He's probably mad because Dave talked about how this tough guy shooter lost two backstage fights. One to Sin Cara and the other to a chair.

LOL holy gently caress that's awful. that's like some Rex Kwan Do poo poo.

I always thought it was weird Gotch got fired but English stayed, I guess he had problems with people but maybe he got too much heat for Enzo's botch.

Only way I'd want him in AEW is for Shawn Spears to murder him. In that well-known shoot video he has, he calls Tye Dillinger "reliable" much in the same way as the "good hand" comment so that'd be funny.

All I've heard about Gotch is he's kind of a dick. You never hear stories about "hey Gotch helped me move out of my apartment" or even a silly Gotch story. Dude rubs people that far of a wrong way.

He also compares Tye to Curt Hennig and Rick Rude so it’s mixed messaging at best.

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Simon Gotch is terrible and resentful over the fact that his only moment of notoriety involves Enzo, yet even loving ENZO of all people is doing better than him these days. He sucks and should retire.

The Pacific Rim interview with Debbie Malenko is great. Go listen.

The Fumi and Dave show on Harley Race has audio quality so bad I don't think I could replicate it if I tried. Worth listening to though.

Is 83 Weeks any good? I haven't listened to too many of the Conrad-based podcasts but i started reading Death of WCW and it's got me sort of interested in that whole period. Are there good backstage stories or is it just Eric blaming everybody else? Any standout eps to start with?

Yeah I really enjoyed both, and even though the Harley stories are great I really enjoyed when they went off on tangents about the likes of Nick Bockwinkel and Ric Flair.

It’s Eric yelling about Dave and being like “well that’s not how it happened/I was forced into a corner and this was the best option left” from what I have gathered

I don't listen to it close to weekly, and a lot of what's been said here has been valid, but Bischoff does provide some useful information when he gets granular. Basically, if you're interested, look up reviews for the individual episodes and listen to the ones that are actually supposed to be good.

I listen to it semi-regularly. There's definitely a lot of anti-Meltzer talk on Bischoff's part but when they talk about stuff that's more historical or character focused: it's good.

In particular, the Jericho wcw-overview episode was great, as was Bischoff preWCW. The South Korea episode had a few new stories if you had already read about that in Bischoff's book.

Anyone having file issues recent Pacific Rim and maybe a Garrett WOR? I've noticed it more with Pacific Rim where you download a show and it says 30 minutes or so and then the file is actually much larger. It plays fine but you can't skip around in it.

In my experience, that's usually the result of the MP3 being encoded as variable bitrate instead of constant bitrate. It SHOULDN'T be an issue, as it's been part of the MP3 spec for a long time, but for whatever reason, it throws a bunch of podcast apps for a loop.
