June 16, 20178 yr Author comment_5804044 I can just see parv Asphyxiating at the flair discussion. I really like the show with some really fun stuff and this is a hell of an undertaking. I loved your realisation that all this lingo you use and facts you take for granted as a fan are completely alien to a new fan. Thanks Richey! Appreciate the kind words and yes that last statement is dead on.
July 13, 20178 yr Author comment_5807112 Jeff Machado and JT Rozzero are best friends but Jeff has never been a wrestling fan… until now. With decades of wrestling history to catch up on, JT is leading Jeff’s completely clean slate on an educational journey through the wonderful story of professional wrestling. In episode four, Jeff is back from vacation and the boys cover Jeff’s first time watching modern WWE, Terry Funk’s body, Randy Savage’s trunks, Chico Santana, Ozzy Osbourne, The Hammer, Hulk Hogan’s friendships, Adrian Adonis and much, much more. So, join us on Jeff’s journey to learn all about pro wrestling, get sidetracked with us on many tangents and have a bunch of laughs along the way! http://placetobenation.com/jeff-learns-wrestling-4-great-balls-of-fire-terry-funks-body-hulk-hogans-friendships-chico-the-hammer-more/
July 14, 20178 yr comment_5807268 I think Hogan vs. Earthquake at SummerSlam might be a good match for Jeff to watch and it coincides with the real SummerSlam coming up as well. It's Hogan vs. a hoss but Hogan is a bit more vulnerable. I also thought about the Misawa vs. Jumbo feud as that is pretty basic as well but I'm not sure you're there yet.
July 14, 20178 yr Author comment_5807269 Thanks Lust! When we get to 90 we are definitely hitting that feud, I am trying to stay chronologically for now. WM3 coming up next episode!
July 14, 20178 yr comment_5807285 Gotcha. I guess I wasn't aware that you were going chronologically.
July 16, 20178 yr comment_5807448 These four episodes were quite a lot of fun, although I was dissapointed Jeff didn't give us the burial of Magnum - Tully that he promised us at the end of episode 3
July 16, 20178 yr Author comment_5807498 I will remind him that he owes us a good Magnum/Tully burial. And I am glad you are enjoying them!
July 19, 20178 yr comment_5807744 Love the show guys! Shouting at my phone saying "no! no! no!" when Jeff was talking about Terry Funk. Looking forward to where this heads.
July 19, 20178 yr Author comment_5807750 Thanks Allan! Every time I think he is on a roll something like that happens and grounds me without how far he still needs to go!

July 31, 20178 yr comment_5809177 It might only be me but the file seems to not be working under iTunes for episode 5
July 31, 20178 yr Author comment_5809180 It might only be me but the file seems to not be working under iTunes for episode 5 Really? I d/l and was listening to it earlier. Is this iTunes on your computer or the podcast app on your phone?
July 31, 20178 yr comment_5809181 Computer. It plays for 2 seconds and turns off. I'll try downloading again. This is the first time I've tried this show
July 31, 20178 yr Author comment_5809190 OK let me know if it still doesn't work and I will check it out. I also recommend starting from episode one of this series, they are quick listens.
July 31, 20178 yr comment_5809192 you can play it off placetobe.podbean.com also if iTunes is being wonky
August 3, 20178 yr comment_5809605 Another great show by JT and Jeff. Happy that Jeff appreciates Adrian Adonis. JT, I am hoping for a 180 on his Terry Funk takes from the other week though! All in all I am really digging this show. JT is a great teacher to have. If it was me, I wouldn't be able to resist ribbing Jeff with the odd white lie just to hear his reaction. "Yeah, didn't you know Adrian Adonis lost a ton of weight and went to WCW as Brian Pillman"
August 3, 20178 yr Author comment_5809632 Thanks Allan! That poor bastard is confused enough as it is lol.
September 18, 20178 yr Author comment_5814281 Hey Lust! We have had it scheduled like three times and shit keeps getting in the way. Been a rough stretch of scheduling issues. Coming soon and we are going to go big on this one, promise!

October 6, 20177 yr comment_5816028 Anothert fantastic show! Funny stuff about Moolah being a Diva and Jesses commentary. I think you stumbled onto something great in reviewing a whole show. This was a very interesting listen. I know youre from the North (BOO!! - Just kidding) and it seems like WWF will be the main thread BUT this looks like a good jumping off point to see how Jeff reacts to other types of wrestling. I could see you doing your next show on something totally different and then jump back into the WWF. I also think it would be great during those breaks to review an angle or series of angles that lead to a big match so that Jeff could understand the story being told. Anyway, I would love to hear you guys talk about: Misawa vs. Jumbo (This would be Jeffs first exposure to puro and I think the story is fairly straight forward) An episode of Memphis TV (Let Jeff hear the greatness of Lance Russell combined with the wackiness of the territory) NJ vs. NOAH Jr. feud (Again, I think this is something thats easy to jump into and has lots of heat) I look forward to the next show!! Great job!!
