    251: Surf's Up 2: WaveMania

    We're talking penguin Undertaker, otter Mr. McMahon, and FISH MILK on an all new Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up the greatest professional wrestling character of all time as they review the movie ScreenRant called "The Worst Animated Sequel Of All Time" - Surf's Up 2: Wavemania! It's a truly bizarre cartoon that can't decide if it's made for WWE fans or fans of the first movie, so it ends up being for no one. Starring alongside The Undertaker as animated penguins are John Cena, Triple H and Paige. And then there's Vince McMahon himself as an otter with a bizarre obsession - you're not gonna believe this one! We do our best to make a sense of a nonsensical plot and discuss the interminable length of the movie, the confusing rules of the Surf's Up World, Michael Cole as an exploding seagull, the Napoleon Dynamite reunion on the cast, the puns that did actually made us chuckle, the weird foreshadowing and premonitions in the movie, and much more as we RTL (you'll have to listen to find out what that means). Plus we share some bonkers Amazon and YouTube reviews of this movie that will leave you cracking up. All that and our monthly Undertaker Sightings including Alex meeting another wrestling legend and Travis's review of all the hot 2026 movie releases so far. Download, enjoy, and RTL! Oh, and Taker Easy!   Pick up our new DADMAN INC. merch over TeePublic.com and celebrate 25 years of the Biker Taker with us!    Check out the releaunch of our buddy Stephen's podcast on the Brothers Of Collecting on the Collecting Deadman YouTube Channel!   Listen to "Reconstruction", the new full length album from Travis White!

    BONUS: WrestleMania XXVII Fifteen Years Later With Watchalong Tommy!

    It was Written In The Stars for Alex, Travis, and Tommy to meet one day - we just didn't know it yet! On this special bonus episode of Talking Taker, we're joined by longtime P.S.K. member Watchalong Tommy to get into the WrestleMania week spirit and revisit a show that holds a special place in our hearts on it's 15 year anniversary: WrestleMania 27. We are all there for this one as it was in Alex and Travis's backyard of Atlanta. Meanwhile Tommy attended this as his first of many WrestleManias over the next decade and a half. We look back at what motivated us to attend back then, how much has changed with pricing and WrestleMania week activities, the matches we were hyped for, the ones we weren't, the ones that exceeded our expectations, and the ones that let us down. Plus we discuss our Axxess activities and autograph sessions, the souvenirs we stole throughout the week, and the things that got stolen from us! And hang around to the end to hear about Tommy's modern day run-in with none other than Mr. McMahon himself - no kidding! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!    Be sure to subscribe to Tommy's YouTube channel to watch the video version of this episode, and check out his live vlogs from WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas!

    248: The Birth Of The Streak

    We're going back to 1991...and we're going STREAKING! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as we take our time-traveling hearse back 35 years to celebrate the origin of The Undertaker's greatest accomplishment - The WrestleMania Streak! We're revisiting 3 matches that tell the tale of the birth of this epic achievement. Up first it's a rare house show encounter between The Undertaker and Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka that's not just a test run for their Mania 7 match-up - it's also Taker's first ever appearance at MSG! Then we take a look at Taker's tune up for the PPV on the Superstars and Stripes Forever show taking on Tugboat. These two titans tussled on many of Undertaker's first live event appearances and were even briefly slated to have a match at Mania before the plans changed, so it's interesting to see what might have been. Finally we close things out with a look back at the match that started it all for WrestleMania 7, a passing of the torch between two phenoms of pro wrestling. It's a unique look back at the origins of the most legendary run in all of sports entertainment history as we celebrate it's historic anniversary. All that plus our monthly Undertaker sightings looking at Mark Calaway's role as the booker of AAA as well as some anecdotes from his latest Six Feet Under podcasts.
