Welcome to EKA 164! Today we are joined by our most long distance guest in show history, Walwin! Walwin is a singer, songwriter, producer and overall just cool dude. Currently based in Melbourne by way of South London, Walwin was kind enough to join me early in the Aussie morning for one of the most fun conversations we've had on the show. We dive into what makes pro wrestling so special, its correlation with alternative music and how it influences are culture as well as Walwin's wrestling Mt. Rushmore. We discuss his upbringing and early music history, from first hearing Chad Kroeger & Josey Scott's song "Hero" on the Spiderman soundtrack to playing LA in the 2010s to the upcoming release of his next single Parasocial Princess (mixed by former guest Tom Denney). We discuss Oasis, The 1975 and the musical stylings of the one and only Jim Johnston. The day we recorded this interview, his song "Make Stacy Great Again" did not leave my brain so we discuss the meaning behind the track along with some of his previous work like Survivor Series '97. Walwin , I love you bruv!
