• Episode 156 “Street Fights, Betrayals, and a Toni Storm Confession”
    Feb 5 2025

    Diana is off this week, leaving Johnny and Gringo Fantastico to sort through the madness that was AEW Collision—and what a show it was. FTR & Cope took the fight to Moxley and the Death Riders in a brutal Mid-South Street Fight, complete with ladders, thumbtacks, and Marina Shafir choking people with a chain. Daniel Garcia narrowly escaped with his TNT Championship, but Shane Taylor Promotions made sure his night wasn’t over. Harley Cameron shocked everyone with a win over Taya Valkyrie, Rush made his presence known in LFI, and Toni Storm delivered a chilling confession aimed straight at Mariah May.

    From wild brawls to unexpected twists, Johnny and Gringo break it all down with their signature blend of insight and sarcasm. Tune in now!

  • Episode 155 – Styles Clash & Dynamite Smash: Ospreay Soars, MJF Scores, and Chaos Reigns
    Feb 1 2025

    AEW Dynamite brought the madness from Huntsville, and The AEW-some Pod is here to sift through the wreckage! Your co-hosts Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times, Tubi), Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In), and Gringo Fantastico (Disasterpiece Theater on Troma) are back with their signature wit, sarcasm, and total disregard for playing nice.

    Will Ospreay and Brian Cage delivered a banger, but the Don Callis Family turned it into a mugging. Jeff Jarrett made the fatal mistake of declining MJF’s offer, which ended with his face eating a Dynamite Diamond Ring. Ricochet and AR Fox put on an aerial clinic—before Swerve Strickland made it deeply personal. Jay White and Wheeler Yuta went to war, and Kenny Omega found himself caught between a chair, a hard place, and Kyle Fletcher’s loyalty. Meanwhile, Mariah May torched Toni Storm with words sharper than any blade, and Mercedes Moné proved why she’s still the boss against Yuka Sakazaki.

    Who was the heel of the week? Who stole the show? And how many times can one episode of Dynamite descend into absolute bedlam? Tune in as Johnny, Diana, and Gringo break it all down with their signature mix of insight, sarcasm, and possibly an f-bomb or two.

    Listen now—because it’s Wednesday night, and you know what that means!
