    Top 2 Icons of All-Time
    This podcast has everything you could ever want! Expert analysis, quick wit and the gift of being a blessing every week. With that said, there are 2 icons in world history. The first being the greatest musician to grace our fine Earth, the legendary Chris Cornell, and the other being the coolest cat at the soccer field, the smartest man in the room and the one who holds BTT together…Doc F’ing Turner!

    Unprofessional, the way you like it
    Not for everybody, the relationship between the hosts is the real highlight. Great fun talking about some of the best wrestling ever.If Mike would just things under control, it would be even better. As a bonus, this is the only podcast with a lesson proper Thanksgiving etiquette.

    Accurate Greatness Personified…
    BTT is most definitely that!!! Mike, Doc, and Harper know their stuff. If they aren’t working off of first hand memory, they obviously do their research. They make this show so much more enjoyable than Conrad, the Alabama Spot Monkey. So, if you haven’t done so yet, do yourself a favor and listen to Booking The Territory. Oh Yeahah!!!

    The Best Friends You’ll Never Have
    There are so many great things to say about this podcast: unfiltered, funny, real and all centered around old-school wrestling. Doesn’t get much better than that. However, I’m going to highlight the ONLY negative. After listening to just one episode, you will want to hang out with these guys. You’ll want to be a guest on the show. You’ll wish you could get drunk with Doc and listen to Soundgarden. You’ll want to go to Kenny’s Key West with Harper. You’ll want to try and convince Mike to get back in the ring for one last match (“Mike?” what’d you got to high school with him?) Those things will probably never happen. But, you can enjoy this show every week and pretend these guys are your best friends from high school (if you graduated in the late 80’s or early 90’s). What more can you ask for? 5 stars.

    What a show. If your on the fence. Give the boys a listen. Don’t bother being woke or offended around the Menace, Doc and the Superstar Chris Harper. And if your really cool. And I know you are. Join the Patreon Army and that’s an order!!!! Book It B.

    BTT Is Podcast Gold!
    If you grew up watching southern wrestling like I did then the Booking the Territory is the podcast for you! Old school wrestling talk mixed with unprofessional comic genius. Hardbody Harper is the wild card and you don’t dare miss a minute of the show because he is going to pop you when you least expect it! Doc Turner is the snarky spot monkey who fills in the gaps with hilarious takes. And make sure you give Mike Mills his flowers, The Menace brings it all together! The best wrestling podcast going today!

    Best of the Best
    This show is the most reliable listen in all of podcasting. New episodes drop every Thursday night, just in time for a Friday listen. The boys are always entertaining, insightful, and even a little Raw, which adds a certain charm to the show. Go get ‘em Superstar!

    The Most Irreverent Fun You Can Have Re-Living the NWA/WCW/SMW Days
    All the way live! I could fill up this review with a bunch of inside jokes trying to get read on air but would prefer to be helpful to folks looking through ratings. Tremendous fun, great rapport between the hosts, and good insight and observations from the 80s/90s era of NWA/WCW. Obligatory “i wish the Mid South show was still going on” comment here. If you grew up watching this era or if you’re just looking to go back and enjoy it now for the first time, this show provides a great primer and guide along the way. 5 stars.
  • Hogband
    Best wrestling podcast ever
    I’ve been listening to the boys for about 5 years now. It’s must listen each and every week. I’m also a subscriber to their Patreon stream. The episode on Harper getting some with his now girlfriend during the middle of a pandemic is worth the price of admission. Mike is the man. Harper is the SuperStar and Doc is Doc! Love these guys.
  • Junkyard Dragon
    Bringing the heat and cracking me up.
    Babyface champion Hardbody Harper goes the the distance with Doc Turner when ref Menace isn’t counting him out (or waiting on his call). They bring enough expert analysis to 30 year old matches, vile humor, and not enough Bruno talk to make me look a fool as I listen on the 1.5 hour commute to Boston. Thanks guys; you’ve got me feeling like I’m 15 again (at least for an hour a week). Cheers!
  • dognuts15
    Awesome show
    Love all three of you guys, I’m in your guys age group so you bring back a lot of memories, thanks for the quality entertainment.
  • John Van Damage
    Thank you for being absolutely perfect
    Mike Mills & Co. murder every episode. Wicked fun, hilarious and informative with great takes, bad takes, deep state takes, woke takes, this podcast network has a flavor for all wrestling fans and a robust library of wrestling goodness! Any wrestling fan will be perfectly satisfied in adding BTT into their rotation. Thanks for the moments, fellas. Keep doing what y’all are doing. P.S. - Doc….good luck with Rd 2 of the rollercoaster ride that is Cryrie
  • Joseph Ice
    The Best Podcast period!
    This is the one and only podcast that will get my money. Mike Mill is hardest working podcaster in the business, except if the Mid-South Podcast. Mike Crockett brings knowledge of the northeastern territories, WCCW historian Lance Peterson and Hardbody Harper is the best wrestling personality not in the WWE or AEW! They cover the classic 80’s and 90’s wrestling promotion from the NWA, SMW, ECW, and WCCW. If you want to laugh and enjoy pro wrestling, this is the podcast for you.

    Guaranteed Not To Bust, Rust, Or Collect Dust
    Allow me to once again sing the praises of the BEST rasslin podcast in the biz today. I don’t care if the guys are talking about how boring the Z-Man is, how ridiculous Arachnaman was for a gimmick for Brad Armstrong, the utter ineptitude of Van Hammer, or Jake Roberts using a snake to do the Javorsky on that atrocious Heroes Of Wrestling PPV, I’m ALWAYS entertained by BTT. Deep State Harper for President, be blessed and be a blessing! Ducky in JCP Country
  • Mikey in DFW
    BTT shows ya how the cow eats the cabbage
    Between Harper’s wildlife escapades, Doc working the marks into a shoot, and Mike working stiff on property taxes and landscaping, this trio gets more tang than Ricky Morton and Stan Lane in 1987. These industry insiders cover the events right down the middle while hilariously calling it in the ring. And have you checked out the Patreon content? Well worth the investment. It’s all a work, brother, except for this show. BTT IS A SHOOT!

    Eight years
    I’ve been listening to this outlaw mud show for right at 8 years and boy is it tree mend dus (as mike says). Doc is great, Harper is a super star and mike, well he’s there. Chris S

    A Wrestling Podcast Like No Other
    The BTT Podcast continues to be one of the wrestling podcast I listen to despite my waining interest in most wrestling podcasts. As you know the podcast world is flooded with many shows, but you guys bring the entertainment weekly. I’ve been listening since the beginning and I’m thankful for the many laughs. There’s been some fun trips down memory lane, you all keep me company during some insane workdays. I may have been a poor kid who grew up in Appalachia. I spent my teen years at tons of SMW shows, but FYI Doc I wasn’t one of the “mutants” you made fun of continually. Proud of my mountain roots, but managed to garner 2 masters degrees, sorry no time to work on that PhD yet Doc. Thanks Mike, Doc and Harper for your continued work to share the old school rasslin’ with the world.

    The Gift that keeps on giving..
    This podcast stands alone as an Oak in a field of weeds when it comes to other shows. The only reason they have yet to do a “best of” is because they would have to replay their entire catalogue. Doc is the heel that you eventually come to cheer when you realize he has been correct the whole time, Harper is the Superstar you are willing to wait for, and Mike is the secret weapon that holds it all together. You will feel like you are talking to your old friends while learning about boogie time machines, swamp monsters, ducks on windshields , unincorporated communities in decline, how to really spell relief, and what to say at Thanksgiving dinner. Oh, and they cover rasslin’ too. Thanks guys for doing that vodoo that you do so well.
  • TheJoeyHarris
    Great Show
    This show is one of the highlights of my week. The guys are hilarious and insightful. They all deserve Rolexes for what they do.
  • Eunuch Rock
    Circle Circle Doc Doc
    THE definitive wrestling podcast by two men who are straight up over it and a grown man-child in desperate need of printer toner. BTT is dedicated to bringing you the most insightful and hilarious wrestling commentary without ever taking a week off. Doc fits recording in between youth soccer games, Harper occasionally shows up and Mike holds it all together like only the bassist from R.E.M could. Cheaper than therapy and better than listening to ad reads. I'm not saying BTT brought down the Berlin Wall, but I'm not saying it didn't...
  • Chickenandwaffles09
    Unlistenable
    Made it thru one hour at 1.75x. Bad. Turned it off.
  • Juan 850
    Excellent!
    Whether it’s talk about classic wrestling or social commentary from Hardbody Harper, this podcast delivers an exceptional show on every listen.
  • Spayspay
    Not kid’s stuff
    I gotta hand it to these guys. When life is hard, listening to this show gives me fast relief.
  • RetroRobNY62
    Like talking to friends
    Great old school wrestling podcast. They make you feel like part of their group. Doc is the first Cowboys fan I haven’t wanted to choke. 5 plus stars even outside of the Tokyo dome !
  • Kenny from St Louis
    Looking for something new
    I was born and raised on the Wrestling at the Chase. Been a fan of pro wrestling for 50 plus years. The world of podcasts wrestling podcasts were very new to me until 2018. I found the Huntsville guy and enjoyed Tony Schiavonne’s show but needed something new. I took a chance on BTT and I’ve been hooked ever since. Mike, Doc, and Harper are the best! If you’re a fan of JCP or most any southern wrestling you’ll love these guys. Place all sensitivities aside and enjoy ride. Thanks guys for doing what you do. Kenny from St Louis

    New listener here
    So I’m one of these new listeners that you guys were speaking of…Episode 915 was the first time I heard you guys and I gotta say I’m now subbed and this has become my new favorite podcast -Isaac from Action Wrestling News -
  • Chris Zaucha
    Hi
    More Motörhead talk on this show than any other wrestling podcast. Should be 6 stars. I want to add to this. As far as Patreon membership goes with BTT, you absolutely get the most value for your dollar. Plus I really like the TurboGrafx-16 talk as well as Sega Genesis 10 zillion stars. Update No need to read this on the show, guys. I never miss an episode, you already know I love you guys. Keep up the good work.
  • Grant Scott Ellis
    A great podcast about wrestling and everyday life
    How has this podcast lasted so long when others have failed? Because Mike, Doc and Hardbody Harper care about wrestling and Buddy Landel have them almost an endless amount of great material.
  • 111#fann
    #1 Show in all of podcast land
    Thanks guys for all the great content and for being there every single week without putting”BEST OF SHOW” every other week. 🤘🏼🫡😶‍🌫️
  • Buhbuhjay36
    That’s Nice
    Old-school wrestling reviews at its finest. Love to hear you guys every week. Hearing Doc and Hardbody audibly drool over Woman or Missy Hyatt cracks me up, while Mike is trying to stay on track. Mike, Sting was/is horrendous on the mic. Doc, Tom Zenk shouldn’t have been given any kind of push. Marginal talent at best. You three gentlemen each deserve a Rolex.
  • Eric101775
    The Benchmark
    Without a doubt, these guys and this podcast are the measuring stick that all others are judged. There mix of knowledge, experience, humor, etc is what makes this a must listen to show for all those who harken back to the days of wrasslin! Thank you gentlemen!!!
  • Stus Show Fan
    Great Wrestling Discussion
    If you like old school wrestling along with unprofessionalism and humor, this podcast is for you.
  • Totten-Author
    Second Review
    There isn’t a better or filthier podcast out there. Doc’s humor is just my speed, Harper is hilarious, and Mills as the straight man is perfect. This isn’t for drips like the D-Man (may he never foul our airwaves again) or the brain dead legions or the mortgage mark, but people who like raunchy comedy and old school rasslin. BTT has helped keep me going during some rough times, and I appreciate all that they do.

    The filth never stops
    Every dog needs a bone to chew on. BTT is that bone.

    Classic Wrestling Discussion is Just The Beginning
    I recently came across BTT when I was going through as many old NWA Saturday Night TBS shows I could watch on Peacock. I heard something insane come out of Michael PS Hayes’ mouth (or, more accurately, was censored off the broadcast). I looked online to see if anyone else had ever discussed this, and lo and behold, BTT devoted time to this incident on two consecutive podcasts. Now, as I continue to make my way through the Peacock episodes, I follow every one by listening to the corresponding BTT episode. Eventually I will get caught up. And the second I can afford to, I will become a Patreon subscriber. Just yell out a big WOOOOOOO! and hit the subscribe button.
  • Aaron C Miller
    Which way is he looking?
    I first heard of BTT on the Mid South podcast. I enjoy listening to Mike Mills on that show and wanted to find out more about Doc Turner and Hardbody Hopper, at first mishearing Mike, and come to find out it’s actually Harper. Any way, whether it’s reviewing the shenanigans in the Smokey’s or the ups and downs of the NWA there is never a dull moment with these three. It’s the only podcast that made me laugh out loud in the middle of a set on bench press when the guys described Robert Gibsons eyes as one looking at the camera and the other looking at the Taco Bell down the road. Thank you for the great content on Apple and Patreon.
  • Astro Aaron
    Awesome
    Mike, Doc Turner and Hardbody Harper get me to laugh so hard. Super entertaining trio!! These guys are airtight, brother!
  • Dead-sawx
    Adds class to my pod repertoire
    Now I ain’t often into listening to Commie sheet; but these fellas make me full mast as I open my ear holes up to Ivan Kollof promos. Heck sometimes I even imagine shaving the Russian Bear’s back. These gents bring the noise Anthrax w Public Enemy style. Sometimes I get an eight ball, a lady of the night, a little tussin and some dank IPAs and Boom! I throw this bad boy on and I’m kickin it with class, style and panache. Highly reco

    Best podcast wrestling or otherwise
    Mike, Doc, and the absolute legend Hardbody Harper are the absolute best in the podcast game today end of story doesn’t matter if you are a wrestling fan or not. There has not been one episode that I haven’t laughed until I cried numerous times. My wife is a respiratory therapist so needless to say it’s been quite stressful over the last two years and these guys have given me hours of laughter and entertainment during times in life that there hasn’t been a ton to laugh about. Please check out Booking the Territory and join there Patreon I did and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made when it comes to podcasts
  • beardogg2002
    Rude and cruel
    This podcast is rude and cruel, I love it. Harper is the star wide receiver of the team. Doc is cocky linebacker. Mike is the quarterback of the team controlling theadness
  • dagwood76543
    A first class wrestling history podcast!
    BTT is an excellent source of historical information and funny moments for all pro wrestling fans.
  • Will Hartke
    Doc is the BEST!
    I can’t begin to tell you how great Doc is on this show. He truly keeps those two curtain-jerker outlaw mudshow bums Mike and Harper in line, and his knowledge of Rasslin’ is unsurpassed. He also paid me to write this. But the show is great anyway!
  • jimmy garvin's hair
    what’s causin’ all this
    best podcast out there and you don’t even know. these fellas are doin’ things on a higher level. check it out
  • masterkinglordgod
    Great podcast
    This one of favorite podcast. I love it when I hear the guys lust over woman. Once I found them, I have never missed an episode.
  • Mike Campbell 411
    Great stuff!
    My job has a lot of downtime, especially during the summer months where I do a lot of traffic control. This podcast is a great way to help pass the time. Mike, Harper, and Doc’s banter is always entertaining, and the recaps and clips bring back all sorts of fond memories from my childhood.
  • ProfessorAce7
    The Best Wrestling Podcast
    Simply put, BTT is the best wrestling podcast out there. It features former outlaw mud show wrestler Mike Mills, the always hilarious superstar Hardbody Harper, and the smartest man in professional wrestling and fellow man of learning and sophistication, Doc Turner. As has been said, the jokes are filthy, which is where so much of the fun comes from. So be blessed and be a blessing and subscribe, give five stars, and open up that wallet and get on their Patreon.
