- Breath of fresh air in scripted comedy
This scripted comedy series is so funny, its really made a world and series of characters that are so funny in the world of wrestling. The love and understanding of wrestling and its little niches really show in the detail.
Surprisingly its emotions go beyond humour sometimes, Caravan of Hell is legit terrifing and one of the best bits of audio storytelling I have heard all year, I highly recommened giving it a listen.

Apple Podcasts5Daniel ArterUnited Kingdom5 years ago - Comic strip antics for adults
Really enjoyable bit of randomness. Think Viz for Podcasts. You need to give it a chance but like radio comedy it can be really relaxing to just sit back and enjoy it.
Apple Podcasts5jonniejensenUnited Kingdom5 years ago - Audio spandex
I really hope this is all real and I can go see the PWF when it returns. This is the most fun I've had involving spandex.

Italy5 years ago - They don’t make em like they used to
This is the story of a true sporting hero. If you loved those documentaries about Michael Jordan or Aryton Senna this takes it to the next level. Listening to this will make you question everything you thought was sport up until this moment. Makes me want to put on a mankini and fight the neighbours. Hold my beer...
