    The Squared Circle Time Machine: Episode 68 - Mid-South Wrestling (11.09.84)

    Greg and Dane take a trip down to Oklahoma on the newest SCTM as they look at the November 9th, 1984 episode of Mid-South Wrestling on the WWE Vault channel. We take a look as the Rock 'n' Roll Express introduce a new concept match to end their feud with the Midnight Express and Jim Cornette in the territory. We also see a very young HBK as a jobber, the meeting of the Two Hacksaws, and a big sale by Skandor Akbar!

    The 506 Game: Episode 5 - Is David Stearns' Soul as Dead as Mitch McConnell's Eyes?

    In the first hour-long episode of The 506 Game, Greg vents to Mike about the last week in Queens with Pete Alonso's return with Baltimore and how much he hates the ground David Stearns walks on. Following that, they discuss today's CFB announcer slate, highlighted by LSU at Ole Miss, along with the Week 2 games in the NFL on Sunday. Good luck trying to figure out CBS' map this week.

    Episode 647--The Roller Disco Episode of CHiPs

    In the past, we talked about how huge disco was in the late 70s.  CHiPs combined disco with roller skating, mixed in over four dozen celebrities, and threw in three subplots to create a 2-part season three premiere episode.  It was yet another costly venture for NBC in 1979, but did it pay off in ratings points?

    The Squared Circle Time Machine: Episode 67 - WCW Monday Nitro (09.18.00)

    Greg and Dane watch this episode of Monday Nitro from the WCW YouTube Channel, and boy, does this have Russo-riffic written all over it. It's the night after Fall Brawl 2000, and we have chaos involving the #1 contender for the WCW title, Canadian Heel Hacksaw Jim Duggan, David Flair in depression because he's not the father of Stacy Keibler's baby, Disco Inferno interfering on behalf of The Filthy Animals, and Kevin Nash being so damn hilarious in backstage segments!

    The 506 Game: Episode 4 - Why is Greg's Internet Terrible? (or What's a Shirsey?)

    It's the first full week of football both college and pro here on The 506 Game as Mike and Greg (battling Internet connection issues) look at some fun match-up's on CFB Saturday and have their first fun with the gerrymandered affiliate maps for the NFL. They also discuss the controversial ending to Michigan/Western Michigan last week, Miami's beatdown of Florida A&M and most importantly what areas of the country are marked safe from Tom Brady's commentary this week.

    Episode 646--Square Pegs

    After a slight delay, we get to the earlier education part of our Back to School 2026 shows with a show loved by the critics but not seen by enough viewers.  (Sound familiar, Cheers from the same season?)  A clique of high schoolers strive for popularity and approval from peers in an era where you were one of the cool kids or you were nobody.  Do these square pegs ever fit in with the round holes?  44 years later, we may never know...
