If you are interested in pro-wrestling at all, I suggest 83 Weeks podcast with Conrad Thompson and Eric Bischoff. I've been listening to it on YT. I find it so interesting, being a pro-wrestling fan. I don't know if my IQ point just went down with some of you with that revelation but there are times when I can't be bothered with it and other times I can get into it.

I was in Chicago all last week for All Out. AE Dub! AE Dub!
You lose IQ points for listening to Bischoff though

Yeah same here! Never heard of him, then last August a year ago after months of the lockdown and all this depressing social media stuff I saw him on the Joe Rogan video show and was blown away. I was like how have I never heard of this guy. Had no idea he's younger than me(Im almost 44 and I guess he's 36) but he seems like he's older. A year later Ive gone thru most of his archive and am a total Tim Dillon fan. I just want to see him in movies, tv shows, etc. He had Jeff Garlin on the Tim Dillon Show saying what a big fan he was and saying he'd love for Tim to be on the next season of Curb which was pretty cool. I just got back from a week in Los Angeles so I totally get all the weird twilight zone Tik Tok stuff he talks about.
Oh yeah! Discovered WWF in the latter 80s, then around 1990 a friend at school got me into WCW and we got the PPVs. Went to a lot of late 80s/early 90s WWF house shows but fell out of wrestling. Then by 1995 got big into WCW again then started watching WWF again in 1996 and discovered ECW, then when WCW and ECW were bought by WWF in 2001 I fell out of wrestling other than a ppv here or there. I kind of remember the rise of CM Punk a decade ago, watched that Daniel Bryan Wrestlemania in 2014 but it was discovering New Japan and Kenny Omega in 2018 and then AEW in 2019 that I became a huge fan again. "WWE" tho is utterly unwatchable tho.

I still can't believe CM Punk is back, and to me he looked damn good. It's funny I hate real combat sports like MMA or boxing, as I don't like seeing guys beating eachother up, but I love pro wrestling.

It was fantastic! I was at All Out in 2019, which was great, but All Out in 2021 was on an entirely different level. I fell back into being a wrestling fan with the ascent of Daniel Bryan in WWE in 2013 after being a big WWF fan in the late 90s. So I've been with him on the whole journey of clawing his way to the top of WWE despite all the pressure against him, to being forced into retirement, then being let back but never allowed any real creative freedom. So I was utterly ecstatic to be present for his AEW debut at the end of All Out. It was the culmination of a good 8 years of waiting. And now he's going to wrestle Kenny f'n Omega.
In all the darkness of the world right now, AEW is like this bright light of happiness. You go to their shows—especially lately—and it's like a party. Everybody is so happy, from the fans to the wrestlers. You don't find that anywhere else right now. I agree with you about combat sports, not a fan. But there is a purity & innocence to pro wrestling that I love.
Speaking of which, Dynamite is starting now...
Fat Leonard - The Man Who Corrupted the U.S. Navy Under arrest and battling cancer, Leonard Francis, aka FAT LEONARD, is angry, and he's talking for the first time. His explosive story will change the way you look at the U.S. Navy forever. Listen to the podcast now!
t’s a story for our times. Leonard could only have existed in the post 9/11 world of runaway defense spending. At the height of his powers he lived in a $130- million mansion and had a fleet of 20 luxury cars.
He secretly recorded orgies with some of the Navy’s most powerful men, one of the U.S. military’s worst ever security failures. China and Russia never could have done this much damage.
Now, as the U.S. pulls recklessly out of Afghanistan, Leonard is in detention – a symbol of the folly of the past 20 years. And as the trials of Navy officers involved with Leonard start early next year, we ask: Has there been a coverup in the Navy?
