The upcoming presentation is a two-man power trip on wrestling podcast production. The President. I'm All right.

Let's kick off this year in style.

This is New Generation Declassified.

And you're listening to an all new new, new generation declassified here exclusively on the two-man power trip of wrestling podcasting Empire.

If you didn't know by now, my name is Chad.

And every single week, we go back in time.

We look at the finer days of pro wrestling, and this one is a real finer day, without a doubt.

But before we get into the topic at hand, I want to introduce returning to the new generation airwaves for the first time and a long time

gone, but certainly not forgotten from the, I don't even wait, the FRM podcast world, the great

Mr. Mike Freeland coming back to Gracus with his presence once again.

Wow, I don't know what to say after that introduction. My gosh. Thanks, everybody. We're, we're done tonight. Oh my gosh. Uh, yeah, it's great to be back. It's, uh, it's been a while since you and I got to, uh, to sit down and talk wrestling. And this is definitely a topic that, I can't wait to sink my teeth into but it's great to be here great to be here with your listeners and uh can't wait to get into it very nice yes

I'm calling this and then there was raw because that's the way it kind of popped up now ironically

uh Scott Smith who's a great listener of the New Generation Declassified

World, basically read my mind as I was kind of shooting around topics and what I wanted

to talk about, throughout a suggestion Tuesday morning for us.

I know he's on another continent. So for us, it was Tuesday morning for us. I know he's on the other and another continent. So for us,

it was Tuesday morning, suggesting covering the first episode of Raw. I literally had this on

the plate. It was possibly going to be next week's episode to really tie in with the anniversary,

but it has jumped the line. So you will have to put those Ahmed Johnson notes on hold, Mike, as I had originally

had planned to possibly talk about Ahmed Johnson.

But we're going to talk about the first episode of Monday Night Raw.

Obviously, the show that changed the way wrestling television, especially on Monday nights, was viewed as a little show called primetime wrestling, just went away one week.
