Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis
The lights are low, the music hits different, and the stories feel a little more dangerous. We open the door to wrestling's scariest era—when monsters like Abdullah the Butcher and Bruiser Brody weren't just characters, they were walking question marks. Teddy Long and Mac revisit the moments when kayfabe felt airtight, blood looked too real, and even the locker room held its breath when certain names showed up on the board.From a hilarious, tense rib on the notoriously tough Butch Reed to the unspoken rules of receipts and respect, you'll hear how the old code worked and why it still matters. Teddy takes us back to the nights he wore the stripes for the Horsemen, the Midnight Express, and the Rock 'n' Roll Express, and how learning in that crucible shaped his journey from ring crew to SmackDown GM. Along the way, we talk about how social media changed the magic trick, why selling is a lost art when egos get loud, and how the best wrestlers make their opponents shine.We also get into today's headlines and hidden gems: Vince Russo's creative move to JCW, the real value of a WWE draft versus leadership that steadies the ship, and the community energy that's moved with us as we build this channel. Then we hand out overdue flowers to underrated women who held eras together—Molly Holly's precision and generosity, Jazz's raw credibility and strength—and why their work still teaches the craft. Expect seasonal nostalgia, candy corn slander, and plenty of live chat love as we keep the conversation honest and fun.If you enjoy the stories, hit subscribe, turn on notifications, and share this with a friend who misses when wrestling felt a little scary. Drop a comment with your pick for the scariest wrestler of all time and the most underrated woman who deserved more—let's hear your card.Send us a text

In Get My Go Episode 96, titled "Billi The Willi Hunter", the hosts Mike, Joe Feeney, Hughezy, and The Chadster—focus on Billi Bhatti and mock his behavior during his podcast appearances and public interactions. The episode is filled with humorous critiques, focusing on Billi's exaggerated claims and awkward moments, particularly his interactions at wrestling events.The hosts highlight Billi's trip to **WWE SummerSlam**, where he reportedly stalked wrestlers at their hotel, seeking autographs and pictures. A key point of humor is Billi's insistence on getting his son involved in these autograph hunts, which the hosts view as excessive and unnecessary. They also poke fun at Billi's behavior, including how he portrays himself as someone important in the wrestling world while often coming off as desperate for attention.One notable topic of ridicule is an incident where Billi allegedly asked his son to check on the size of *Omos'* genitals while the wrestler was using a urinal. The Get My Go hosts find this moment particularly bizarre and inappropriate, using it as a running joke throughout the episode. They further mock Billi's tendency to involve his son in uncomfortable situations and question his parenting decisions.The hosts also bring up Billi's previous run-ins with CM Punk, discussing how Billi's relentless pursuit of autographs and pictures led to Punk eventually ignoring him. The conversation showcases how Billi's behavior often alienates wrestlers and casts him in a negative light.Overall, Episode 96 is a playful roast of Billi Bhatti, focusing on his antics at wrestling events and his perceived desperation for attention. The hosts use their signature sarcasm and humor to dissect Billi's actions, providing plenty of laughs throughout the episode.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/get-my-go--5166636/support.
