EPISODE #105 - LIVE FROM THE FEST 17

It's FEST-ja vu all over again! It's that new hotness, it's Episode 105 Live! This is a very special episode (the rare occasion when you get more than one episode of The Whole Ref'n Show in one week). It's The Whole Ref'n Show LIVE from FEST 17! LIVE, on-stage at the magnificent and stoic Hippodrome Theatre in beautiful downtown Gainesville, Florida on Saturday, 28 October 2018 in the middle of the wild and crazy FEST, the world's biggest punk rock music festival! Our heroes Daryn and Perry brought together an amazing, esteemed, celebrated, enthusiastic, talented, beautiful and bad-ass panel to talk independent pro-wrestling, FEST Wrestling, the lives and times of indy wrestlers, the business of professional wrestling, and the FEST atmosphere that surrounded us! On the panel were the voices of FEST Wrestling, Rich Bocchini and Maxx Gregg, the (don't call him) manager of the Ugly Ducklings, Coach Mikey, the Child of the 8th Day Saieve al Sabah, Ronnie Rios and Kayden Greene of The Coda, F1rst Wrestling's Arik Cannon and the burgermeister himself, King FEST, Tony Weinbender! It's a great conversation between 10 passionate wrestling-minded individuals, with myriad perspectives on the business we all know and love. This is an intimate portrait of a lot of wrestling diehards, #dearlisteners. Get to know the minds of these individuals who wear other hats in their shoot lives, who wear promoter's hats, manager's hats and others. Listen to the tales of the relatively green and new to the savvy veterans, from indy darlings to those who have graced WWE's PPVs. This is an informative, very funny, extremely candid and totally warm look inside the business of pro-wrestling, behind the curtain of indy-wrestling and deep inside the minds of a lot of folks that take this business very seriously, take the camaraderie to heart, and take the experiences along with them all the days of their lives. If you couldn't be there in Hogtown (and you should have been!) you can hear it here now! It's the ONLY wrestling podcast that calls it right down the middle, it was LIVE, it was full of a bunch of your favorite folks, and it was the wrestling panel that was... it was The Whole Ref'n Show LIVE from FEST 17!!
