Call it annoying if you want. The only one I put on the same level, right now mind you, is Bloodround. Nobody else has had as consistently good of a product with as high level of interviews from USA wrestling blood. You can be annoyed. It doesn't matter that you are annoyed. I’ll offer up The Athletor podcast with Mike Mal on Spotify. Really like his interview style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That podcast is not entertaining, it is unlistenable. Annoying on so many levels. PSU homerism, religious rhetoric, Justin talking when he should be listening, interjecting his opinions when unnecessary, talk of building brands/marketing, etc., etc... I've tried to listen numerous times due to the guests he has but have only been able to make it through a couple complete episodes.

Le duke Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 If you listen to the show, Basch does this thing where, after the guest says something of interest, he’ll say, “That’s awesome.” Or, “That’s great.”No follow up. No additional questions. It’s really weird. He did this multiple times during the most recent episode with Wyatt Hendrickson.If I’m engaged in conversation with someone and they say something like that to me, that would be a sign that they aren’t actually listening to me.

He actually has some chemistry and rapport with him and it sounds like an actual conversation as opposed to a series of questions.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woke up with a nightmare and read this, and it kind of scared me, even though I know it's essentially not true. By the way, I loved the photo of Izzy and the Brain at the ILLINOIS Matmen Open. LOL! The sunglasses. Great tournament, and this made for a wild backstory! I guess it must have hurt like hell, but ya gotta laugh about it now. Willie was like the anti-Cyclops from the X-Men. As for my favorite podcasts, why, I like Wrestling Changed My Life, the Intermat features, Fivepointmove, ILLINOISMatmen, although mostly it depends on who's going to be interviewed. When big tournaments and the NCAA are being handicapped, those are good shows as well, and then there's this guy with his minute and a half broadcasts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like him with Willie or Cenzo outside of the PSU homerism though, but yeah, not crazy about the interviews I agree. My favorite episode might be the one entirely focused on Real Woods transferring to Iowa after allegedly receiving an offer to go to PSU. Basch sounded angry and disgusted. I'm pretty sure Cenzo's voice cracked a couple times, as he was coaching Stanford. Real had already graduated from Stanford and was offered a "bag." Then the story shifted and PSU was supposedly never in the running. Strangely there were never any similar shows angry about Kerk, Truax, Max Dean, Nagao, etc. This is part of the reason why I would think Basch is what Brands calls a "paid hater" and Mineo isn't even on his radar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basch is a paid hater, he just isn't paid by PSU. The irony of the free market continues to confound Brands. 1 i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I don’t think Minnow was who he was referring to as a “paid hater,” but if Minnow wasn’t on Brands’ radar before, I’m guessing he got on it with his tweets about the gambling suspensions… Edit: I actually think he was referring to Willie, but just speculation. I agree the Woods transferring episode was a little cringe but I wouldn’t really call Basch a “hater” overall, more just a PSU lover.

Husker_Du Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 it's not speculation. Tom Brands yelled at me in front of ... idk hundreds of people at the US Open saying 'I know Penn State pays you to hate on us. I know they're paying you. how much do we have to pay you.' utterly ridiculous and childish. 3 TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
