This week is a very personal show to Joe and Mick as we pay tribute to the life of the recently passed but dearly talented jack of all trades, the one and only Al DeRusha! Joe tells stories of their meaningful friendship and the many ways that Al was more than a mentor, Mick has stories of wrestling time limits and how that would crack up ringsiders, and a ton more.
