    WARNING: This episode is about pro wrestling. If that's not your thing, my feelings won't be hurt if you don't listen to it. This podcast follows me on a special day where I attended the opening day of the G1 Climax in Dallas, Texas. To be honest,  I hate the first 15 minutes where I'm on my own, but I really didn't want to record a new intro to explain the changes. Once our recap of the show starts, it gets really good.
