In 2008, three men, Dan Phelps, Michael Reiser and Dan Eime decided that their Monday night get togethers needed to be documented. With the help of a Rock Band mic, a dell laptop and a garage, MNR (Monday Night Reisers) was born. They later went on to call this show Shooting From The Hip.

After a few months of drunken nonsense, rants, vulgarity, Backdoor Andy, downright foolishness and saying hi to Joe, Dan Phelps and Michael decided to, in addition to their current show, do a passion project. Once a week they got together for the second MNR podcast, Falls Count Anywhere, their first pro wrestling show. Falls quickly got a larger fan base than SFTH. After a year of struggling, SFTH died a sudden death.

The death of SFTH left the future of Falls in question. In June of 2009, that question was answered. Dan and Michael began recording FCA again, this time over skype. The guys thought the show was great, but something was missing. Enter Shaun "Big Daddy" Brown and the return of an old name.

August 2009 saw the launch of this site and the addition of Big Daddy to the team. The pieces were falling into place, but it wasn't until January 2010 and the addition of TPSradio that the show you know now took form. Later this year, more growth is in store as we introduce a new branch to the MNR family tree. So stay tuned and watch us grow.
