Ep. #480: October 16-22, 2007 with Dr. Keith Lipinski

Between The Sheets

Kris and David are joined by Dr. Keith Lipinski (@KeithLipinski) to discuss the week that was October 16-22, 2007, an episode requested on our Patreon page by "Terry Taylor,” who dropped $25 to pick this week. Topics of discussion include:

• An in-depth look at the failed fan convention that became known as the "Cow Palace Disaster,” featuring some insane stories from both the newsletters and Dr. Keith himself, as he was part of the festivities. This is a MUST-LISTEN segment!!!
• A totally crazy episode of TNA Impact featuring Kurt Angle trying to bribe Kevin Nash with PORN among other insanity.
• Zach Gowen in All Japan.
• Shiro Koshinaka returning to Mexico as Samurai Shiro after a 20-plus year absence.
• A possible reality show featuring Julie Hart and her kids…but not Bret.
• Brock Lesnar officially signs with the UFC.
• Dr. Phil Astin's bankruptcy and how that affects the continued Chris Benoit fallout around WWE.
• ECW and SmackDown basically merging in onscreen.
• The awfulness of Mr. Kennedy.
• Candice Michelle suffering one of the most memorable live TV injuries in wrestling history.

That's just the tip of the iceberg of this amazing show!!!
