Walter Melgar

A fictional character in the Star Wars franchise and trained as Darth Sidious' first apprentice, he serves as a Sith Lord and master of wielding a double-bladed lightsaber. Walt first appears in Star Wars: The Phantom... Oh, wait, that's Darth Maul, not me.

Oh well, just a big sweaty nerd who loves his Star Wars, a podcaster who loves his fandom and a guy who loves his family. But enough about me, what about you guys?!?

Wolfie, certified beast on the jiujitsu mats, super nice guy when he is out of the gym, the man is certifiably nuts when it comes to his fandom. Star Wars (especially Boba Fett), superheroes, anime, you name it, he knows it. Check out his voice and opinions on the cast!

On this podcast, if you ever hear us talking about Godzilla, certain topics in Star Wars, DC, and near anything relating to Mythology, I guarantee you, 100%, that you'll hear my voice. I am a diehard fan of Godzilla, Supernatural (SPN), and more recently, Dragon Ball. Here's a quick window into my mind: favorite Godzilla Movie Era= Heisei series (1984-1995), favorite Angel on SPN= Gadreel, and favorite Dragon Ball transformation= Golden Oozaru.
I am most interested in facilitating discussions regarding interpretation, and occasionally dabbling in "Who's Stronger" debates. In my spare time, I do a lot of creative writing, gaming, and when the stars align, I do run a D&D campaign every now and again.

Whas poppin’ Jimbo! Eli, the best Call of Duty player and deep fryer of memes there is! I like games including Minecraft, (yes I like FORTNUT) Call of Duty, GTA, and any type of shooter or survival game. I like memes (especially on Reddit) and I like anime! So to wrap this up...
LESSON: Which is better Gucci or Versace?
