Paid Members air_raid Posted April 17, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 17, 2018 Mental. Still, I suppose I shouldn't be shocked. Finding an ATM in Tokyo is miles harder than it should be and I was gobsmacked to find out how rare chip and PIN is and that huge swathes of society rely on shitty little building society style passbooks to draw their cash.
WyattSheepMask Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 For anybody that’s interested, Something Else To Wrestle with Bruce Prichard starts on WWE Network on Wednesday British Strong Style are on today’s Talk Is Jericho
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted April 19, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 19, 2018 Well SETWWBP is just their podcast, with the addition of juddery web cams and the bleeping of some naughty words. Conrad was less of a dickhead than he usually is, so hopefully that continues. Both look like characters out of League of Gentlemen.
WyattSheepMask Posted April 19, 2018 Posted April 19, 2018 I had to put a towel over Conrad’s half of the screen, I can just about cope listening to him, but I can’t be doing with looking at him too. The use of archive footage made it like one of those Legends of Wrestling Roundtables that Mean Gene used to present
Paid Members PunkStep Posted April 19, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 19, 2018 They should bring in the animators used when they put the Ricky Gervais podcasts on TV, that worked really well.

I'm sure I've heard references on podcasts fairly recently of guys receiving cheques in the mail, but I think that was for royalties. It still wouldn't surprise me though. Yep! I live in Canada and binweekly psyments and Cheques are how a lot of us are paid
Guest Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Hopefully ok to share here, I have started a podcast that is looking at the Scottish scene, and getting voices out for people on the way up , and I’m also doing some mini documentary shows on events and companies history’s to help spread the word. My first show is an interview with Lewis Girvan where we discuss his training, that he’s now a trainer at two schools and his career in various companies in Scotland, northern England and Ireland . Its about 85 mins all in , and appreciate any feedback if anyone wants to give it a go. Its on anchor just now while other sites verify me as it’s the first show, so iTunes podcast site probably later today Lewis Girvan podcast
CTXRussomark Posted April 22, 2018 Posted April 22, 2018 I'm amazed the Prichard show made it onto the Network looking the way it does. Part of me feels like I should appreciate the no frills approach considering how over-produced everything else is thesedays, but watching 2 hours of stuttering webcam-quality video with audio that isn't even synced isn't a fun experience. It proves Vince isn't monitoring the Network content I guess.

It proves Vince isn't monitoring the Network content I guess. I wondered when watching it if the quality of the webcam was deliberately shit to give the show some sort of edgy or non-corporate feel. I don't use Skype, but I would expect the quality of a standard call to be better than that? And even if Skype is that bad, it would cost WWE almost nothing production wise to provide Conrad and Bruce with equipment for a better video recording. Overall I didn't like the show as much as a normal podcast. Yes, it was good seeing the accompanying clips, but I thought both men held back a bit, and there were too many short impressions that were done just to show Bruce can do them and that he had his little gimmick cardboard faces made. The podcast is great to listen to when driving/running/doing something at the same time, but I don't think its worth putting time aside to just watch it on the Network and not do anything else.
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted April 23, 2018 Awards Moderator Posted April 23, 2018 Catching up on Wrestle Me at the moment, the second WrestleMania VI episode has been one of my favourites so far - the conversation about Dusty Rhodes particularly was a really good listen.
WyattSheepMask Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 WWE Network version of Something To Wrestle is covering Wrestlemania V, which they did already on the regular podcast when they did The Mega Powers in ep2, so get used to hearing Conrad say “we’ve covered this already on our Mega Powers episode, which you can find in the archive”
Paid Members mim731 Posted April 25, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2018 Finally started Wrestle Me. Lives up to the hype, just a lovely, fun podcast.
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted April 26, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 26, 2018 10 minutes into Wrestle Me and I love it already. Cheers for the recommendation, dudes.
DootDootDoot Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Wrestle Me reminds you of all the outrageous stuff WWE/F got away with in those days - some of it I'd forgotten and it's insane!
Paid Members WeeAl Posted April 26, 2018 Paid Members Posted April 26, 2018 I only started Wrestle Me this week, and I'm up to WrestleMania 4 and it's great. I'm kind of glad I didn't start it right away as now I can binge on it.
