Chris (AKA "Big Meaty Cool") & Danny (AKA "Da Meat Guy") invite you to explore the (sometimes) musty annals of Professional Wrestling. Be it the unseen/forgotten events, the obscure midcarders, forgotten promotions or derided concepts, we seek to consider the question: "Is one man's poison another man's meat?" Please follow the lads on Twitter: @onemansmeatpod
What happens when a noted exploitation director and a script-writer with a resume longer than his arm meet up to discuss creating a "more cerebral" version of Friday The 13th? Apparently, Maniac Cop!Chris (AKA "The Meat Macabre") hops out of the 2022 Skoda Scala to discuss this cult classic in detail, from inception to final product, while enjoying some delightful final product from Williams Brothers Brewing; "Juice Tygrrr", a pleasant DDH IPA & "Tin Man", a thirst-quenching Tropical IPA. Follow the show and get involved in the conversation over at @onemansmeatpod on Twitter, please & thank you.
Morning, all!The first year of NWA-TNA may have brought some good quality in-ring action, but watching it back in 2025, there was nothing to really draw the casual viewer in, so that they could also come to enjoy the likes of AJ Styles, Jerry Lynn & Christopher Daniels too. Then, along came the commandant of Crash TV, Vince Russo, and his company takeover storyline. Join "Big Meaty Cool" as he attempts to dissect the impact of Sports Entertainment eXtreme!Recording greatly aided by Williams Brother's Brewing, and their wonderful offerings; "Talking Head", a crisp, fruity, American Pale Ale & "Sapian", a boozy but bold Kveik Double IPA.Follow the show and join the discussion: @onemansmeatpod
Greetings, boys & ghouls! "The Meat Macabre", is back on the road of horrifying delights, but all on his lonesome. Why not join him, as he takes a look at 2016's Terrifier. There was drinking at the wheel though; as William Bros. Brewing's "Juicy Joker" NEIPA and "Chillax" Cold IPA kept me warm on the winters' drive.

See you next time, darlings!
Well meatsiders, it's been a while, but the main One Man's Meat show is BACK.... in solo form for the time being. And thank you to King Pigsbladders for tidying the logo up a bit. 2005 was a funny old year for Matt Hardy. Rejection from his lady love, and a termination of employment from WWE. But he wasn't about to take it lying down, instead seeking to carve out a new persona for himself. And where better to mould that character, but in mid-2000s super indie; Ring of Honor, against one of the greatest of all time, "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels. Yes folks, ya boy "Big Meaty Cool" reviews ROH: Fate of an Angel. Watch the show here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh0NmhKrxZ4 (You should, as it's an awesome event). Libations for the recording of this episode were "Joker IPA" & "Double Joker" from Williams Brothers Brewing of Scotland. Stay tuned for "Offally Lonely", a solo horror movie review podcast, coming soon.
Well, it's been a while since "Big Meaty Cool" & "Da Meat Guy" talked some forgotten freshness, so Chris drops a quick episode to talk about the future of the network going forward.
Another week of steadily declining quality folks, but Kwang IS AWESOME! And there was a delicious Arbor Ales treat for "Big Meaty Cool" to enjoy: "Matt La Blanche", a Coriander-heavy Witbier brewed in collaboration with France's Big Mountain Brewing Co. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Another solid week from all 3 companies really, and there's nothing wrong with that. Nor was there anything wrong with "Big Meaty Cool's" latest offering from Arbor Ales; "ZZ Hop", a session-strength NEIPA. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Jeff Jarrett puts in another star performance, Raw promotes a Superstars match (I know!), and "Big Meaty Cool" was generally happy this week. It was probably to do with Arbor Ales and their wonderful "Citrus Maxima" Lemon & Lime Pale Ale. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Can we not just watch Spring Stampede again? After a decent 10 minutes, it's mostly downhill. Arbor Ales failed to disappoint again though, with their delicious "Helles Lager" Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Could this be WCW's most perfect pay per view? It's certainly close! And a great show deserves TWO great pale ales fro Arbor Ales; "I speak for the trees" & "My Little Sabrony" Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Superstars, Saturday Night, ECW... Oh my! And all good! As was "Big Meaty Cool's" latest can of awesome from Arbor Ales; "Can of Worms", a lovely Tropical Pale Ale. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
A much improved episode of Raw this week, but still no sign to the "New Era" yet. Arbor Ales were still on point though with their "Talus In Wonderland" American Pale Ale. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
A better episode of Raw, with a fun 10-man tag and new regular segment. The rest of the action "Big Meaty Cool" covers was ok too! And "Days Like This", a delicious, 4.7% Gluten-free Pale Ale from Arbor Ales, was terrific. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Lex Luger sucks the life out of Monday, Jim Cornette is brilliant and Ted Dibiase starts his shell suit phase. And Arbor Ales bring the awesome with "Shangri-La", a tasty, West Coast style Session IPA. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
It's the 2nd ever Raw after Wrestlemania, but was it any good? "Big Meaty Cool" finds out! And we welcome Arbor Ales to the podcast with "Nashoba", a delicious, 6.2% NEIPA. Follow the show :@onemansmeatpod on Twitter
The 2nd WrestleMania of the podcast, and "Big Meaty Cool's" favourite, which doesn't make it perfect. The final DEYA Brewing pairing was "Tappy Pils", a 4.4% ABV German-style lager. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
It's a mostly WCW-heavy episode today, but there's nothing wrong with that. There was also nothing wrong with today's craft beer pairing; DEYA Brewing's delightful 2.5% Lemon Radler. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
A quality pre-ppv special by the WWF, paired with DEYA Brewing's signature "Steady Rolling Man" American Pale Ale. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Pay-per-view hype, a Ricky Steamboat banger, an unfortunate blatant hint at an upcoming signee, and an incredible "Sound Machine Groove" 8% ABV DIPA from DEYA Brewing. These are the things that "Big Meaty Cool" enjoyed this Saturday. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Well folks, no point lying, "Big Meaty Cool" didn't like all of this episode, but there were high points. Another high point was "Hokum Stomp", a delicious 5.6% ABV English Porter from DEYA Brewing. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
After a fun event from WCW, "Big Meaty Cool" is back to covering all the major 1994 wrestling action in one episode! And going into Wrestlemania 10, we could have new WWF World Champion! This weeks beer was "Sun Hour", a fruity, Kolsch-style beer from DEYA Brewing. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
So, just Raw to cover today, following a weekend of wrestling coverage. But, we have 2 really good TV matches to close out. "Big Meaty Cool" also had a really good session pale ale from DEYA Brewing, a 4.2% beauty by the name of "Magazine Cover" Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Welcome, Ladies & Gentlemen... to armbar-a-mania! Seriously, there's loads of them. But, there's also an incredible final 3rd to discuss, that ranks this as one of "Big Meaty Cool's" favourite WCW shows of all time. And the recording was enhanced by a cold can of "Into The Haze", a 6.8% Hazy IPA. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Well darlings, there's SuperBrawl hype aplenty here, isn't there? Please do enjoy, in the same way that I enjoyed "To Some Extent", a delicious 6.8% IPA from DEYA Brewing. Follow the show: @onemansmetpod on Twitter
An average week for the WWF and ECW, but an enjoyable episode of Saturday night in the runup to SuperBrawl 4! DEYA Brewing's "Brett Pils" was also an enjoyable accompaniment. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
The Fernwood Resort becomes an all you can eat buffet this week, as the worst one-note joke of 1993 gets dragged through the mud in early 1994. You know who's awesome though? Owen Hart. 'Nuff Said. DEYA Brewing are awesome too, as was their incredible "Brett Pale", a Simcoe hopped pale ale brewed with Brettanomyces yeast, that metabolises the hops over time to give a deliciously sour tang and heightened aroma. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Johnny Polo vs Marty Jannetty in a rematch several months in the making, a surprising star turn on commentary, AGAIN, and a coin toss for the ages. Plus; debuts EVERYWHERE, though one meant more than the other. And "Big Meaty Cool" welcomes Cheltenham's DEYA brewery to the podcast, and a delicious "Apple Picnic Beer" Sour was the first of many brews enjoyed from those legends. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
The first clash of 1994 is upon us, but was it any good? "Big Meaty Cool" wades in to find out. This week's craft beer accompaniment is "Squeeze Please", a 4.3% Lemon Gose from Tooth & Claw Brewing in Hartlepool. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
"Big Meaty Cool" presides over a perfectly fine taping wrap-up episode of Raw, over a lovely "Into The Stratosphere" Cold IPA, a collaboration between Tooth & Claw & Brew York. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
1994 is a good year for the WWF, but there was still a lot of guff on this event. Enough for TWO beers actually, as Tooth & Claw Brewing's "Cat Amongst" 5.1% Tropical IPA & "Jellyfish Nebula" 4.6% Session Pale Ale kept "Big Meaty Cool" going for the review and subsequent watchalong of the rumble match. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
"Big Meaty Cool" runs down all the happenings from WWF Superstars & WCW Saturday Night before the BIG Royal Rumble 1994 review tonight. "One Eye", a lovely 7% ABV IPA from Tooth & Claw Brewing, was the accompaniment for this episode. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
An unlikely star turn on commentary, more singles matches than you can shake a stick at and all the hype for the 1994 Royal Rumble than you could ever need. There's also a new brewery spotlight starting this week, as we welcome Hartlepool's Tooth & Claw Brewing with their wonderful "Run B.M.C." 5.5% American Breakfast Stout. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
*Apologies in advance for the intermittent coughing. One of the problems of having young kids!* Inspired by a tweet from the LEGEND that is IANdrew Dice Clay, "Big Meaty Cool presents a watchalong from the January 11th 1994 Wrestling Challenge tapings. I'd never seen it before, and it was a fun watch, made even more enjoyable with "My Lovely Horse", an excellent 6.5% DDH IPA from Sureshot Brewing Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
*Opening Audio fixed to make the episode barely more listenable* It's Raw's 1st Birthday! A commentator returns, the tag titles are defended and a blood feud is settled "Small Man's Wetsuit", a 3.9% Session Pale Ale, was this week's delicious treat from Sureshot Brewing Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
We kick off a new year this week, as we add a show to the mix, start the resurrection of Lex Luger, and watch a tag team implode before they even get going. All of this was enjoyed with "The Hunt is on" a tasty Red IPA from Sureshot Brewing, in collaboration with Siren Craft Brew. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
For this ONE HUNDRETH EPISODE (I never thought that would happen!), "Big Meaty Cool" visits America's capital to check out Robocop's WCW debut! And a special episode deserves a special beer; a "Dog & Horse at the Oatcake Shop" 5% ABV Oatmeal Porter from Sureshot Brewing. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
We go deeper into the bowels of Bootlegger's Bar this week, as we conclude our search for Willian Bols. Editing aided by a delicious "Milson" 5.2% New England Pale Ale by the excellent Sureshot Brewing. Brace yourself for episode 100 next week! Follow the podcast: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Join "Big Meaty Cool" for an investigative report on the search for his missing friend and AIT90s Suoperstars correspondent, Willian Bols. He had an early flight to Montreal, but found time to neck a "Busy Doing Nothing" 3.4% Pale Ale while he waited.
"Big Meaty Cool" breaks down the good, the bad & the ugly of WCW's 1993, and washes it down with a delicious "You Know The Rules & So Do I" Helles by Sureshot Brewing. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod
"Big Meaty Cool" breaks down the good, the bad & the ugly of the WWF in 1993. He still enjoyed it though, so it's probably more positive than it should be. I was also very positive about "Techno Pigeon" from Sureshot Brewery, a 3.8% Pale Ale brewed in collaboration with Manchester Band Ask My Bull. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod
"Big Meaty Cool" reviews his first "Grandaddy of them all", as Ric Flair puts his career on the line for a chance at taking the WCW World Heavyweight Title from Big Van Vader. We also welcome Manchester's Sureshot Brewery to the podcast, with an excellent 6.7% NEIPA, "I can't accept Drum & Bass". Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Quite a noteworthy post-Christmas episode really as we prepare to enter 1994. The Hart Brothers make up, The Quebecers make trouble, Doink makes a nuisance of himself, and The Undertaker continues to make that casket. And SALT collaborated with Drop Project to make "Glide", a delicious 8% NEIPA. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Tatanka returns for a match nobody wanted in the first place, "Double J" Jeff Jarrett has a debut week, but we're still mostly storyline over wrestling. SALT didn't disappoint though, with their amazing "Tram" DDH NEIPA Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Randy Savage returns to the ring, Bret Hart makes a rare appearance, and Double J debuts next week! Bangin'! The "Alpaca" DDH IPA from SALT Brewery was bangin' too! Follow the show:@onemansmeatpod on Twitter
*I refer to this episode as being episode 90 on the show itself. Huge apologies for the error* This week, "Big Meaty Cool" bids farewell to a true WWF legend, gushes over a late contender for Raw match of the year, and hears a Ric Flair promo for the ages, all enjoyed with a "Serge" Citra session IPA by SALT Brewery. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on twitter.
"Big Meaty Cool" analyses ALL the fallout from Survivor Series 1993, including The Steiners working Saturday AND Monday, Owen Hart continuing to be coy about his little paddy, the results of the Superstar of the Year poll, and of course a trip to Atlanta for the post-Battlebowl episode of WCW Saturday Night. There's also a new brewery spotlight underway, as "BMC" tries himself a "Jute Session IPA" from the excellent SALT Brewery in Leeds. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Well, here it is, the last WWF PPV of 1993. "Big Meaty Cool" loved this show as a 14 year-old mark in 1993, but does it hold up to his snarky scrutiny 31 years later? Listen on to find out! The accompanying beer (Transmission, a 6.7% IPA from NORTH Brewing Co.) held up very well, though! Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Largely a highlights package with nothing matches in-between, but surprisingly enjoyable, as was "Invisible Cities" a 6.7% Hazy IPA from NORTH Brewing Co. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
Yes, the great ruiner of Starrcades '91 & '92 gets its' own pay-per-view! Battle royal fans are in for a treat, but what about everyone else? Listen on to find out! The beer of the episode was "Springwell", a 4.5% pils from NORTH Brewing Co. Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
The World Wrestling Federation manage to find a commentator WORSE than Rob "The Knob" Bartlett, with a voice that ruins the entire programme. Meanwhile, World Championship Wrestling continue their amazing run of go-home shows for 1993. "Big Meaty Cool" cradled a "Sputnik" American Pale Ale by the wonderful NORTH Brewing Co during the recording. And "BMC" will be back TONIGHT for the review of WCW Battlebowl. Best to get it out of the way, eh? Follow the lads: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter
Ahead of Survivor Series, "Made in the USA" Lex Luger takes on Quebecer Pierre, and on Superstars, Tatanka's replacement in "The All-Americans" is revealed. And I find something I like associated with (shudder) Leeds United, in NORTH Brewing Co's collaboration with The Square Ball fanzine, "California Pale Ale" Follow the show: @onemansmeatpod on Twitter.
