We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian.

Before we dive into the episode, have you seen our badass logo? Awesome designer Trais Colton Barhaug rocked that for us and you should go support him now! T-shirts, pins, and stickers are on their way.
Thanks to Justin’s long time friend, Kwalified, a diehard wrestling fan and dope emcee hailing from Hawaii, for our great intro song.
Leon White – aka Vader – was one of the greatest big men in pro wrestling history. Sadly, his acting career wasn’t quite as successful. But watching the nonsensical 1995 live action adaptation of one of Japan’s longest running and most popular manga series gave us the opportunity to indulge in some truly stellar wrestling.
Enjoy our discussion of Fist of the North Star and 3 great matches from Big Van Vader in three different promotions with three distinctly different styles.
Doug is back on Twitter and his other podcasts never left, Cinema Smorgasbord and No-Budget Nightmares
