Lifelong wrestling fan, Jon, and recent convert, Cait, explore everything weird, epic, and awful about the world's most-important-least-important thing: professional wrestling, dude.

And let tell me you something, Jack, they don't get bogged down in kayfabe like a couple of jabroni marks. This show tackles the strategies behind the booking, if they're actually best for business, and most importantly, if it works for us, brother!

  • 8. Royal Rumble Preview and We Play a New Game Called More Over
    Jan 30 2026

    Jon and Cait are back to discuss the biggest developments in 2026 thus far, most notably the exciting top title changes and the baffling second season of WWE Unreal.

    They also share their most anticipated Royal Rumble returns, then attempt to quantify exactly how "over" WWE's top (or, at least, most pushed) talent actually are.

    This episode is considered a season debut, but they're in mid-season form. One of the best, most insightful editions to date.
