Send us a text We ring in 2025 by dipping our toes into the tepid waters of TNA's self-contained pay-per-views, and we're joined by our friend, fellow comedian Dave Elliott! It's a lovely lovely time. Well, the chat is; the show is suitably poor quality. Enjoy! You can find out more about Dave on his website https://daveelliottcomedy.com/ !
