It seems to work with anything that just lets you plug in a URL. Overcast has a separate section to input passwords for feeds and I didn’t need to use it since it was included in the URL.

It’s been a long loving time but didn’t the DDP/Undertaker thing predate Benoit by a few years? If so it seems like it’s an unfortunate but otherwise unremarkable coincidence rather than the world’s most thoughtless and disgusting reference.

Memnaelar posted:So, how's the value of a WON/F4W subscription? I've been considering subscribing for a few months as I enjoy all of the free clips on Youtube, but I'm not sure if the additional content is worthwhile given the high volume of what's already out there for free. Their site also does a piss-poor job of selling the product as, well, it looks like a site I could have tossed together 15 or 20 years ago. The subscription page doesn't even tout the perks - it just gives you the lump-sum payout to subscribe which, frankly, is a lot to pay sight unseen. I subscribed finally this year because WFH expanded my need for podcast hours in the day and I’ve enjoyed it so much I’m keeping it even when I go back to the office. WOR and WOL alone are worth it imho. If you’re not a podcast person though don’t bother.

Memnaelar posted:I'm definitely a podcast guy - almost too many between various forms of entertainment and sports, but I'm finding some of my interest in the NBA and movie podcasts I listen to winding down a bit recently and am thinking I wouldn't mind replacing those minutes with listening to Bryan and Dave banter at each other, which Youtube has shown me is a pretty enjoyable thing. Mostly just interested for AEW content but I've dug a few of the WWE rewatch segments besides. AEW content is the stuff I pay most attention to since I’m watching that weekly but Bryan getting angry about how lovely WWE is always makes listening to that part of the recap worth it too. Just sub for one month I guess and see how you like it. WOR, WOL and FFD whenever they have Lance Storm on are my must-listens and I dip in and out of other stuff if the description looks interesting. Also worth noting is there’s a tool somewhere ITT that will generate an RSS URL for you to put into a podcast app instead of having to play them on the website like some kind of rear end in a top hat.

You’d also have a ton of people thinking the evacuation notice was a bit and refusing to budge because who doesn’t want to wait and see the cool explosion they were essentially promised.

Gonzo McFee posted:I always enjoyed that Vince used to always tell Meltzer that WCW were ruining the Giant and that only Vince knew how to book giants and if Vince ever got his hands on him he'd be a mega star and then when he finally got the Giant he debuted by throwing Austin out of a cage and accidentally giving Austin the victory like a dipshit. This was actually cool as gently caress though, because Austin getting one over on Vince any way he could through increasingly inventive means was basically the only reason to watch for lengthy periods of the attitude era.

HPJoker posted:Bryan’s insistence on reviewing stuff only on the Network has be dropping B&V until further notice. There’s so much great poo poo on the NIPW archives, or on YouTube, or on DDT’s service. A minuscule amount of people actually keep up with the retro content as they’re going along. Just talk about classic All Japan. Eh, people are more familiar with retro stuff from the network than they are with any of the other stuff and I’d bet a ton more people listen to it for the nostalgia hit and a modern lens on things they already know/might be reminded of than listen to it because they really give a poo poo what was happening on those old shows. FWIW I usually just listen to granny’s segments because they’re always funny and then dump the rest of the episode because I don’t give a poo poo either.

It sounded like this to me, he goes on to say he expected the line in the promo to be paid off somehow in a set up for the baby face to get one over on the heel by outsmarting them in some way but the heels just drove off. Probably more of a speaking without fully forming the thought you’re trying to convey moment than a Racist Dave Meltzer moment but not a great look either way.

Yeah on WOR if I remember rightly Dave literally said it couldn’t be called a “great” documentary because it completely glossed past all of Austin’s legal troubles, so it’s not like they just gave it a pass.

a cyborg mug posted:It's only kind of vaguely related but I think it's a bit funny when Meltzer reports something that he heard from a source and then the people in question reply all "wow Meltzer at it again spreading lies about me". Ok, well, why don't you tell him the real story, then? Then he doesn't have to rely on second-hand information that might be incorrect. Meltzer does tend to admit he's wrong when he's proven to be wrong (unless I'm wrong about that lol). Why does this business have to be so secretive all the time Because the real story might be none of his business, so he’s not owed it and she doesn’t have to say anything to anybody she doesn’t want to. Just because you report in a field doesn’t mean you’re automatically entitled to every piece of information about the private lives of everyone in that field, particularly when they’re ultimately nothing more than gossip-rag tier mundanities.

I very very rarely listen to WOR without Bryan and only then if the blurb for the episode suggests Dave going to talk about something I really want to know about, and I guess that habit will continue. If Bryan had his own network for audio only feeds of WOL/FFD/B&V stuff I’d switch.

Hasn’t Bea Priestley just signed/rumoured to have signed? Makes sense he’d want out of Japan to follow her in that case. Also there’s no way in hell WWE lets/wants him to work his neck destroying style so it might add a few years to his career.

Then he did an angle in the ring, threw the best worked punches and kicks I've seen in person and did his song a second time. He came and did a “general manager for the night” gimmick at my local indie, and ended the show by breaking a guitar over the heel’s head and singing his song. Jeff Jarrett was always good.
