Wrestling Art with Chris Things

Episode 87 is here pals! We have another of those solo, rambling chit-chat editions of the show for you. I'm rambling through my thoughts on a wonderful recent Brisbane Illustration Fair weekend, meeting a bunch of wonderful folks & catching up with some of my favourite Brissy Art pals (like the super talented Gabrielle Vines & Forge Forward's Amy). I chat the ridiculous weekend that I have set up for myself next week with the ridiculous/wonderful combo of Lucha Fantastica Brisbane's Day of the Dead Fiesta, The Great Artist Market at Felons Barrel Hall AND a Wrestling Club 'GRAPP-TOBERFEST' at my favourite bar in the whole wide-world, The Scratch! We then get into an A.I. arty rant for the ages discussing the importance of human creativity, hand generated art & loveable imperfections.Enjoy!!ChrisThings.com.au is the place for my original art, prints, calendars & much more!Follow us on Instagram: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexFollow us on Twitter: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SocialSuplex/Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/QUaJfaCVisit our website for news, columns, and podcasts: https://socialsuplex.com/Join the Social Suplex community Facebook Group: The Wrestling (Squared) CircleWrestling-Art with Chris Things is the Pro-Wrestling Art niche Podcast of the Social Suplex Podcast Network.

Episode 86 is here pals! It's a "Match of the Week" 'Edition of the show w/ 'Best Mate David', chattin' three totally splendid bouts & just what it was that made them so wonderful. Those being Genichiro Tenryu vs KENTA (from 2005 Pro Wrestling NOAH), Mike Awesome vs Masato Tanaka (from ECW Heatwave '98) and the wonderfully sadomasochistic bloodbath that was KENOH vs Minoru Suzuki (from 2024 Pro Wrestling NOAH). We actually got to enjoy those first two together at a recent 'Wrestling Club' with Chris Things at The Scratch, so I felt there couldn't be anyone more perfect to chop it up with about these classics than my dearest long-time pal from across the pond. We talk all about these matches, my illustrations of said matches & a heck of a lot of nonsense - not limited to the 1977 B-Grade Action classic that was Rolling Thunder!In my 'World of Chris-Things' intro monologue I ramble about my recent Mexican group art show participation, some upcoming events AND a Wrestling Artist SPOTLIGHT on a recent discovery of mine in fabulous wrestling artist who created some of our favourite visuals of early 90s WWF; Joe Jusko!Enjoy!!Check out the Chris Things MOTW illustrations in question here: MOTW 96: Genichiro Tenryu vs KENTAMOTW 97: Mike Awesome vs Masato TanakaMOTW 98: KENOH vs Minoru SuzukiChrisThings.com.au is the place for original art, prints, calendars & much more!Follow us on Instagram: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexFollow us on Twitter: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SocialSuplex/Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/QUaJfaCVisit our website for news, columns, and podcasts: https://socialsuplex.com/Join the Social Suplex community Facebook Group: The Wrestling (Squared) CircleWrestling-Art with Chris Things is the Pro-Wrestling Art niche Podcast of the Social Suplex Podcast Network.

Episode 69 is here pals! Yes, this past Sunday we had our latest "WRESTLING CLUB" event at the ever-lovely Scratch Bar & you know what that means! It's another "Wrestling Club w/ Chris Things" special edition of the podcast where I do my best to include YOU, the listener in the festivities! I run through the play list, we get some in-person audio from the night in question (including past special guest-pals of the show; 'Perfect-Attendance Joe, Bradley & the ever-controversial Faz!) & maybe even a little surprise easter-egg at the end for ya! In my intro monologue, I chat my latest in-person arty events (including THIS FRIDAY's CMLL/Mexico-is-theShit 'Demasiada Lucha' Art Exhibition in Mexico City that I am beyond honoured to be a part of!) as well as a little discussion on the gut-punch that was the recent passing of one of my long-time favourites, Sabu. And of course, a little accompanying rant on the bad-faith scumbags who are trying to get cred by bad-mouthing the total sweetheart that is Joey Janela. Once again, thank you Joey & thank you Brett for giving Sabu that last glorious moment & giving Sabu his well-deserved flowers.Enjoy!!ChrisThings.com.au is the place for my latest book, original art, prints, calendars & much more!Follow us on Instagram: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexFollow us on Twitter: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SocialSuplex/Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/QUaJfaCVisit our website for news, columns, and podcasts: https://socialsuplex.com/Join the Social Suplex community Facebook Group: The Wrestling (Squared) CircleWrestling-Art with Chris Things is the Pro-Wrestling Art niche Podcast of the Social Suplex Podcast Network.

Episode 68 is here amigos! Our 'Wrestling Art Curator' special is BACK! And for a very special one indeed. This is my artist-interview series focusing on the art practices of rad wrestling-artists from all around the world! And this week I'm SO darned pleased to be interviewing a friend of mine all the way from Mexico - an amazing Lucha Libre artist & also an amazing person; Portaveritas! In this positively delightful chat, we talk all things lucha & art & more than anything, passion. From Portaveritas' introduction to art, to his later life introduction to lucha, inspirations, the role of illustrators in the world of Lucha Libre, cool accomplishments, feelings on pride & ego as an artist, asking for help from others, a few artist tips, the fusion of Lucha & Comics & his exciting new comic project; 'MORTAL'! We even get some sneak-announcements on some super exciting developments involving some Chris Things in Mexico!...I had so much fun having this chat. We could have never stopped! Thank you so much!!Enjoy!!Be sure to be following Portaveritas on his way-cool Instagram page!Check out ChrisThings.com.au for my own original art, prints, calendars, books & much more!Follow us on Instagram: @ChrisThings, @Portaveritas, @SocialSuplexFollow us on Twitter: @ChrisThings, @Portaveritas, @SocialSuplexFacebook: Portaveritas, SocialSuplexJoin our Discord: https://discord.gg/QUaJfaCVisit the Social Suplex website for news, columns, and podcasts: https://socialsuplex.com/Join the Social Suplex community Facebook Group: The Wrestling (Squared) CircleWrestling-Art with Chris Things is the Pro-Wrestling Art niche Podcast of the Social Suplex Podcast Network.
