Customer Reviews
Great tag team
Bruce and conrad flair
Years of Entertainment
I heard Bruce Prichard on Stone Cold’s podcast all the way back in either late 2016 or early 2017, it’s been too long to remember. He plugged his new-ish podcast, and considering I was working nights as a housekeeper, I needed more content, so I gave it a try. Something to Wrestle quickly became my favorite podcast, and something I looked forward to each and every week.
The wealth of stories Bruce had, as well as his *usually* good natured spats with Conrad, were can’t miss listening. Soon it was my go to for road trips, doing the dishes, etc.
I’ve learned so many things about my favorite wrestlers, and learned so much about the business from this podcast. As much as Bruce wants to share, anyway!
So why not 5 stars? Before I say anything negative, BLESS Conrad and Bruce both for continuing to put out this show as often as reasonably possible. When you consider that Conrad is now the undisputed “Podfather” and Bruce is working for one of the most successful companies (not just wrestling company) in the world, it’s really remarkable that this show has continued.
The magic is waning, unfortunately. Conrad sounds rushed, or disinterested, quite a bit. Bruce has always had some “cranky” streaks, but his energy has understandably changed over the past few years as well. Go listen to a recent show, and then the Radicalz or Brian Pillman episode to see what I mean.
In fact, DO go listen to those episodes. Listen to them all. It was my favorite podcast, and it’s still a fine one.
Bruce, Conrad, if either of you read this:
Thank you. You two were unknowingly there as I went from a housekeeper to a Sterile Processing Lead. You were the soundtrack to many road trips. You’ve given me so many laughs and even a few tears! You guys rock, don’t let that magic slip.
So many great stories from the golden era of wrestling.
This podcast answers all the questions for fans of the golden era of wrestling in the 1980s and 90s. It’s by far the best podcast that Conrad Thompson does.
