Don’t ever say I don’t give the people what they want.
After I joked about doing an episode where I explain Kane to a wrestling novice on Twitter, the idea seemed to be quite popular, so I roped in my good buddy Vass to sit down for over an hour while I went through as much of Kane’s career as I could, in as much detail as I could.
The scary thing is, I still missed some stuff.
We’re back from our hiatus a week early to bring you this extra special chat with Justin Nottke (AKA “The Handlebar Haberdasher” Marion Fontaine) ahead of the next big Olde Wrestling show on August 1st.
In this episode we get into the genesis and future of Olde Wrestling as a promotion, Justin’s history as a backyard wrestling kid and I have the utmost pleasure to introduce Justin to the wonder that is WCW’s Arachnaman.
I’m joined this week by new friend and awesome writer dude Andrew Johnson to talk about the importance of VHS cover art and the impact it can have on a child’s brain, and the crushing guilt that came from a private chat with one of his (and my) personal heroes
This episode also contains one of the scummiest stories about an ECW original, and make sure you listen to the end, because… I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news.
It’s a great show this week, as I delve into one of professional wrestling’s most overlooked and underappreciated aspects, photography, with indie wrestling shutterbug Zia Hilty!
Over the course of the episode we chat about the New Generation of WWE, the best and worst of WCW, Marty Jannetty’s hair, Rick Rude punching a bear and what it’s like to be on the receiving end of Tursas’ rage!
We’re settling back into our regular, tried and true format this week, as I’m joined by the artist of Copernicus Jones: Robot Detective, Kevin Warren!
This one’s a long time coming, because after thirty-four weeks of podcasting, we finally get around to talking about e-feds! Plus, we get into the appeal of “cool-guy-heels”, the Monday Night Wars, and Kevin’s reactions to his first CHIKARA ever show.
Over the past month, myself and comics artist extraordinaire Kyle Starks have dedicated ourselves to one goal: Discovering how Scott Steiner went from Michigan born good ol’ boy to The Big Bad Booty Daddy.
Today, we recorded an hour and half long, special edition of Have A Nice Day and now you can all bear witness to our findings.
Come with us, down the Steinerhole…
It’s the last episode before “The Grandaddy of Them All” WrestleMania, and what better time than now to talk to the creator of Andre The Giant: Life and Legend, Box Brown?
In this week’s show we dig into Andre’s legacy, the level of research that’s necessary for good biography, and of course the upcoming Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royale (as well as our picks for all of the WrestleMania matches)
I’m over the moon to be joined this week by Brandon Stroud, of Best and Worst fame, who despite a crippling respiratory infection toughed it out to record two hours of quality wrestling chat.
This episode covers everything from using wrestling to cope with depression, to how growing up a wrestling fan was an asset during high school (eventually), to Inspire Pro Wrestling, and Brandon’s film Meet Me There starring the one and only Goldust!
Tom Holzerman, all around ace dude and big cheese over at The Wrestling Blog to talk about all sorts of wrestling goodness, including my firmly held belief that WrestleMania 2 – 8 exist solely to tell one epic story with Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth.
We also get into the current controversy surrounding Mike Bennett and Beyond Wrestling, and surprise surprise, we jump at the opportunity to talk as much as possible about Chikara
Referring to WCW Worldwide as a “fansite” almost seems too small, it’s an indispensable archive of some of the greatest, funniest, weirdest, and perhaps best off forgotten WCW matches, magazines and memorablia. Behind it all is one Mr. Bryan Barrera who took the time to chat to me about the one time greatest force in all of professional wrestling, and what it was like to be literally the only person who watched The Fingerpoke of Doom live as it happened.
