As a Buffalonian and history teacher/armchair historian this was such a treat hearing Brian's program from Buffalo and Jim's comments. I was born in 1985 so it's before my time, but my grandfather would speak a lot about going to those cards. Hell, my high school US History teacher told me about going to the old Aud when they would throw golf balls at the Iron Sheik from the 300's. Such a magical time in wrestling. I'm glad to have at least experienced the Monday Night Wars in person, having sat front row as a 12-year-old for Nitro in wrestling's twilight.
Well, I mean, Jim pride himself as a wrestling historian, so it does make sense when Jim is off with his guess of the date and location, he screaming F**k as a " No!"
I never knew Dicky Murdock was a second generation star and I've been a fan of wrestling around 35 yrs and listening to Jims podcasts since long before AEW was a germ of an idea. Learn something new everyday. Thanks Jim and Brian for these segments
I love the history lessons here. I also see where Orbit Gum got some of their insults, old wrestling programs. "Who are you calling a Doll Dizzy, you Prune Picker?!"
Language, use and diction evolves over time.. When he says "me and mother" he means he took his wife on a date and left the kids at home. Personally I found the term prune picker semi fascinating. It's a derogatory term for someone from California that time and history has forgot.
@@johngallagher72 twas a joke, my wife and I actually still refer to each other as Mom and Dad the same way my parents and grandparents did. Although I admit, I've never heard anyone called a "prune picker" before. The guy had some expressive language skills I must say
Wait until a few years from now when Brian tries getting Corny to guess Blood & Guts 23’ Brian “Okay Moxley gave the camera a bloody kiss, fell on a bed of nails and then the Elite choked Wheeler Yuta with a chain” Corny- “Kiss my ass”
That story of Terry Funk tellling about how Dory Funk SR worked over a dude is fascinating. I think its from an RF shoot. If you can find the clips of that one or Bobby Heenan on youtube . .highly reccomend. 👍
Keeping Kayfabe in a small town has to be the hardest. I grew up in Amarillo. My wife who never watched wrestling will point out where Terry Funk lived anytime we pass it.
A Google search tells me Prune picker was a slang term for someone from California, if George Wagner used the Hollywood billing prior to becoming Gorgeous, that may well explain the comment in the program
Was Silento legit def? Or was that the gimmick? How would you call a match with a deaf person? Legit question. Love guess the program, love watching Corny work through the card. I could listen to this all night.
Ok Cult members ...I had to look it up ...turns out prune picker is or was a derogatory term for someone from California. Maybe Corny for a cheap pop one day can call the Buckaroos Prune Pickers or add this to their nicknames.
Corny is really good and has gotten lots right, but Last just has so many that are before Jim's time too, the fact that he's only a year or two wrong on some of these are amazing considering a lot of them are before Jim's time.
I love the show but there’s just a few parts that’s go away heat for me lol. One is this game lol. The other is Brian screaming The Mothership. I legit skip ahead every time I hear it coming 😂Still love the show tho.
@TheARTMuZeum i agree with a lot of what they say, but after years of listening the modern reviews just feel like beating a dead horse, whereas im always down for useless trivia on the old days 😂
@@jbo8540 haha! I respect it. It’s usually burying the current product unless there’s certain select wrestlers involved. I personally would rather hear watch a longs and coverage of attitude era or golden era content.
@TheARTMuZeum I was saying the same thing about Jim doing watch-alongs of older stuff both good and bad (have to have more Russo burials on the show) than reviewing of the modern stuff. I mean, what can be said about AEW Dynamite today that wasn't being said from the beginning? With that said, I love learning about the history of wrestling so these segments are gold for a listener like myself, personally. But to each their own
I don't click play on any video faster than a "Guess the Program". Love these.
Ditto. This is my fave thing on Corny's channel.
This is even better than Reggie's Corner 😝
@@williammitchell4417agreed. It’s the only segment I skip. However, GTP is my favorite
@@williammitchell4417Totally. Reggies Corner has become fake with people just trying to get on the show with bullshit stories
TRUTH! Guess tge program is my favorite! Should do at least a hour a week
The mind boggles at Jim and Brian's knowledge and memory. Love these videos.

Finally, back to some old wrestling talk!
I love Jim getting upset over the year, especially when he's just ONE year off.
Like 20-30 years before he was even born and he's a year off. He's like "FUCK!" Lmao
If you can get the region and even get within two or three years that's really good .

Same here. Even before the great Brian Last became co-host 😎
B LEAST😊
First time I had ever heard Murdoch was a second generation wrestler as well
@@brandonthomas1212 Yeah my 3 year old niece thought that one was brilliant.
Yall need to get out more
I love the history lessons here.
I also see where Orbit Gum got some of their insults, old wrestling programs. "Who are you calling a Doll Dizzy, you Prune Picker?!"
Jim and Brian's knowledge of wrestling is really amazing. How Jim gets so close with some of these is amazing.
Guess the Program is the most educational segment these guys have and that's saying A LOT. I learn so much from these programs
Guess the Program and a Terry Funk impression, awesome!
"Cheat! Italian!" Is a hilarious note to leave lol
We need a omnibus of these.
@terryboswell9290 there's always a volume 2,3... and many more!!! With extra CHEESE!¡!😝
Who was making the notes on the 1st program? Norman Bates?😂

@@johngallagher72I looked it up. Pretty neat to learn something used almost a hundred years ago.
@@johnporter9073 yup ...had never heard that term before. ...fascinating stuff indeed.
@@johngallagher72 twas a joke, my wife and I actually still refer to each other as Mom and Dad the same way my parents and grandparents did. Although I admit, I've never heard anyone called a "prune picker" before. The guy had some expressive language skills I must say
@@samspurgeon4222 it is interesting that the term got lost in time. Im really surprised no one had heard it before . 👍
Johnny Powers was the Man with 1,000 Ideas.
You guys really had me baffled with the artwork until damn near the end, and I finally understood 😅😂
When that '57 was actually '58 I felt the pain.
Wait until a few years from now when Brian tries getting Corny to guess Blood & Guts 23’
Brian “Okay Moxley gave the camera a bloody kiss, fell on a bed of nails and then the Elite choked Wheeler Yuta with a chain”
Corny- “Kiss my ass”
😂😂
Dynamite..March 23 , April 15 , may 5th and 6th , September 21st , November 3rd and 20th. .. 2022.
As for 2023 ... Lol
Kiniski was the world champion in 68 during that buffalo card.
That story of Terry Funk tellling about how Dory Funk SR worked over a dude is fascinating. I think its from an RF shoot. If you can find the clips of that one or Bobby Heenan on youtube . .highly reccomend. 👍
Guess the Program is easily the best special segment along with emails and current shit. This is so much better than Reggies Corner
I think I may have been completely right (promotion, place, and date) on only 2 or 3 of these since they started doing these.
I've got better at narrowing it down a little bit, but I can rarely get it right. These programs are fascinating.
Love this segment!!
Jim And Brian Are Back Yet Again With Guess That Program
I love these games. Wrestling history is very interesting to me.
I love these,
My face segment
.hold on....ok..diet coke poured..and..play!
Keeping Kayfabe in a small town has to be the hardest. I grew up in Amarillo. My wife who never watched wrestling will point out where Terry Funk lived anytime we pass it.
🤣🤣I'm just trying to picture Hangman Page in that Funk story at the end of the clip.
I enjoy listening to these too daily ⚡
A Google search tells me Prune picker was a slang term for someone from California, if George Wagner used the Hollywood billing prior to becoming Gorgeous, that may well explain the comment in the program
It never occurred to me before, but Ricky Star might be the reason Jim Cornette knows so much about ballet.
The comment below is my equivalent of a weak handshake! “Kast media website info says “permanently closed” !!!…..if ya know ya know!
Lol Little Brutus
40:00 Try that in a small town.
I think mascaras worked a couple of wwf STL cards. None in the Muchnick era
The 1984 wwf event is on you tube.
Funny for Linda Rouffa to come up. For the past few months, I had been contemplating sending in a question about her.
Big fan
Jim should get a range like plus/minus 2 years. Hes always really close with the year the region and the promotion.
Let’s play lend the salami with uncle porkchope
THE SHARPE BROTHERS WERE CANADIAN, JIM!
Was one of them Iron Mike's dad ?
I've always wondered if Sky Low Low took his name as a play on the name of the 6'9" cowboy wrestling star Sky High Lee.
My favorite segment.
Why does every single thing about Bobby as a promoter sound like something Tony Kahn would say and do?
Was Silento legit def? Or was that the gimmick? How would you call a match with a deaf person? Legit question. Love guess the program, love watching Corny work through the card. I could listen to this all night.
The deaf person could probably read lips or they would have everything written down or worked out prior to match.
Possibly hand signals, as well.
He was legitimately a deaf-mute.
Probably also just comes routine. Somebody on top, cut off, sell, comeback, just a matter of when.
Prune picker is somebody from california
Hell yeah
My favourite
16:41 thanks to Indiana Jones, the image of Gene Kiniski facing off against Mads Mikkelsen popped into my head, and that image made me very happy.
That is shocking to hear that Dick Murdoch passed away at just 50 years old.
Almost. 49
I’m mad UA-cam didn’t let me know about this in the fist 5 minutes
Ok Cult members ...I had to look it up ...turns out prune picker is or was a derogatory term for someone from California. Maybe Corny for a cheap pop one day can call the Buckaroos Prune Pickers or add this to their nicknames.
That art is precious. Jim looks so cute 😂😂😂 He's adorable 😂😂😂.
The Arteest 😎
Good lord
Would love to have seen some Triple A or New Japan programs to throw him off lol
Or tougher yet CMLL and JWA. 😂
Dick Murdock was adopted.
I’m wondering when corny is gonna get one right, hes always so close but wrong by a year or so😭
From what I've heard over the years, Brian has a boatload of these at Last Castle
Corny is really good and has gotten lots right, but Last just has so many that are before Jim's time too, the fact that he's only a year or two wrong on some of these are amazing considering a lot of them are before Jim's time.
He gets a lot right, but honestly, just getting close is remarkable. Listening to him work through the card is some Beautiful Mind level shit
Don't be such a prune picker.
Sounds like panto.
People got old quicker back then
Deaf and couldn't hear
I love the show but there’s just a few parts that’s go away heat for me lol. One is this game lol. The other is Brian screaming The Mothership. I legit skip ahead every time I hear it coming 😂Still love the show tho.
And some of us watch this stuff and skip all the modern reviews. THAAAAAA MOTHERSHIP
@@jbo8540 yeah man. For the most part I agree with Jim and Brian usually on their takes.

They'll make you take the shirt off... lol
@@rockybalboa1847LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thanx for the knowledge fellas 👍
I still like the thing Al Snow said to James on his podcast, "A pat on the back is 2 feet higher than a kick in the @$$"
