Come sit at the table

Table Talk is the long-form armwrestling interview show. Competitors, referees, promoters, coaches, table builders, and the people doing the unglamorous work that keeps a local tournament running. If you pull, organise, or officiate, and you know something, there is a chair and there is an hour.

East vs West 24: competitors listen at the press conference table, name cards in front of them
01

It is long

Between one and two hours. There is no clock and no segment to get to, which is the only way anybody says anything they have not already said four times that week.

02

Remote or in person

In person is better and remote is fine. Plenty of the archive was recorded over a call, and nobody watching can tell after the first minute.

03

You do not prepare

No question list to rehearse. Turn up, and talk about the sport with somebody who already knows how it works.

04

You get the clips

The full episode goes on the channel, and the shorts cut from it are yours to post. Several guests have had a clip outperform anything on their own account, in front of an armwrestling audience that actually watches to the end.

The guest list

Nobody here was booked because they were trending. They were booked because they know how some part of this sport works, and the episode ran until they had said it.

A living legend of the sport, in full.

Come sit at the table

Competitors, referees, promoters, coaches, table builders. If you are in this sport and you know something, there is a chair.

The thing you would say on a two hour podcast that you do not get to say anywhere else.

Recommending somebody else is welcome too. Put their name in and say why.
