Steven Louis Lerner (@SLLCoolJ) and Joseph Blair (@ParaPunk_2020) have finally recovered enough from the SCI experience to record another episode of this show....which inexplicably stopped recording in the middle of our eulogy for Villano III. But that still gives us plenty of time to keep my promise to TomK to review KEITA in THE House vs. SUrvival Tobita, marvel at the violence of Necro Butcher vs. Yoshiaki Yago, marvel at the joyous commentary stylings of Eddie Kingston, be awestruck at the sheer awfulness of AWA Supreme, ponder whether Kairi Sane is a pirate or just a yachting enthusiast, dig Keiji Mutoh swaggerjacking Jinsei Shinzaki, dig Kaz Hayashi swaggerjacking Kieji Mutoh, and say at least a few things about Villano III vs. Atlantis before the episode just kind of ends.
With all the scheduling and technical issues finally ironed out, Joseph Blair (@ParaPunk_2020) and my homeboy Chris spend nearly four hours eulogizing one of the greatest and most awe-inspiring figures in wrestling history, the one and only Vader. Join us, won't you?
So after a million attempts and a billion technical difficulties, I was able to salvage this segment of Episode 3 of the House Party, wherein my special guest Joseph Blair (@ParaPunk_2020) and I talk about the man, the myth, the legend, Keita in The House. Enjoy!
I've done better things, but I'm glad this exists. I'll have more substantial things in store in the weeks and months to come, but for now, I'm just glad to have been willing to put myself out there, regardless of how exciting the output was, and how much of my planned lineup I was able to cover before things went haywire in my building. If you're curious, there's the link, and here's what I talked about:
Man, I just let this place go, didn't I? Well, no time to dwell on the past. Granted, I'm good at dwelling on things, but it's kind of a problem for me. Too much rumination, and I end up not doing the things I want to do. Things like LIVE PODCASTING, BAY-BAY! Oh, sure, I'm kinda still overthinking it. When I have to post an explainer to people who might want to tune in and/or participate, it's usually a bad sign. But I'm used to bad signs, so I'm gonna blow past this one and do it anyway.
So Tuesday at 9:00, I'm basically gonna watch and talk about some of that professional wrestling (and whatever else spins off of that discussion) with my dear, close personal friend "Too Good For Twitter" Chris. If you want to join in, hit me in the DMs at @SLLCoolJ and I'll let you know how. If not, you've already succeeded!
But if you want to talk about the matches, you should probably know what they are so you can watch them and actually know what you're talking about when the show happens. And here's what I've got picked out for this episode:
The All-Request is once again dragged out of the mothballs and retrofitted into a podcast! Join me and my guests Emil Jay (@TheEmilJay) and good ol' Sam (@concrete1992) on the inaugural voyage through four matches running the gamut of what wrestling can be. Join us as we explore Emil's burning hatred of Monterrey TV buffoon Snoopy, our collective bafflement over Konan Big, Tommy Rich throwin' hands (but not lashes), star rating ridiculousness, the bottom shelf talents of Steel Gladiator, CCW's seedy ring announcer, ethnic headstrikes, an all-time Flair performance, an all-time Heenan performance, the all-time Rumble entrance, the all-time Rumble facial expression, the all-time Slaughter bump, Boss Man flying across the ring, the weirdness of battle royale selling, Jake Roberts being awesome, Slammin' Ladies, the decline and fall of Saturday morning and weekday afternoon cartoons, and the horrible truth about alleged babyface Hulk Hogan. The banter is fierce. The takes are hot. Sam says the m-word. It's everything you ever dreamed of!
Featuring...
Hator, Jerry, Mario Bezares, Snoopy, Super Parka, Vudu vs Konnan Big
The Nightmares vs. Tommy & Johnny Rich (Loser Gets 20 Lashes)
