Longtime listeners won't be surprised by the length of our Young Bucks segment (came in at a cool nineteen minutes) but we were truly delighted by everything they did this week and literally couldn't help ourselves. We also got into it about the Sad Facepaint Clowns and debated why the Pinnacle doesn't just unionize against MJF. Plus, we vote on what was the most unacceptable thing commentary said this week, and the contenders were strong! Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tunnel-t...

In our penultimate episode of the year, we discuss whether 60 minutes of wrestling without a winner is legal (Hangman vs Danielson), celebrate a women's trio's match (Nyla/Penelope/The Bunny vs Tay/Anna Jay/Ruby Soho) that tested the muscle memory of commentators who are used to talking about men, and finally get to talk about Hook's debut! Plus a special segment about the language of wrestling commentary, and? Much more. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tunnel-talk/donations Adve...

As always, this pod is doing GREAT and has NO problems. Anne reports back from her little trip to the world of indie wrestling, which she loved and she vows to return. We're thrilled to expand our horizons out in that direction! Back on our home turf, we watched everyone visit the Bizarro World of Long Island where heels were faces, faces were heels, and nobody knew what the hell Dante Martin was up to. And we all lost our minds for the Best Bucks feud featuring the long awaited and greatly enjo...

This week, the gang covers the nontraditional commentary team on Dynamite (including Hangman during Danielson vs Alan Angels and MJF during Punk vs Moriarty). And the even less traditional commentary of Adam Cole (did not do any commentary). Plus last Friday’s tag team matchup of Adam Cole & Bobby Fish vs OC & Wheeler Yuta, and the normal things Jericho said on commentary there. Promos: the one we need from Dante Martin, and the one we got from Miro! Also: Eddie Kingston vs Daniel Garcia...

In this post-Thanksgiving episode, Lea gets 2 pm drunk on Brandi Rhodes's vanity wine, which Lea tells us is "good" but is unable to describe further. Brandi, sponsor us! We also debut the Teacher's Pet of the Week award, which MJF and CM Punk took easily with their 30 minute deep psychological dive of a promo -- why can't the rest of you be more like Very Good Boys MJF and CM Punk??? We also contemplate profound philosophical questions, such as, "Is a man not his own boy?" and "If JR were asked...

It's our post-Full Gear pod! Allie, in her capacity as an Unaccompanied Woman Attendee, reports back on everything she saw, heard and experienced. Plus, we review how we did at predicting the Full Gear outcomes, simp over our beautiful cowboy hunk champion, and as always, praise our teacher's pet Young Bucks for doing the best job at carrying a story. This week was long and we had a LOT to cover, but don't you worry—we got into all of it in the strange, disturbing and probably factually incorrec...

Eddie Kingston brings a LOT to the table this week, including a very juicy CM Punk feud and a Players’ Tribune article that made us all cry. Daddy Tony punished The Acclaimed with a Bryan Danielson fight, and also Anthony Bowens fought Jungle Boy on Dynamite, and we get to have a (body) hair talk segment about that last part. Plus: our Young Bucks, earning our praise at every turn; and we visit Best Friends world for, most importantly, whatever is happening between Kris Statlander and Ruby Soho,...

We have a lot to get through this week, starting with our best wishes to Jon Moxley and his family which are MUCH more important than our extreme disappointment about missing out on his match with Orange Cassidy and our dubious feelings about the reshuffling of feuds and storylines... again, all our good thoughts go out to Mox. We also get into Miro's tender caresses, whether CM Punk should go heel, Matt Jackson disappointing everyone by wearing a shapeless tan jumpsuit, what characters in Romeo...

Actually Allie's at peace with what's going on with her. It's called Self Actualization, and she's been fine the whole time. Plus—we talk about the reportage fr...

There was no Dynamite this week, but don’t worry, we found plenty to talk about! Maybe too much… Anyway, we cover a Punk/Garcia match, The Acclaimed/Lucha Brothers, Jade/Skye Blue, Brian Cage/Ricky Starks, BTE, and much more. And then Tony Khan inadvertently lets us in on match planning, OR is purposefully misleading us, so there’s a (potentially) spoiler-filled discussion of the Full Gear matches, which we’ll warn you about when we get to.

Hangman's back, baybee, and we're the happiest little clams you've ever met. We also tackle such important questions as: Is Bryan Danielson a changeling or just a timetraveler from the 1927 Olympics? Why is Jade Cargill a thing and who is she blackmailing? What female should win the TBS "Very Funny" Wrestling Championship Belt for Girls? All that plus Dante Martin's Final Girl energy, Daniel Garcia as Sid from Toy Story, and Bobby Fish, our very own small town carnival barker. Support this podca...

Once again, the problem of the Wet Men plagues and occupies us. They're TOO wet, and it's NOT right!

This week we discuss: panty boys, puppy-body boys, and who's cute under their mask versus who maybe should keep that little mask on. That's right, even though AEW isn't giving us enough time to develop our takes, we still manage to say a lot of very mean things about men's bodies and faces. And we have a lot of questions: What DID Kenny Omega and Bryan Danielson do that made their match so effing good? Is what women want just Ruby Soho and Britt Baker replaying the dynamics from Empire Records? ...

In our pre-All Out episode, Brandon Cutler gets dominated and Matt Jackson suffers a real-life loss. CM Punk continues to delight us, this time with Darby, and we try to get to the bottom of the Jungle Express–Best Friends alliance. Yes, there's Hair Talk!

Oh, you thought we'd have the latest in CM Punk news? Well, this interview was recorded in the first half of July, so enjoy the part where a younger, more innocent Anne barely knows who CM Punk is.

Guys, we feel better this week! But Chris Jericho sure doesn’t—the man is looking rough. But Mox continues to be the happiest crowd-loving boy and he was finally reunited with his little Hot Topic Teen Son, a pairing we haven’t seen in a hot minute. You couldn’t tell from Darby’s face, but we think he LOVED being surrounded by His Three Dads. Plus, we actually give props to AEW this week—we LOVE what’s going on in the women’s division lately!

We were personally going through it this week, but not as much as Hangman was. We got into it about the Elite’s Space Jam cosplay, philosophize in all seriousness over the true meaning of propwork and get ourselves so worked up about the possibility of Britt’s new minion.

After technical difficulties last week, we're back and ready to get into Chris Jericho's distressing facepaint, the troubling trend of Disney adults at AEW, how much the Young Bucks may be spending on their outfits, and whether the women's division is being oppressed by our corporate overlords, Turner Network Television. Plus, we address JR's concerns about the exact relationship between Orange Cassidy and Wheeler Yuta, and in HAIR TALK, should Kenny Omega learn to scrunch out the crunch? (Yes.)...

AEW overstimulated us this week with a Hangman/Kenny Omega face-off followed by a juicy therapy session for Darby Allin and Ethan Page. And then we overstimulated ourselves buying All Out tickets! But don't worry, of course we made time in this episode for several huge stories around the world of AEW hair, including how much of it is on the Young Bucks' faces, how little of it is on Mox's head, and how to describe the style of it that Marcus Kross is wearing.
