On Episode #60 of Dangerous Conversations with “Dangerous” Doug Gilbert & “Wildfire” Tommy Rich, the guys take you on a wild ride from Tennessee to Tokyo and everywhere in between!

Before diving into the stories, Doug and Tommy talk about their upcoming appearances, including Tommy’s Menifee Street Fight in Kentucky and upcoming stops in Jackson, Henderson, Jonesboro, St. Louis, and beyond. Wildfire’s back in shape at 240 pounds and ready for anything, no holds barred.
Then things shift overseas.
This week’s main topic? Japan.

Doug and Tommy break down:

- The culture shock of first arriving in Japan
- Life on the tour buses and tiny hotel rooms
- Learning how to order food (and how to say “restroom”) in Japanese
- The brutal physical style and the “young boy” training system
- Bruiser Brody & Stan Hansen clearing crowds like the Red Sea

The guys also talk about Brian Christopher in Japan, Memphis hardcore inspiring Onita to create FMW in Japan, and the differences between American and Japanese crowds. This episode is packed with travel stories, cultural differences, inside the business perspective, and laugh out loud moments that only Doug & Tommy can deliver each and every week on Dangerous Conversations!

Doug Gilbert and Tommy Rich are back for another episode of Dangerous Conversations and this week they discuss the topic of breaking into the wrestling business. It's a lot different now than it was "fifty and a half" years ago when Tommy broke into pro wrestling and the guys breakdown and discuss those differences with some fun "sidebars" along the way.

If you want the truth, the real truth from two men who lived it, this episode pulls no punches.

Plus: Gene Jackson says there's a "huge announcement" coming soon about a big "Dangerous Conversations" related project coming up that you DO NOT want to miss!
