    His unhealthy obsession with wrestling is the first thing I noticed when he joined GB. At GI they reigned in his wrestling bullshit fairly well

    It's already there although it's under a different name. "Videos with Dan Ryckert".

    I bet there is a game of the year podcast where wrestling isn't mentioned. I also don't want to sit through all of them to find out.

    I love how much defensiveness is in this thread. Even just mentioning a video content without wrestling triggered people, which I find amazing. So fuck that guy for even asking that question! Yeah!
