Sounds awesome, Chris!

 

EDIT: Also, is that old Memphis show with Schneider that is listed on that Podbean still exist somewhere? Would like to hear it.

 

Here's a link to the episode: http://www.sendspace.com/file/nl2mn9

Apologies it's not available to play online.

 

Thanks!

 

No worries. I'm old school and download things and add them to my iPod, anyhow.

Bix & I did a special episode on Monday after the WWE Network Subscriber Numbers were announced: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/indeedwrestling/2014/04/07/wrestlenomics-radio--wwe-network-subscribers-announced ( 1 hour )

 

Rich (from Voices of Wrestling) along with Tom Green, Joe Lanza and Bix all appeared on last week's show: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/indeedwrestling/2014/04/05/wrestlenomics-radio--with-voices-of-wrestling-rich-kraetsch (2 hours)

 

This week will be historian & pro-wrestler Matt Farmer! We'll obviously have a ton to discuss with Wrestlemania, an eventful Raw, the death of the Ultimate Warrior, WWE Network subscriber numbers and plenty of pro-wrestling history. Wrestlenomics Radio will be live on Saturday Afternoon: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/indeedwrestling/2014/04/12/wrestlenomics-radio-w-matt-farmer

 

I also updated the archives with the lost Bix/UW lawsuit episode and episode 1 where I interviewed Matthew Timmons of Kayfabermetrics.

Is this going to be on Voices of Wrestling? I only ask as I can access them during the day and listen off the power press player they use (we use the same).

Don't think so. At least, that wasn't something I discussed with VOW. They helped me out big time when I started because I didn't have a host, but I haven't been throwing my content up there since I started on BlogTalkRadio. VOW stuff actually sounds good; I'm just enjoying my okay sound quality plus live caller dynamic!

I had a great two-hour show on Saturday talking about the new WWE TV deal, talking independent talent with Rich from Voices of Wrestling and doing some wrestlenomics on the "first five televised WWF" matches for wrestlers: http://placetobenation.com/wrestlenomics-radio-wwes-brand-new-tv-deal/

 

The previous week I did a solo podcast (1 hour) covering the anticipation leading up to the WWE TV deal: http://placetobenation.com/wrestlenomics-radio-12-wwe-q1-financials-and-more/

 

Also, #wrestlenomics radio is proud to now be part of the Place to be Nation!

* Talked about the WWE Conference call, the art of negotiation and legacy of Vince McMahon Carny Wrestling Public Trader Company CEO.

* We listen to Bo Dallas teach us how to Bo-lieve in ourselves.

* Talked with DezWalker all about his mmadraws.com website and methodology including surprise draws, biggest hits & misses and how to turn TV ratings into PPV buys.

& Great segment discussing Best Cameos in TV & Movies including Hulk Hogan cutting a promo on Muppets, Savage vs a Hamster, Boy Meets World logic and why the Bushwhackers hates Cops.

* Some final Q&A about WWE Financials - particularly around WWE Network Global Demand and possible Network price adjustments.

I had a great show last week where I talked with Brendan Quinn who wrote his detailed thesis on UFC Buys and the impact of WWE, stardoms and lots of other variables.

 

http://www.blogtalkradio.com/indeedwrestling/2014/06/07/wrestlenomics-radio--researching-follies

 

You can read his paper here: http://www.tinyurl.com/ufcbuysthesis

 

Plus there's chatter about stagnant WWE attendance, options for monetizing WWE Network and state of stars vs draws. Enjoy! It was a solid two hours!

Wrestlenomics Radio - Dummies Guide to G1


Rich from voicesofwrestling.com joins the show to preview the upcoming New Japan G1 Climax tournament and explain why Mookie's statistics-driven model is complete bunk. Plus comparing ratings systems (Meltzer vs Keller), ideas to help fix the WWE Network and perhaps a look ahead at the Battleground "PPV"!

in Wrestling





Wrestlenomics Radio - 7/27/2014 - with Joe Lanza (and guest star Joe Gagne!)


We keep the G1 training moving along with the other half of Voices of Wrestling power team - Mr Joe Lanza! We talk worldwide indy wrestling, what to do with those old VHS tapes (Cop Squad!), lots of G1 predictions and thoughts (including why the guru of grappling couldn't even finish his pick 'em bracket), the state of WWE(What do with Brock? Rusev? Titus!) and status updates on TNA/ROH. I talk a lot about WWE Q2 conference call (including a list of questions worth asking McMahon/Barrios) and we lament the sad state of paying attention to details of WWE Network old footage. There's a SURPRISE guest run-in from Mr. Joe Gagne talking G1 (and more) and Mookie's insane lists (Lucha 1000! Joshi 100! Indy NA 325!) gets some validation. Does God love workrate? We explore.


This was a terrific sunday treat.

I've been slow to put up a post-Q2 results show but we're recording one tomorrow.




I'll have Aaron Taube, who is an excellent reporter for Business Insider as a guest. We'll talk about the WWE's Q2 results, their cost-cutting measures, the rush for a global WWE Network launch, surprises on the WWE subscription numbers, the Needham & Company Fireside Chat with HHH/Steph/Barrios and lots more.




Feel free to join us during the second half of the show when we'll do questions (646) 478-3334

It's a fun show talking about lots of different legal angles.
