In early 2015, One of Namo's favorite guests ever made his first appearance on Team LeftJab Radio... Matthew Burns AKA "Sick" Nick Mondo. Burns came on to promote his upcoming film at the time "The Trade" but also discussed his shift from CZW’s ultraviolent era to a filmmaking career based in Japan, clearing up misconceptions (he’s not an English teacher) and explaining what led him to stay in Japan.
Topics include his ECW influences, the brutal style and mindset behind CZW, reasons for retiring in 2003, his concern for younger wrestlers, and the story behind his new film at the time "The Trade" — a surreal docudrama exploring why he was drawn to extreme wrestling.
This episode blends wrestling history, personal reflection, and the creative rebirth that led to The Trade. Burns was a great interview!
In this episode of Midnight Hostility After Hours, the Trump–Mamdani White House meeting takes center stage. Namo has said for years that people who live and die with politicians stances are foolish and the meeting at the White House today proves that point. After months of critical comments by both about each other, President Trump & NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani had a love fest that had to be seen to be believed.
Key points: politicians act in self-interest, media moments are often staged, and Namo urges listeners not to lose friends or family over partisan worship — keep perspective, don’t buy the hype.
On this week's Midnight Hostility Radio, Namo talks about the possible release of the Epstein files and how you shouldn't expect much to come from it. Government officials do not get in trouble...simple as that.

And of course, Namo's picks for Clown of the Week, Weekly Gargoyle & Hot Girl of the Week.
On this episode of Midnight Hostility Radio, Sam Namo breaks down NYC Mayor-Elect Zohan Mamdani's political promises that are as unrealistic as they sound.

Then, we have the great Frankie MacDonald in his weekly spot giving the latest worldwide weather report and news insights. Frankie talks about how Prime Minister Carney is looked at compared to President Trump in the United States.
Plus, Namo's picks for Weekly Gargoyle, Clown of the Week and Hot Girl of the Week.

In this episode of Midnight Hostility Afterhours, Sam Namo rails against the explosion of reaction videos and celebrity tie-ins, arguing they’re inauthentic, overhyped, and replacing real content — even showing up in WWE highlights. He critiques the motives behind reaction channels (audience-building, monetization, brand-building) and mocks the performative nature of on-camera reactions.
Sharp, opinionated, and blunt, this episode skewers modern content culture and the industry’s push to court younger audiences with viral gimmicks instead of substance. True garbage content. Why would anyone want to watch some nobody react to a video complete with fake expressions.?

In this episode of Midnight Hostility Afterhours, Sam Namo looks at the NYC Mayoral Race as well as the first debate and the only question is...this is who we have to choose from?

Politics was, is and will always be a mess. Don't obsess over it.

TKO Corporate greed, ticket & merch rising prices, and the loss of accessible wrestling (Netflix & ESPN Unlimited) have pushed WWE to the back burner for Namo and with the direction of creative these days, that's ok.
It's Youtube highlights and clips from now on for Namo who is accepting that the old, mainstream WWE is largely gone for now.

Expect blunt takes on Juan Soto, Pete Alonso, pitching failures (Senga, Montas, Manaea), rising youngsters (McLean, Sproat, Tong), and which veterans should be gone.

The episode also covers a shocking subway stabbing of a Ukrainian woman, commentary on social media outrage, and the dangers of public events.
Then Legend himself, Frankie McDonald joins in his usual segment with weather updates (typhoons, Tropical Storm Gabriel, and global storm chatter), personal stories and his thoughts on the latest news.
