A podcast for killing time that might otherwise be well spent. Two has-been jocks turned semi-responsible adults promise to expertly discuss sports, booze, glory days, and pledge to half-heartedly discuss the most important current events impacting the world around us, but with very little regard for in depth research or facts. Shane, Mike, and Jim are too old to wrestle, but too young to die and they just want to tell you about how they are spending their moments in between. You will laugh and you might even learn something. Come ”cut wait” with them.
