how delusional is Top Dolla? he talks about these "massive names in music" as a music head I've never heard of. He's basically constantly saying "I'm better than everyone else on earth but I'm not arrogant" oxymoronic much?! Then he claims Hit Row never got the mic'? All three of them walked to the ring with mic's in their hands attempting very poorly to rap, he's so full of shit it's unreal 😂

I stopped listening to this as got sick of the adds. when it started it was amazing and a great podcast. now you have to skip all the adds of Conrad's company. I tried listening again yesterday and still the same. all the adds take away from the enjoy of listening to Eric tell stories and learning anything

Another great episode with Eric taking a dump on Meltzer. 5 stars, would have been more with a few flips in the Tokyo Dome.

I don't understand why when Eric posts or comments on something in RESPONSE to someone calling out WCW for various reasons, he gets crucified for it. Of course he would feel the need to take up for the company he revolutionized as well as take for a man, in Ted Turner, who allowed Eric to change the wrestling business forever. I don't understand why AEW feels the need to mention WCW anyway. I think they have enough to worry about with their current product and that should be their focus. Let's not act like Eric is going around picking fights for the sake of controversy, he has merely responded to their comments each time and I don't feel he should be berated in doing so.
