Time Tunnel Podcast This Week: Personalities, Territories, Towns and Buildings:
This week in Episode 26, we go to one of our most requested territories to cover, the Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling area promoted by Jim Crockett Promotions. I am joined by longtime fan and author of Front Row Section D, John Hitchcock. As a longtime fan, who started watching Mid-Atlantic in the late 1960s and a regular attendee at the Greensboro Coliseum, John has some amazing stories to share about late 1975 in Mid-Atlantic.

What I’m Reading Now
Here’s a re-cap of my wrestling reading up to the date of this post and I’ll update this as I proceed through each piece of material I’m reading. I haven’t had much a chance to read very much (or write either) right now as it is strategic planning season for my clients and I am on the road much of October and November. However, you can find both Kurt Neilsen and Brian R Solomon in our podcast archives discussing the respective books and Libnan’s book, which is new on my list this week, as I just got started on it and Libnan is coming soon as a guest on the podcast show.
