Drop A Pin

This week on Drop A Pin we sat down with two players from one of the most prestigious rugby teams of all time, The All Blacks. Billy Proctor and Pasilio Tosi came in the studio to tell Donnie and Chaps the ins and outs of rugby culture, what it means to be an All Black, and New Zealand itself! Then stick around to listen to two of Barstools Biggest Nerds T-Bob and Rudy talk about their interests in New Zealand and specifically relating to the Lord of the Rings series.
