The Interactive Interview came to be in February of 2003
after James Walsh and Daniel Edler paired up to do a wrestling talk show.
The name came from the idea that was to split the show from all the other
shows that were available on the scene of the time of the show's inception;
Give the audience the opportunity to post their questions for the guests
that would be interviewed. Instead of it just being an interview, it was
an "interactive" interview because questions could have come from anyone
from anywhere provided they posted them on the forum.
In January of 2005, James Walsh and Daniel Edler split
as Daniel had other interests and was no longer devoted to the show. James
carried on the name on a brand new web site (wrestlingepicenter.com) and
continued doing the show with then friend Erik Clancy. The show continued
on without a hitch and continued the reputation the show had built.
In March of 2005, The Interactive Interview went live
on Arizona State University's campus station "The Blaze" 1260 AM. James teamed
up with Chuck D to bring a weekly live broadcast to the station. The name
would later be changed to Wrestling Epicenter on the station.
In June of 2005, The Interactive Interview went on hiatus
with James devoting his time to the live broadcast and Erik Clancy forming
his own show on the site known as the Weekend Warriors of Wrestling along
side Patrick Kelley.
In October of 2007, The Interactive Interview was revived
by James Walsh as he returned to regular broadcasts for the first time since
leaving "The Blaze" 1260 AM in July of 2006. Patrick Kelley joined James
Walsh as his new CO-host while Nick "Griffin" Noel provided guest analysis.
