Place to Be Nation Holiday Weekend Update

Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend here in the states…and a great generic two day weekend everywhere else. Here are some written pieces and podcasts we thought you may enjoy!


If you enjoy wrestling podcasts and are not listening to Kris Zellner’s Exile to Badstreet show you are doing it all wrong…Kris has done shows on the Fall of UWF and JCP, the vibrant independent scene of the 2000s, the lives and careers of Dusty Rhodes and Buddy Landell and much, much more. His shows always include great panels, including Court Bauer, Wes Hatch. David Bixenspan and others. Absolute must listens! Exile on Badstreet
