The Attitude Era Podcast AEPodcast

This podcast series has gotten me through more than what I’d care to admit, from bad breakups and lows to just absolutely soul crushing days at work being able to have this podcast has made life a little easier. From quips and references to 90’s media to in depth analysis over storylines and just trying to make sense of wrestling, this is probably the only wrestling podcast(aside from how2wrestling) that I tell people to give a listen to either for nostalgic purposes or for explanation on some big storyline moments of yesteryear

I used to LOVE this podcast. I would binge it on my shifts every day of every week. I started from the last episode and worked my way to the first, loved it so much that I immediately started from the beginning and worked my way to the end. I couldn’t get enough. So much so, that I made my very first patreon pledge to them. I was dedicated, I would even defend them when Maffew shared their clips on the Botchamania page and people would say they were cringe, “you just have to give it a chance!” I’d say.

But I cannot stand this show anymore. And it hurts. Somewhere along the way, this show became far-left and more about politics than why we’re all here in the first place. It’s annoying, grating, and intolerable. I’d implore every new listener to check out the earlier content first, ie the Attitude Era, and either forego or take the new stuff with a grain of salt.

Hope the day comes when the quality gets better.

I not only love listening to these shows, but I like that they’re unique in this specific arena, where they’re willing to call out how problematic wrestling is and used to be. Seeing all the whining in the reviews only tells me that they’re touching nerves that people who are problematic themselves are unwilling to confront, past or present. They’re delightful boys and I appreciate them.
