For Throwback Thursday, and just in time for its Anniversario, here is the piece I did on my love and memories for the best wrestling promotion of the 21st century, Chikara Pro! You like good quality wrestling, elaborate storytelling, color/diverse/interesting characters, and a “family friendly” sense of fun and positive vibes? Then Chikara was for you! Chikara was the most entertaining wrestling I saw, especially circa 2012-2016, and by all rights, they should still exist today. But I will always remember them, and always honor them, and so should you! Cheers! https://retrorevelations.blogspot.com/2022/05/wrestling-is-art-remembering-chikara-pro.html

Bonus Episode: From the Reviews!
It's the second installment of our scheme to wheedle 5 star reviews from you guys!  Listeners Jess Kelley, @ChiMothBoy and @AwfullyWaffly told the world we're the prettiest princess in the land, and instructed us to watch 3 different matches, and honestly we had a fricken ball. 
First up was the team of Naito and Takahashi vs the Golden Lovers, and we fell in LOVE with the cat man.  We did mess up the NAME of the cat man, but we got there in the end.  Also? Golden Lovers good at wrestling. You heard it here first! 
Up next was Eddie Kingston vs Mike Quackenbush in a CHIKARA match from 2011, and we spent the whole time lusting over Eddie, and peeping at all our favs around the ring.  Ten stars, loved the experience.
Lastly, we had our minds blown apart by a British indie match of Pac vs Cara Noir.  The aesthetics! The camera work! The dramatiques!  We were ENRAPTURED, and then CRUELLY were sent to hell by the knowledge that Riptide Wrestling no longer exists, and the new love of our life Cara Noir is injured.  Donate to his GoFundMe here, because we MUST have this man back on our screens!

Mike Quackenbush, the professional wrestler & teacher, visits The Work of Wrestling podcast for the first time to discuss the art with host Tim Kail.
Topics include:
Mike's seminar 155 Years Of Professional Wrestling History (Click Here to access Mike's seminar page and purchase one of his videos).
Navigating the volume of content in modern pro-wrestling and the value of concision.
The inspiration behind Mike's promotion Chikara (Click Here to subscribe to the Chikaratopia Steaming service).
"Exposing the business" and getting the balance right between preserving an audience's experience whilst deepening people's appreciation of the art.
The origin of pro-wrestling's "adversarial" relationship with the audience and the affect "learning how the hot dog is made" has on the pro-wrestling fan.
Mike's 25th Anniversary playlist and his favorite match with Colt Cabana (Click Here to enjoy this playlist).
Mike's YouTube project 'Till We Make It (Click Here to enjoy this channel).
How does Mike feel about non-practitioners of his craft (like Tim) critiquing his craft?  
When & how did Mike come to the understanding that pro-wrestling is an art after years of running Chikara and The Wrestle Factory (Click Here to visit The Wrestle Factory).
What really differentiates Professional Wrestling from Sports Entertainment?
Click Here to watch Claudio Castagnoli vs Mike Quackenbush (TPI 2006 - Full Match).
Approaching match construction from the point of view of "What do we want them to feel?" rather than "What moves can we do?"
Comedy as the "Jazz" of pro-wrestling, and the value of variety in art.
Click Here to watch PBS's Movers & Makers profile of Chikara Pro.
How Mike gradually became the character of Mike Quackenbush over the course of 27 years.
How the lack of an "emotional core" affects the nature of a wrestling match.
The rise of "Cinematic Wrestling" now that the time is right.
Click Here to watch Johnny Saint vs Jim Breaks 1979.
Mike's project to find the first time Pro-Wrestling was "its own thing" and not featured as an "act" on another form of entertainment.
The need to preserve professional wrestling history and why thinking of it as an art serves that purpose.
You can follow Mike on Twitter @MikeQuackenbush and Instagram @mq_thousandholds. You can buy his book 7 Keys To Becoming A Better Performer by Clicking Here and Toolbox: Building Better Pro-Wrestling by Clicking Here.
You can follow Tim on Twitter and Facebook @WorkOfWrestling.
Thank you so much for listening! Share this episode far and wide with all your pro-wrestling friends, dear listener. I believe it is an important contribution to this art we all love.
Be well and may The Moment of Pop be with you.
