I can honestly say that watching David Lee Roth talk about 1950s Japanese pro wrestling is one of the most surreal things I've ever seen.

Professor Roth. History 5150, Japan Edition, Riki brought the people together in their time of darkness and tickled the dopamine in their brains by winning , henceforth, motivating the Japanese people to cheer up and regoice. And Riki was from Korea, they were baffled by bullshit, but had a lot of fun watching the show. King Papa San Dr.Dave, you are telling history for all the right reasons. Zippidy-Bop.
