Jim sat down with the sensational Sugar Dunkerton for a chat. If you don't know Suge, he's in the UK for the next six months and is really making his name here after spending his time doing good things on the indie scene in the USA. As the UK scene keeps growing, it's cool to get the perspective of someone who has moved here to be part of it, as opposed to the old tradition of British guys heading for the states to make their fortune. Suge is a GREAT guy and someone you should definitely be checking out if he's wrestling near you; this was a really fun chat and there probably needs to be a part two down the line!SUPPORT THIS PODCAST!
