Just to drop this here, I've been a lurker of the board for a while and signed up lately, and wanted to drop our podcast in for those who haven't heard us elsewhere. The show is a rather random variety of topics we pick each week, from Monday Night War timeline shows (with notes from the Observer Newsletters of the time), to our Trial series, to fantasy booking and current events discussion, and a lot of interactive discussions.

In addition, we have a Facebook page you can join us on and leave feedback in future if you so wish (link in my sig), and all the archives with our previous Monday Night War Timeline shows, our Trial series were we debate controversial figures in wrestling on specific charges in aim of a guilty verdict, and our random weekly topics, can be found at http://www.squaredcirclegazette.com

Happy to be here!
