#5-1 God(fister) Bless Those Dahn Americans (Part 1)
Manage episode 313180433 series 3261043
Well howdy partners, gather 'round... as it's time for our fifth episode of "The Fist, The Whole Fist And Nothing But The Fist, So Help Me Pod - The Official Fistball Australia Podcast"!
So, we decided to celebrate this micro-milestone with an international guest and we're pleased as pie to have our first bonafide Yank on the podcast - the ever-affable Cory Dahn, of the United States fistball team!
And boy oh boy, is it one whoopensocker of an episode... so much so that we have had to split it into two parts!
In part one, hosts Chris "Super Mario" Milne and Malcolm "Mr Fister" Donnellon reflect on the loose-but-hilarious episode 4, before introducing Cory to the salivating listeners over a selection of fine beverages. Then they discuss some intriguing news both in the fistball world and beyond, before deep diving into the golden legacy of the Dahn fistball lineage, the long and mostly-hidden pre-modern growth of US fistball and of course Cory's own fistball journey from an excitable young boy with tiny feeble fists and (possibly) a man-bun to a fully-grown American male blessed with fists of freedom and a steadfast refusal to revisit the man-bun of yesteryear.
Of course, as per usual, Chris, Mal and Cory all descend down tangent after tangent without a care in the world. But hey, time is but a mental construct, after all.
Part two will drop at the same time next week, and will cover the standard extensive game review - this time it's an epic battle between Cory's own SSC (Swim & Sports Club) and the WFA (Wisconsin Fistball Association) in the 2018 USA Men's Club Championship match - as well as the now-iconic shout outs segment. There are also many tangents in that episode as well, of course.
As always, a huge thank you to Rafael Dobler for the theme music to this podcast series.
Fist on!
