Audio
Great show, Eric's audio is subpar most of the time. Professionals listen back to make sure the audio sounds good to the listener. Just constructive criticism that you might like to know.

Thank you Eric.
Life long pro wrestling fan. Passionate about the product. Thank you Eric for your constant honesty. Love listening to Eric’s insights and experiences.

Mic issues
Eric needs to fix the echoes on his mic set up. Conrad comes in crisp and Eric sounds like he’s talking through the bottom of a toilet. The inconsistency of quality has lead to the consistency of me not listening.

Used to enjoy it
Eric just seems to be consistently negative about a lot of things to the point where I stopped listening mid podcast and then it became too consistent with said negativity.

Solid pod. Conrad seems like a genuine dude who is about his business. Eric is great and always gives informed opinions and acknowledges his bias. A great listen for those who want to dip into the true business of the business, while still having fun and talking about ‘rasslin. People seem to get real bothered by the AEW talk, I think it’s refreshing. You have Eric who is brutally honest and sometimes overly critical, and Conrad who is a fan that occasionally sticks up for them more than necessary. Do more ‘00s WWE talk!

Eric the whistler !!
Love the show but Eric needs to figure out how to stop mouth whistling

Conrad ruins it
used to love this show but Conrad ruins it. Half of the show is ads, most of the rest is Conrad sucking off tony kahn. If the topic is Nitro 97 thats what i want to hear about not aew, If i want to hear about aew I will listen to an aew podcast. Eric is correct, tony is not the guy, just a no talent money mark like conrad.

Question love the pod
So first off as per your recommendation I watched 3000 miles to Graceland just love it!! It is really a good hidden Gem, question I have a panting for hulk hogan my daughter painted it, she battling cancer and never watched wrestling until she started chemo and we watched from the rise of hogan until we caught up, to present day. When hogan turned she cheered and screamed that’s what we deserve we never should have booed Hulk. Anyway I know I can’t have his address but is there a PO Box or something? She is fighting but doesn’t look good and I promised her I would find away for Hulk to get it. She is really good and it’s beautiful. Half Hollywood and half his face 80’s hogan.

Please do not waster your time
I previously used to enjoy this show but the constant negativity is unbearable at this point. I use wrestling as an escape and listening to this show does nothing but create drama and negativity.

Washed up grifter
Used to listen weekly as I was a huge WCW fan. Had to stop listening because of Eric’s horrible take on AEW. Keep calling for its death. You’re just driving fans away from your own product at this point. Get over it old man

Not able to download for a month
Thought I might have done something wrong, but I see other people having the same problem. I love the podcast, but not able to get any new shows since the 1st of September. What's up with that?

This podcast is boring!!

Ron Simmons compared to Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair,Rey Mysterio????
Nothing but respect for Ron Simmons but he had very little long lasting INFLUENCE in professional wrestling. Nobody talks about his WCW championship run with reverence. Had a great career, made good money, which is most important. You have to be honest AND NOT a sycophant.

Great show, but….
It’s a great show and Eric’s perspective is incredibly interesting, but there are two minor issues with this show. The audio quality at times is rough. There are so many times where Eric’s mic drops or lowers at random and it can be difficult to deal with at times. Second and more importantly, Conrad is just not a very likable guy. There is a wildly strong yet underlying arrogance that accompanies him when he speaks that it makes him nearly unlistenable. Eric saves the show bc as a person, he and his perspective are just incredibly interesting but Conrad is a tough listen, every show, without fail.

Best wrestling podcast
This is the best wrestling podcast!! Why go anywhere else when you can get it from the man that reshaped pro wrestling!!

Need a new co-host
I love Eric but cant listen because of Conrad Thompson. Anybody that puts that much stock in what Dave Meltzer says on a weekly basis has no credibility with me. He is a liability to this show. Time to find a new co-host, Eric.

Jericho episode
I just listened to this episode and hearing Conrad go over the no ticke no laundry spat made me laugh so hard a started crying lol!!!

Old format
I like this show and find it entertaining still but I miss the old “deep dive” on WCW topics.

Thank you!!
This was an awesome listen. I really appreciate the pin point accuracy of the facts and context.

Conrad can’t eat his way out of this one.
Connie’s hitched his wagon to AEW now he’s got a whole pile of problems that even he can’t eat his way out of .

Bischoff is God
Great podcast.

Use to like the show when it was about nostalgic topics but there is too much uneducated current product discussion when Eric already has a separate show to do that.

Easy E is still on top!
I appreciate Eric’s willingness to record consistently. There’s no such thing as a “Rewind” or “Best Of” episode on his two podcasts. Great content and very enlightening!

Behind the curtain
I am a business of the business fan. Eric provides the best insight of this aspect. Always a great listen.

Pandering cowards.
Did it ever occur to either of you sniveling goofs to acknowledge that all any of us have at this point are allegations relating to Vince? You’re speaking about these issues as if there has been a conviction. Has the married public figure paid millions in hush money to avoid scandal resulting from his penchant to bang around? Sure. Why is it so implausible to you that other girls might attempt to capitalize on that precedent!? Until there is a criminal conviction, it’s about money.

The best
On a weekly basis Eric kills it. The experiences he has had and the fact he is an open book makes him the best. He really has lived the dream in his professional life, personal life, and now his podcast life! Cheers to both podcasts!
TJ Flynn
Awesome podcast
I love the interviews every show , Also i love the old stories they bring up , Love to catch up on the older wrestlers i grew up when i was younger keep up the great work.

Too many ads
You just fill the episodes full of ads to try and make everyone support the Patreon. I’ve been a listener since day 1, but find myself tuning in less and less because of how many ads there are.

Conrad
You would think for all the podcasts that Conrad does he would clean up his audio. The audio the last few shows have been brutal.

83 commercials
This show would be so great if it didn’t have constant commercials every few minutes. The commercials are usually longer than the actual talking in between. I think most of us don’t listen to the commercials and fast forward through them, to be honest. There’s got to be a better way to fit your commercials in and make your money and not frustrate your audience. It’s to the point where I am about to give up on listening to the shows. Maybe settle down with all the commercials. Great show otherwise.

Eric complains more about AEW
On this weeks episode of strictly business, hear Eric complain more about AEW! and even throw out a conspiracy that tony khan must’ve bought all the tickets to ALL IN and thats why the numbers were so high!
Tune in next week to hear more about why Eric hates AEW because he couldn’t get hired there, as well as more sucking wwe’s flacid weenis because they still cut checks to this irrelevant bottom feeding human who is no longer relevant in the business.

Conrad the contrarian.
Eric is giving a well thought out opinion. Conrad “I think you’re being argumentative..” Dude. Give it a rest. Worst running bit in podcasts.

Great content but way to many advertisements
Love the show and the great insight it provides, but wow, the ads make it unbearable. It’s too the point where it’s an advertisement, with some wrestling content sprinkled in.
ReadaBookOneTime
Love this podcast, but…
Way to many ads. I feel 1/3 of the show is ads. Really enjoy Eric’s insight, especially since been rewatching WCW Nitro/PPV’s.
jkoster022
Love Eric, HATE Conrad
The show is an awesome insight into WCW, but I cannot stomach Conrad. We get it. You have money and bought your way into all of this. He constantly reminds his audience that he has “connections”, and he’s been inside the wrestling business his entire life. He comes across as “I have money that bought me everything. Don’t you wish you were me?”
Jamieman37
C’mon with the ads
The first wrestling podcast I ever listened to. Eric’s perspective is so useful and at times entertaining. But as Thomason’s podcast footprint expands, the ads are just awful. I’ll skip 17 to 20 minutes of the ad content now. I get they need to pay the bills, but c’mon.
Flemish Pops
Too Many Adds
They constantly advertise and plug products which takes away from the content. Some episodes it is every five minutes or so. I don't know if this is their way to push everyone to the paywall (Adfree Shows) but it becomes annoying and often ruins the flow of episodes.

WWE Sale ?
I love how Eric Bischoff stay away from factual assumption, like he knows what WWE will do. But gave a educational perspective of how a business operates in a sale, concerning WWE. Enjoy pt 1 &2👍🏽

Ads
Feels like the ads are wearing nWo shirts and running wild on their newer episodes. Sad, after listening since day one that they have increased so many ads. Not entertaining anymore

JSorensem
Come on now
Big fan and normally impressed by every episode. But let's not label episodes like " NWO Wolfpac " and talk about Sami Zayn for an hour and a half. I listen to this show to hear insight in when wrestling was good. Not about the current state of affairs in todays snooze fest.

Amazing podcast !
I’m a huge fan of the behind the scene aspect of wrestling. I re watch WWE documentaries all the time. Specifically the Monday night wars and the rise and fall of wcw. So getting to listen to Eric talk about that time in wrestling history is amazing and captivates me every episode. I highly recommend listening to this very informal and very entertaining podcast. 5 stars easy.
