One of of Bob Smith's (former PWI managing editor) favorite podcasts he's produced to date features the return of photographer/promoter/mat expert Howard Baum, who has done everything there is to do in pro wrestling. However, some have dubbed Baum a bit "cranky" or "ascerbic" - but we say bunk to that! Unlike any appearance he's made on a podcast to date, we present "Howard Baum's Favorite Things," where Smith gets Baum to speak about only the things he loves best about pro wrestling - which happens to be the grit, blood, and realism of mid-1970s promotions - which just happens to jibe with Smith's heart as well. Plus: Co-host Joe Puccio and Smith take a look at the future of Vice TV's influential Dark Side of the Ring series! Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!
