- Missed the mark
The show used to be a weekly listen for me and by far the greatest AWA podcast ever. I am a major AWA fan even in that lean years. I relive as much as I can through ESPN Classic shows and good old tape trading. However the absolute looney left politics of these Minnesota goof balls turned me off something fierce. These idiots support men in women’s sports.

I grew up in the Chicago land until 80’s. Loved watching AWA every weekend, all the characters were great. Da Crusher, Bobby Hennan, Bockwinkle & Stevens. What a great time in my let and so many great emerging stars..
Thanks

Having Jannetty on was a mistake. He’s been erratic and unbelievable for years. That decision resulted in 90 minutes of rambling, pitiful trash. Your production value is always marginal, but you’ve had great shows in spite of it. Brunzell was the high point. But having Jannetty on despite his recent lunatic ramblings and clear impairment was a total waste. Should have made like Verne and taped over that episode.

We never hear anything about Mitsu Arakawa and Dr Moto. They were AWA tag team champs.
