Adam joins the show to watch his first wrestling match ever. EVER! And it's a doozy, as we return to Lucha Underground to witness a hateful skeleton ninja batter an aging vampire pope with broken glass and fire. It's fun for the whole family!

I finally hit the jackpot with Shawn, who openly hates pro wrestling. I'm forced to use one of the biggest guns in my arsenal -- the sublime character work of "Macho Man" Randy Savage to prove him wrong. Also: Bidets!

My very good best friend Stephen "The Train" Graham joins me to relive the best match ever put on by a promotion otherwise known for dropping the ball. Also: Goth dads! Pleather head napkins! Learn why Atlanta is the worst possible Dubai!

Ahmad returns, joining me in my audio TARDIS for a trip to 1970's Britain. It's a strange parallel universe where wrestling fans hate showmanship but get real excited about polite wristlocks. Also: the porno parody of The Grinch! Mops! The Eurovision Song Contest!

Renee joins me to discuss masks, tradition, Billy Zane, and the tragedy of needing surgery five times in one's left knee as tiny superhero Rey Mysterio wagers his very identity against the championship of super scumbag Eddie Guerrero.

Julian joins me to discuss Lucha Underground, the supernatural film noir pro wrestling show you never knew you needed! Lucha libre meets magical realism as a death-dealing earthquake guy battles an immortal firebird guy over the affections of a soul-stealing ghost lady! it's better than it sounds, and it's pulpy as hell!

Ahmad identifies as a wrestling fan, but fear not! He hates Ric Flair, and I try to convince him that he doesn't. it's a good time! Also: the importance of conditioning! Mental illness! The films of Patrick Swayze!

Nicole joins me to discuss the weirdly sexual escapades of the man known as Goldust. Other topics of discussion include toxic masculinity, drag culture, and the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Also: a seemingly endless parade of B-plus impressions. YOU DARE NOT MISS IT.
