B & S About Movies podcast special episode 19: Kurt Brown defends Skidoo

Kurt Brown, also known by some as Vandal Drummond, introduced me to so much. I look at him as the older brother I don’t have and thank him for driving me all over Hollywood to show me some amazing places. He’s also the executive producer and researcher of Out In the Ring, a documentary you can get from Vinegar Syndrome.

In this episode, we go deep into Skidoo but go off on several tangents, which include Johnny Legend, pre-1970s wrestling all over the world, including Titantes en el Ring, Dr. Jerry Graham and much more. This is one of my favorite episodes because it captures a true conversation between us, two friends who haven’t spoken by voice in years.
