I think the reason WWE's bullshit doesn't really bug me is mainly I've used up all my burning hatred on how the Pirates have been wasted over the years because of Bob Nutting's cheapness.

I thought Joe and Rich's reasoning the reaction of the WWE lockerroom to Dave was pretty interesting in that they don't really have or need a connection with him like they used to back in the day.

On the otherhand they thought the "Who hurt Black" segment was dumb and bad so as usually the Flagship is a land of contrasts

I've posted it other spaces and other's have seen it in discord, but working on a project with comrades from DSA that are burned out from organizing and wanting to just to do something that unites us in that being our love of wrestling. Specifically just doing an hour long AEW Dynamite focused pod (mainly because one of the hosts is one of the higher ups in the org); have a bunch of bonus content in my head already (also thinking we can still do Rampage since we have 3 core hosts and 2 back ups). This isn't a leftist critique of wrestling podcast because I find that banal and would be miserable if I had to week after week critique AEW Dynamite from a leftist position.

Anyway we've been fiddling around with coming up with a name with a recent suggestion really sticking out "The Proletariat Lariat" or "The Lariat from the Proletariat"

I'm showrunning this which is going to be stressful in that if any of you have met/talked with me (I did guest back in the old PSP pods back in the day) kind of a mumbler, but hopefully I can work through that!

Anyway other title ideas include: Piledriver your Boss, Wrestling Reds, Pillmanize Your Workplace/Boss/Capitalist, No DQ, No Countouts, No Gods, No Masters, or Guerilla Position.

Would appreciate critique; also working on the patreon which I kind of want to get a hand in writing reviews of shows to flesh out thoughts and whatnot. Will be upfront that I just use my laptop mic and also feel the banter might feel off because we tried very hard not to speak over another by using hand motions and taking stack.

I think Johnny is around my age and Pulse is a few years younger and I absolutely did not remember the Cherry Poppin' Daddies and Zoot Suit Riot from my childhood, it was something I discovered and laughed at much later.

Tony was in his mid 40s at the time so it makes sense he'd remember
That or not really knowing Issac Hayes, but honestly that's kind of more forgivable since he is mostly known as Chef

Will say having recorded 4 episodes of a mostly AEW podcast I can see why Deadlock dropped Rampage reviews because my cohosts were all kind of blah on it's importance; I'm in the minority though, but probably going to drop it as well.

Also speaking of recording the podcast and lol that zencaster ended early in the middle of the Dynamite review (we were just talking about Kingston and Jericho) so going to be fun Frankensteining two recordings
Also our guest came in just as we started the Dynamite review so we got to have someone do a run in for our podcast lol (which was fine since he watched Dynamite with us on Zoom but had to drive out afterwards so came in 40 mins in our recording out of nowhere) Any leftists are allowed on the zoom call btw and if you want to just guest on the pod afterward that's fine too lol

https://anchor.fm/the-proletariat-lariat/episodes/Proletariat-Lariat-Episode-4-The-Kliq-Wanted-This-Episode-Buried-e1euv5j

I don’t envy Maria who had to edit this episode; to give context we record on zencaster after zoom watching the latest Dynamite, we had a person on the zoom call and went “Hey you want to be on the podcast?” He was like “sure” so you send the emails out which take a while, that person had to go do an errand so we decided “Eh let’s get this going” so he did a wrestling style run-in just as we got to reviewing Dynamite 30 mins in (which was appropriate since that’s all he watched anyway).

Then zencaster hosed up and ended the recording early so we immediately launched another (it ended right in the middle of a discussion of the Eddie Kingston/Jericho promo) from my zencaster account and finished the show. Next day turns out DQ’s audio didn’t record so he decided to rerecord himself so as the main host of the week it’s all him just responding to the original recording.

Will say I think it’s because of our experiences as DSA members that we take stack very seriously in not talking over one another has come really handy in this pod.

Anyway next week probably going to stop reviewing Rampage and maybe open more with topics like we start out with Dax Hardword’s interview and toxic environments.

Also forgot to mention with DSA; my chapter is raising funds for Abortion access for Western PA Fund for Choice, this an annual drive and I usually join the team with gimmicks like "If you donate I'll post a cool behind the scene museum picture; for this I'll still do that but will also give a shout out on the pod (if you want one just type how you want to be shouted out) https://fund.nnaf.org/fundraiser/3736237
