As the Collegiate season gets underway just wanted to shoutout my favorite guys to listen to
 

• Cactus Wrestling (really enjoy these guys)
• FRL
• Basch and the brain
• the barnyard wrestling
• quad pod
• BEG sports (can occasionally be a difficult listen if you do not like PSU but they have good guests)

Wrestling Changed My Life

[bnwtwg]

I also very much hate to say that I miss @ILLINIWrestlingBlog and his Illini-centric podcast RIP to an awesome dude

[okokzach]

Good list. I think you meant The Barn Session. They're a good follow on twitter as well.

Let us not forget that Iowa wrestles on a stupid mat!

Not sure if Bloodround is still going but for Bloodround fans one of those guys is part of the Quad pod.

I don’t think BEG as a whole is biased towards PSU, just the dad, the other guy seems to be more of an Iowa guy.  They’re probably my favorite.

Cactus is fine, not my first choice tho. Seems like if your not a high placing AA, they think you’re a disappointment or that you suck lol

Basch is one of the most annoying human beings I've listened to consistently. He's a "look at all these cool Penn State wrestlers I am friends with" guy. He's the dude in the friend group that when you find $5 on the ground, he says "That's cool but one time I found $10." Willie saved his show IMO, and is the only reason I listen to it. If Basch does a solo interview with an athlete or coach, I'm out. 

Actually, @Husker_Du just go back to doing The First Word solo please. That would solve my problems.

I find him much more palatable than many others, and I am not a Penn State fan.

I am, however, a fan of USA wrestling.  Penn State is what is best for USA wrestling right now (15/30 positions for MFS this last season).  His boys are doing great... let him gas them up.

You nailed it. 

[MPhillips]

He's annoying, let him fanboy. The glass of f'ing wine though...

The deplorables over on the NWT forum got your reactions banned in case you're wondering.

Hey now ... don't blame in on all the deplorables ... it was only a couple of em.  

PS:  impressed you are up to date on NWT.

And I'd say it was WKN as the main culprit as his post sure seemed to really get under Bob's skin.

[MPhillips]

WKN, one of the few folks who post over there that has any decorum... 

[bnwtwg]

I know what happened but for others who don't pay attention to that section would you explain what went down
