About this episode
Josh and Vince explore the allure of Professional Wrestling, discussing various aspects of wrestling culture and their personal experiences.
Poddy-Slam! 🛎️ In this episode of Memory Foam: Wrestling with Pro Wrestling , Josh and Vince step into the ring to try and pin down the allure of Professional Wrestling. First things first, Josh asks Vince, the reigning champ of wrestling love, the timeless question: “Do you still watch wrestling?” (Spoiler: Vince says “no”… then immediately drops a watchlist longer than a WrestleMania runtime.) The Tag Team duo also cover hard-hitting topics such as: Recap culture : why Vince prefers breakdowns, “Ups & Downs,” and behind-the-scenes lore over week-to-week shows WWE vs AEW (and what’s tempting about that AEW back catalog) The price-gouge pile-driver of modern streaming packages The eternal debate: **“fake” vs “scripted” vs “these people are still getting wrecked” Why wrestling is basically SNL + athletics … and why the “corny” stuff is part of the charm A detour into how Dragon Ball Z is similar to Pro Wrestling And to close it out, there’s a listener challenge: you pick the sports team Vince has to follow (two games… maybe), and in exchange Josh will watch two of the greatest wrestling PPVs of all time. Deal’s on the table. Bring your best suggestions. 🎧 Press play if you…
