Strange Wolves MMA Podcast

Miscellaneous


Vinny, John and Marcus are joined by former podcast regular, Chris "Low T" Flynn, after a lengthy absence. Marcus' open song goes to a lot of places it probably shouldn't, but ends with a touching tale of a love that can never be. A quick foray into ASMR take a very sudden left turn into depravity. Vinny's double-life is exposed. Obviously he denies it, but he would, wouldn't he? Listeners questions lead to a segue about Hulk Hogan and Bubba the Love Sponge. Chris does his best not to break down while discussing the rumours of his chemical deficiencies. There are support groups, Chris. The Top 3 this month seems simple enough: top 3 favourite fighters for each member of the podcast. John answer with an entire organisation, Chris wanders off talking about UFC 1, Vinny brings up Yoel Romero's recent court case victory. Somehow they eventually only give two answers each, making it either a top 2 or a top 8, but definitely not a top 3. Maybe it's Chris' influence, but there seems to be an awful lot of Mixed Martial Arts chat this month, which you could argue makes sense for an MMA podcast. I guess. UFC, One FC, Bellator all get a mention. Seriously, there's a good hour in the middle that's pretty much all MMA. Well, MMA and steroids. You wouldn't get this carry-on with Tom "Baby Daddy" Hogan. Paddy Holohan's recently election win gets things back off topic, as a tenuous link to the Maria Bailey swing insurance scandal. John's own political past is dredged up, showing us the great leader / fearsome dictator the country lost with his retirement from public office. There's more MMA talk after that, in an unprecedented podcast event. I mean, surely this will never catch on? It doesn't last long, turning into a music discussion, ranging from AC/DC to Kendrick Lamar. Enjoyment of rap is split along generational lines: Marcus and Chris (20s) are fans, John and Vinny (60s?) are not. Black Metal is for everyone though. Somehow after all that, there's room for a review of early 80s non-classic 'The Octagon' starring Chuck Norris. Sounds shite, to be honest. Marcus reckons he could take the Rock in a fight. Can someone out there make that happen? Vinny finishes thing off with a rap that proves that maybe occasionally editing stuff out might be a good thing. Orange.
