Ivan had a legitimately great career, and even though the interivew is almost two hours, we only scratch the surface.

August 27, 201411 yr comment_5621627 Great interview and fits perfect into the context of the show. Im surprised Parv didn't go apeshit at the mention of Dibiase. Way to to stay professional

August 28, 201411 yr comment_5621657 I gotta say Ivan does a great Dick the Bruiser.His Jim Barnett is nothing to sneeze at, either.
August 30, 201411 yr comment_5621947 And again, if you dug the show, throw some bucks at the kick starter for the flick. If you plan on torrenting it if comes out, then do the right thing and toss in for it. And if you haven't listened to this show, get on it, it's great shit.
October 14, 201410 yr comment_5633194 Wanted to follow up on this - first, fantastic interview, great questions, good pacing and you guys were all pros. The Kickstarter was funded so the project is a go.
October 14, 201410 yr comment_5633199 Thanks Brad.Ivan was an easy guy to interview. The Ivan doc has been getting worked on. The cover looks amazing. They just finished up interviewing Bruno for the doc. We have another interview set up for next week. I don't want to disclose who it is with in case it falls through. Just everyone keep on the look out for it. We feel it will be another fun one.
October 14, 201410 yr comment_5633204 I was pleasantly surprised to hear that the WWE has been talking to him about the Hall of Fame - or at least he really alluded to that. The question about Bruno finally accepting and paving the way was a really apt one. I think it would be a fantastic honor to let him in and you could tell how much it would mean to him.
October 14, 201410 yr comment_5633207 It would mean a lot to him. In a funny moment before the show we weren't going to ask him about the WWE HOF feeling he gets the question a lot. Well he brought it up immediately and we then asked follow up questions.
