How did you first discover Live Audio Wrestling? For me, the radio show on The Fan 590 was mentioned in the Toronto Sun's Saturday wrestling column in 1999.

I discovered the LAW 3 years ago during my search to find a new wrestling program to replace Between The Ropes (which was fading at the time). I listened to a bunch of different podcasts & radio shows, but the LAW hooked me with their interactive approach to their show. The Facebook wall discussions and callers like Maryse-Guy & John of Ark added a lot of value to the show, IMO.
But what really sold me on their programming was the Review-A-Wai show (back when it used to be bundled with the LAW podcast). I don't know if somebody had the idea to review old wrestling shows before John & Wai...But I haven't heard anybody do it quite as well as them since.

I listened to Between the Ropes and Ministry of Slam and needed a change. Being based in Canada as well as having the show air right after the PPV is a great plus!

I found it via iTunes in January 2010 and have caught pretty much every LAW and Review-A-Wai since. Very fun and insightful product for sure.

My mate introduced me to the podcast, roughly in the Summer of 2009, so not too long before Review-a-Wai started

Initially discovered the LAW in the summer of 2002. I was having terrible bouts of insomnia, and turned on the radio one day and found it. Listened religiously for about a year, then fell out of it. Tuned in again roughly once or twice a year since then, until June 2010, when I started following the LAW and Review-a-Wai. Thankfully, i was here for the debut of Review-a-Raw and Review-an-Impact

I had read reports online for years and purchased a couple of the English language FMW DVD's (your welcome Mouth), so I finally checked out the show when I got Sirius, and have been listening since.

My mate introduced me to the podcast, roughly in the Summer of 2009, so not too long before Review-a-Wai started And then you introduced it to me Over on another board, there was a discussion on wrestling podcasts. I had never downloaded a podcast onto my iPod before but Jay said the Review-a-Wai guys were worth checking out. Downloaded an episode, loved it, and downloaded every one since then I only actually listen to two podcast feeds; the Review-a-wai onces (with the LAW episodes following each PPV) and the Rooster Teeth podcast.

I don't remember the exact time I started listening... I know it was prior to the fall of 1999 when they expanded to Saturdays for a time. Jeez, a long time ago.
I believe the first time I called in was 2002 King of the Ring after the Kurt Angle/Hogan match.

I used to call a service called "Spectel" in the late 90's to get my wrestling news, that eventually lead me to a radio show called The Bone (or something like that) that was always promoted by the guy that did the recaps and news. It sucked to high hell and it was total shit. Disappointed, I went searching to see if I can find any other shows, hoping that wasn't THE ONLY radio show. I don't remember how I came across it, but it was on "Mojo Radio" on AM640 when it was Dan and Jeff Merrick.

I heard about it on The Fan 590, then I think it was on MOJO radio? Or maybe the Fan turned into that. Either way, I found the podcasts early 2010, haven't missed one since. The one thing that makes a Monday morning awesome.
