Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends....then takes another hiatus! It's Episode 19 of the Sober World of Sports: King of Pro Wrestling 2013. This is round 6 of the Okada vs Tanahashi feud from 2012 - 2016. We discuss the original Bullet Club, Nogami's bad day, NJPW Jackass, and the legend of Sweet Dick Tan!

Happy Holidays from the Sober World of Sports! Coming back from hiatus number 46, the boys take a look at a holiday classic: The Pro Wrestling NOAH Christmas specials. They enjoy the angelic vocal abilities of Naomichi Marufuji, Mikey confusing half the big guys on the roster, Joey discovers his new favorite wrestler, and the age old question: Does Daniel Bryan sign t-shirts? All this and more on the silliest wrestling podcast: Sober World of Sports!
Waiting for the boys to record a new episode? Fear not, as we still have content (sort of....). This is a compilation of cut content from the first half of the Okada Tanahashi Feud storyline arc. Featured in this episode are: 2012 New Beginning, Okada in TNA, 2012 Dominion, and Wrestle Kingdom 7. We hope to be back soon to finish up the arc, as well as possibly record more bonus episodes.
After a few month hiatus, the boys are back with Round 5 of the Okada Tanahashi feud! This episode covers Day 8 of the 2013 G1 Climax Tournament. During the show we cover the prior days of the tournament, past events, and Joey asks the age old question: How do you use a Tenga Egg?

Oh boy...... For a while now, the boys have been wanting to cover All Japan Pro Wrestling's Wrestle-1 2nd Show! A bizarre, yet entertaining show, which features a book ending Bob Sapp, a bag of garbage, and Mikey revealing his native language. All this and more on the silliest wrestling podcast out, Sober World of Sports! Outro music: Petscop Even Care Recreation by Fred Stoyva.
Episode 17 brings us back to Ryogoku Sumo Hall for New Japan Pro Wrestling's 2013 Invasion Attack. A weird audio glitch occurred, but that didn't stop the boys from recording. In this episode, we cover Round 4 of the Okada Tanahashi feud, as well as a conversation about Time Lord, Kojima as Bread, the better of two Centaur songs, and the return of Sober World Theater. All this and more on the silliest wrestling podcast: The Sober World of Sports.
Want to hear a terrible attempt at a podcast recording? This bonus episode was recorded two years ago, during the Dramatic Drunk Team days. We attempted to record the Last American Dragon episode, but with so many distractions, as well as a DDT staple: a late start time, this episode went off the rails. The next episode of SWS will be recorded soon, so for now, enjoy listening to this debacle of an episode.
The boys were together with nothing to do....what did they do? Record a bonus episode! This bonus episode briefly brings back the Vega Scale from the DDT days, but we quickly drift off into topics like: NYC Public Access shows, Scott Steiner as Scott Stapp, "Mark" Google, and a synopsis of Joey's favorite movie. All this and more on the silliest wrestling podcast out there: The Sober World of Sports!
It's Round 3 in the Okada Tanahashi feud! Episode 16 takes the boys back to the Tokyo Dome for Wrestle Kingdom 7: Evolution!

This is a compilation of the remaining bonus content from Season 1 of Dramatic Drunk Team. We will be back hopefully soon for the next episode in the Okada Tanahashi Feud, but for now, here's some crap that didn't make the episodes.
Episode 14 brings you to the Osaka Prefectural (or prefectual how they spell it in the show) for the New Beginning in Osaka 2012 show. It's round 1 of the Okada Tanahashi feud. The boys discuss the matches leading to the show, as well as the usual nonsense, such as wiener holes and singing theme songs. All this and a wee bit more on the surliest wrestling podcast out there: The Dramatic Drunk Team!
What a difference a year makes! The Dramatic Drunk Team has made it's one year anniversary. We discuss different top wrestler/unit/gimmick lists, stories of our week, and singing tunes about Ricochet. Credit goes to the original creators of Hulk Hogan Sends a Gay Message, and brotherbrotherbrother. Post Note: Tetsuya Naito won the belt at Invasion Attack, not Dominion. He actually lost it back to Okada.
Episode 13 continues the long, yet epic feud of Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Kazuchika Okada. This time, we're going a few years back, and discussing Okada's excursion to TNA.
We welcome you to Season 2 of Dramatic Drunk Team! After taking a small break, the boys decided to start up again, tackling the Okada Tanahashi feud, chronologically from show to show.

Summer is here, and the DDT team is back. Pizza, burgers, and other fast food joints are the random topics for the evening of Joseph’s birthday. Remembering good times and great memories with hard liquor. It’s been a while since we’ve done a wrestling episode. The audio isn’t the best, but we’ll get that down (eventually). Enjoy!
Episode 11 is in short form, but we discuss the All Japan Pro Wrestling tenure of Jun Akiyama. Recorded a day before Evolve 61 (in which you can see us in the front row), we discuss some Akiyama matches, the evolution of Kyohei Wada's hair, and also an appearance from Angry Mauro Ranallo.
An unreleased episode from the Thanksgiving Special we've done. We supposedly talked about champs, and may have rambled on about numerous things.
Episode 10 is a doozy! We have a special guest with us, just recorded shortly after Mikey's 25th birthday. With our guest, we discuss certain topics such as: Thermites, The Craft, McMahon, Thermites, Schweppes, 80's TV shows, and of course, Thermites!
Episode 9 of DDT finally covers one of our favorite animes: Kinnikuman! We go over the basics of the show; it's history, the plot, the characters, etc. We also talk about our little Round Robin Street Fighter V tournament that occurred before recording.
Episode 8 of Dramatic Drunk Team celebrates the indie days of recent retired wrestler Bryan Danielson! In this long episode, we talk about our weekend, the story of Gizmo, Bryan's life and career in wrestling, up until his WWE days. Joey and Mikey discuss first seeing him at Ring of Honor shows in NYC, along with their memories of the shows, while Manny struggles to stay awake.

A compilation of cut content from Episode 3.
Recorded right after the Podcast del Mal episode (shitty audio still present), we debate who we would choose to represent our 1992 Dream Team.
Audio quality sucks, I know. It'll be fixed for later episodes. :) Episode 07 of Dramatic Drunk Team takes a break from The Land of the Rising Sun, and we talk about the late, great, El Hijo del Perro Aguayo! Before that, we briefly discuss our top 5 wrestlers and tell a story of Survivor Series '96. We go into the brief history of EMLL becoming CMLL, and the debut of AAA, Aguayo's history with both companies, leaving to form his own promotion, a conversation about Highlander, Aguayo's death, and of course, the story of Luchadorable! We also do commentary on Perro's match at Triplemania XXII against Cibernetico, Dr. Wagner Jr., and Myzteziz in a four way elimination match! link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlSgOrjjCgg This episode was recorded just shortly after Lemmy Kilmister died (R.I.P), so certain discussions may be a bit out of date, such as our excitement for Wrestle Kingdom 10, where we accidentally say Yoshi-Hashi is doing commentary, instead of Yoshi Tatsu. We were tired and still drunk.

Our first attempt at a commentary track! We watch and comment on the bizarre, yet entertaining, Dramatic Dream Team Apartment Complex show, starring Kota Ibushi.

When Manny talks about the sexiness of male wrestlers, Mikey comes up with the Vega Scale. In this bonus episode, join Mikey, his brother Joey, as they ask Manny to rate wrestlers on the Vega Scale.
In time for Wrestle Kingdom 10, we talk about past Wrestle Kingdom cards by.....just reading the cards and discussing matches and debating format of said card reading. We also discuss God's booking of the Bible.
I apologize in advanced of the peaking audio. Stupid me set the gain too high before recording. For Thanksgiving, we and a few friends discuss some of wrestling's baddest mother fuckers. What was supposed to be a nice chat, derives into more Vega Scale chat, as well as some work stories, and remembering Razor Ramon HG.
In this episode of Dramatic Drunk Team, we discuss the rise and fall of All Japan Pro Wrestling, while battling loss trains of thought and a malfunctioning mouse. We also figure out why Kawada is always mad.
Note: We fucked up a few facts, but will be addressed in the next episode. Episode 2 talks about the next top star in New Japan Pro Wrestling: Shinsuke Nakamura. We talk about his career, stories of meeting the man, and go off topic with our guest.
Welcome to Episode 1 of Dramatic Drunk Team! Episode 1 slurs about one of New Japan Pro Wrestling's biggest stars today, Kazuchika Okada.
