Voice of the People: Radio by and for the 99% - Linda Gillison, Soundman Jim and Mark explore our Word of the Week: “Alignment.” We talk about what that word means in the context of social movements, including the one's we are covering in this show. And so we look at the long-term success of Minnesotans For a Fair Economy who uses long-term alignment among disparate social movement groups as a way to build power. Then we turn to Montana's own Transparent Election Initiative and how one national group sees its potential for change. We hear from one worker on strike in the ongoing struggle against Starbucks. Then we look at the prospects of a general strike in 2028. We hear from Sarah McClain who reads her opinion piece on the legacy of the recently deceased Dick Cheney. We finish up with the Julian Assange lawsuit in Sweden against the Nobel Prize committee's granting of the Peace Prize.

I will be the first to admit, I was surprised when Dan told me he wanted to quit the podcast. Especially after all the wonderful things he said about us during the Season of Giving over on Wrestling Playlists.Oh well, we move on. Potential new co-host Orchid joins us this week to talk all things Shane Douglas. This is an episode you do not want to missFollow Orchid on Twitter: https://x.com/livelaughlbomb

On this episode we discover that the titles and descriptions we use make it nearly impossible to know what was talked about on any given episode. We have backed ourselves completely into a corner. To better help in the future, I'm going to list out some topics for help:- Slade- The Family Stone- Dan shirking all responsibility 

This week's episode of VPR is a whodunit mystery. Please stick with us for all the twists and turns to come on this episode. 

The normal four host all died in freak Finale Destination like incidents. So the show has been taken over by the best the Violent People Discord got to offer.The_Padraig https://x.com/padraigGavCole https://x.com/jusfolaughsgagsMarilyn of Death https://x.com/MarilynOfDeathJadeee https://x.com/punkinomenon

HEY THERE FOLKS IT IS THE WORLD WIDE WEBS #1 HORROR PODCAST AND VINCE RUSSO FANCAST, GET ON IN OR GET ON OUT!

Sometimes you come up with a concept for a topic on Violent People Radio that shakes you to your core. One that you know is just going to hit it out of the park. This is that episode. 

Chris, Dan, Pat, and guest host Cole pay tribute to Sam in the only way they know how with an in-depth and comprehensive discussion on all the latest pro wrestling.

We replaced Sam, who's MIA, with Padraig. Padraig is writing about the best wrestling match in the history of every state. We discuss and ramble about wrestling in various states we've lived. You can check out Padraig's Project here:https://x.com/padraiggav?s=21We also discuss in much more depth our starting 5 NBA lineups made up of horror movie characters..

"This is one for the books" - Dan"Why aren't people hiring me?" - Michael Elgin"I'm not an embarrassment" - Prestige Promoter

On this episode, we pay tribute to a legend. The one and only, shodate. A person we didn't have as long as we should have. Born in southern Chicago, grew up one of three kids. Their mom worked two jobs trying to make ends meet. It was a tough life, but she made the best of it. I hope she knows she raised a good one.With this tournament, we pay tribute to their memory. A beautiful mind that saw wrestling for all that it could be. A force for good. Listen as we talked about his stories and the matches that we feel he too would have loved. 

On this HUGE episode of Violent People Radio, we talk about America's greatest living artist, Paul Walter Hauser, and his recent tour de force performance. There is nothing quite like an all-time great professional wrestling match to remind you why we watch this stuff. Every host on this show was sweating profusely just talking about the FIGHT WITHOUT HONOR bout. Elsewhere on the show we talk about:This sick tag match https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrIdHq8LSa8Pats excellent time with some IWA Mid-SouthMissing Rachel SummerlynDan's woesGive us a listen and leave us that dreamy 5 star review on your podcast platform of choice

Another week, another episode of mind-tickling discussion from the best around. We pay tribute to one of the 100 greatest wrestlers ever, Sami Callihan. Starting from the beginning of his career and working towards his recent retirement, no one covers wrestling like Violent People Wrestling.Of course we have the guys talking about the wrestling they've been watching. Highlights include Ruthless Pro Wrestling's King of the King 3 and [REDACTED IN SUPPORT OF UNION BOYCOTT] and sleep.

Dan Rice is an absolute coward and did not show up this week. Luckily, we have the courageous Cole bringing the heat. When Cole shows up that raises everyone's game. We know he's going to come in, having watched a surplus of wrestling, and we need to be ready to go bar-for-bar. Anyway, this is a movie podcast.PS Sam apologizes for his dog 

Sam is back and we have a packed show. So much TNA and JCW talk. Oh, and of course listen for our in depth deep dive preview into WWE's AAA Triplemania. You will get dizzy trying to keep up. I would almost recommend not trying. But you are who you are so you must.

On this week's episode the gang(minus Sam) analyze and discuss The Saint and The Savior, a screenplay penned by Michael Elgin. I am very confident this is the first podcast to obtain and discuss this cinematic masterpiece.I guess wrestling is discussed as well. I don't know.

On this week's episode, we talk about the Greatest Match Ever project. An annual project hosted on a forum like the good old days. We go through the list, talk about snubs, highlights, and what we want to see done differently. We hit a few other topics along the way.

We have the incredible Phil Schneider on this week's episode to talk all things Way of the Blade: AEW Edition. We have become a touring spot for the Hybrid Shoot books, and lovely to chat Phil's ear off. If there feels like there is an abrupt edit, blame Pat.Sorry. Chris couldn't make it, the computer fought back.Order a copy today: https://www.amazon.com/Way-Blade-AEW-Phil-Schneider-ebook/dp/B0F89MD7TF

Time to go over the results of the third-ever Violent People Hall of Fame induction. We find out something we knew deep down about all our voters. And that knowledge will set us free.Anyway, we all watched wrestling and once again of strong MLW thoughts. 

SITTING IN THE HALL OF FAME...I don't have it in me. There is a song that wants to be sung but I can't sing. And I'm sorry.We are back for another round of nominees for the Violent People Hall of Fame. You've all made rough decisions so far. But I'm trying trust you. Come get heat stroke with us.  Vote for the hall of fame TODAY

When a bastard like Sam is out Chris, Dan, and Pat had only one option to replace him this week, with A Bastard. The boys have actually watched some wrestling(MLW WAR CHAMBER, lucha, XPW, etc.)The BIG TOP is shitty looking wrestlers. Check it out ya bastards

Sam and Pat are not here. Chris and Dan have not watched wrestling. Hopefully guest host Padraig has watched more than just the 2012 Royal Rumble. The trio also discuss 2006 cinematic classic See No Evil on this weeks Violent People

2004. I was 12. An idiot. That is what we are covering in this episode, specifically CZW 2004. That is because we have one of the All-Stars of the Violent People Discord, Marilyn on.We also talk about how Hall of Fames need standards, Puff Daddy, and how to eat a poptart. All this and more on Violent People Radio 

What do we even talk about on this show? That is a question I ask every episode. Somehow even more in this episode. When you find yourself talking about the strongest wrestlers in WWE history, you begin questioning yourself. What is strong? Who is strong? Where is strong? Why is strong? We must answer that.Also we have one of only two DEAN2 REVIEWS you will need, assuming Q&T Are talk about it. If they don't, the only one you need. Unless someone wants to write about it and Q&T Are talk about in which case it is one of three. 

Have you ever wondered how to ban someone from the Violent People Discord Community? Is there someone there in the 250+ member server that grinds your gears, chaffs your ass, or simply is a minor annoyance? By listening to this episode of VPR you can discover how to remove them from your life. And the cost is less than you think.Otherwise, we chat about okay wrestling, discuss the bounty of DEAN 2, and describe Pat in extreme detail. You won't want to miss it. 

Neoborn Caveman, your sovereign voice of humanity, unleashes a no-holds-barred rant against the elite's con jobs—tech traps, corporate poison, and globalist schemes—that crush your mind, body, and soul. From fried brains to silenced voices, this episode exposes the systems chaining you, as folks bow to the grind, too scared to stand out. Join NC for a truth-soaked, side-splitting ride that'll spark your rebel spirit!The world's a rigged game, and the elites are dealing the cards. Big Tech's screens and junk food sludge turn your brain to mush, with kids' focus tanking 80%, leaving you adrift in a digital fog. Fast food giants peddle toxic slop masked as “healthy,” poisoning your body while you nod along, too beat to care. Algorithms tighten the grip, locking you in paywalled echo chambers that leave your soul lost, shunned if you dare think different. In Spain, youth choke on 25% unemployment and sky-high rents, their protests a cry of despair from a generation alienated by socialist red tape. Across the pond, retiree Julian Foulkes gets cuffed for an X post, his life upended by UK thought police wielding dusty laws to gag free speech, fear of exclusion silencing the brave. It's all part of globalism's con—WEF suits and WHO mandates flatten your culture into strip-mall sameness, stripping your sovereignty while the weary comply, dreading the loneliness of standing apart. These systems—tech, corporate, bureaucratic—aren't accidents; they're built to keep you stressed, small, and chained, your spark dimmed by elites who think they own you. But your soul's tougher than their rules, and this episode's your wake-up call to see the con for what it is.Music Guests: The Speed of Sound, Reverend Genes, Sami Chohfi, Inoxidables, pMad-ThinkSupport us and grab Canada's Mirage or The Digital Trap to see the truth and become a patron: https://www.patreon.com/TheNeobornCavemanShowKey Takeaways:Big Tech's screens and algorithms numb minds, fostering compliance and cutting souls from real connection.Corporate food poisons bodies, while globalist systems erase cultures, leaving people lost in soulless sameness.Socialist overreach and thought police crush dreams and voices, breeding despair and silencing truth.Systemic control—through tech traps, censorship, and mandates—thrives on exhaustion, but sovereignty fights back.Reclaiming your mind, culture, and voice starts with seeing the con and refusing the herd's leash.Free speech marinated in comedy.........

How the time does fly, it feels like just yesterday we were starting Violent People Radio. Just four podcasters with a dream. A dream to start a wrestling podcast. Something that had never been done before. Not like this. And on this episode it is all about the big man, the legend, Violent People Hall of Famer, Sabu! Recently killed my GCW, we talk about what made it some great, what will stick with us, and mostly just appreciate the best pot smoker in the game.For those that haven't been here for the whole journey, have no fear. We have the special VPR HIGHLIGHT SHOW in the after show spot. Even if you have listened, take a stroll down memory lane with us.

To describe this episode would be doing you the listener a disservice. I won't infantilize you by giving info. That would impede your growth.Also we talk wrestlers dressed as dicks, Mike Quackenbush's Patreon, Court Bauer BIG DOGGIN Tony Khan and all the exciting news in wrestling you expect to hear on VPR.Also I made zero edits on this episode. This came out pristine and I refused to tarnish that.Buy a Mug https://linktr.ee/violentpeople

Sometimes on VPR you get a completely clean episode. No swearing, completely brand safe, everyone locked in and focused, and no technical issues to speak of. It happens once in a generation. Heck, once since inception. And I think that is the case here.Spend your mug money here: https://www.idahogives.org/organizations/trans-affirm

WrestleMania weekend brings out the most in us. Is it the best? Unsure, but absolutely the most.There is a link to pay us in here https://linktr.ee/violentpeople

Every year we circle this event on the calendar. Sure, over the past few years you could say that the shine has worn off but we are still here. We are ball knowers and to not engage with the biggest event on the calendar, or at least what aligns with our sensibilities, would be in poor taste. Join us we break down all the upcoming action on Violent People Radio. This episode isn't for the non-super fans. 

Sam is out, so Chris, Dan, and Pat are joined by Parm Singh Man, Dusk Pro Promoter (@DUSK_ProWres) just in time to promote Dusk Pro: Field of Hopes and Dreams, taking place Thursday, April 17th at 2:00 PM in Las Vegas, as part of Mania Weekend. Outside of that its mostly talk of Big Show and dildos. Give it a listen.Don't buy a mug this week, buy tickets to Dusk Pro whether youre in town or just want to show your support. Its only $10! http://buytickets.at/duskpro 

There is no promoter quite like Court Bauer. A singular mind in professional wrestling history. Who else would bring in Eric Bischoff to create the Battle Riot? Besides singing the praises of Court, we talk about what we have been watching, a MOTYC, a true Style Battle between MMA vs. Pro Wrestling and much much more. Also, buy a mug https://violentpeople-shop.fourthwall.com/

We say this in no uncertain terms, the return of Haily Welch to the internet is meaningful.That is all we can say for now for legal reason. On this episode of VPR we play the World's Most Dangerous Game. We fantasy book. It isn't just fantasy booking though, it is fantasy booking using cruel twists and turns that Game Master Pat gives us. You must listen to hear all the traps that he sets. Also, buy a mug. 

Hell has frozen over. The story of Jon Kramer left unfinished. Decades of fandom down the drain. The world is an unfair and this is just another reminder.We must move on though and talk about wrestling. Unfortunately, I think the more episodes we do the less we understand our big tops. Time has not been kind to these brains of ours. All is well thought. 

We have a special episode this week as we have a special guest, J.J. McGee, the author of Fight Forever: The Ballad of Kevin and Sami. Yes, a real author of a real book was on the show. And they have a doctorate! Who would have thunk it. Chris is in the need of an MD so they are out and missed this week.She isn't here to shill, though; she's here to talk about wrestling (and maybe OUR FAVORITE MOVIE FRANCHISE?????). We talk real amounts of shop including about CHIKARA's edgy Canadian step-cousin.We thank her for being on, and if you don't buy the book I will curse you and your family for the rest of your days. BUY THE BOOK: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/fight-forever-the-ballad-of-kevin-and-sami#/

Chris is on his death bed, Dan can't pay someone to fix his computer, Pat is moving on up in life, and Sam is hosting this week. A lot to dig into, like "Should dogs be able to buy hats". That and much much more on this episode of Violent People Radio.Oh, also vote in the VP100 you idiot https://violentpeople.co/vote-now-in-the-2024-vp100/

This week Chris is currently on a murder rampage, killing the evil bully at every dive bar across the country. To replace him this week we brought back friend of the show, Host of REGRESS, Cole. What do we talk about this episode? What don't we talk about! But above all else we are hating. Hating on wrestling and hating on dumb fans. Ain't that what it is all about?

It's 1am, I still have no working PC, Sam is gone, and I miss him. I edited this on an iPad. I pray it's listenable.Andy(ShrimpRIZZkit420) admirably stepped up to the plate as a guest host. We discuss WWECW. None seems to know why. I think it's a good time.Join the Discord

THE MARK MIND VIRUS HAS INFECTED VIOLENT PEOPLE RADIO!Pat is out this week, kidnapped by John "Jigsaw" Kramer (what a legend). We called in a ringer from across the pond, Padraig.  We talk about the hot NBA news the trade deadline has given us. Trades break on air, we break while recording this episode. As an aside to our newly found love of the NBA, we bring you the second-ever class of the Violent People Hall of Fame. A class to end all classes (maybe literally).PLUGS:Join the DiscordPadraig's TwitterHis Blog

Folks, it is late. I've been staring at this editing software wondering "how does this work". It isn't the question I want to be asking while I'm trying to put together an episode. It is the cost of fame. And make no mistake, being on VPR is a type of fame. Well, if you want to listen to this episode, you are going to be taught important things about life. Get under the Wisdom Tree. 

I don't know man. The world is so cruel. It is hard to understand how things are going to get better. Wrestling? Wrestling will always let you down. But there is something that will never let you down. Or at least, never let me down.YOU GUESSED IT JOHN KRAMER BABY, THE JIG DADDY HIMSELF! COME ON IN AND SIT YOUR BUTT DOWN TO HEAR OUR THOUGHTS ON SAW, OUR SAW THOUGHTS BBY!!!!!Follow Cole on social media: https://x.com/jusfolaughsgags

SPECIAL GUEST ALERT! Tim from Q&T Are is here this week to bring something the show usually lacks: Wrestling Talk. Importantly though we break down everything going on with Malakai Black. There is plenty to dig into and we put in an uncomfortable amount of research to make sure we did the topic justice.   I wish we could say we talked about Pat's GCW piece of the upcoming GCW show but we don't really have much time how much time we spent on Malakai Black. A topic worth discussing. FOLLOW: https://x.com/ROHDUTCH + https://x.com/qandtare*No idea why I, Sam, sound like I'm in a tunnel

Have you listened to all 32 episodes? Do you know ball? Then you are in the right place.The fellas are at it again, another round of the Violent People Hall of Fame.

When you've the names come out of our mouths (that you can not see). No free peaks.As always we answer your questions as terribly as possible.
