Our good friend and director Michael Fahey took some time during his drive from Ohio to Florida to chat with us once again this week! We previously spoke to Michael about a year and a half ago on the eve of the premier of his documentary Westside Vs The World. Needless to say since then there has been some developments that delayed this project, but thankfully, it looks like those problems are in the past and things are coming together. We spend some time just talking powerlifting and of course get into the debate of raw vs equipped, I dont think we solved anything, but we tried. Finally, we discuss some rumors that surrounded the project, some of his future plans, and what people can expect when the movie releases May 7th.
