So the quotes people use to demonstrate he’s lying could at any point be the lie and something else would be the thing approaching the truth. I mean, in this instance it confirms the “we just had a date and he bought me gifts” is a lie but we live in a post-fact world where the truth is whatever we say it is.

I'm not sure the defense you're making here? Bischoffs comments in early 97 corroborate the consistent story Bret and others have told since then.

That Bischoff is a liar and the 97 comments could be a lie and the ones from 3 days ago the truth. Look, he’s lying. They offered Bret a contract in 96. That’s just fact. I’ve dealt with people like Bischoff before and lying becomes so natural you can never tell which way is up.

I thought the Bret Hart episode would be bad considering the two guys on the podcast don't care for him, but oof, this was awful. I think I'm tapping out on the show after this one. Prichard is a liar, but at least he can be an entertaining liar. Yeah, it’s rough but it’s about Bret so I’m hanging onto every second. I probably won’t be a regular listener but c’mon you’ll listen when Ric Flair is the topic. Can’t wait to hear Conrad ask about Bishcoff saying he was gonna starve Ric and make him and his family homeless. Conrad gave Bischoff a hard time during "the fingerpoke of doom" episode and I am sure he would during a Flair episode. This was just a rough listen because Conrad had no interest in defending Bret, outside of telling the real numbers for the contract. That being said, Bischoff is a politician through and through, he is a master of diversion and selective memory.

Either way he was definitely enjoying Biscoff's burial of Bret almost too much.

The relationship with Ric started when Conrad threw a ton of money at him for some of his robes he’s a fanboy.

He's lying for the sake of lying when there's nothing to gain. Bret Hart is 60 years old lol, I don't understand why Eric has to protect himself here.

I gave the Bret ep a go. Not sure what I think honestly... one minute Bischoff's saying "It absolutely categorically didn't happen in 96, he's making it up or conflating two incidents" then the next he's saying "You'll have to remind me when that was, I'm bad with remembering dates"? You can't have it both ways. Also, wasn't it someone on here that gave Conrad shit for pronouncing Hennig wrong ages ago? Because I noticed he was just "Curt" all through this and he never said his last name

Because I noticed he was just "Curt" all through this and he never said his last name I've brought it up in the Bruce and Tony threads, as it annoys the piss out of me that a guy like Conrad can't even pronounce the name of a major star correctly. We know he lurks here, so maybe Conrad noticed.

This is why I didn't waste my time with a Eric podcast Me too. I'll only listen to the Bischoff podcast if he talks about AWA or TNA after his lawsuit gets settled. I'm tired of him always telling the same f***ing stories.

Say what you want about Bruce but at least his lies are minor stuff Bruce also accepts personal failures. He admits that it was his fault getting fired twice and that ideas presented turned out awful. Then we have Eric who will never take any blame in wcw losing a shit ton of money and then dying.
