Mike Quackenbush returns to talk his career and Chikara! We talk about trying to get to Japan, his future with ROH and working Bryan Danielson, thoughts on the 2007 King of Trios, and the upcoming Chikara show in Connecticut. Plus, Hungry Hungry Hobo, Freddie Blassie Junior, minis randomly showing up at shows, future clowns, and AAA stars hopefully coming soon to Chikara (no, not Baby Marvin). A jam-packed half hour of power!
