On this weeks episode of RAOP we reach into the mail bag and answer questions from the listeners. Enjoy!
Get ready for an electrifying episode! We’re recapping New Japan Pro Wrestling's Windy City Riot, dissecting all the wild moments and surprises that stole the show. Then, we shift gears to discuss Becky Lynch's future—is her wrestling career coming to an end? Plus, we’re putting the spotlight on Samantha The Bomb’s newest single and why it might be your next jam.
The episode dives into the evolution of WrestleMania, asking when it truly became a “spectacle.” From iconic moments to game-changing matches, we explore the history of WWE’s biggest night.
We also hype up WrestleMania 41 with Saturday’s star-studded lineup, including Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk battling for glory and possibly Paul Heyman’s loyalty. Other highlights include Gunther defending against Jey Uso, Tiffany Stratton vs. Charlotte Flair, and LA Knight vs. Jacob Fatu. Sunday keeps the momentum going with Cody Rhodes defending the Undisputed Title against John Cena, and a triple threat for the Women’s World Championship featuring IYO SKY, Bianca Belair, and Rhea Ripley.
Finally, “Do We Care” asks tough questions about overlooked matches, the Andre the Giant Battle Royal, and who Randy Orton might take on. Packed with wrestling goodness, this episode hooks you from start to finish!

The latest podcast episode offers an engaging blend of cultural commentary, nostalgia, and debates that tackle both movies and music. The hosts kick off the conversation with reflections on the cult classic Big Trouble in Little China. While one host felt a nostalgic connection, the other struggled to connect, admitting the film’s fast-paced action might resonate more with those who experienced it during its prime. This leads to humorous discussions about cultural representation and characters' dynamics.
The spotlight then shifts to Billboard’s controversial “Top 25 Female Rappers of All Time.” While heavy hitters like Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, and Lauryn Hill dominate the list, the hosts voice strong opinions about rankings, questioning placements like Lauryn Hill’s top-three spot due to her limited rap catalog. They also highlight underappreciated talents like Shauna and critique the absence of certain deserving artists.
A recurring theme explores how music resonates personally. The hosts candidly discuss how emotional connection shapes taste, particularly in how men engage with female rap. They emphasize the need for authenticity in music appreciation rather than societal performance.
Braves record on Homestand : 3-2 (Split 1-1 with Miami Marlins, won two of three against Philadelphia Phillies.)
The 2025 season has not gotten off to the start that Atlanta Braves fans anticipated, but the first homestand of the season gave Braves faithful a glimpse into what this team is capable of accomplishing as the season progresses.
After starting 0-7 on the road, Atlanta broke through in emphatic fashion against the Miami Marlins. The Braves offense erupted for 10 runs on 16 hits, their largest output of the season so far. Centerfielder Michael Harris and designated hitter Marcell Ozuna had three hits apiece, while Ozuna and first basemen Matt Olson both knocked in three RBI. Starting pitcher Spencer Schwellenbach aka “the OTHER Spencer” was dominant in his home debut, throwing eight innings of two hit baseball while striking out 10 Marlins.
Unfortunately, Atlanta was unable to ride the momentum from their opening victory to secure their first series win of the season, as a 4-0 loss on Saturday combined with a rainout of the series finale meant that a series split would be the best outcome (for now). The third and final game of this series will be made up later. Rainout aside, Atlanta still had something to be happy about after the weekend, as the return of their All-Star catcher Sean Murphy was officially scheduled for their clash with division rival Philadelphia.
The return of their All-Star backstop helped spark their struggling offense, as Sean would homer and drive in four runs in his return and the Braves went on to defeat Cy Young contender Zach Wheeler 7-5, a game that saw them score 4 runs after the 6th inning . After three home games, the Braves offense finally began to resemble the offense they had grown accustomed to putting on the field every game the past two seasons.
Reigning National League Cy Young winner Chris Sale pulled no punches when asked about the impact of Murphy’s return. “Unbelievable,” said Sale “Big three-run homerun, another big hit later in the game. It just sort of seemed like the game gravitated toward him today, so having a guy like that come back around is key for us. He was a big part of our success last year, specifically my success. A Gold Glove, All Star caliber catcher? I mean anyone would gladly take that back on their team for sure.”
Manager Brian Snitker echoed Sale’s sentiment when asked about his catcher. “Some really good at-bats, he fouled some balls off, just the whole at bats, his posture.. it’s good to get a veteran guy back.”
As for Sale, he hasn’t looked like himself yet over his first few starts, and the 14-year veteran is aware of it. “I just have to find the groove; it has not clicked yet. It’s not all put together, which is frustrating because I felt like I was there in spring training. I felt like I had a really good spring training other than one wonky start but everything else kind of felt in sync and then once the season started things got off the rails.
Game two of their three game set with the Phillies once again knocked the wind out of Atlanta’s sails, as late inning homers by Bryce Harper and Trae Turner lead to a 4-3 victory for Philadelphia. After yet again splitting the first two games of the series, Atlanta went into the rubber match looking to capture a series win before the weather made that impossible. Fortunately for the Braves, league officials had a long leash with the rain delay this time.
With the final game of the series tied 1-1, the teams sat through a 2-hour and 45-minute rain delay that forced the game into the midnight hour. Philadelphia would eventually take a 2-1 lead in the 11th inning, but the Braves weren’t done fighting. A double by Austin Riley scored Ozzie Albies to tie the game and Marcell Ozuna did the rest of the heavy lifting, sending a two-run homer into the left field bleachers to end the game at 12:53am.
It wasn’t pretty, but the win gave Atlanta a winning record on the homestand and their first series victory of the season. The Braves kick off their next homestand (six games) at Truist Park this Friday when the Minnesota Twins come to town.
Pierce Rob and Chris relive the "25th Anniversary of WrestleMania". Plus, Charlotte and Tiffany Stratton's feud goes off the rails, Kevin Owens' neck injury, and Swerve Strickland takes shots at Booker T.
