It’s so crazy how far Geordie has come… he has podcast with the biggest people in almost every sport

[@Real-wr4tw]

he aint the biggest in the sport lol

[@didnaeknowyehaditinye2813]

Started with a dream just slagging off joe kinnear, pardew and Ashley with an iPhone on an ironing board. Look at him now

The fact that Chris Jericho has the honor to meet THE TRUE GEORDIE is crazy to me😂😂 All Jokes aside, super proud to watch the progression Geordie. Leveling up all the time

[@GoGetYourShinebox]

Yeah I remember the good ol' FIFA days when he was raging. Shame he's taken that content down lol

[@iainhamilton213]

Ok Brian. I'm officially jealous lol, first Undertaker, Shawn Michael's and now Jericho. If you get Stone Cold Steve Austin then that's a different level.

[@ivanaleksandartsanev1693]

Man, imagine Stone Cold throwing around beer cans and shouting "GIVE ME A HELL YEAH". 🤣

Austin would do it aswell he is open to do interviews he did one with pat macfee not long ago aswell.

This. Is. Mental. Fair play lads, great to see how far the podcast has come. Congrats.

[@drewellis95]

It's mental the first Video i saw was Gerodie ranting over Newcastle losing to Sunderland 3-0 and here we are Interviewing Y2J Chris Jericho it's fucking insane 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@TheDukeCountyGaBoy01]

What about QPR 2 Newcastle 1

[@charlesturnage4256]

The way Jericho would steer the conversation back towards him when Geordie would ask questions that pertained to other wrestlers and their controversies was amazing. It’s really respectful of anybody who knows the purpose of the podcast and tries to help give to the podcast, even if it is just because it’s to personal to discuss in Jericho eyes. Much respect to him 👊🏻

[@jaylcfcable]

Geordie acts like he works for the sun or some other trash rags. Hes like a gossiping housewife. Jericho saw straight through it

[@InsShogunGage]

Could be that plus he's a narcissist. He's talented and has had a great career but the past few years he has really been tarnishing his legacy. Still great podcast and interview

[@InsShogunGage]

But it did appear to come from a place of respect for sure; he's just made it difficult to like him lately

[@CervC]

@@InsShogunGage he also has this tendency on his podcast. love him as a talent but soo many red flags lol

[@GassedFEIN]

@@InsShogunGage the guys giving great advice and telling good stores and his career hasn’t gone down hill Jerichos one of the greatest

[@christopherreynolds9254]

Up to now, Chris has had the most attitude of all the interviewed wrestlers - he’s a funny guy, and clearly speaks his mind

[@RealTarekAhmed]

I've loved the ones with Taker and Shawn but they're never as good as when it's face-to-face like this one - so excited to watch!!!

[@SharifKridane]

I have been watching and admiring Chris Jericho for the last 20 years, I have been watching and admiring Geordie for the last 8 years! Never in my wildest dreams would I've predicted that the two would ever be sitting at the same table! MASSIVE respect to Geordie, the guests for the podcast the last few months have been nothing but sensational!

[@mannerz8100]

Geordie's pull is fucking crazy. such an insane range of guests on the pod over the years and I would of never of expected Jericho that's crazy. You guys are killing the game fam.

[@LewWise87]

Great podcast. Chris is a tough cookie to interview as for any "deep" questioning he always gives a "man up and deal with it" response so you both done well to keep it flowing and get some great information from him!

[@lagofala]

It's also because he has his own podcast and speaks about those things very often.

[@cude.design]

I thought it looked difficult too. The Shaun Michael's flowed nicely and seemed way more friendly to interview.

[@johnnyboycrack]

Really enjoyable listen, and the fact that it was in the same room had a lovely feel to it. Such a relaxed conversation between 3 people that gave the feel that they’ve known each other for years, the way a proper podcast should be

[@BlueVanMan]

This will be on in the van tomorrow

[@pabloeskybruh9624]

This easily could’ve been a 2.5 hour pod! Absolutely loved it

[@ranabirmitra]

Just wanted to say that you (& the TG team) are literally bringing out childhood dreams to life by interviewing these OG-level wrestlers. I have to say that The Undertaker & Shawn Michaels podcasts had alot more of "formalised" presentation (understandable as it was over video) but THIS was just another level 🙌 The way Chris spoke and the topics you'll cover were excellent and fair credit to Brian and Laurence in being such comfortable hosts and creating the environment for Chris to speak to well & openly.. Brilliant work to the entire team!! ❤️👍

[@shitpostloooool]

From the days of recording videos on an iPhone balanced on an ironing board to getting the best guests ever. Thank you for everything you do Geordie! Absolutely love it! ❤️

[@TheBrokenSword]

Oh boy! It just gets better and better here! Loving the guests, keep it up!! 💪💪💪

[@TheAndrews89]

Great interview. Jericho is so confident and just doesn't try to overly praise or kiss ass. Great to see. Best True Geordie wrestling interview so far. Kevin Nash would be a great interview too.

[@Heizzer47]

He’s very aware and seems to be very honest and has no delusions about his position

[@MisterMacho]

This was an excellent interview. I have been a diehard wrestling fan for 30 years now and Chris Jericho has remained in my Top 5 favorite wrestlers of all time. Jericho is simply timeless and his morals and overall outlook on life in general has so many lessons that so many can benefit from. True Geordie now has a new subscriber in me. Keep up the good work!

[@hafizalfarzan]

Chris Jericho is one of the greatest minds in the history of this business. This man could get any gimmick over. Phenomenal performer in ring and psychology wise. Any aspiring wrestlers, like myself, ensure you study this man, and watch his stuff, so many gems in his matches and segments.

[@ZackBackpackingAroundTheWorld]

I wasn’t sure if this is actually how he is or if he just is being a heel.

[@TheSands83]

@@ZackBackpackingAroundTheWorld it’s how he is.. u can just tell . He’s a smug bastard I know people r going to say “ oh it’s his heel persona “ but I guarantee he’s a prick in real life. He’s definitely putting on some persona but that’s him . He’s a smug guy who really thinks highly of himself

[@melissawright1979]

If he's a heel in wrestling then he plays a heel outside of it too

[@bartez111]

Great podcast. You played that perfectly Brian. You impressed Jericho with your knowledge and asked really great questions. Well done. Jericho is the GOAT.

[@sethbutler4270]

Taker, Micheals, Jericho, great lists of interviews. Some of these interviews are very deep and I'm enthralled by it. If you got a guy like Edge on here, that would be wicked. He was involved in some controversial events the last 20 years. Plus his comeback story etc.

[@LeechyFC]

Jericho will always be one of the greatest performers of all time, incredible performer and can change it up whenever he wants and still remain one of the top guys around 👏🏻

[@barrelwolf]

One of the greatest showmen ive ever seen live. Seen hundreds of bands live but Chris and Fozzy are genuinely one of the best. Was lucky to catch them in a small intimate room and got myself a High five from the man himself. Great job TG team.

[@paulashford7]

Brilliant podcast with one of my all time favourite wrestlers. It was really interesting to find out more about Chris Jericho and his career so far. You've come such a long way True Geordie from your rages on fifa to now doing your own podcasts and I look forward to future podcasts

[@Faulkzz]

26:10 “vince might run the company for another 20 years” 12 days later he announced his retirement :(

[@rickredmanwallart1766]

Jericho has a genuine shout at being on the Mount Rushmore of wrestlers. Technical ability, charisma, microphone/promo skills, longevity, evolving moveset, brilliant as a face or heel...

[@maur_sault750]

mount Rushmore? Jericho?? 😂😂😂😂 you must be the ultimate MARK

[@MattyisaG]

He’s the GOAT

[@maur_sault750]

@@MattyisaG an actual goat. Jericho most over rated and the only bigger mark than him is his fans.

[@rickredmanwallart1766]

@@maur_sault750 He's a shout of being on there, for the reasons I listed. I never said he was on mine. For example, Hogan would probably have to go on Mount Rushmore but there are many ways in which Jericho is superior to Hogan. In terms of 'overall' ranking, it would have to look something like Hogan, Flair, Austin, Savage - Mine would change depending on when you asked me, but Jericho would be on, say, a 15-man shortlist.

[@maur_sault750]

@@rickredmanwallart1766 I wouldn't even have in my top 50. The guy after how many years in wrestling is still sloppy as hell in the ring. His gimmick changes that are so heralded are just cheap comedy acts. He lives of the fact he was friends with Eddie, Chris and won the title even though it was dropped pretty quick after. As Vince McMahon famously said to undertaker 'you know when the business is going down when Jericho's champion' 😂😂😂

[@denec9162]

I grew up along with many others watching chris in ecw,wcw and wwe and now in aew. How chris reinvents himself time after time. Great interview Brian

I was tearing up towards the end hearing Jericho say that he wanted to be remembered for giving it his all, he’s such an inspiration and a great example of being confident and working hard

[@norabrandt4078]

And humble, he doesn't act like he's the-end-all-be-all. He knows that he's only 1 cog in the machine of life, but he's a cog that the machine wouldn't work as well without him.

[@Rocky-dx2tg]

Everyone has their favourite wrestlers for different reasons but I think if you were to look for who is objectively the best of all time Jericho is the only real option.

people hate Jericho for his ego, but that is the thing I like about him, he doesn't care what people think and will gladly do what he does best and what he loves to do, some wrestlers are different, some want to be respected and some are respectful, Jericho isn't one of the best without any reason, he worked hard for his creativity and helped other guys and those guys helped him, one of the most realest guys in the business alongside Undertaker, Cena, Orton, Edge, etc they are willing to put guys over and yet their place will remain in the top for the years to come, a legend in the wrestling business without a shadow of a doubt, what a great podcast.
