RonL21 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Jerry's story of Macho Man leaving doesn't line up right. He says he (Jerry) was given the color commentator position randomly at RAW one night when they turned on Nitro and saw Macho on their show. Obviously that's not how it went down as Randy left long before that, was given a decent on-air send-off by Vince, and he was in WCW long before Nitro debuted. Lawler replaced Hennig, basically, after he became active again for Survivor Series 1992. The part that's weird to me is that he spent a huge chunk of 93 announcing Superstars with Macho. Didn't Hennig replace Lawler later on? I went to to Beware of Dog 2, which was also a Superstars taping, and Hennig and Vince were on commentary and Lawler wrestled on Superstars and this was 96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Am I missing anything by passing up on his recent non-wrestling interview pods? I also recommend listening to Austin on the Ask Women podcast. Austin is such a cool dude. I feel like you could hang with that guy and learn the secrets of the world over cheap ass beers. It was really sweet learning that he and his wife met 10 years ago because she's a special Ed teacher and wanted Austin to come in and read to her class. He did and the rest is history. Retiring from wrestling was the best choice ever for that guy and as much as I would love to see him have one more run, I wouldn't want him to sabotage where he's at in life. He's definitely my all-time favorite wrestler and he sounds like he's turned into a really good human being. The Paul Lazenby one is pretty good. Lazenby's done wrestling, MMA and stunt work so they cover a lot (plus Lazenby and Austin are friends). The David Lee Roth one isn't so good. The first half of it is Austin and Mo just shooting the shit and that is entertaining but when they bring in DLR it kinda tapers off. Roth rambles a lot. Haven't listened to the Jay Mohr/Adam Carolla ones yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarr Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 So, what's the deal with Mo? How did he land a spot with Austin?? Is he a PodcastOne guy that is there as a producer for the show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he's the producer. Sometimes other podcasts will have their producers chime in (For Nerdist, it's Katie Levine, for example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Mann Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The smart part is that Gimme Mo basically trails off once it's the guest's time, but he and Austin have a nice little host/sidekick thing going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah during the second Hall interview, Mo chimed in once with a question (and a good one at that) early on then just kept his mouth shut unless Austin brought him in. My favorite moments from the podcast so far, in no particular order: Austin vs The Fly Pussy Snorkel Austin doing the G.L.O.W. rap Scrubber on a stick Austin interviewing himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Mann Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I forget at the beginning of which episode, but "Austin attempts to do a PSA within the 15 second perameter" is spit-soda funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Ray Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'm guessing Mo is a Podcast One producers/engineers because when I listened to the Austin on Ask Woman pod, they had him on too. Jay Mohr's was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah, the Jay Mohr episode was excellent. Mohr does an awesome impression of Dusty. The Adam Corolla one wasn't all that interesting, but it was only because I've heard him tell the story of his life about 10 times now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADCAP Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Wasn't on the Steve Austin Show, but Sunny just did a AOW podcast and jesus fuck, does she come off as really unlikeable. Even Colt sounded uninterested in her. What really annoyed me was how she kept saying "I'm a very smart person". Methinks thou doth protest to much...

Big Fresh Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 So, what's the deal with Mo? How did he land a spot with Austin?? Is he a PodcastOne guy that is there as a producer for the show?He's on every episode of the AskWomen podcast (yeah, I listen to it.... SHUT UP) so I think he's probably involved with all the podcast that PodcastOne does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 edit: Oh man - that Austin shill of Cougarlife.com is the greatest thing I've ever heard That shit is hilarious, if you are ever bored go to one of the more obscure dating sites and check out the women. Farmersonly.com is full of the exact type of women you would think(I thought it was some sort of joke site, but it is 100% legit). I'm tempted to take a look around cougarlife just to see how mortified...or intrigued I'll be. Sometimes I love the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Lawler's story about Kamala and the "banana" made me laugh. This strikes me as something that could only happen in wrestling. I know if someone tried to make me up like some type of African savage and paint what I think is a banana on my stomach, it wouldn't take me a couple a weeks before I confronted him about it. I'd probably punch him in the face as soon as he brought it up. I don't have any clue what happened when they told Virgil he would essentially be Ted Dibiase's slave. I honestly have no idea how they not only have these conversations without feeling like less than a person...but back to cougarlife.com. I'd definitely signup for tryamandingo.com, I'm a complicated man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we were raised differently, but there isn't enough money in this world for you to come up to me and say, "We are going to make you this white dude's slave" and me to agree to that bullshit. And more to my point, name another industry where even suggesting that shit wouldn't get you an ass whooping or a lawsuit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
