Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

• Grand Slam

  Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver step up to the plate this week with an episode built around one of the biggest moments on Raw in years. John Cena finally added the last piece he needed to become a Grand Slam Champion, and the guys dig into why this achievement hits differently, how long it took, and why the reaction backstage and on screen says more than people realize. From there, the show widens into the chaos surrounding the episode itself. Sean's airline saga, government shakeups, and strange political side stories all collide with Kevin's real time reactions to bills, subsidies, and behind-the-scenes motives that never seem to make the headlines. It's a slice of real life filtered through two guys who have seen every angle. Nash then shifts into wrestling mode, breaking down the logic of the matches on Raw, the storytelling choices that led to Cena's moment, and the small pieces of booking that could have shifted everything. They talk about Logan Paul, CM Punk, War Games build, and the surprising elements that did not get addressed on camera. It's a rare dive into how a live show lands from the perspective of someone who has lived it. The conversation stretches into the state of titles today, what a championship means in an era of injuries and constant resets, and why certain performers are thriving while others are stalling. Kevin opens up about the psychology behind working "big," how talent reads the room, and why certain characters click instantly while others struggle to stick. Layer in some NBA talk, baseball economics, Bigfoot sightings, CPAP issues, cannabis taxes, and classic Nash storytelling, and "Grand Slam" becomes a ride that never stops curving. It's fast, sharp, honest, and filled with the kind of insight and humor only these two can pull off.

• The Raven Effect

  Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver reunite with their old friend Raven this week for a raw, hilarious, and brutally honest conversation about survival. The guys dig into Raven's new documentary Nevermore: The Raven Effect, which explores the darkness, ego, and mental illness that shaped one of wrestling's most complicated minds. Nash and Raven trade stories about painkillers, ECW chaos, and the mental toll of living on the road, revealing how close they all came to not making it out alive The talk gets personal fast. Raven opens up about his addictions, early-onset Parkinson's, and why watching his own life on film felt like ripping off emotional bandages. Nash reflects on the locker-room culture that glamorized self-destruction and the quiet PTSD every veteran carries from that era They balance the heavy with humor—stories of insane road trips, ridiculous bar fights, and the strange brotherhood of wrestlers who can't stop laughing at their own disasters. There's talk of cereal at midnight, broken bodies, the worst-smelling locker rooms, and the moments in the ring when time itself stopped and the crowd was completely theirs Raven also reflects on the psychology of wrestling—why the smartest guys in the business are often the funniest, and how showmanship, not moves, creates immortality. Nash counters with stories from his own training under Jody Hamilton and the price every big man pays for longevity By the end, the mood turns reflective. The boys talk about faith, regret, and what it means to still be standing when so many friends are gone. It's dark, funny, and deeply human—the kind of episode that reminds you why Kliq This is more than a wrestling show. Get Blitzed-Save 15% at Get-Blitzed.com by entering the code KLIQ at checkout.

• The Catalina Freakin Wine Mixer!

  Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver open this week's episode with real talk about money, government, and survival. What starts as a look at the SNAP program turns into a full-blown discussion about how the system fails the people it's supposed to help. Between rising prices, broken promises, and the next storm on the horizon, Nash gives his unfiltered take on who's really keeping the lights on in America. The conversation spirals from there, hitting everything from insurance scams to hurricanes in Florida to the political blame game in Washington. Nash doesn't hold back on either side, while Sean tries to make sense of a system where logic rarely wins. It's political frustration told with the timing of two guys who've seen it all, inside the ring and out. Sean keeps the energy moving with stories from his new espionage book and a wild connection to a Medellín cartel pilot. Nash answers with tales from the road that include stolen ambulances, Madison Square Garden parking nightmares, and what life was like when coffee came from Mr. Coffee instead of Starbucks. It's nostalgia and chaos in perfect balance. Then the talk shifts back to wrestling as Kevin reacts to Raquel Rodriguez being called "Big Mami Cool" and reflects on what it means when today's stars borrow from the legends. They also touch on Kurt Angle, the grind of training, and why Nash still treats every gym session like it's game day. His mix of honesty and dry humor cuts through every topic. By the end, they've covered SNAP benefits, the economy, stem cells, AI bubbles, and gym etiquette without missing a beat. It's smart, unpredictable, and funny in the most Nash way possible.

• We're All Gonna DIE

  Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver stare straight at the end of the world this week. From doomsday conspiracies and nuclear torpedoes to fake Twitter wrestlers and open carry in Florida, the guys explore what it means to live in an era where every day feels like the last. Nash talks about a 6'10" model, a second moon, his social media firestorms, and what he'd do if given absolute power. Then it's back to sports and spectacle: Monday Night Football vs. Monday Night RAW, Dak Prescott's ceiling, the Lions' redemption, and WWE's billion-dollar balancing act in Saudi Arabia. Kevin opens up about marriage, mistakes, and the hard-earned wisdom that comes after a lifetime of highs, losses, and locker room lessons. It's dark, funny, honest, and more than a little fatalistic. The world might be ending—but Nash and Oliver will still have a mic in front of them.

• The Turn- but WHICH WAY?

  Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver kick off this week diving into AI simulations that blur the line between fantasy and reality. From imagining Tyson vs. Frazier to de-aging themselves into a 1991 version of Kliq This, the conversation explores how artificial intelligence could rewrite sports, entertainment, and even history. But as Kev warns, it all comes at an electrifying cost. The mood turns cosmic when Nash brings up "Atlas 31," a mysterious object moving through space that some conspiracy corners believe isn't just a meteor. What starts as a chat about science spirals into cyanide emissions, alien theories, and how much energy humanity's digital future will really take to sustain. Back on Earth, Nash unpacks the bizarre world of tariff insurance, connecting billion-dollar bets to politics and Wall Street's newest obsession. He then takes us 35,000 feet up with stories from a claustrophobic transatlantic flight—proof that being 6'10" comes with its own turbulence. The pair also debate CM Punk's comments about airport autograph hunters, sharing firsthand stories about wrestling's gray area between fandom and harassment. Nash recalls the tricks, scams, and even a few Sharpie-based revenge tactics from his years on the road. Finally, the episode closes with a flurry of nostalgia and sharp insight—from MTV's fall from cultural dominance to the vanishing art of residual checks and the danger of cold plunges.
