Christmas Special 2025: Gedo's Boy Child
Ho ho, and, might I add, ho. It's once again time for the PPP boys to bestow a festive gift upon you, our lovely listeners. We kick off this year's special by answering some of the most unhinged fan questions we've ever received (and that is saying something!) before Statto pits his wits against David's quiz about who the current NJPW champions are, which goes about as well as it usually does. Then we decide who the most 2025 wrestler of 2025 is, cast our eyes over what has been surely the greatest 12 months in the history of wrestling, especially WWE, and choose our dream lineups for Jools Holland's Hootenanny, the only piece of media recorded further in advance of its release date than this podcast. We finish in the time-honoured fashion by taking another trip to Terry Riley's workshop for some Chinese wrestling. Peace and goodwill to all, except Karrion Kross, and Merry Christmas! 0:00:00 – Intro 0:02:24 – Q&A 1:09:59 – David’s Puro Quiz 1:41:38 – The 2025 Baby Boy Bono-chan Award 1:59:09 – Year in Review 2:41:02 – The Puro Pourri Podcast’s Hootenanny 3:15:00 – Terry Riley’s Personal Collection Vol.8 – The Slam (c) vs. Ho Ho Lun (MKW Heavyweight Championship) (MKW Battle of the Decade, 25 May 2025)

#SumoIsProWrestling (feat. Sandy Williamson)
In honour of this month's Grand Sumo Tournament at the Royal Albert Hall, David and Statto are here to lift the lid on the fascinating world of the big lads, with the aid of sumo expert Sandy Williamson. In this one-off special, we explore the connections between sumo and pro wrestling - the spectacle, the kayfabe, the large men running into each other - talk about ex-sumo who excelled (or not) in the grappling game, and cover a few worked sumo bouts from WWE and WCW. If you're a wrestling fan who's ever been intrigued by sumo, consider this your friendly introduction!

Episode 29 - Feel Like Funkin' It Up (II): Finding Dory
After the false start of Episode 28, which is best summed up as a cruel and extended jape on our weary fanbase, the Puro Pourri Podcast boys are back to actually (genuinely, we promise this time) begin to dissect the storied careers of the Funks in Japan. We kick off by going back to the 1970s and comparing Dory and Terry's efforts in NWA title matches in that decade. Who will thrill us and who will bore us to tears? Gee, I fucking wonder. MATCHES: Jack Brisco (c) vs. Dory Funk Jr. (Two out of Three Falls Match for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship) (AJPW New Year NWA Champion Series 1974, Day 5) (AJPW, 27 January 1974) Terry Funk (c) vs. Jumbo Tsuruta (Two out of Three Falls Match for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship) (AJPW New Year NWA Champion Series 1976, Day 17) (AJPW, 11 June 1976)
