The voice of Capital City Wrestling, Bill Yard, joins us this week for the first time (wait... are we sure he hasn't been here before?) to discuss the 1979 roller disco comedy Skatetown, U.S.A. They discuss the drug pizza, the multitude of cameos and musical performances, Flip Wilson and Billy Barty playing a couple, the skate dancing choreography while using a skateboard (!), Patrick Swayze's magnificent aura and much, MUCH more.
Next week: Slaaaaaaaaaaaater.
