I recently started listening to this podcast and binged the past year of Podcasts. It’s been so cool getting enveloped in the true college wrestling and international wrestling culture and I’ve just fallen more in love with this sport. I am committed to Snow College Utah and I have major aspiration. Don’t forget my name, Michael David JR. because I will be making an impact on the wrestling scene within the next couple years.

This show is entertaining and informative *if* you are deep in the weeds obsessed with wrestling. These guys will talk for 20 mins, mention 60 names, not mention a school or country (for international matches) or weight class; use first or last name with no consistent pattern. If you already know every decent wrestler and on earth it’s (probably) great. If you are a casual fan wanting to get prepped for a big event, don’t waste your time.

These two should make it official. Pyles is the worst. How about hiring a legend. Not Askren! A warrior who can be respected.

Turn yall mics volume up please🙏🏽

Honestly, I don’t even think you’d have to be a wrestler or even slightly follow wrestling to enjoy this show. These guys are legitimately bright, legitimately funny, they are obviously obsessive students of the sport, and the banter compels more audible laughter from me than podcasts that are meant to be comedy-centric. Ollie in particular is as quick on his feet verbally as anyone in podcasting or broadcast media today. If these guys were hosting a podcast focused on a sport with more media exposure, I guarantee they’d be household names.

Kinda ESPN-y version of a US wrestling show. Ben is like the crazy take dude, and the others keep the show moving. Idk it’s not like blow your socks off good, but it’s not bad by any means. I don’t listen to it religiously, but tune in every once in awhile to get insight on big news and happenings.

Guys. Where’s the podcast. It’s CKLV week and there’s not one podcast uploaded to Apple Podcasts. You guys gotta get it together. We rely on this info like it’s the news. I’m gonna move on from expecting a consistent program.

Christian is right on point when he says tooth and claw podcast is one of the best out there. I can’t stop listening to it. He mentioned it maybe a couple years ago and I got hooked. Have Ben or JD experienced it yet?

If CP and Ben were a little nicer to one another I’d go 5 stars. JD we’re better at freestyle/life because of folkstyle. Now take off that hat and get a shirt with a collar.

This show has never been perfect, but Askren is starting to really drag it down. He’s great on wrestling topics, but terribly stupid about anything else. Not excited to listen to new episodes any more.
