This week Doug welcomes another great friend of his to the show, Dr. Tom Prichard! The guys have fun reflecting on their great times as neighbors in the Continental territory where Doug learned from guys like Tom, Jerry Stubbs, "Nightmare" Danny Davis, and others. Tom tells about working with Brian Christopher in the USWA early in Brian's career and shares a fun story from the Mid-South Coliseum where Brian's car was on the line and Brian's girlfriend learned to keep the window's rolled up! Plus, way too many great stories to mention here, check out the interview and let us know what you think over on Facebook at facebook.com/dougilbertpodcast
