Despite hosting one podcast for every day of the week, Thompson is actually a successful Mortgage Broker by day. Based out of Huntsville, Alabama, Thompson has helped hundreds if not thousands of people over the years pay for their forever homes. First Family Mortgage isn’t solely in Alabama, either. The company operates in 42 of the 50 United Stat...
Conrad Thompson is indeed a Flair by marriage. He had met The Nature Boy years ago when he was collecting Ric’s beautiful Olivia Walker robes. He would eventually come to meet Naitch’s oldest daughter Megan and the two hit it off. Related: The Four Horsemen's 5 Most Heroic Acts (& Their 5 Most Treacherous) Conrad has mentioned over the years that h...
The Podfather’s entry into pro wrestling came thanks to his love and support of ECW. In 2012, Thompson had ponied up a sizable donation to a Kickstarter campaign for a documentary on the hardcore promotion. The donation put Thompson and his wrestling buddies at a tier high enough to merit a visit and a sit down with Shane Douglasto watch the movie....
One of those chance meetings was with The Nature Boy and the two hit it off swimmingly. Naitch would call Conrad to hang out, go drinking, and even hang around backstage at WWE events. When CBS called Ric to do a radio show, he asked his new bestie Connie to help and Wooooo! Nationwas born. Considering Flair doesn’t have the greatest attention span...

As legend has it, Connie asked Bruce “what happened when The Radicalz came to WWE?” With Prichard’s long-winded answer, Thompson knew that this could and should be a podcast. After it took some convincing and recording a few s...

Some fans get hooked when they’re young and stay hooked no matter what. Others, like Thompson, had grown a little bored of the product and went away. But during The Attitude Era, he had come back around only to leave (like a swath of fans did) shortly after it ended. The big event that helped bring Connie back for his “current run” of fandom was th...
The Podfather started collecting Ric Flair robes years ago. He even has lent robes to The Nature Boy to wear for his appearances (most notably during his 30 For 30 Special). That’s not all of the merchandise Thompson has gotten his hands on over the years. Everything from boots worn by the likes of Andre The Giant and Dusty Rhodes to ring skirts, t...
Currently, Thompson hosts one podcast for every day of the work week - 83 Weeks, Arn, What Happened When, Grillin’ Jr, and Something To Wrestle. Lately, especially with some of his co-host’s hectic schedules, the shows do tend to run together and cover similar topics. However, if you’re a die-hard craving more, The Podfather has a Patreon that fans...
Tony Schiavone might give Connie the business about it on WHW, but despite all of the success Conrad has had piggybacking off the industry, he has always proclaimed that he is just a fan and nothing more. It’s actually part of his success, more often than not, he brings the fan perspective to his podcasts and is able to take some of his audacious c...
