Love these guys !! Best wrestling podcast, I love how they mix in everything lol but I would like a little more NWA but I’ll never stop listening

Finally got around to checking out…

…”Little Petey” after hearing OVP plug GFA for 100th time and I’m glad I’m did. It really is a great show and easy listen. Guessing we’re close to same age so the references mostly land. Good stuff!
UPDATE 10/22/23: Listening to WM 5 part 1 ep…not sure about that Keith guy and some of his takes (Demolition much bigger pop than Road Warriors…Gorilla not really liking Ventura…good thing Pete’s there to set him straight!)
