I was driving at the time and nearly crashed.

The song goes:
"... And I went up the river, something something and killed five hundred-(edit)"
Bryan and Vinny: "Woooooaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!"

And it was one of the funniest things I have ever heard. It's great because they edited it out, but the rhyme is with "ri-ver" so there is only one thing it could be. And their reactions are priceless.

Does anyone remember which edition of the show this was on?

EDIT: April 15th

The thing that shocked me most about Bryan's wrestling bubble is that when Judas and Brutus are mentioned in the context of treachery, he immediately thinks of Brutus Beefcake rather than the guy who killed Caesar

I finally got around to listening to the Batista interview, and man he sounds like such a humble, mellow guy. I always thought he was meant to be a dick but this interview really changed my impression of him. Strangely enough that's exactly the opposite of what happened when I read Jericho's book

Oh hey, confirmation from Formerly Creative that in fact the upper echelon DIDN'T like Punk and they DID want to push Hardcore Holly over Punk when they had Holly beat Punk on ECW. Maybe that will end some stupid arguments that have persisted.

And that HHH, HBK, and Arn didn't like his work when he debuted. I wonder how long HHH took to go from that to wanting to put him over at Survivor Series

EDIT: interesting that it was ultimately HBK sticking up for him that turned him around

Man, I love Colt in the ring, and I love the guests he has on, but I just can't stand the way he talks on his podcast. He sounds like an obnoxious morning radio DJ, and if he uses that "live from the studio... apartment!!" line again I'm going to cry

Sometimes I really hate Bryan, mostly when he starts saying something really really dumb, gets called on it, and instead of realising his mistake and backing off he just. keeps. going.

Then he comes up with the idea of having Kane kill Abe(l) Washington after Eve gives Adam (Copeland) an apple she stole from Carlito after being tempted by Jake the Snake and I love him all over again.

The loving argument between loving Todd Martin and Bryan loving Alvarez about loving callouts in the UFC made me want to never listen to either of them a-loving-gain. Jesus Christ, those two are the worst two personalities to have together on a show because neither are able to back down from an argument. Repeating trhe same points over and over with increasing volume does not make for good listening.

Oh oops, yeah sorry, I really should have linked the vid myself. He starts sounding like some Alex Jones-esque ranter with his "there more going on than you know, this goes all the way to the top!" spiel. He actually questions how Dave could possibly be getting ratings numbers, as if they aren't publicly available. Insane.

Bryan interviewing people about the paranormal brings to mind a lot of what I liked about Art Bell as a host, he doesn't judge, he doesn't mock, but he doesn't go along with everything either. He just lets them talk and asks them to elaborate on possibly interesting topics. Hes the same way with special guests on F4D and WOR too. As bad as he sometimes is as an analyst or in conversation with Dave, Lance, and Todd, he's a pretty damned good interviewer

He did a really great job of baiting Larry too. Bryan hasn't done a lot of interviews lately but this was a good reminder that he's become a great interviewer.

He really has. I find that my favourite shows are when he steps back a bit and acts as a host with Dave or Lance answering questions and providing analysis. It's a great dynamic when it works

But this also leads to more of his worst antics, mainly, someone else (Todd, Dave, Lance) making a good point, then Bryan will detour the conversation about how he has this brilliant idea/analysis which is just a rephrasing of what the other person just said. That has to drive those guys nuts.

Sure, which is why I said it's better when he sits back and asks questions/follow-ups rather than trying to provide analysis himself
