0:00.0	You know, the recent passing of my co-host and my friend Kev Castle, I vowed that his voice
0:07.1	would never fade. And where appropriate, we would definitely celebrate and bring up conversations
0:14.9	if it's pertinent, especially to current wrestling news. This episode is a little extra treat. puts a smile on my face
0:23.6	that later on you get to actually hear a clip of a conversation that Kevin and I had in February of
0:30.2	24. It was a prediction that we made about a pretty major news story. And this story actually broke over the last 12 hours. And it was

1:28.5	has passed away at 77 years old. Now, Rick Derringer, as far as wrestling goes, will always be
1:36.1	synonymous with Hulk Hogan's Real American theme and one of my top five favorite wrestling
1:43.1	themes of all- time demolition.
1:45.7	If anybody out there is an avid listener to my history episodes earlier this year,
1:50.8	we played a clip from 1985, Dick Clark's American Bandstand.
1:56.8	Who remembers that clip?
