You'll never refresh our feed without something new featuring familiar and trusted hosts and cohosts covering a topic you love with that just right mix of enthusiasm, knowledge, and a dose of irreverence and humor too!

Whether you're primarily a follower of WWE or prefer AEW and New Japan or a mix of older wrestling and the indy scene, we have an array of podcasts to give you immersive coverage and diverse perspectives of every slice of the wrestling world. We have shows focused on just WWE, just AEW, just ROH, just Impact Wrestling, just Japan, and just NXT, plus shows that cover a mix of all of the above and more along with nostalgia and documentary reviews. You can mix and match which shows you listen to based on your interests at any given time and explore our backlog of nearly 20 years of podcasts to dive into specific topics, themes, and eras.

Even if you're not watching a lot of wrestling these days, but feel invested in keeping up on the industry through our analysis and entertaining banter with a mix of personalities and perspectives, you'll find VIP membership valuable. While we're hardly only about podcasts - with three decades of newsletters and over 20 years of backlogged web content - we'll tell you about our VIP Podcast benefits first.

WADE KELLER HOSTS THESE VIP-EXCLUSIVE SERIES

• Post-PPV Roundtables hosted by Wade Keller: Beginning in 2003, Wade has hosted with two other PWTorch contributors/columnists post-PPV podcasts with a roundtable format. They run usually an hour or so, and become available within 90 minutes after the PPV ends, featuring three perspectives on the entire event. Typically, Todd Martin and either Rich Fann or Zack Heydorn are part of the Roundtables.

• The Fix with Todd Martin & Wade Keller: Todd brings passion, intellect, curiosity, and strong points of view to every week's episode with a walk through the top happenings in WWE, AEW, NXT, New Japan, and more along with a weekly MMA segment. You need to listen to truly fully understand why this quickly becomes a podcast our VIP members say they schedule their podcast listening lives around. Oh, and VIP members say the humorous banter between Todd and Wade is a weekly VIP hightlight.

• The Fix Mailbag with Todd & Wade: Each week VIP members send Todd & Wade questions on a wide range of topics from the WWF Attitude Era to MMA to current events in pro wrestling to his extensive knowledge of wrestling books and much more. It's a weekly graduate-level course on pro wrestling with Todd's strong knowledge mixed with unapologetic, well-backed points of view.

• Everthing with Rich Fann & Wade Keller (new in 2021): Every weekend, Wade and Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter columnist Rich Fann  discuss pro wrestling's top stories, controversies, matches, and angles. Rich also closely follows pro wrestling's social media and brings his perspective to real life hot-button social issues in pro wrestling including race and gender. The show is called Everything because of Rich's vast and eclectic range of interests and deep knowledge on those interests. His areas of expertise range from New Japan and All Japan to WWE/AEW/NXT to MLW/NWA/ROH and the indy scene. They also have a recurring "Off the Beaten Path" segment exploring a clip related to pro wrestling in some way (current or way in the past) that's quirky or notable that one or both have never seen before.

• The Wade Keller Hotline: Throughout the week, Wade posts updates in a variety of formats including his start-to-finish 25-45 minute rundowns of Raw, Smackdown, and Dynamite with his analysis added. Also, his Flashback Saturday Night edition with a week's worth of fascinating insider news updates and TV reviews from that week 15 years ago.

• Wade's "Focus on..." series (new in 2021): A sub-category of the Wade Keller Hotline podcast feed is the new "Focus On..." series. In this era, some VIP members are much more interested in AEW or WWE news, but don't want a podcast update mixing the two. So this new series of shows gives VIP members a mega-dose a concentrated news on a specific company.

• VIP Podcast Vault (new in 2021): Wade Keller selects key shows from the VIP vault when PWTorch first began recording podasts for subscribers before "podcast" was even a word dating back to 2003. In late 2021 and early 2022, we posted over 100 podcasts from the first year of PWTorch podcasts back in 2003-2004! More great Vault content coming later in 2022.
