Sam gets the opportunity to chat with Pat Laprade during Shimmer weekend in Berwyn, IL. Pat is the co-author of "Mad Dogs, Midgets & Screw Jobs: The Untold Story of How Montreal Shaped the World of Wrestling", "Mad Dog: The Maurice Vachon Story", "Sisterhood of the Squared Circle: The History and Rise of Women's Wrestling", & the upcoming Andre the Giant biography. He also served as field producer on the HBO Andre the Giant documentary as well as being interviewed on-screen. We're very lucky and grateful to have had him as our first guest on the podcast. Check out thoughts on Andre in Japan, Andre as a heel, women's wrestling, and even discover what book Sam read on his honeymoon... All this and more!
