We are just looking for the greatest two people who exemplify love and support to the highest degree.  And who are we?  Well, It's just Handsome Bane, Malikai Unique, ShowinMadLov, Bossman Hyphen AS WELL AS former guest from the previous Rumbowl Ms. Tels.  BUT WAIT!

Today we have a very special guest coming all the way from the Land Down-Under, Australian Professional Wrestler Savannah Summers. Handsome Bane invites her to the pod to mark out unapologetically. Savannah gives us the details surrounding her journey into the business and what to look forward to when the cloud of Covid lifts off the world. She also tells us who she believes is the best there is currently, her favorite wrestler and just who is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME! This chat was a lot of fun and so is Savannah's accent. We'd like to thank her for taking ILaPoW international. Love, Trust and Belief --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ila-pow/message

HB starts the show by explaining that his presumed absence last week was ACTUALLY a super presence, because even though there was no ILaPoW episode PER SE, ILaPoW presented the NEW SHOW, EVERYDAY COSPLAY with EVERYDAY ROGUE is out on all the platforms and ready for your consumption! Then he launches into some personal updates, family, living situations, job stuff. Nothing huge. AND THEN we are honored to be joined by Creator of Roger Rabbit, Jessica Rabbit, Baby Herman and Eddie Valiant, author and all-around cool guy, GARY K WOLF! I KNOW!! He and Handsome Bane dish on the origins of Roger, Gary's relationship with Disney, how different the book is from the film, WHY pray tell, Roger went from being a BROWN bunny in the book to a WHITE bunny in the film (It's a very reasonable explanation) HB auditions and politics for a role in a future project and (jokingly) agrees to preorder THOUSANDS of copies of Gary's next book. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ila-pow/message

Since we're probably about to enter Mad Max times, the ILaPoW and Hyphen Podcast Group family has picked out a lovely little bunker in an undisclosed location in a quaint little cul de sac. Handsome Bane, Melysette and THEE Marc Rob are first people to move in.  So to pass the time until all the others arrive, they exchange house warming gifts, make the house rules and introduce the mini-tournament concept. They discuss the weak ass pull out game of men in movies about dystopian futures.

After the week we've had, the ILaPoW put down the desire to run any kind of show with a plan. HB and KP got in touch with MalikaiUnique of Obvious Nonsense, turned on the mics and let it fly. They talk about mediocre white dudes. They discuss the old 7 minute rule (how long a man has to impress a woman). People from Houston. Gwyneth Paltrow don't even slap like that.

Whatupdoe Loved Ones! We're trying something a little different this time. We've always been your home for everything from Pro Wrestling takes to Spiritual Warfare to chat with cosplayers. Well, we're working on a new project called "FirStEps" where we take the first episode of a show and deep dive on it so you can see if it's something you would find interesting. That way you're not spending 50 bucks a month on streaming apps just to watch The Office again. On this episode, one of the last Game of Thrones holdouts, KELEN CONLEY (B. Hyphen) makes his return to ILAPOW. We go over the first episode "Winter is Coming" and Kelen's impressions of it. In the end Kelen let's us know if he would like to continue watching Thrones or if it's just not for him. FirStEps is a show we submitted to the Google Podcast project.

First, lets explain that this was recorded as episode two but is obviously being released now. Why? Kofi winning the title and Avenger: Endgame came out and kinda pushed what we had planned back. In this episode Maps and Bane were supposed to be covering the Avengers Vol. 1- The Final Host, written by Jason Aaron.....but it just didn't pan out like that. What had happened was....we were still on a podhigh from celebrating the life of Bane's brother as well as our eternal love of the 1980s Transformers movie. From there Bane gives his review of Netflix's Voltron, as well as Jordan Peele's Us. FYI there are some spoilers but not major ones? Eventually we work way around to actually doing what we came together to do; review this new Avengers comic book arc. After that the ball gets officially rolling  when we pitch Black Sentry into the MCU, who Michael Jai White should play, how Bane put Miles up on Captain America back in the day. And lastly they touch on Bane's take on the new She-Hulk, a review of Batman: White Knight and the upcoming Birds of Prey movie.    For more media from Maps or Handsome Bane, as well as other great podcasts, head on over to www.hyphenpodcastgroup.com, and go to https://www.patreon.com/hyphenpodcastgroup if the spirit moves you to support.

Maps begins this episode talking about how he celebrated his daughter’s birthday as well as his gripes with planning events around relatives. Miles finds himself understanding his Old Man a little more while venting about his unwillingness to do most things. Before we forget, this episode we mused by Aaron, the Patron Saint of It’s Like A Podcast or Whatever. While discussing his apprentice on ILAPOW, Miles talks about his love of all 1980s Transformers movies and it’s effects on his mind. Listen we’re gonna level with you guess....Miles said a lot of things about Handsome Bane that he’s not really happy with or proud of, but positive things were said that can’t be taken back.

Aaron Greenlee is the patron saint of ILaPoW, so this celebration of his life was of the utmost importance. When he passed away in 2011, he didn't just leave a void, he left a huge responsibility to all those who survived him. Today, Handsome Bane honors his brother by reviewing one of the many things Aaron is synonymous with, THE REAL Transformers the Movie. With Bane on this journey is his rival and friend, the crotch-grabbingly-great Miles Amadeus Prower. They float through the plot and spend a lot of time of the small idiosyncrasies.

It's a family affair when the ILaPoW team starts the holiday season off by giving thanks to all the people who don't receive enough shine this time of year. We begin with a lover's spat that gets squashed immediately. They get into the heroes and stories to support their cases. The room is just full of friends and family so this episode probably has more love per capita than any other episode of ILaPoW.

The fellas gather in the CastleVania Home Office to review the 1993 cult classic, "Fear of a Black Hat" starring a bunch of black guys you're sure you've seen before, but can't name (Rusty Cundieff, Larry B. Scott, Mark Christopher Lawrence) who play the group Niggas with Hats in this mockumentary. THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. It's all jokes about the rap game as it was, and the remnants that still somehow shockingly remain relevant today. When a rap group is made to choose between getting paid or "keeping it real", what will happen when the group chooses both? We pretty much laugh the whole time about our favorite parts and quotes, so if you're looking for an in-depth, dissection of a film, we tried. If you've never seen Fear of a Black Hat or our review makes you want to check it out, you can find it on Amazon Prime Video. Hell, you can probably find it on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqp-a... We're also collecting for our toy drive. Comment if you want to know how to help. Cashapp $ilapow and every dime will go towards making a child's holiday very happy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/its-like-a-podcast-or-whatever/message

Hey Loved Ones. I know. It's been a while. But such is life with season 7 of ILaPoW. We just can't seem to say goodbye. Maybe we don't exactly want to. In the meantime, let's call some friends up and draft the greatest advertisements in local Detroit history. Joining us are Detroiters and Michigan State Aye Cee and Jeaux Hayden along with recent visitor to the D and Black enthusiast. Obvious Nonsense's own Malikai Unique. This is actually a make-up pod as the first attempt was a ROYAL RUMBOWL.... wait, are you even reading this? Fine, here's a message from our sponsor.

First, lets explain that this was recorded as episode two but is obviously being released now. Why? Kofi winning the title and Avenger: Endgame came out and kinda pushed what we had planned back. In this episode Maps and Bane were supposed to be covering the Avengers Vol. 1- The Final Host, written by Jason Aaron.....but it just didn't pan out like that. What had happened was....we were still on a podhigh from celebrating the life of Bane's brother as well as our eternal love of the 1980s Transformers movie. From there Bane gives his review of Netflix's Voltron, as well as Jordan Peele's Us. FYI there are some spoilers but not major ones? Eventually we work way around to actually doing what we came together to do; review this new Avengers comic book arc. After that the ball gets officially rolling  when we pitch Black Sentry into the MCU, who Michael Jai White should play, how Bane put Miles up on Captain America back in the day. And lastly they touch on Bane's take on the new She-Hulk, a review of Batman: White Knight and the upcoming Birds of Prey movie.
