Jon Bernthal and Kurt Angle in the same video is something I never knew I needed in my life.

Dude !! I can't say how much this meant to me, I'm 62, struggling with my back, been really down in the dumps, looking at nothing but dark times....when Kurt talked about kicking painkillers and doing it for his family, while not having high self esteem, that hit me like a hammer...ain't gonna say listening to how y'all deal with tribulations has changed my life, but I KNOW there's hope, I'm going to keep trying. Thank you, and please pass that on to Kurt if you read this

I look at Kurt and my body immediately gets aches and pains, lol. The dude has dedicated his body to his craft(s) over the years. Holy shit.

Not only Kurt won, he won with a Broken Freakin Neck

Man, knowing Kurt struggled with addiction hits me real deep, he's an absolute stud for beating it and I hope one day that I can beat it for as long as he has. Big props to Jon for being the most attentive podcast host I think I've ever seen.

Watch how intensely Jon listens. This is what makes him a great interviewer. He’s genuinely listening to Kurt and allowing the conversation to flow.

I always knew Bernthal was cool but I when I saw his Hot Ones ep I was so happy to see how normal of a guy he still was through the fame. And seeing this now, I’m a huge wrestling fan so finding out that Bernthal is actually married to Kurts niece is just the coolest thing ever.

Kurt was good in WWE but flourished in TNA. He is definitely on my Mount Rushmore of wrestlers. This was a great sit down!

Kurt Angle brings back happy memories of watching WWE every weekend, as a kid. Now I'm an adult watching this interview I can reminisce and appreciate the man behind the name. Thanks Kurt for sharing your struggles. Respect to you & hope you find happiness within. Thanks Jon for sharing your personal history. I feel the effect of your podcasts throughout the week. Inspires me to work hard & love my family & what I do.

Kurt has always shown so much wisdom and humility in interviews. You get a real sense of his pain and strength from his coldly sincere words. He was a great talent in wrestling and went on to have an illustrious professional wrestling career. Listening to him is like listening to Obi Wan, a wise and seasoned master.

So basically for The Punisher role Jon took inspiration from his father in law 😅 Damn i love the podcasts here! We need more of these Jon!

he considers himself the worst athlete in his family and he won an olympic gold medal…. he turned his weakness into his strength, that is what it takes to be the best at anything.

Keep these up Jon! Really well produced, and I love how engaged you are when your guest speak. 🔥🇦🇺

Two real human beings having a chat. So f***ing excited to have found one of my hero's got a podcast! Great interview Jon! Kurt will always be one of my favourite wrestlers of all time.

Kurt is an exceptional human. Flawed, obsessively driven, and a huge inspiration

Didn't know John did podcasts. Glad to be a subscriber. Question: When the hell is disney going to give you a full feature Punisher film? And a couple more seasons too, why the hell not.

When I see Bernthal coming out of his truck, he still has the feel of the Punisher, you know he means business. Big up on the channel and show, it is refreshing, and when the Punisher speaks, you listen.

Absolutely one of the best podcast on the Internet! I don't listen to music anymore because it doesn't matter how good the music is you can only hear the same song a couple hundred times before you're sick of it. This channel should have at least two 3 million subs. UR THE MAN JOHN BIG INSPIRATION TO MANY OF US 🇺🇸💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏼

If Netflix ever shoots more seasons of The PUNISHER,Kurt Angle needs to be a special guest or have a cameo!

I've been waiting for something like this ever since Jon mentioned Kurt Angle was his uncle-in-law on the Hot Ones podcast 🤯 Such a good interview.

Jon is actually really good at interviewing people. Asks good questions and listens well

Not just a phenomenal athlete, but a brilliant showman. He found a niche as a heel in wrestling that no on knew existed, and he did so well that people ended up loving and rooting for him in spite of it all

I really enjoyed the interview. I've been a fan of Kurt since he started in wwf/E. He's my child hood hero. It was nice to see him talk about having low self esteem. It's something I struggle with and it makes me feel less alone hearing it from someone I looked up to as a kid.

Love, love, Kurt’s delivery, and his relaxed style.

Incredible interview! Loved the insight and the conversations!

I did not know Jon had a podcast and the chemistry between these two is incredible. Subbed!

I just finished watching the one with Shia La...however you write his name, and it was an amazing interview. You have a very amazing podcast here, you're doing gods work.

John.Bernthal is one of my fav actors since the walking dead. Remember b4 the punisher and all his other movies I actually talked to him on Twitter once..cool dude and great actor

It’s amazing how you’re image of someone can change so much just from listening to them talk about their life, how they grew up, and just their thoughts. Kurt Aingle is a pretty cool dude! I’ve always loved Jon Bernthal. His work is amazing and he just comes across as a very genuine human being.

As a person from Pittsburgh (I actually went to High School with Kurts wife) I can verify everything they talked about in this interview. The things they say about his family are legendary here and Ill be honest, hearing him talk about 'being humble' and the melancholy that everyone experiences is really heart-warming. I didnt know I needed to hear this, but I really appreciated it.

I have met Kurt twice and he is a genuinely nice man!

It genuinely breaks my heart to hear Kurt Angle say he doesn't love himself. He's been an inspiration and hero to so many and is an all around great guy. I hope that he is able to find peace within himself and get some of the happiness he gave them all.

To hear a badass like Jon Bernthal, acknowledge someone else as being a tough guy really says something, especial his father-in-law Mark Angle. 💪

Met Kurt in '02 as part of a park security detail. Love this guy. He took my banter so well

I needed this today. Thank you Jon, Kurt, and everyone involved.

I love the resilience. Breaks his neck 5 times, says the drugs would have gotten him lol absolute unit

Didn’t expect this what an interesting well spoken and intelligent guy kurt is I’m not a wrestling fan but really enjoy seeing great athletes with a great story also seems a really nice guy and very honest and humble greetings from London 👊

You’ve done a great job Jon. Kurt is by definition a Real One for sure. Thank you!

Amazing episode. Great interview. Kurt is such a humble guy. The video and audio quality is fantastic.

I loved everything about the pod, genuinely felt as if I was in the backyard with y’all, just talking grown folk talk. That hour flew by, seemed like 15 minutes. Subscribed

Kurt. Please bring some of this raw and authentic content onto the Kurt Angle Show podcast! This was so good

I just found this podcast. I wish I had learned about it sooner. Huge fan of Bernthal. He seems so down to earth and is a great interviewer. He doesn’t interrupt and asks the right questions. Keep rocking!! 💪💪

Such a great and insightful interview. So much respect for this man.

I really hope Jon Bernthal keeps this podcast channel going, it will definitely grow into a successful channel. I'm a big fan of the real down to earth podcasts with realistic points of view. I listen to podcasts like this all the time whilst driving to work and back.

Huge fan of both of these men. Love everytime I saw Jon on a podcast. Excited to stumble on his own. Looking forward to more!

this podcast hit different because i grew up watching wwe so it’s a blessing to hear kurt talk about his life and what he went through with wrestling

Family bond I feel it, good to see this for you. Loved the episode, love Kurt Angle Keep at it!

Absolute LEGEND! Way to go Kurt glad to see you doing great and staying well. Jon is awesome too for having him on. Love the authenticity of the show in general.

Such an awesome interview, I could listen for hours , also being from Pittsburgh made extra special, love all the stories.... This is one of the best podcasts out there

First time I’ve ever listened to this podcast. Just ran across it. Blown away. Looking forward to others.

This is truly an awesome sit down. You ask the real questions and have real chemistry with your guests. Thank you for this Jon !!

His Olympic years were a living hell, he's survived the worst and made it to the top

Wow,this was the conversation I didn't know I had to see. Not only starring two of my favorite performers but learning they're related to boot?! Awesome video,loved hearing about Kurt's recovery ( I'm with ya too..) and all the great family stories. That was a fast hour and I could've listened for hours more without being bored. Legit had a smile on my face almost the whole video from how genuine and refreshing and funny it was.Thanks for that.

Kurt is one of the greatest of all-time & one of my favorite Wrestlers & happy i came across this. You can tell he's in a better place by him really letting himself out like this.. 💪🏼

Jon is one of my favorite actors and the fact that he’s doing these is even more exciting and something cool to look forward to. Keep up the great content Jon!!!

Great episode, thank you for this Jon. I didn't know you had this show until I saw this. What a back story, the Angle family, I never knew any of that as I never watched professional wrestling.

A very insightful interview. very insightful. Kurt Angle lived one hell of a life and he should be proud of himself.

Here again to see this amazing podcast. I actually was watching it with my friend who is in another country. We just loved it! Seeing Kurt Angle brought back so many great childhood memories when my dad and I watched WWF/WWE. The Attitude Era and the birth of Raw and SmackDown! Oh man, it was just amazing. And hearing his story about the politics, how wrestling was then and how it is now. My dad and I watch documentaries and hearing some we just cry at what these men and women had gone through. And hearing about the addiction that he had... My father has been sober for almost 40 years, I have never seen him drunk or doing drugs. And to see Kurt doing so much better and feeling better himself as a whole just brings a huge smile on my face. God Bless him! And thank you for bringing up the opioid epidemic. I work in Health Insurance under customer service and hearing customers complain about their painkillers (hydrocodone, oxycodone, vicoden) being denied at their pharmacy when it's Medicare trying to make sure that there is no one abusing these medications. And I don't think many people do believe that this is a serious crisis that can be fixed. Granted, it will take some time; but we can fix this and find ways to help end this epidemic. Jon, as usual, amazing episode! Love you, your family, and your beautiful dogs! Keep it up and I can't wait to see next weeks episode.

This show is top notch. These stories are something that I didn't know I needed in my life. Thank you Jon and guests. You guys are all the Real Ones!!

Don't know how I've missed this series but this was awesome. Very interesting from start to finish. Well done John. Subbed.

One of the greatest in ring workers of all time, the pace Kurt could execute matches is nearly unmatchable and his execution of moves in the ring was flawless.

Great interview! I'm a big fan of Kurt Angle in his early years with WWE. He was so hilarious!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I loved the storyline between his "LOVER'S QUARREL" with him, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon! Lmao! Great entertainment!

Oh MAN this is such a wonderful conversation. Gosh, I didn't know I needed this. Well done.

Popped up on my KZfaq feed randomly. Immediately subscribed! Didn't know you had a channel. I'm a 41 year old with over 20 years in the military. Met many REAL dudes, and Jon, you are one of them. Good luck on your channel brother.

Jon brenthal podcast? This is awesome!! Can’t wait to see its growth!

Keep bringing that heat Jon. Awesome podcast. 🔥

Wow, so glad I found your podcast. Absolutely riveting interview, really great stuff man.

Kurt was literally my favorite wrestler growing up everybody was so annoyed by him but I fucking loved him

Wow such a great interview! I’ve watched Kurt my whole life and it’s so cool to get more insight on his life 🤞🏼

Huge respect for Kurt, he talks like it’s no big deal what he has achieved. I beg to differ it’s a Massive achievement and all my respect to ya Kurt!! Thanks for this Jon, grew up as a fan of Kurt in the attitude era and was blown away by his wrestling but more so his acting & comedy timing, my mates and I would literally be laughing our asses off talking about it over a beer later that day!!

Was really good episode one of the best I believe, Kurt is such a humble man and the honesty was refreshing!!! Thankyou for the memories as a kid Kurt through the attitude era...priceless!!!! Well done JB these are great little honesty sessions ✌🏽👌🏽

I just have to say I'm a huge fan of yours Jon and of Kurt angles. Listening to Kurt talk about his addiction And hearing about our similar experiences. Seeing how real you guys are and your family is. Its really inspiring this was a wonderful Podcast thank you for making my day a little better I hope I get to meet you both someday it would be an absolute honor. Keep fighting the good bites brothers

Me, as a wrestling lover and good acting lover, my man... you've just made my night wholesome. Gracias, hermano... gracias por traer las cosas reales, a los reales.

So glad you have a podcast Jon. One of my favorite actors man. Has worked with some legends and is my favorite Frank Castle for sure. I hope nothing but good things for you my guy.

Thank you for all the childhood memories kurt! One of my favorite wrestlers ever.

Right before he retired and cleaned up Kurt got pulled over in our town an got locked up but the whole time he was calm and pleasant person even with the situation he found himself in he really is a great person and we all have those rough roads and im glad he made it through his

Great interview ... learned alot about Kurt... and everything he said about PA is completely true! Being from pa and a wrestler it is the wrestling state bar none.. I went to state at Hershey in second grade ! Had no idea he was married into the fam! Great cast

Great episode, great show. Jon is a great interviewer. He asks concise and thoughtful questions. Then actually listens to the answers and responds accordingly. Just great.

Great interview. Kurt is 1 of my top 10 WWE favorites. Also one of the reasons why I kept staying a fan. 🤙🏽

How have I never knew they were related? One of my favorite wrestlers growing up and one of my favorite actors.

MY KURT ANGLE STORY: I met Kurt Angle in August of 2003 right after Summer Slam in the Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. I worked for TSA and just had an encounter with Tripple H at the terminal. I was eating alone inside the back end of Nathans hot dogs inside terminal (Away from public view). When this massive body builder with a hat came by and asked to sit next to me. I was like yeah and then right away i was like WAIT!!! Are you (Kurt Stopped me) and I was in awe. I had just watched him and Brock go at it, now here he is in front of me. I didn't want to bother him eating so left it at that, then he started to talk to me. We had a conversation for about 15 mins before i had to leave back to work. This man is a true gentleman and Olympic Hero, "ITS TRUE, ITS DAMN TRUE!!!!!!!!!"

what a great interview- loved seeing the vulnerability

Kurt Angle was so great as a heel. I loved watching him. Jon is one of the coolest guys. I love everything he does.

I’ve been a huge fan of both Jon and Kurt for years and this is another reason why! What a great genuine sit down conversation 👊🏻

Just found this podcast you've gotta have Uncle Joey on! You two are always great together. Thanks for putting this out and all the work you put into the Punisher you're so respectful too all the fans.

Awesome interview. Kurt Angle is one of the all-time, Mt. Rushmore greats on every level. It's true. It's damn true.

Wow what a great interview, we love Kurt and the Angle family here in the Burgh, they are the epitome of hard work, toughness and perseverance! 🤘🏼💪🏼

I have really enjoyed this podcast, great conversation, waiting for more!

Not only a hell of an actor but one hell of a person 🙏🏼 keep spreading positivity 🤙🏼

Angle's rise to fame in the WWF is virtually unparalleled

So cool you guys are family. Took this podcast to a great level. Thank you for sharing your family stories.

One thing i did not know i would encounter on youtube: The Punisher having kurt angle on his podcast.

just finished. and hell yeah..I thought I knew Kurt Angle, learned so much more on your podcast than most typical wrestling podcasts with him

Met Jonny B at least 5 different times over the last 5 years or so and the guy is a class-act every single time. One of my favorite actors, and I’m hoping for Jon to interview the Realest of ALL the Real Ones; himself!

Just found this channel - love Jon through his movies...and love his laid back interview style...subscribed!!

Amazing Podcast Jon! Thank you for the content, keep em coming!

Huge fan brother! Would love to see you keep up with this. Rogan took years building his, you for sure build yours too. Good luck with this brother!

Love this JB!! This is my new favourite pod. Usually have these types of shows in my ears at work. Not this one! I have to watch and experience this one fully at home! Engaging, intense and humbling. Fantastic stuff guys 💪🏽💪🏽

Amazing show man, I have watched two episodes and im addicted to the rawness and realness of this

Kurt has been my favorite wrestler since I was a child. I am happy ,that he is in a good place. I wish him all the happiness in the world.
