Mildly entertaining, somewhat obscure guests, relatively interesting topics,

semi-professional production quality, reasonably well-informed commentary, a great value for the money,

hundreds of fans all around the world. It's the starting strength gyms podcast with your host, Ray Gillingwater.

Man, things are good here, Ray. I'm telling you, we got five people scheduled tomorrow
