Summary

First time guest, Robert McCauley (a contributor to the EASTERN LARIAT podcast) joins the Long & Winding Royal Road with WH Park to talk about a World Tag Team Title match between champions, Burning (Kenta Kobashi & Jun Akiyama) and challengers, NO FEAR (Takao Omori & Yoshihiro Takayama) from October 30, 1999 at Budokan Hall.

Through the course of the episode, they fill you in on the interesting career of Takao Omori and the benefits of under-20-minute matches.
