Episode 164 of the 1973 Podcast is packed with action, nostalgia, and just the right amount of conspiracy. Buckle up because this one goes everywhere. We kick things off with “One Watch, Everybody Knows the Rules”, where this week’s pick is the high-octane action flick Shih Tzu. Does it deliver the explosions, ridiculous moments, and classic action movie energy we were hoping for? Or does it end up in the bargain-bin of action history? The guys break it all down. Next, we jump into wrestling talk as the road to WrestleMania heats up. The discussion turns into a full-on fantasy booking battle: what if the champion from World Championship Wrestling faced the champion from World Wrestling Federation every single year from 1985 to 2001? Hogan vs. Flair? Bret vs. Sting? Austin vs. Goldberg? The possibilities get wild as we imagine dream matches that could have changed wrestling history. From there, we slide into some sports talk, covering the latest headlines, opinions, and debates from the sports world. Finally, it’s time for everyone’s favorite segment: The Tinfoil Hat 🛸. This week we ask a question you probably haven’t thought about in years: Whatever happened to blimps? At one time they were everywhere—hovering over stadiums, events, and cities. Now they’ve practically vanished. Did technology replace them… or is there something more mysterious going on with the disappearance of airships? It’s movies, wrestling history, sports talk, and conspiracy theories all rolled into one episode. 🎧 Episode 164 of the 1973 Podcast — where the conversations are unpredictable and the tinfoil hats are always within reach.

Episode 154 – Soul Man, Saturday Night’s Main Event & Playoff Pressure The boys are back with another loaded episode of the 1973 Podcast. This week, we rewind to 1986 and put Soul Man under the microscope for our latest One Watch Everybody Knows the Rules movie review—does it hold up, or should it stay in the VHS era? From there, we fire up the time machine and head straight into Saturday Night’s Main Event, breaking down the spectacle, the stories, and what made it such a cornerstone of wrestling history. On the gridiron, it’s playoff time.
