Dave getting furious about Joe getting the strength difference between a chimp and an orangutang wrong. Sold Also Joe treats super dry weirdo Canadian people like Jordan Peterson like they’re geniuses because their cadence somehow hypnotizes him and he’s become way more open to wrestlers recently so I now want him to interview Lance Storm as well

He apparently didn't know anything about the DA until after they did the episode, and they have talked about how uncomfortable it makes a lot of the skits with Austin and Debra in 2001 in hindsight during the Invasion episodes.

Kefin and especially Jo are pretty outspoken on social issues, so I wasn't surprised to hear that they eventually walked it back and talked about it, and it's cool that they did. Honestly, 90% of the reason I like their show is that they are so goddamn nice.

I like that Rogan has gained more of an an appreciation for wrestling (or toned down his previous shtick about it or whatever), because his show is a unique setting for interesting people even when his interviewing isn't that good, but...yeah. He genuinely seems to have no clue about the damage he's doing with the type of people he has on and the role he's playing in YouTube radicalization and the like, even as it's become a bigger deal.

Had a doozy tonight talking about Gavin McInnes leaving the Proud Boys. The most charitable explanation/take is that Joey just read the headline and nothing else.

So Kefin does a show explaining wrestling and he didn't know THAT about Austin? Or didn't want to bring it up? Dunno which is worse. gently caress him.

When you've got a podcast that's supposed to be a "How To" for new wrestling fans but you only really ever talk about WWE and things related to it you're already not that good at your job.

Yeah I wonder why he would mostly talk about WWE for new fans. Maybe because they're by far the biggest company in the world? Edit: Like, I'm not gonna pretend that Kefin is a good researcher, especially since he's stated multiple times that he usually keeps to the WWE bubble, but How To has done episodes on wrestlers outside of WWE (Young Bucks, Jimmy Havoc, Awesome Kong) so they're clearly up for it. And if the WWE wrestlers are more famous for their indie runs, they at least try to cover some of it (Kevin Steen, Daniel Bryan, El Generico). They're mostly a podcast for new fans.

Okada/Tanahashi, while great matches, didn't really have a whole lot beyond just seeing two intensely competitive dudes smash each other. Flair/Steamboat was quite a while ago and I don't really remember it as well.

It's bizarre really, WWE spends so much of it's time basically cargo culting itself. Putting things like 'heel authority figure' and 'babyface throws food and/or beverage at heel' together without really knowing WHY Austin got over, seemingly.

VJeff posted:You'd think they'd occasionally try doing some of the stuff that made that feud work. Legitimately I think a large part of the problem is that they're trying to have their cake and eat it too. The Authority stuff was full of things like HHH and Steph being horrible assholes loving people over for months, but then it was time for some charity deal or a new NXT show or something to do with women's empowerment and so they'd "break" character to be good guys but OOPS now we can't get our comeuppance from the face because we're faces too! huh and for some reason nobody buys the person we hosed over for months who never got their revenge as somebody to be taken seriously? Guess they just weren't ready for the push we gave them!  Vince, for all his many flaws, went out there and got humiliated and destroyed over and over and over again. Then he'd get revenge/gently caress things over and be ascendant for a little while before being completely humiliated again. The Invasion/Wrestlemania 17 basically marks the end of when he seemed to understand how important that was, though he did recapture a little of that old magic again the one night he came back and Roman Reigns beat Sheamus (?) for the title. He actually had people going nuts for Roman to win and they were super-happy when he did.

Dave himself has said his favorite WWF years are 97 (for that reason) and 2000 too. Not that you can't like one storyline from another year more, he just gushes over the Hart Foundation stuff so much.
