Apr 03 2025 153 mins  
Send us a text It's time, brother! Much like the arrival of Hulk Hogan in TNA, the arrival of Season 3 is greatly hyped, we start talking about him before he's even appeared on TV, and things are better before he got there. Hopefully you're as excited as we were to witness the power of TWTWmania! (Episode recorded March 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod Patreon - http:

Send us a text It's the penultimate bonus episode before Season 3, and we've decided to give ourselves a little treat by watching an all-time classic pay-per-view. Seriously, this was bloody great.

Feb 06 2025 117 mins  
Send us a text Is this the weirdest show we've covered? It might well be! This show can be tracked down online, but a version with subtitles that we used for recording can be found on our Patreon. It's somehow even less comprehensible when you know what people are saying. Now let's do it together: 3...2...1...HUSTLE HUSTLE! (Episode recorded January 2025) Linktree - http://www.link

Jan 15 2025 113 mins  
Send us a text We ring in 2025 by dipping our toes into the tepid waters of TNA's self-contained pay-per-views, and we're joined by our friend, fellow comedian Dave Elliott! It's a lovely lovely time. Well, the chat is; the show is suitably poor quality. Enjoy! You can find out more about Dave on his website https://daveelliottcomedy.com/ !

Nov 13 2024 87 mins  
Send us a text It's the coda of Season 2 (before we do the awards, anyway), and the aftermath of December to Dismember is a real opportunity for a reset of ECW. An opportunity that the company absolute fails to seize.
