Piper, Greg Valentine, Edouard Carpentier, John Tolos, and more.

–The death of the Los Angeles based Mike LeBell promotion.

–The story of a very persistent autograph hound.

–An interesting Mil Mascaras vs Ivan Koloff match.

–What it was like visiting the Olympic Auditorium.

–The greatness of the Black Gordman and Goliath tag team.

–Attending a AAA show in Los Angeles when the promotion was red hot.

Plus Dan talks about seeing David Letterman, Richard Pryor, Rodney Dangerfield, and more at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, so what are you waiting for? Download and listen to this wicked good bad boy!
