Phil Schneider is a widely respected wrestling historian. Nick Bond is a useful idiot.

And at least once (sometimes as many as twice!) a month, they get together to talk about professional wrestling the way it was meant to be discussed: each picking a match from wrestling history, presumably as a way to work out feelings about their childhood and the never-ending creep of time. Or, like, talk about how much fun it is to see people beat each other up.

For their fourth episode, Phil and Nick two of their favorite matches:

For Nick, it's Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard against the Road Warriors at Starrcade '87 and from Phil Los Brazos vs. Super Astro/El Dandy/Popitekus (Arena Coliseo, 5/3/1991) .

Be sure to check out our Patreon for Phil's weekly 3-Count columns and Nick's mediocre drawings of both incredibly famous wrestlers and those you (and he) may have heard of in passing. And if you, for whatever reason, LIKE Nick's mediocre drawings, you can purchase some (in sticker form) on our Etsy shop.
