John on his phone being on a different sound level as Wai sounded like an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force where Carl is an actual human compared to Wai as FryLock in his animated version

Lol, yes. I honestly gave up on RASD/DS this week after a few minutes, it hurt my sensitive ears

I heard the difference, but stuff like that doesn’t bug me unless I have to keep messing with the volume, which wasn’t the case here. Thank you guys for still finding a way to get the show done.

If you’re looking to fill a Wednesday morning podcast void, Rob Bartlett was on Sean Mooney’s podcast this week :rofl:

Can anyone tell me why KO is using the stunner now? Is the pop up powerbomb what hurt him in the first place? I guess I don’t follow kayfabe as much as I need to.

Backup onsite.
Backup off-site.

Lesson learned, I’m sure.
