  • Bradshaw is an idiot

    The man is intolerable, he is such a yes man if Vince told him to throw himself in front of a train he’d probably do it. I call JBL Ace Jr now. Calling Rampage Jackson a man and a good father was the last straw for me. JBL is a great example why to hate the wrestling business and a complete detriment to it. I still have some respect for Jerry.

  • Jerry Brisco is still alive so listen up

    John has a great voice for radio. Trying to listen to Jerry gets hard at times but great topics and guests and stories. A good podcast about the industry.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Special Guest - Author Bobby Matthews
Q: Where did your passion for professional wrestling start?
Matthews shares his passion began when he was four years old, attending a wrestling match with his father.
Special Guest - Don Felder
Q: Do you think music is kind of losing its soul or losing its personality with all the new AI technology coming in?
I think it loses its soul when you do that too much. It doesn't sound human. It doesn't sound emotional. It sounds perfect, but it just doesn't have the emotion to me.
Special Guest - Don Felder
Q: Did you learn anything different about yourself? Is there anything different about your music from this hard charging, young rock and roll star to now still the rock and roll star, but the iconic legend?
I just have loved writing music, recording music, so I have a studio. I love walking in. No idea what I'm going to do. Just turn out in the studio, pick up a guitar, push record, and play and see what comes out.
Special Guest - Wang Chung Legendary Musician Jack Hues
Q: Do you still enjoy performing as much as in the 80s?
Definitely, it's still a thrill and now there's a sense of gratitude in the performances.
Special Guest - Wang Chung Legendary Musician Jack Hues
Q: Jack, can you tell us about your album?
The album encompasses a retrospective look at my career, showcasing hits and rare tracks.
