Summary
From the earliest days as a wrestling fan growing up in the 1980s Chad's fandom revolved around WWF's Coliseum Video. This podcast is a love letter to the old school VHS tapes released by the WWF and their official tape distributor Coliseum Video by reliving and retelling many of the stories that go along with these iconic video cassettes. In this first episode, The Chadster goes all the way back to Parkway Video in Brooklyn, NY and his first exposure to the monthly WWF tapes and how these rentals hooked him from the start.
Once a month, we will take a break from New Generation Declassified to dive into the Coliseum and as we go on this journey together, we will experience how lucky we were to grow up in the video rental era.
