It's Monday. You know what that means. Sort of. As a very special taster, we're offering up the first part of our new Patreon series, Destination Cancellation, for free this week so non-patrons can sample it and have it serve as a bridge to next week's return of the regular free show. (This first episode of Destination Cancellation dropped for Patrons this past Friday.) After an intro previewing the Patreon show and next week's regular show, you get the entire first part of what will be a seven week series covering the disaster that was TNA Wrestling from the July 2014 Spike TV cancellation through the end of the Destination America run in December 2015. If you like this episode and want to hear the other six parts that are dropping in the coming weeks, subscribe to our Patreon at the $5.00/month tier or higher, with annual subscriptions running $50.40 and thus saving you 16% off the monthly price. Enjoy!
