(Like making mix tapes on a cassette recorder) Recorded over 6 months ago, this episode was initially intended to be recorded during Dann's trip to Adelaide. We did it over the phone instead. Then the recording was shite, so it was shelved. It's now fixed & sees the light of day. ENJOY!

Drawing Heat - Marcius Pitt: The Mighty Don't Kneel!
An episode 2 years in the making... we sit down with one of the most talented professional wrestlers Australia has ever produced, former 5 time Explosive Pro Wrestling champion, Marcius Pitt of TMDK. In this episode, Muffins, as his friends call him, (don't worry we get to the bottom of that one) delves into both his career and personal life in a refreshingly open and honest way. We talk about such things as how he used his real life frustrations with missed career opportunities as motivation for his recent heel turn and subsequent emotion filled promo, his issues with Gavin McGavin regarding the use of the German Suplex and his thoughts on how EPW PERTH can grow and evolve heading into the future. You'll also hear about some wacky Bucks Party shenanigans involving Damian Slater, Jonah Rock and Elliot Sexton, how Marcius is dealing with becoming a first time father and much more.

Drawing Heat - Mr Juicy Vol. 2: Electric Boogaloo
It’s been 18 months since Mr Juicy last appeared on the Drawing Heat Podcast but as promised he’s back for Mr Juicy Vol 2. Electric Boogaloo! The timing for The Juicy Ones return couldn’t have been any better as the last 18 months have been a very pivotal period of time in the life and career of our incomparable mate Gino. Not only has he won two of the most prestigious championships in Australian wrestling, he was also the catalyst in bringing New Japan Pro Wrestling to Australia, where the nations best pro wrestlers could make the most out of a once in a lifetime opportunity by trying out for NJPW and showing what they’re really made of. You’ll hear all about the championships and NJPW tryouts in greater detail plus Mr Juicy tells the story of how he met his hero, former Perth Glory captain and Australian soccer legend, Bobby Despotovski and much more including a tale of New Years Eve in Tokyo with "Jag" Hartley Jackson that’s so crazy the only way you could believe it actually happened is because it’s Juicy telling it. We do have to give a huge thanks to Mr Juicy though, as in all seriousness, he was very ill on the day and yet he still agreed to hang out and record this podcast with us so mad respect to him for that.

Drawing Heat - Jarrad Slate: You Think You Know Me
Most people, especially regular listeners of this podcast only know Jarrad Slate as the Road Warrior inspired, face painted brawler who runs wild in Explosive Pro Wrestling (EPW Perth) and entertains the fans with his unreserved vocal stylings. He’s a man that will punch you in the face and then proceed to tell you and everyone in the arena what just happened and how sucky it was for you but also how extremely enjoyable it was for him. Apart from that not too many people actually know the real Jarrad Slate and that’s where we come in. During our time with Jarrad Slate we found him to be gregarious and quick-witted with a sharp tongue and an irreverent sense of humour which meant that we got along famously. In between the jokes and uncontrollable laughter we did manage to find the time to talk about something that Jarrad Slate is very passionate about – professional wrestling. Did you know that Jarrad Slate is one of the co-founders of the Southern Hemisphere Wrestling Alliance (SHWA)? We talk about the events surrounding the formation of SHWA and the trials and tribulations one goes through in running a wrestling promotion. Jarrad also takes us through his time wrestling for All Action Wrestling (AAW), New Horizons Pro Wrestling (NHPW Perth) and of course EPW where we talk about his favourite opponents/matches and what wrestling really means to him. We don’t want to give too much away because nobody likes spoilers and quite frankly we want you to download this podcast but what we will say is that after listening to this you’re going to know the real Jarrad Slate.

Drawing Heat - Heritor's Nerdy Bits
you like tangent trains then HOP ON BOARD! Because our guest in this episode is a man who's one of the most eccentric people we've ever had on our podcast with a mind that works a mile a minute - "Australian Gothic" Heritor. First impressions of Heritor leave you thinking that he's a little different than most people (in a good way of course) but soon you see how knowledgeable he is about pro wrestling and how passionate he is about the pro wrestling business. His love of wrestling is clear and it all starts with New Horizons Pro Wrestling (NHPW) Perth Australia where he's one of the driving forces behind that promotions success. In this podcast Heritor waxes lyrical about such things as the evolution of NHPW and how his friend the legendary MANA created something in WA wrestling that had never been attempted before, the international workers that have appeared for NHPW in the past including Low Ki, Adam Cole, Colt Cabana, Steve Corino & Kevin Owens. Some of the stories Heritor shares are out there to say the least especially the story about Meat & Donnamatrix. Check us out on Facebook HERE!
