The march 7-13 1994 episode was good. Exile on Badstreet episode 50 came out last weekend and it talks about the 1988-89 Boston Garden house shows, I'd like to see a Exile on Badstreet series about WWF Spectrum shows

I have been trying to give this a go, but man, it sucks. The way that dude enunciates syllables is annoying as hell. And all they do is read the dirt sheets. Literally, that is it.

I only listen to BtS when my insomnia is acting up. Bix has a horrible voice for radio/podcast. Kris is good and I love Exile on Badstreet.

I think Kris is the one who annoys me, is he the one who does most of the reading? It is definitely something to fall asleep to, but gets no airplay in the whip or at the gym.

Bix is the one that sounds like he is talking thru his nose. I wish I still had copies of Bix's old podcast fro 13 or so years ago. It was a decent show but most of that is cause back then Bix had no filter. Once he started getting work as a journalist he made sure to take all his old shows off the net.

That's wrestling history dude! They mix in their commentary on some issues, a sprinkle of fantasy booking, hidden gems on youtube and so on. They almost know TOO much because they can delve into minutia of small territories and sometimes it's a struggle to follow the plot. Zellner's love for wrestling is infectious.

I much prefer the vibe of, say, The Lapsed Fan if I am going to listen to a marathon super deep dive of wrestling history. I know BtS offers more expansive coverage of wrestling as a whole, but it is boring as hell in my opinion. I don’t like sounding like a hater, but I have found some good podcasts off the strength of recommendations of this board. So, I was genuinely surprised that this one got such high praise. It gets love in a lot of threads.

I'm surprise Bix is still on this one What makes ya say this? Kris and Bix have been friends since the early 2000s if not earlier.

Just that you never know with Bix Bix is an odd duck. Known him and his cousin since the late 90s. And have seen Bix alienate and/or piss off many members of the IWC. Just like how for years Bix trash talked Meltzer and Bryan Alverez. But then IIRC Bix was the lead writer of Figure 4 Weekly for awhile. I still wonder if the public reason given for Bix quitting the 605 podcast is the real reason. Heard rumors on why Bix left. And they don't line up with what was said on the 605 podcast. I will give Bix this when I first started talking to him all he wanted to do was to make a living as a journalist. And it seems like he has managed to do that.

I don't know what the hell Kris is laughing at most of the time. Then again if you told me why, I'd probably just say "well there you go".

Just that you never know with Bix He and Zellner are making decent Patreon bank off this gig. The 605 doesn't have such a gimmick to raise cash.

I honestly think it's tied for the best wrestling podcast right now, period, with 6:05. Now that Prichard has already run through basically all of the topics I'd be interested in hearing him discuss, they are the two must-listen podcasts for me right now.
