For being one of MMA’s all-time most talked-about fighters, it sure feels like Conor McGregor is a big, fat unknown headed into his return fight Saturday at UFC 329 against Max Holloway. Don’t know if you’ve noticed but up until about a week ago, the... more
Old guys seem to be having a renaissance in the UFC right now and, as gentlemen of a certain age, we frankly couldn’t be happier. Shout out to Mike “Bad To The” Bohn for pointing out this week that the older fighter has won the main event of every nu... more

These guys legit just suck. They’re chronically online and treat this podcast like their political sounding board. I want to like them, but unfortunately they hate the world they’re living in so much they simply can’t stop crying about it.
Long time listener. We just had one of the biggest UFC events in Years and instead of talking about the fighters, they spend the majority of the time complaining about politics. I’m sick of hearing about politics and not why I listen to an MMA podcast, which is why I’ll no longer subscribe.

A candid, long-running MMA show that blends in-depth fight analysis with broad business, promotion, and media discussions. Episodes routinely weigh fight dynamics and pay structures against branding, cross-promotions, and streamer deals, all delivered with sharp humor and irreverent banter. Listeners can expect a steady thread of listener questions, Patreon/community updates, and timely take on the sport's shifting media landscape, from Netflix and cross-promotions to pay and promotion strategy. A standout is the hosts' willingness to push back on hype and explore how media, money, and personalities shape the sport as much as the octagon action.
