Join me as I speak very honestly with Justin, learn things that I never knew about his beginnings and hardships and strengthen a bond that has been in place for 27 years and counting.

10 podcast episodes, 20 years of The New Breed and almost 30 years of friendship. It's all led to this, the man who I started my entire wrestling journey with and have shared my entire adult life with, my best friend, Phil Bedwell. A mammoth 2 and a half hours in which we literally only barely covered a fraction of our time together and career but still talked about the genesis of our start in wrestling, our rise to the top of the UK scene in the FWA, our blood feud in EWW which transcended wrestling feuds and how we have been almost symbiotic with one another since school.
This is the most personal and deepest dive podcast I have done yet and I opened up in this conversation in ways I never imagined.
What a way to end the season.

Bow down as the King is here. For 20 years we've wrestled together, had PPV parties together, toured London clubs and been in the trenches of the resurgence of British Wrestling from day zero. We have a great chat about his start and path through the business, talk about his TNA opportunity and relive a ton of old memories.
