Summary

Dr. Luther aka Lenny St. Clair returns to TIJ for more laughs and great wrestling stories! He's talking Stampede Wrestling, the Hart Family wrestling camp, and FMW and the hardcore style of Japan. You'll hear what "Silence Of The Lambs" and Leonardo DiCaprio had to do with his gimmick, why he once walked 8 miles to a KFC, and how he & Y2J ended up tag teaming one night only as the Lovely Lads! Plus, Lenny's got an amaze-ball story about the night he spent picking up chicks with actor Christopher Lloyd (aka Doc Brown from the "Back To The Future" movies).
