1JoshI

It's been six months. A few things have happened in joshi to talk about. Promotions die, promotions are born, people retire, boing-boing girls debut, and most importantly, we finally have a junior champion to be proud of.

Trying again after SNAFU last night.

We'll be more positive this time. Let's discuss FLIK's homework match (Jaguar vs Panther Surena); get creepy about Kana, Mio, & Io; speculate about some of the great matches of the present that haven't happened yet and some of the great matches of the past that never happened.

Well, joshi's in bad shape. Now NEO is going out of business. Let's talk about what can be done to save the joshi puroresu business, will it get done, and also talk about some of the good work that is still going on despite the horrible shape of the business end of joshi puroresu. Also, let's talk smack about Nanae Takahashi :)

It's the return of 1JoshI, featuring my new home, Ayumi & Hiroyo & Misaki in America, Dave Prazak books young joshi better than the Japanese, the return of HIREN (where she chokes Nanae Takahashi), and the burning question: Is there anything to look forward to in the TEN or should we just wait for that Sakura Hirota comp?

Special Sunday night show by request from some would-be callers who can't do the usual time. I might alternate between weekdays and weekends to maximize the opportunity for you creeps to call in. We'll talk about our Top 20 lists (joshi or worldwide women, your choice), what we've been watching, and other sh.it.e.

This is the make-up show for the show I slept through because I'm sick. I'm sorry. We'll talk about Hokuto vs Kandori, Kandori vs Devil, All Things Apache, and "What We've Been Watching". I discovered some new YooToob channels and saw some early AJW workers I had never seen before.

This time will probably be more about older joshi than the current product. I'll lead off with my favorite unheralded match from Big Egg Universe that I've promised but never delivered on previous shows. We might also talk about the forgotten babes of Ladies' Legend Pro Wrestling or 2004 AJW, or maybe we'll talk Awesome Kong beating the snot out of Bubba the Hate Sponge or about all the 80s new wave and 90s alternative I listen to on teh satellite radio.

We'll give the creepy joshi radio talk another try. I have some panelists lined up. J.H. wants to talk about disillusionment and what in the hell happened to the joshifans board. I want to talk about unheralded matches from Big Egg Universe and El Cuarto de Enero. We will help Jamie Virtue figure out what joshi he should watch. Maybe we'll get other callers with exciting stories, interesting questions, or engaging comments.

This time, I'd like to discuss who the top women's wrestlers in the world in 2009 are. Later, we'll feel nostalgic and talk about our favorite matches that no one else ever seems to pimp. I've got one from Big Egg Universe that I think is awesome and it never gets talked about. What match is it? You'll have to listen to find out. You should call as well so we can all BUTCHER Japanese names together!

We'll speculate about the 2009 joshi awards, talk about who won in 2008 (as determined by the joshifans board), and look forward to the 1980s joshi set.
