Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

• Silent RAW

  In this week's episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver settle into a conversation that moves from wrestling history to the unpredictable present. The show opens with a look at a moment from Kevin's career that still sparks debate, and the discussion quickly branches into the kind of blunt honesty only Kliq This delivers. Nothing is off the table and the tone is set early. As the episode unfolds, the guys dive into the strange crossroads where nostalgia meets reality. Long standing legends, old stories with new twists, and the way narratives evolve are all brought into focus. Kevin reacts to a headline making claim that has the wrestling world buzzing, and his response anchors the episode with a mix of disbelief and grounded perspective. Outside the ring, the conversation turns toward politics, headlines, and the broader culture. Kevin breaks down the latest controversies with the same directness he uses when talking about the business. Sean keeps the ball moving while Kevin adds context, numbers, and the kind of analysis listeners have grown to expect from him. Later, they pivot into wrestling today and the way certain markets, audiences, and atmospheres can completely change the energy of a live show. Kevin gives a rare performer level insight into how crowd reactions shape the pacing, confidence, and delivery of televised segments. The guys break down what silence really means and how pros adjust when the arena throws them nothing. Before wrapping, Kevin offers listeners a set of film and TV recommendations, and answers questions from the live chat with surprising depth. From injury recovery to performance advice to the realities of aging in wrestling, the back half of the episode delivers some of the strongest personal insights Kevin has shared on the show.

• Who get's to be a Critic?

  This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver dive straight into the deep end. The episode opens with a wild swing through markets, technology, and the future of AI, setting the stage for a conversation that keeps expanding until it reaches the moon. Their back and forth turns into a sharp look at how power, energy, and innovation could reshape the world faster than anyone is prepared for. The tone shifts as the guys move into heavier territory. They explore political noise, manufactured distractions, and the subjects no one wants to stay focused on. Sean pushes the discussion while Kevin lays out why certain stories never go away and why others disappear too quickly. The tension around truth, institutions, and public manipulation hangs over the whole segment. Wrestling fans still get their fix. Kevin breaks down moments that stood out on Raw, gives unexpected praise to rising talent, and offers insight into how ring work is really judged. There are comments on timing, movement, pacing, and the sort of details only someone with decades in the business can spot. The Garden, the reactions, and the energy of the live crowd all make their way into the analysis. The episode hits a high point when the two debate who gets to be a critic. Kevin argues from the performer's perspective while Sean fires back from the audience's side of the barricade. It becomes a sharp, honest, and at times funny exchange about expertise, fandom, and the fine line between opinion and understanding. Neither man concedes easily, which makes it even better. Kliq This closes with its trademark mix of sharp commentary, unexpected tangents, and the unfiltered honesty that keeps listeners returning every week. It is unpredictable, thoughtful, and packed with moments that land long after the episode ends. Listeners get humor, heat, and a level of candor that only this show delivers.

• 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.
