This is a special episode of joshi'ing around for me, as I had the honour to welcome one of my favourite podcast co-hosts onto the show, it is the lovely lea from Tunnel Talk! Lea was very impressed by Bozilla at AEW's Forbidden Door and wanted to see more of her, so we checked out her amazing match with AZM on the STARDOM Nighter at Korakuen on 7/24/2025.
The match is free on YouTube if you wish to check it out first, starts around 1:57:00 into the video

This is a rather extraordinary episode, as I was originally invited as a guest on doc's podcast "The P[w]rescription", but we then decided that it would just make for a great standalone episode for Joshi'ing around as well! We talk about many things from each of our individual fandoms of joshi, to STARDOM and why they are doing so well right now, to some analysis of the recently finished 5 Star Grand Prix.

In the eleventh episode Chris Whitehead came up with a fun concept for a special episode, when joshi wrestlers are taken out of their usual comfort zone in two examples that we have various personal experiences with.
First we discuss episode 3x13 of Lucha Underground when Kairi Hojo, Mayu Iwatani and Io Shirai went up against Pentagon Dark and then we go on to talk about our experiences at Sukeban shows, before we talk about Sareee's great current run in more detail.

It's the great tenth anniversary special of the pod and to celebrate I didn't have a special guest, I WAS the guest as Velkej lead me through 3 important matches from his fandom in a fun little reversal episode. The matches are:
In the process we talk a lot about the history of STARDOM, every wrestler involved, the many hardships of joshi wrestling and much, much more.

In episode 9 I have my good friend Eric aka snazzy from the UK with me who was able to jump in last minute which I am very grateful for. We met to talk about TWO Jaguar Yokota vs Lioness Asuka matches, the first one is their legendary bout from AJW Summer Night Festival on 8/22/1985 and as a bonus we also watched a second one from the Jd' promotion 13 years later on 1/11/1998. From there we branched out into a multitude of topics like their influence on modern wrestlers, storytelling in wrestling, match length and MJF.

In this special episode Chris and I are talking about Syuri vs Sareee.
"Which one", I hear you ask? Well, why not both! In a special new format we met before STARDOM's "The Conversion" and recorded our thoughts on the first match and the entire build and history between Syuri and Sareee and previewed the second one with all our predictions of what we think might happen. Then we met 7 days later and reviewed our predictions, how right or wrong we were and extensively talk about the second match itself.

In episode 6 I am joined by author and writer Mike Meginnis to talk about a legendary match from 2001, a match that arguably made the career of Meiko Satomura who retired very recently, on the day 24 years later. We also talk different goals in wrestling fandom and our damaged society.

It is a special episode 4 for the Joshi'ing around podcast, as my lovely guest Trish from the Trish & Sarah Wrestling Podcast and I talk about not just a single match, but the entire All Star Grand Queendom show from 4/27/2025 in Yokohama Arena which turned out to be a monumental achievement for the STARDOM promotion, the end of an era in many ways and a new beginning. We also ventured off our path in some ways and briefly looked at the current goings on in NOAH and NJPW. it was a great conversation as always.
