Episode 270: The King Of Trios 2015 Spectacular

Trios

This week, Matt’s on Vacation and Chris is in Pennsylvania for Chikara’s annual King of Trios tournament – so if you’re one of our listeners who’s not so into the episodes about wrestling, maybe you want to skip this one. For the rest of you, we’ve got an extra-sized two-hour episode talking about the entire event with special guests Kieran Shiach, Helena Hart, David Burszan, Gavin Jasper and Aidan Sullivan, with a rundown of every match, plenty of tangents, and a discussion of why Missile Assault Man blowing up a bus full of children in Zimbabwe is not the least family-friendly thing in Chikara continuity this weekend.

Plus, it’s the exciting debut of our hottest new segment, Win A Date With Gavin!

The Rundown:

  • This episode was guest-edited by Kieran Shiach, who also had Chris on his podcast, Journey Into Misery, where he explained Darkseid in the very same hotel room where this was recorded.
  • Follow Kieran, Helena, David, Gavin and Aidan on Twitter!
