The fact that a bunch of kids–who are still trying to figure out their way with this–put out two huge wrestling shows on their own from literally nothing, no local foundation at all? That’s crazy effort and dedication, man. Ro: They’re all a bunch of hard-working guys who love pro wrestling. Can you guys share us your personal thoughts about the organization and how it has revived professional wrestling in the Philippines? Q: We also heard you three have also been part of PWR. There are times that I listen to the obscure music podcast when they have a good show, or debut a song from a band I like. Then there’s the occasional episode of Art of Wrestling (Colt Cabana’s more storytelling kind of podcast), occasional NBA podcast (The Starters, Hang Time with Sekou Smith) every now and again. I guess that counts, right? I’m a huge Bill Simmons fan and his basketball articles come very few and far between, so his videos with Jalen Rose sort of compensate for that.Ĭamus: I’ve gotten around to listening to Talk is Jericho, and Cheap Heat on a subscription basis. I don’t really listen to other podcasts at the moment, but I do listen to Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose’s banter on the Grantland Channel pretty often. I try to bring that to the podcast, too, but not too much since TIJ is a wrestling podcast, too. If you listen to my radio show ( The Factory on Mellow 94.7, Mondays to Fridays, 4-8 PM! Cheap plug number two!), then you’ll probably hear some influences of Chris Jericho in the way I deliver some of my spiels. Stan: I listen to Talk is Jericho (TIJ) and Cheap Heat, too. Whatever it is that works for them, I’m trying to absorb. Besides enjoying and learning, I’m also trying to learn as much as I can from how these people operate and do their shows. I also listen to The Combat Jack Show and Juan Epstein, both hip-hop podcasts. Ro: My top wrestling podcasts are the Steve Austin Show, Talk is Jericho, and Cheap Heat. Q: What other podcasts do you three like listening to in your spare time? Incredibly fun to edit, and ridiculous topics make those two some of my favorites. All three of us are huge Eddie Guerrero fans, and it was a very emotional episode, so it was cathartic to have gone through that exercise with Raf and Ro.Ĭamus: I’ve got to say the Eddie Guerrero episode was the most fun to record, because of the subject matter… but I do have to say that I am happiest with our two-episode awards shows. I also particularly enjoyed the Eddie Guerrero tribute episode that we did on the ninth anniversary of his passing. I mean, who would have thought we could find a way to connect stand-up comedy and professional wrestling? Oh, it’s true. It was also cool getting to know him and the art of stand-up comedy more. Stan: Hands down my favorite episode yet is one of our most recent episodes with Red Ollero of Comedy Manila! Red’s probably our first guest who religiously follows WWE and the backstage news as much as we do, so it was great to have that added voice in the episode.
