1
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>It's the lab Fan wrestling podcast, the wrestling podcast that

2
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:37.759
<v Speaker 1>knows the boys need their candy. It's the Lapsed Fan.

3
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:14.079
<v Speaker 1>He's an lapsed fan wrestling podcast with Jack and carn Seo,

4
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>JP Soro.

5
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, the choice was taken away from us. That's what

6
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:22.840
<v Speaker 2>we decry, and we decry the fact that we were

7
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.359
<v Speaker 2>put into a position to adopt media consumption habits that

8
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:27.879
<v Speaker 2>put a whole lot of people out of work for

9
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>no good reason and therefore necessarily diminish the quality and

10
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 2>the risk taking that entertainment producers were willing to take.

11
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>And again with the technology working in reverse influencing how

12
00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:41.680
<v Speaker 2>the art is created. To some degree, it makes a

13
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:43.920
<v Speaker 2>lot of sense, but there are trade offs that didn't

14
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:47.239
<v Speaker 2>have to be made. And this whole subscription thing is

15
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:52.760
<v Speaker 2>just fucking sas software's service, you know, Microsoft and shit realizing, Hey,

16
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:56.359
<v Speaker 2>instead of charging people for software one time, we can

17
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>charge them every single month, and over the lifetime of

18
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 2>their reallyationship with us, we'll get a few more months

19
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:04.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, of money out of them than we would

20
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:08.120
<v Speaker 2>if they had to just pay upfront. And then everyone

21
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:10.240
<v Speaker 2>was like, holy shit, this is a way to make

22
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.759
<v Speaker 2>more money off people. Let's hook it in. We do

23
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.400
<v Speaker 2>it with Patreon. It's the same thing. Patreon is very

24
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>much like that. We keep that engine humming, we keep

25
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:21.319
<v Speaker 2>feeding the fucking flame, we keep throwing shit on the

26
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>fire to be worth the money, and we are. But

27
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:28.319
<v Speaker 2>that's what creates this sort of like whole idea that

28
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:30.879
<v Speaker 2>we're not really making movies to sell the movie on

29
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 2>its own merits. We're making movies to keep Netflix interesting

30
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:37.520
<v Speaker 2>for just one more month, and then it's something else,

31
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.840
<v Speaker 2>and then it's something else, and then it's something else,

32
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:43.400
<v Speaker 2>and everyone's Netflix as far as all the projects they

33
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 2>approve and all of the kind of schlocky ways that

34
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.400
<v Speaker 2>their in house stuff is sort of, you know, pulling

35
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:51.800
<v Speaker 2>from all these random pop culture sources to try to

36
00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:54.960
<v Speaker 2>make one fucking ninety minute movie relevant to as many

37
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 2>people as possible, to the point we don't even know

38
00:02:57.080 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 2>what you're watching. Sometimes it's just this assault on the Senate,

39
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.159
<v Speaker 2>just this assault of reference points. It's it's so postmodern

40
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:07.879
<v Speaker 2>it makes you sick. Frankly, it's like a fucking Andy

41
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Warhol painting of a of a Campbell soup can. Sometimes

42
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:15.000
<v Speaker 2>it's like, here is commercialism presented to you, as you know,

43
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:20.639
<v Speaker 2>art essentially as popular art, popular entertainment, and you're just

44
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 2>you're just assaulted with all of these like sneaky little

45
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.599
<v Speaker 2>references to things that people are trying to sell or

46
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 2>promote or you know, we'll bring this guy, will put

47
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:32.120
<v Speaker 2>him in the movie because he has this audience. She'll

48
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:33.680
<v Speaker 2>be in the movie because none of them can act

49
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:35.759
<v Speaker 2>or none of them are. None of them we're going

50
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:38.759
<v Speaker 2>to elevate the movie, you know, right, I don't know.

51
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:42.400
<v Speaker 2>I just I'm really disillusioned by it. And it's it's

52
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 2>really only there because of the pricing model, the way

53
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 2>we charge and invoids people decides how shit gets made. Yes,

54
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:52.439
<v Speaker 2>very bizarre to me, very cart before the horse, very

55
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 2>tail wagging the dog. You know, Oh, for sure, the

56
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.199
<v Speaker 2>creators should be able, and maybe they are, and I'm

57
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.560
<v Speaker 2>just taking into it dictate how one is to purchase

58
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:07.280
<v Speaker 2>their work. You know, there have been some bands that

59
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 2>have big enough swinging dicks that they just don't go

60
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:12.759
<v Speaker 2>on Spotify, they don't sell their tickets on Ticketmaster. They

61
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 2>just don't. And they can still make enough money to

62
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.839
<v Speaker 2>be more than justly rewarded for their efforts. But one

63
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.560
<v Speaker 2>more turnover of generations and there will be no artists

64
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 2>who come up with anything on their mind besides yeah,

65
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>fitting the way Meta wants to display video right, And

66
00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:37.199
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna tell me that's not a loss. M it's

67
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:40.399
<v Speaker 2>not a big l It's it's it's it's the biggest loss.

68
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:44.639
<v Speaker 3>I don't. I don't deny it. I don't, I don't

69
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.519
<v Speaker 3>deny it. It is. It's bad.

70
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.639
<v Speaker 2>And as Paul says, and God help you back in

71
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.199
<v Speaker 2>the day, if you wanted to run a VCR for

72
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 2>the video store, in terms of them getting extra nervous

73
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:57.680
<v Speaker 2>and extra terms and conditions on your ass, you better

74
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:00.120
<v Speaker 2>bring that fucking thing back and ship shape, pal, or

75
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.160
<v Speaker 2>you're going to be paying four hundred, five hundred dollars.

76
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Paul says, I'm pretty sure my dad had to put

77
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:07.680
<v Speaker 2>me up as collateral to rent a VCR back in

78
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:08.079
<v Speaker 2>the day.

79
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh for sure.

80
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 2>He also says, Paul Dan Spivey is a whole pound

81
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:17.600
<v Speaker 2>of food. Men love. I've heard that William writes that

82
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Hulk comes downstairs in the morning to find hercules and

83
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>his kitchen and eating an omelet. Hulk brother knobs, Dude,

84
00:05:22.600 --> 00:05:25.040
<v Speaker 2>what's going on here? Knobs? I don't know, Terry, he

85
00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:29.120
<v Speaker 2>said he's ah h from Tampa and he lives here now.

86
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.279
<v Speaker 2>It checked out, so I made breakfast like I always do.

87
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:34.839
<v Speaker 3>That's funny.

88
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 2>William also picked up on something we said that pretty

89
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:41.639
<v Speaker 2>much nails it. Poignant or bizarre, whatever comes first. Yes,

90
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:44.279
<v Speaker 2>from your Wrestling Podcast of the Year winner, Thank you

91
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:48.079
<v Speaker 2>very much. It's how I ended up. He remembers as

92
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 2>the owner of half Baked on VHS in two thousand

93
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.279
<v Speaker 2>from a Hollywood video after accident putting the tape, accidentally

94
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.079
<v Speaker 2>putting the tape in a different sleeve and putting it

95
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:58.120
<v Speaker 2>on my shelf for turning instead one of my personal

96
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.519
<v Speaker 2>raw dubs from nineteen ninety eight. Imagine returning to a

97
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:05.600
<v Speaker 2>video store your television recording of raw. Oh that's that

98
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:10.160
<v Speaker 2>would be I would I would I that would be

99
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:13.040
<v Speaker 2>the most embarrassing thing ever. They would send the police

100
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:14.040
<v Speaker 2>to your house to get that tape.

101
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:15.199
<v Speaker 3>Yes, oh of course they would.

102
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 2>He writes. I hadn't gone back to the store in

103
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:18.279
<v Speaker 2>a couple of months. After returning the tape a couple

104
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:19.759
<v Speaker 2>of days late, I thought I was looking for ten

105
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:22.079
<v Speaker 2>looking at rather a five to ten dollars late fee

106
00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:23.959
<v Speaker 2>which I was prepared to pay. I made my selection

107
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:25.519
<v Speaker 2>that night and went to the counter to check out.

108
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.560
<v Speaker 2>The guy working said, hey, you have a late fee balance.

109
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:29.879
<v Speaker 2>I replied yeah, I no, He responded, you want to

110
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:32.040
<v Speaker 2>pay that now? I said, yeah, sure. So we scanned

111
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.480
<v Speaker 2>my tape and said, so that comes to one hundred

112
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.079
<v Speaker 2>and sixty five dollars and now, oh.

113
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:41.720
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no no.

114
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:44.120
<v Speaker 2>I did not pay and left without any tape, and

115
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.720
<v Speaker 2>I was denied the return of my raw tape. Wow.

116
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.040
<v Speaker 2>I got some satisfaction, however, as that location went out

117
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:50.720
<v Speaker 2>of business a few months later, and their books were

118
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:53.040
<v Speaker 2>so messed up that I never heard anything else about it. Yeah. Well,

119
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 2>if they were Nicolin Diamonda to that extent, yeah, he remembers,

120
00:06:57.439 --> 00:06:58.959
<v Speaker 2>God help you. If you fail to return the tape

121
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:01.279
<v Speaker 2>to the rental store, places would charge you late fees

122
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:02.879
<v Speaker 2>up to two weeks, and at a higher price if

123
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.040
<v Speaker 2>it was a new release, and a rewinding fee. If

124
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:07.120
<v Speaker 2>we failed to do so, they would call you multiple

125
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.360
<v Speaker 2>times a day, their threats of ruination for your negligence. Now,

126
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:12.480
<v Speaker 2>I remember they would call you looking for their tape.

127
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 2>I do remember that. Yes, that's how much those things

128
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.120
<v Speaker 2>cost them to carry. Think about that, that you could

129
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:21.519
<v Speaker 2>justify the cost of carrying an employee who would fucking

130
00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:25.720
<v Speaker 2>watch your inventory and call people like a debt collector

131
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.439
<v Speaker 2>when they hadn't returned the thing yet. Now like you

132
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.399
<v Speaker 2>can't give a video away.

133
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:35.040
<v Speaker 3>No, people like run on the opposite correction right right, like.

134
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 2>You're trying to put a bomb in their hand or

135
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:40.319
<v Speaker 2>something exactly. Then after a store value variable of two

136
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:42.000
<v Speaker 2>weeks to a month, said, fuck it, keep it, but

137
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.120
<v Speaker 2>we're charging your account one hundred and two hundred bucks

138
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:47.279
<v Speaker 2>to replace it, and we will turn you into a

139
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:50.199
<v Speaker 2>collection agency. Wow, it's like a big fucking thumbs up

140
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:53.160
<v Speaker 2>to me. We talked about on a recent episode. I

141
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:57.240
<v Speaker 2>believe it was the Colosseum collection. Just funny alternate endings,

142
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.199
<v Speaker 2>funny booking decisions. Oh yes, Savia Vega coming down instead

143
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.160
<v Speaker 2>of Sean Michaels at WrestleMania twelve for instance. Yes, and

144
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 2>of course that sparked no shortage of creativity amongst the

145
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>solar system, and the mailbag started. The mail bag started popping.

146
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Mark writes, mister food, this is funny booking WrestleMania nine. Okay, okay,

147
00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:22.360
<v Speaker 2>mister Fuji throws salt in the hitman's eyes. Yes, And

148
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:25.519
<v Speaker 2>Yakuzina takes advantage new champion. The story progresses as we

149
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.000
<v Speaker 2>know Brett has tended to outside the ring by another wrestler,

150
00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:31.560
<v Speaker 2>and said wrestler is challenged to a title shot right here,

151
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:34.840
<v Speaker 2>right now. The following exchange plays out just like it

152
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:37.879
<v Speaker 2>actually did with hul Kogan, but instead we end up

153
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:46.600
<v Speaker 2>with a new WWE champion, Brian Knobbs. Imagine Brett Hart

154
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:51.919
<v Speaker 2>sending Brian Knobs into Avenge his loss with the salt

155
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:56.559
<v Speaker 2>in his eyes, like Knobs looks to the people and

156
00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:58.279
<v Speaker 2>they're like, Okay, yeah, I guess I want you to

157
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:04.360
<v Speaker 2>all right, Yeah, He's like, come on. A closing scenes

158
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.519
<v Speaker 2>WrestleMania nine is him and his Nasty Boy's muscle shirt.

159
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:10.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, you know, you know how how how uh

160
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:13.639
<v Speaker 3>Hogan does the you know, the with the fist and

161
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:17.120
<v Speaker 3>the like Knob's doing that instead.

162
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:21.840
<v Speaker 2>That's how it would sound. And he's hoisting up the

163
00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:25.039
<v Speaker 2>winged Eagle belt and people like, okay, he's got his

164
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:32.960
<v Speaker 2>pants on with his boots and stirrups. It's like Kidnam

165
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:34.399
<v Speaker 2>the people.

166
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Now.

167
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.559
<v Speaker 3>It just made it just made. I don't know why

168
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:41.120
<v Speaker 3>that triggered into my mind. The idea of of at

169
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:43.679
<v Speaker 3>wrestling a twelve and instead of Sean Michaels Hell, instead

170
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:49.279
<v Speaker 3>of Savio Vega. It's although Montoya.

171
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.879
<v Speaker 2>And the fans are expected to get excited, that's the key.

172
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Just imagine turning up.

173
00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:02.279
<v Speaker 3>Instead he's doing all this Sewn Michael stuff, you know,

174
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:05.399
<v Speaker 3>like doing the stupid dances and whatever. But he's done

175
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.000
<v Speaker 3>with a stupid mask on his face.

176
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:10.639
<v Speaker 2>And here's the thing. Everything you just said is true.

177
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:13.960
<v Speaker 2>He's got the mask on, he's got the gimmick on,

178
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:18.440
<v Speaker 2>He's doing all of Sean's mannerisms. And and Finkel introduces

179
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:23.720
<v Speaker 2>him as the heartbreak kid, Shawn Michael, the heartbreak kid,

180
00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:30.840
<v Speaker 2>as if no one's gonna notice.

181
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.639
<v Speaker 3>Where his fucking what do you wear? Green? Yellow and red?

182
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.159
<v Speaker 2>The yellow John drop on his face look as funny,

183
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:42.000
<v Speaker 2>as as funny as Savio coming down from the rafters.

184
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.679
<v Speaker 2>The resume of twelve was, I I have to Brian

185
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Knobs closing WrestleMania nine, is said A hallt Coke, and

186
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:48.759
<v Speaker 2>I think it's pretty.

187
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:51.679
<v Speaker 3>It's better, it's funny. I mean, that's that's a that's

188
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:55.360
<v Speaker 3>a that's a funny one. Just to like to to

189
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:58.639
<v Speaker 3>figure out who the guy is. That's gonna help. That's good.

190
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.080
<v Speaker 3>That's gonna say, go get do it. That you do it.

191
00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:04.240
<v Speaker 2>That is so such a great point. Like without that

192
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:06.679
<v Speaker 2>Brett component, it's not as anywhere near as funny to

193
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.960
<v Speaker 2>just say Brian Knobs comes out and beats Yoka because

194
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:13.840
<v Speaker 2>it's it's imagined nbs like Brett Hart's like Pinny Yokozuna

195
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:20.759
<v Speaker 2>and I'm just doing the right left all the sweats

196
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:22.759
<v Speaker 2>flying off his mullet was he looks left to right.

197
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:32.120
<v Speaker 2>That's why we do this, man. Oh god, it's tough.

198
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.399
<v Speaker 3>Fucking Knobs.

199
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:42.080
<v Speaker 2>On our uh colisseum collection Randy Savage and Elizabeth Coverage.

200
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:44.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not quite sure what Alex was honing in on

201
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:47.120
<v Speaker 2>as far as what point in the show he decided

202
00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:49.679
<v Speaker 2>to make this declaration, but he wrote, having the co

203
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:53.039
<v Speaker 2>chairman so incredibly clearly illustrate not just what the magic

204
00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 2>of wrestling is, but how it is constructed, how it's

205
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.480
<v Speaker 2>dilapidated in the modern era, and even a peek into

206
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:01.639
<v Speaker 2>a more favorable and refreshing book style. Call me a fanboy,

207
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:04.399
<v Speaker 2>but I live for hearing the graps chopped up like

208
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:08.960
<v Speaker 2>that MM. And we thank you, Alex, because it's something

209
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:11.679
<v Speaker 2>we take pride in and do our best for us

210
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:13.799
<v Speaker 2>to try to say, hey, you know, as pathetic as

211
00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:17.080
<v Speaker 2>we all feel, we don't have to. Wrestling can be good.

212
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Wrestling cannot constantly be a needy, thirsty enterprise. It can

213
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>It can present itself in a confident way that's not

214
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:33.320
<v Speaker 2>constantly being calibrated to X. You know, yes, fuck, hey,

215
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.879
<v Speaker 2>g No, can't wait to penetrate you in real time.

216
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Pal As he sent Mediah the tickets our way and

217
00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:40.919
<v Speaker 2>said he can't wait to be penetrated in real time.

218
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:42.759
<v Speaker 2>Something we can be doing. Something we can do about that.

219
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.639
<v Speaker 2>To the point about, you know, with WTF stuff. How

220
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:52.840
<v Speaker 2>about Jordan's suggestion Colonel Mustafa picture, Colonel Mustafa accept accept

221
00:12:53.399 --> 00:13:01.840
<v Speaker 2>He's dressed like Colonel Rob Parker. I mean, the fact

222
00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:05.120
<v Speaker 2>is he said, you know, he could have said iron chic, right,

223
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:09.679
<v Speaker 2>but he said, Colonel Mustafa, that's very important. Because now

224
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:13.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm swapping out important the Saddama Seine outfit instead of yes,

225
00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:17.320
<v Speaker 2>yes with the Southern accent too. Oh that's the that's

226
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:20.559
<v Speaker 2>the email, Jordan writes, Well, thank you for it, mister Fritz,

227

231
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:33.159
<v Speaker 2>Gorilla is also definitely a guy who orders food for

232
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:34.799
<v Speaker 2>the table that's meant for himself.

233
00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:39.519
<v Speaker 3>Yes, no question, it's for the table.

234
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.480
<v Speaker 2>No Slams in the city. Brendan Brennan's going to be there,

235
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:45.600
<v Speaker 2>he says, Hey, guys, I was actually at MetLife yesterday

236
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:47.720
<v Speaker 2>for soccer game when this dropped. I will not be

237
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:49.840
<v Speaker 2>going to Met Life for the Slams. However, I will

238
00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:52.200
<v Speaker 2>be enjoying a weekend in New York City because of

239
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.279
<v Speaker 2>my favorite college podcast, That's How We Roll. Bro. Brendan

240
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.759
<v Speaker 2>loves the serendipity of Jaws dropping for the fourth It

241
00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:01.480
<v Speaker 2>made some long holiday go by so easy. I love

242
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:04.320
<v Speaker 2>to hear. That's some of my favorite stuff is the

243
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:06.120
<v Speaker 2>holiday drives where we come into play.

244
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:10.879
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, yes, yes, so great. That's it. I love

245
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:15.399
<v Speaker 3>I love doing that. I love listen. There's nothing, there's

246
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:20.519
<v Speaker 3>nothing I I I love very much dropping something special.

247
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:23.759
<v Speaker 2>On a holiday. That just I love that. That always

248
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.600
<v Speaker 2>makes me happy. Yeah, it seems to me. Other podcasts

249
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:28.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of take the holidays off a little bit, which

250
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:32.320
<v Speaker 2>look in theory, I totally support and understand it, especially

251
00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:33.799
<v Speaker 2>if you're trying to make it your full time gig.

252
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.480
<v Speaker 2>But man, that's when we just fucking put our foot

253
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 2>on thes.

254
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.200
<v Speaker 3>But but the thing is, it's like, yes, you want

255
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.440
<v Speaker 3>to take that, you want to take the day off, sure,

256
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:43.080
<v Speaker 3>but then you got to fucking load up.

257
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:44.759
<v Speaker 2>To load up, you gotta be you got to load

258
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:47.600
<v Speaker 2>about people who are in a situation where they need

259
00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:50.799
<v Speaker 2>you during that Because as magical as holidays can be,

260
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:53.000
<v Speaker 2>and I'm talking about the holidays and ducking any holiday,

261
00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:54.879
<v Speaker 2>as great as it can be to be around family

262
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:57.360
<v Speaker 2>and friends, there's going to be downtime. There's going to

263
00:14:57.399 --> 00:15:00.440
<v Speaker 2>be travel time. There's going to be drudgery. There's going

264
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:03.000
<v Speaker 2>to be those moments that we are custom made for

265
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:05.320
<v Speaker 2>where you're trying to bridge a gap in your day

266
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:08.000
<v Speaker 2>because you know you're gonna be like a hamster on

267
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:09.759
<v Speaker 2>a wheel for the next little while, be it sitting

268
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.200
<v Speaker 2>in an airport, riding on an airplane, traveling in a car,

269
00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:15.639
<v Speaker 2>waiting for people to show up, waiting for people to

270
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:18.519
<v Speaker 2>wake up, waiting for people, you know, after for something

271
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:21.120
<v Speaker 2>to do. When people go to bed. That's when the

272
00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:24.559
<v Speaker 2>podcast comes. That's what podcasts count. That's why I can't

273
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:27.360
<v Speaker 2>stand this video stuff because it's like, you can't you

274
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:31.559
<v Speaker 2>can't do that like and also function like the audio only.

275
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Podcasts allow you to move through the world and enjoy

276
00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:37.159
<v Speaker 2>the thing, to do something with yourself instead of just

277
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.039
<v Speaker 2>sit there and try to replicate the couch potato TV experience,

278
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:42.759
<v Speaker 2>which is a wonderful thing in and of itself, but

279
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:45.679
<v Speaker 2>it's not My podcast became a thing. Podcasts became a

280
00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.960
<v Speaker 2>thing because they weren't television shows, because they traveled in

281
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.600
<v Speaker 2>a form and factor that wasn't like that, but at

282
00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:56.759
<v Speaker 2>the same time preserving what's magic about spoken word audio? Yes,

283
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:59.360
<v Speaker 2>what has always been magic about spoken word audio since

284
00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:03.440
<v Speaker 2>the invention of James Says, Montreal, November ninet ninety seven.

285
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:07.240
<v Speaker 2>Survivor Series backstage, Brett gets suspicious and knows something isn't

286
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:09.720
<v Speaker 2>right and he bails. Vince needs a replacement for the

287
00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:20.600
<v Speaker 2>main event entern Tom Brandy waving the Canadian flag flanked

288
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:23.600
<v Speaker 2>by the Heart Foundation, same screw jump finish.

289
00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:24.840
<v Speaker 3>This works for me.

290
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Tom Brandy spits in Vince's face and writes w CW

291
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:33.360
<v Speaker 2>in the air then smashes the announcer stead Brandy then

292
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.360
<v Speaker 2>goes backstage and continues recording the Wrestling with Shadows documentary.

293
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.480
<v Speaker 2>He takes Vince, he sits across from Sean and asks

294
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:44.240
<v Speaker 2>if he had anything to do with it. He uppercuts Vince.

295
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:46.039
<v Speaker 1>On Raw.

296
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:48.360
<v Speaker 2>He goes back to feuding with Mark Merrow on TV

297
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:50.639

<v Speaker 2>have noticed you really are.

312
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:44.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh my professional darts player.

313
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:46.519
<v Speaker 2>Zax's I can confirm the boss did trick my wife

314
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:50.000
<v Speaker 2>on April Foold's Day with his Hogan message. Oh I

315
00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 2>love that I called her cell. She was on a

316
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:53.519
<v Speaker 2>work trip at a time she wouldn't be able to

317
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:55.200
<v Speaker 2>answer and it would go to voicemail. I blocked my

318
00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:57.000
<v Speaker 2>number so it wouldn't show us from me, and left

319
00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:59.559
<v Speaker 2>the Hogan message on her voicemail. We had been it

320
00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:01.640
<v Speaker 2>was beach shop about a month ago. So the idea

321
00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:03.920
<v Speaker 2>she left a card there as possible tell the people.

322
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:08.519
<v Speaker 2>This was basically him asking before Hogan passed obviously, yes,

323
00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:11.319
<v Speaker 2>that you call that you create a cameo essentially where

324
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:14.720
<v Speaker 2>you're calling from Hogan's beat shop as Hulk Hogan saying

325
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:15.680
<v Speaker 2>she left the credit.

326
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:20.160
<v Speaker 3>Card there, Yes, and and just kind of going, you know,

327
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:23.359
<v Speaker 3>just just going with it, and it went in all

328
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:28.680
<v Speaker 3>so many different directions and to the point of, you know,

329
00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:31.839
<v Speaker 3>obviously the paranoia kicked in, but it was a gradual

330
00:18:31.960 --> 00:18:37.119
<v Speaker 3>thing where Hogan was like calling with you know, like

331
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:42.160
<v Speaker 3>concern originally, and then as he got further into it,

332
00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:45.200
<v Speaker 3>he's getting a little more freaked out, and he's getting

333
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:47.519
<v Speaker 3>a little more angry, and he's wondering, why did you

334
00:18:47.599 --> 00:18:50.359
<v Speaker 3>leave this thing in my in my in my beat shop, right,

335
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:53.960
<v Speaker 3>And it was just tremendous. It's nervously one of the

336
00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:57.119
<v Speaker 3>fucking Yeah, exactly. This is one of the funniest fucking things.

337
00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:59.279
<v Speaker 2>Can't pull that off convincingly anymore, can you?

338
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Well, you never know, and not everyone knows he's dead.

339
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:04.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, I guess there's an outside chance of that.

340
00:19:05.960 --> 00:19:08.160
<v Speaker 2>This is the first mailbag since we unleashed the second

<v Speaker 2>years and now he's finally made it in showbiz. Unheard

352

353
00:19:39.599 --> 00:19:42.720
<v Speaker 2>of insight and character detail. It's so fucking rich, you

354
00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:45.799
<v Speaker 2>know it, Abby isolating Evan Hussey to shake him down

355
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:48.640
<v Speaker 2>after a night at the Red Lobster Chef's Kiss. That's

356
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:51.200
<v Speaker 2>my boy, I don't understand how y'all do it, and

357
00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:54.279
<v Speaker 2>happy to keep it that way. But if there's ever

358
00:19:54.279 --> 00:19:56.200
<v Speaker 2>a Q and A and time to talk about sausages

359
00:19:56.200 --> 00:19:58.119
<v Speaker 2>and how they're made, Matt says he's going to ask

360
00:19:58.160 --> 00:20:01.160
<v Speaker 2>about the TLF schedule. Well, from the time we wake

361
00:20:01.240 --> 00:20:03.599
<v Speaker 2>up to the time we have to crash, it's called

362
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:05.359
<v Speaker 2>you how do we do it? It's called sleep deprivation.

363
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:09.319
<v Speaker 2>I hope people appreciate that about about us. You know,

364
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:13.359
<v Speaker 2>we fucking deprive ourselves of sleep. That's what we do.

365
00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:17.119
<v Speaker 3>Yes, because you know that that is that That is

366
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:20.119
<v Speaker 3>the truth. I'm not trying to people want to know

367
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:23.880
<v Speaker 3>that's the ends, but it is. It's it's the absolute truth. Uh,

368
00:20:24.279 --> 00:20:27.480
<v Speaker 3>you know, because no matter what time we finish, we

369
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:28.559
<v Speaker 3>gotta get up at the same time.

370
00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:29.640
<v Speaker 2>That's exactly right.

371
00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:31.400
<v Speaker 3>It's always that's always a thing.

372
00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:36.039
<v Speaker 2>Got to keep the hamster wheel moving. As Holkoken said,

373
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:37.240
<v Speaker 2>can't miss a beat, brother.

374
00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:39.119
<v Speaker 3>Brother.

375
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:44.400

00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:48.400
<v Speaker 2>and Caleb Bowden, thank you for so much for your

377
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.119
<v Speaker 2>increase in pledge the Homie Austin, Hey, JP, I'm trying

378
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:54.880
<v Speaker 2>to find out more. But a company called Capital City

379
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Championship Combat Wrestling in Canada did a show in twenty

380
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:01.279
<v Speaker 2>eighteen called The Departed. JF was on the car just

381
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:01.720
<v Speaker 2>a thought.

382
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:06.279
<v Speaker 3>Listen, okay, but I need to have I need to

383
00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:11.279
<v Speaker 3>have in need, I need to know that it was

384
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:13.920
<v Speaker 3>the name was inspired.

385
00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Also following up on this past email, he writes minutes later, no,

386
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:21.200
<v Speaker 2>actually months later, this C four show took place on

387
00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:24.119
<v Speaker 2>Saint Patrick's Day, which pretty clearly implies a connection to

388
00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:24.960
<v Speaker 2>the film That Departed.

389
00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:30.440
<v Speaker 3>Because it's all fucking Irish SOUTHI punks.

390
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:32.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm seeing if there's anyone that wrestled on this show

391
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:34.720
<v Speaker 2>that is also on cameo, let me know if that

392
00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:37.359
<v Speaker 2>could help steal the case for The Departed qualifying this guy.

393
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Will want to listen. I listen, So do I you

394
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:42.160
<v Speaker 3>want it? So do I? Of course I want love

395
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.279
<v Speaker 3>to dig into the Departed, love the opportunity to dig

396
00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:48.559
<v Speaker 3>in the into the Departed. But you know I need

397
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:52.599
<v Speaker 3>to have I need to have a solid, a solid connection.

398
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:55.759
<v Speaker 2>So explain it. What does it needs? What does it

399
00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:56.160
<v Speaker 2>need to be?

400
00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:00.720
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, for this if the show, if that's show was

401
00:22:01.039 --> 00:22:03.720
<v Speaker 3>they said, yeah, you know what, we we took it

402
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:06.599
<v Speaker 3>from the Departed I'd take it, really, I would take

403
00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:12.119
<v Speaker 3>it because, you know, it was a if you're gonna

404
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:18.559
<v Speaker 3>argue about the GoldenEye situation, because the guy didn't say, yeah,

405
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:23.319
<v Speaker 3>my name was inspired by GoldenEye. He said it was

406
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:28.559
<v Speaker 3>like the response was, yeah, that was part of it. No, No,

407
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:32.640
<v Speaker 3>I just can't buy that, right if, and then he

408
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:35.160
<v Speaker 3>went into what it really meant? You know, so yeah,

409
00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:37.200
<v Speaker 3>maybe it was part of it, but I need a

410
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:40.920
<v Speaker 3>more direct like, yeah, I respect that, this is it right.

411
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:41.559
<v Speaker 3>You can't make it.

412
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:43.640
<v Speaker 2>You can't feel like the guy said yes just to

413
00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:45.559
<v Speaker 2>like be nice to the interviewer.

414
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:50.000
<v Speaker 3>If the right if the promoter says, yes, the depart

415
00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:52.519
<v Speaker 3>is my fucking favorite movie and I named the show

416
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:57.279
<v Speaker 3>because of that movie. Done. Wow, easy, that's an easy one.

417
00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:00.000
<v Speaker 3>It's like it's right there, you know, because there is

418
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:05.480
<v Speaker 3>a direct inspiration in some fashis. There's no wrestlers in there, no,

419
00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:08.079
<v Speaker 3>not that I can see anyway, but listen, there very

420
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.400
<v Speaker 3>well could be. You know, we find people in the

421
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:15.799
<v Speaker 3>weirdest fucking places, in the weirdest places, and unfortunately not

422
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:19.039
<v Speaker 3>everybody has a trivia section. That's a lot of the time.

423
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:21.480
<v Speaker 3>If you look on IMDb, a lot of times you'll

424
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:24.160
<v Speaker 3>find these trivia sections with stunt performers and whatever where

425
00:23:24.200 --> 00:23:27.039
<v Speaker 3>they say also used to be a professional wrestler, and

426
00:23:27.079 --> 00:23:30.000
<v Speaker 3>then that starts. You know, that's the rabbit hole. You know,

427
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:31.920
<v Speaker 3>the door to the rabbit hole is right there, right,

428
00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:38.079
<v Speaker 3>so it all, you know, it just it depends God,

429
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:40.680
<v Speaker 3>but it can, you know, it can happen. It's not.

430
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:44.839
<v Speaker 3>That's that's how we found Glenn Caine. Like you know,

431
00:23:47.200 --> 00:23:49.839
<v Speaker 3>I forget who found that originally, but you know that

432
00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:54.839
<v Speaker 3>was that was it you find they found on IMDb.

433
00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:59.359
<v Speaker 3>It's it's said he's a former professional wrestling referee. You

434
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:04.039
<v Speaker 3>know you find that that that right there gets me,

435
00:24:05.359 --> 00:24:09.400
<v Speaker 3>you know, looking down and seeing where can we where

436
00:24:09.440 --> 00:24:10.519
<v Speaker 3>can we go qualifying?

437
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:14.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, Steve says. Also my grandmother and Mama Sorrow

438
00:24:14.759 --> 00:24:17.319
<v Speaker 2>or kindred spirits. My grandmother always told me and my

439
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:20.440
<v Speaker 2>mother before me to never eat or drink anything from

440
00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 2>a petrol station as they as they quote cake that

441
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:27.519
<v Speaker 2>stuff and oil you can taste it. Ye, that's right,

442
00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:31.000
<v Speaker 2>that's right. I don't I don't think that's the case,

443
00:24:31.039 --> 00:24:34.200
<v Speaker 2>but whatever, No, it's definitely not the case. That would

444
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:35.200
<v Speaker 2>be shut down a long time ago.

445
00:24:35.319 --> 00:24:37.720
<v Speaker 3>That right, exactly that's what. That's what I'm always like,

446
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:39.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, I don't. I just don't think that that's possible.

447
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Steve also taken by the Jaws episode because he says

448
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:46.119
<v Speaker 2>an Irish language teacher was meant to teach us creative

449
00:24:46.119 --> 00:24:48.519
<v Speaker 2>writing when we had transition years, which is meant to

450
00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:51.240
<v Speaker 2>be a year between exam cycles, but instead the teacher

451
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:52.960
<v Speaker 2>spent six weeks playing Jaws on loop.

452
00:24:53.680 --> 00:24:56.960
<v Speaker 3>I got no problem. That's fine, I got no problem

453
00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:57.599
<v Speaker 3>that whatsoever.

454
00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:57.960
<v Speaker 2>That is.

455
00:24:58.000 --> 00:24:58.440
<v Speaker 3>That's a win.

456
00:24:58.720 --> 00:25:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Just wonderful, just wonderful to be able to recall that

457
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:05.920
<v Speaker 2>memory from members of the Solar System. Sean Hemmings, thank

458
00:25:05.920 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 2>you very much for the increase in pledge, my friend.

459
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 2>We appreciate the vote of confidence. Bryce writes, I can't tonight, sweetheart.

460
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:18.640
<v Speaker 2>The boys have sent missives. Must be a fucking feedback show, baby,

461
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:25.039
<v Speaker 2>Scott Michael, I cannot accurately describe the speed with which

462
00:25:25.079 --> 00:25:28.079
<v Speaker 2>I just isolated from everyone in this house as soon

463
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:31.200
<v Speaker 2>as I saw this week's under the cinemat. Jaws is

464
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:34.039
<v Speaker 2>an all time top five for me. I was absolutely

465
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:35.839
<v Speaker 2>obsessed with this film when I was a child. I

466
00:25:35.839 --> 00:25:38.559
<v Speaker 2>own collectibles. I've gone to cons just to see props

467
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:39.920
<v Speaker 2>from the film, and one year I even hit the

468
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Universal Studios ride ten times in one weekend. Wow, because

469
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:45.039
<v Speaker 2>a storm kept a lot of people out of the

470
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:47.640
<v Speaker 2>park and I could not get enough of that shit. Anyway,

471
00:25:47.799 --> 00:25:54.680
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna need a bigger ass. I see you, Chris.

472
00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:56.200
<v Speaker 2>Not only do I see you on your way to

473
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:59.079
<v Speaker 2>the show on August third, but I also see that

474
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 2>you already have a play to stop off at a

475
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:06.680
<v Speaker 2>particular HOGI shop in Delaware. Here we go for the

476
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Asella stop Rover on the way up. So folks are

477
00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:12.640
<v Speaker 2>not only making tracks to join us August third at

478
00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:17.240
<v Speaker 2>the Comedy Village, but they already have their train rides

479
00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:20.960
<v Speaker 2>sandwich lined up. That's it. I mean, that's a beautiful thing.

480
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:25.359
<v Speaker 2>It's very simple. Paul Cogan had an interesting point on Jaws.

481
00:26:25.400 --> 00:26:27.920
<v Speaker 2>He said, he's pretty sure and apologies if you talked

482
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:30.079
<v Speaker 2>about this and I just don't remember it. I'm pretty

483
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:32.559
<v Speaker 2>sure that in the original script, Hooper was supposed to

484
00:26:32.599 --> 00:26:34.119
<v Speaker 2>die in the cage scene, but when they looked at

485
00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:36.200
<v Speaker 2>the footage of the real shark destroying the cage, there

486
00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:37.839
<v Speaker 2>was nobody in it, so it wouldn't make sense.

487
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Kinds I I believe that there is some truth in that.

488
00:26:43.960 --> 00:26:44.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't remember.

489
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:47.079
<v Speaker 2>Spielberg thought the footage was so good he wanted it

490
00:26:47.079 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 2>in the movie and just shot an extra scene of

491
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Hooper's scooping instead.

492
00:26:50.079 --> 00:26:52.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't remember. I don't remember. There there is

493
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:55.799
<v Speaker 3>some there's some truth in that. I believe, I just

494
00:26:55.799 --> 00:26:57.880
<v Speaker 3>don't remember the whole story.

495
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:00.519
<v Speaker 2>He also writes the Jaws poster, but Hogan is the

496
00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:03.400
<v Speaker 2>swimming girl, Intenta is the shark. Oh, there we go,

497
00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:06.119
<v Speaker 2>and that's probably a good shirt. No, we should consider

498
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:10.200
<v Speaker 2>making yep. Can you imagine? He also asks how horrified

499
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Terry would be if he heard someone say the shark

500
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:19.519
<v Speaker 2>is not working. Ooh because MSG one nine six eight

501
00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:21.599
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine. Thank you very much for your pledge, and

502
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:25.160
<v Speaker 2>welcome in to the executive producer, to your Carlos Dallion.

503
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Austin looks down at his phone. The notification shines up

504
00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:31.400
<v Speaker 2>at his face. He looks up. Did you see that?

505
00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Cue the dolly zoom. Everybody get out of the water.

506
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:37.720
<v Speaker 2>I can see Steve fitting in.

507
00:27:39.279 --> 00:27:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Could you imagine? That'd be absolutely amazing?

508
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Talking about why you can't see great white sharks in captivity.

509
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Josh has some insight, some species of shark, he writes,

510
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:49.720
<v Speaker 2>could be successfully kept in human care, but not Great whites.

511
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:51.599
<v Speaker 2>They are made to roam the open ocean, and they

512
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:54.759
<v Speaker 2>have colossal ranges thousands of square miles in some cases,

513
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:56.960
<v Speaker 2>in which they live and hunt. Several attempts have been

514
00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.119
<v Speaker 2>made to capture and hold Great whites, but they always

515
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:01.400
<v Speaker 2>end up slamming into tank walls and refusing to eat

516
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:04.279
<v Speaker 2>until they either die or get released back into the ocean.

517
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:07.319
<v Speaker 2>There's always something that is fucking commitment to the craft

518
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:10.039
<v Speaker 2>right there. This is one of the more electrifying ones

519
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:12.799
<v Speaker 2>we've gotten on Patreon in a while. This is a

520
00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:15.359
<v Speaker 2>as part of our recent Night of Champions live call

521
00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:18.559
<v Speaker 2>from Saudi Arabia the Homiest Salmon, and he writes, as

522
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:21.519
<v Speaker 2>a member of the Solar System working the Middle East territory,

523
00:28:21.519 --> 00:28:24.720
<v Speaker 2>He's on the ground out there, boss flying the lapsed

524
00:28:24.799 --> 00:28:27.759
<v Speaker 2>flag in this sound. I had a chance to go

525
00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:30.000
<v Speaker 2>to this as the land of Saud is right next

526
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.079
<v Speaker 2>door to where I'm based. These Saudi tickets are way

527
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:35.519
<v Speaker 2>cheaper than what TKO was priced for the US and

528
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Europe shows, twenty two d dollars for he writes for

529
00:28:38.079 --> 00:28:40.960
<v Speaker 2>a general seat. So whenever we watch these Saudi shows

530
00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:42.839
<v Speaker 2>and think of the tens of millions they're getting paid,

531
00:28:42.839 --> 00:28:45.920
<v Speaker 2>and that is happening. It's that building is not full

532
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:50.079
<v Speaker 2>because people are paying TKO premium prices. That is very

533
00:28:50.119 --> 00:28:53.559
<v Speaker 2>satisfying to know. Had mixed feelings, he writes on Punk

534
00:28:53.599 --> 00:28:55.599
<v Speaker 2>even coming here. Happy to see him come to this

535
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:57.640
<v Speaker 2>side of the world. But obviously the controversy of these

536
00:28:57.640 --> 00:29:00.200
<v Speaker 2>events is understandable, and he's under a specific microscope. You

537
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:02.839
<v Speaker 2>couldn't script an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm with more

538
00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:05.759
<v Speaker 2>things that could have gone wrong for him in terms

539
00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:07.559
<v Speaker 2>of online reaction to what happened to him this weekend,

540
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:09.559
<v Speaker 2>from the kid getting snubbed to checking in with front

541
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:12.039
<v Speaker 2>Bro Mohammed, which was replayed in the building on SmackDown.

542
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:14.200
<v Speaker 2>So maybe it was planted to the promo to the

543
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:15.839
<v Speaker 2>finish of the match. I like the match for most

544
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:17.720
<v Speaker 2>of it, and Saudi fans do give a great atmosphere

545
00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:19.839
<v Speaker 2>at these but I think Punk is gonna wish this

546
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:21.960
<v Speaker 2>was the Saudi verse and get back to business of

547
00:29:21.960 --> 00:29:24.880
<v Speaker 2>still feuding with Seth for another nine months, and he

548
00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:27.880
<v Speaker 2>said this, I can't believe you wrote this, considering where

549
00:29:27.920 --> 00:29:30.160
<v Speaker 2>we stand today. He followed that up with a quote,

550
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:36.079
<v Speaker 2>Hulk finally passing is going to be weird outlasted his peers,

551
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:40.240
<v Speaker 2>but reputation is worse than ever. They are younger fans

552
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:42.279
<v Speaker 2>who are going to celebrate it, and older ones are

553
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:44.720
<v Speaker 2>going to feel mixed, but ultimately sad for reasons beyond

554
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:47.000
<v Speaker 2>just as death. If that Netflix debut was the last

555
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:49.480
<v Speaker 2>time we see him in WW, what a sad way

556
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:52.160
<v Speaker 2>to go out. But what were we told about? Pain?

557
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:56.039
<v Speaker 2>Can't even imagine how a lapsed tribute would go with

558
00:29:56.119 --> 00:30:00.759
<v Speaker 2>things already covered. But it'll be deserved. That is an

559
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 2>oracle operation right there.

560
00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:04.440
<v Speaker 3>You're damn right well, just you wait.

561
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Mardies, do you wait? Martif? Thank you for the increased pledge,

562
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Miley Ripley, thank you very much for the cake. Welcome

563
00:30:09.920 --> 00:30:12.680
<v Speaker 2>in Hario Vargas. We love it. Thank you very much.

564
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:15.440
<v Speaker 2>Antonio writes to your co chairs. My name's Tony from LA.

565
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:17.119
<v Speaker 2>Been listening to you guys since King of the Ring

566
00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:19.359
<v Speaker 2>ninety four and I've never looked back. Recently, I was

567
00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:21.599
<v Speaker 2>in a car accident in April that messed me up badly,

568
00:30:21.839 --> 00:30:24.079
<v Speaker 2>broken hip, nerve damage and muscle damage. It's been a

569
00:30:24.079 --> 00:30:27.759
<v Speaker 2>pretty rough couple of months. Depression, emotional damage and physical damage.

570
00:30:27.839 --> 00:30:30.000
<v Speaker 2>What's been getting me through these months? To keep fighting?

571
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Take a guest, boss. Some podcasts stuck up your ass

572
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:38.440
<v Speaker 2>by being about the pain. We help people through the pain.

573
00:30:38.759 --> 00:30:40.119
<v Speaker 2>Can we say this? Can we say this?

574
00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:40.599
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

575
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we are your therapy. We are not your therapist. However, Yes,

576
00:30:46.319 --> 00:30:48.599
<v Speaker 2>I listened to at least two to three episodes a day,

577
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:52.119
<v Speaker 2>Antonio says, with all the time I have since the accident,

578
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:54.519
<v Speaker 2>it feels like it's not enough episodes. Thank you for

579
00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:57.039
<v Speaker 2>pounding my ass through these tough moments, and if you

580
00:30:57.039 --> 00:30:59.319
<v Speaker 2>can bless me, if you guys can do backlash O

581
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:02.079
<v Speaker 2>three would mean a lot, especially during this difficult moment.

582
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:05.480
<v Speaker 2>He's looking to get a show in thank you and

583
00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:08.279
<v Speaker 2>like the APA shirt says, keep me doing ass. I

584
00:31:08.279 --> 00:31:11.200
<v Speaker 2>don't think Hogan's on that show. I looked, No, no,

585
00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:14.119
<v Speaker 2>that that's the that's the one you you went to

586
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 2>that one. It's Worcester and wester Yeah, with the Goldberg

587
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:19.680
<v Speaker 2>and Rock, you're gonna you're gonna be fully healed, Antonio

588
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:21.200
<v Speaker 2>by the time that one comes out. But I'm sure

589
00:31:21.240 --> 00:31:23.319
<v Speaker 2>you'll enjoy it when it does, and we'll be thinking

590
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:25.119
<v Speaker 2>of you when it happens. But that's the kind of

591
00:31:25.119 --> 00:31:28.960
<v Speaker 2>thing I mean. Okay, any of us could get hit

592
00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:31.759
<v Speaker 2>by a bus, any of us could get waylaid by

593
00:31:31.799 --> 00:31:35.119
<v Speaker 2>an illness, any of us could break a leg or

594
00:31:35.119 --> 00:31:37.240
<v Speaker 2>break an arm, or be laid up for months at

595
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:42.839
<v Speaker 2>a time. And what's you're gonna tell me it's not

596
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:46.720
<v Speaker 2>better to have in your rotation and routine such a

597
00:31:46.799 --> 00:31:50.000
<v Speaker 2>low ask form of entertainment like the laps fan Wrestling

598
00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:53.839
<v Speaker 2>podcast to lean on. Yeah, you're gonna tell me that

599
00:31:53.880 --> 00:31:56.160
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't go by so much faster for someone in

600
00:31:56.200 --> 00:31:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Antonio's position, where you doesn't have to sit there and

601
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.319
<v Speaker 2>be alone with this thoughts of how limited he is

602
00:32:01.319 --> 00:32:05.359
<v Speaker 2>physically in mentally is the result of what happened to him. Cay,

603
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:10.240
<v Speaker 2>tell me that's not real. Okay, fucked, Hey, yeah, give

604
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:12.279
<v Speaker 2>me a break. Of course it's real. Perhaps the only

605
00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:16.640
<v Speaker 2>thing that is real or great midget, My great grandfather

606
00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:18.720
<v Speaker 2>was a local jobber for the Buffalo Bill Show in

607
00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:21.720
<v Speaker 2>the early twentieth century in Iowas. Tell the people why

608
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:23.920
<v Speaker 2>that's relevant, Well, that's.

609
00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:27.400
<v Speaker 3>That's the Buffalo bill that we talked about, the Buffalo

610
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:31.759
<v Speaker 3>Bill Show during once upon time in the West under

611
00:32:31.799 --> 00:32:34.079
<v Speaker 3>the cinemat So that's pretty that's what.

612
00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:35.160
<v Speaker 2>Were those shows.

613
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:38.559
<v Speaker 3>Those shows were. They were live shows. They were they

614
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:45.119
<v Speaker 3>were basically the the original Western because they were shows

615
00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:48.759
<v Speaker 3>that and and again we talked about how fascinating it

616
00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:53.960
<v Speaker 3>was that these were these were wild West shows being shown,

617
00:32:54.400 --> 00:33:00.640
<v Speaker 3>being being done live, while there was the wild West

618
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:04.000
<v Speaker 3>was still in existence, right, or was if it wasn't

619
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:07.000
<v Speaker 3>necessarily still in existence, it was going away, or it

620
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:11.599
<v Speaker 3>was very close, you know, you know there was. It

621
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:13.200
<v Speaker 3>was just pretty it was very recent.

622
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:15.039
<v Speaker 2>It was you could convince people they were creating a

623
00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:17.759
<v Speaker 2>real live cowboy, right, someone who had loved it, someone

624
00:33:17.799 --> 00:33:20.319
<v Speaker 2>who had done it. And so it was like basically

625
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:23.400
<v Speaker 2>it was it was some k fabe shit amazing talking

626
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:26.279
<v Speaker 2>some wrestling stuff. Yeah, Buffalo Bill comes to town. Come

627
00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:29.880
<v Speaker 2>watch him in his fucking you know frontiersmen ways. Yeah,

628
00:33:29.960 --> 00:33:31.920
<v Speaker 2>So work rate Midget says, my great grandfather was a

629
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:33.960
<v Speaker 2>local jobber for the Buffalo Bill Show in the early

630
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:36.839
<v Speaker 2>twentieth century in Iowa, Wisconsin. As it was explained to me,

631
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:39.440
<v Speaker 2>when they came to town, they needed extra horses and cowboys.

632
00:33:39.599 --> 00:33:41.559
<v Speaker 2>Cowboys in the sense of being able to ride saddle

633
00:33:41.559 --> 00:33:43.759
<v Speaker 2>and bareback. So depending on the need of the performance

634
00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:45.960
<v Speaker 2>e g. Headcount you were either a soldier or a

635
00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:49.880
<v Speaker 2>native sometimes both in the same day. That's get the

636
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:55.279
<v Speaker 2>jobbers booked. Yep, Craig writes on one of our episodes, Yes,

637
00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:58.599
<v Speaker 2>this is a most explosive TNT show, which, as we

638
00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:00.559
<v Speaker 2>discovered as part of the Colosseum collection, is really one

639
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:02.640
<v Speaker 2>of those great windows in a Vince McMahon's psyche in

640
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:06.400
<v Speaker 2>terms of word choice and subject matter choice and all

641
00:34:06.440 --> 00:34:09.119
<v Speaker 2>the things that TNT tells us about how Vince's mind works.

642
00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:12.119
<v Speaker 2>Craig says, Vince says the phrase at fifty one to

643
00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:15.800
<v Speaker 2>fifty six hopsack race instead of just you know, a

644
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:18.159
<v Speaker 2>sack race, and I'm not even sure how to feel

645
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:20.880
<v Speaker 2>about it. He goes full Vince and has to rename

646
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:22.840
<v Speaker 2>it to something no one's ever said.

647
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:25.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's like he was trying to say, like

648
00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:27.800
<v Speaker 3>a mix of Hopscotch and a sack race.

649
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:34.199
<v Speaker 2>Right, you know, it's true he's so obsessed with adding words.

650
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:37.039
<v Speaker 2>Why say something in three words that you could say

651
00:34:37.039 --> 00:34:39.480
<v Speaker 2>in twenty one words. That's Vince McMahon's strategy, that's Vince

652
00:34:39.559 --> 00:34:43.000
<v Speaker 2>McMahon's philosophy. And so we sit here with and then

653
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:50.119
<v Speaker 2>from there and nonetheless that, notwithstanding all the shit unbelievable, Kevin,

654
00:34:50.800 --> 00:34:53.639
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Grimwood, thank you very much for your pledge on Patreon.

655
00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:58.199
<v Speaker 2>Christopher fucking delineated it as part of that aforementioned WWF

656
00:34:58.199 --> 00:35:02.719
<v Speaker 2>explosive TNT show coverage. How about these aforementioned it's Love's

657
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 2>that word obligation therefore clearly states the lady in question.

658
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh and he writes with what a maneuver is my

659
00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:14.840
<v Speaker 2>free square? I have Vince Bingo for that mating game sketch.

660
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:17.239
<v Speaker 2>I do like the idea of Vince Bingo. I really

661
00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:17.880
<v Speaker 2>really do.

662
00:35:18.519 --> 00:35:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

663
00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying I like the idea. It's great to

664
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:25.199
<v Speaker 2>hear from from Fred. Remember up how the Purple Parrot?

665
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Of course, it's how can I forget? I mean now?

666
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:29.840
<v Speaker 2>And then you know a Solar System member that you're like,

667
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.519
<v Speaker 2>I wonder how he's doing. You know, we used to

668
00:35:32.559 --> 00:35:34.079
<v Speaker 2>hear from him a lot. We don't hear from him

669
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:36.880
<v Speaker 2>as much, and that's fine, but you know, you do

670
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:40.119
<v Speaker 2>wonder did they stop listening to the show, did they

671
00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:43.840
<v Speaker 2>stop caring about wrestling? Did they fall in love? Did

672
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:47.079
<v Speaker 2>they find another twist in this long road of life

673
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:49.719
<v Speaker 2>that takes them off the lapsed path. But it was

674
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:52.039
<v Speaker 2>great to hear from him, and and I know, since

675
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:54.559
<v Speaker 2>you've shared the ring with him, it might be appropriate

676
00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:55.760
<v Speaker 2>for you to share what he wants to share.

677
00:35:55.840 --> 00:36:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, in the words of two thousand's butt Rock Band

678
00:36:02.880 --> 00:36:08.920
<v Speaker 3>and w favorite Stained, it's been a while, it's been

679
00:36:08.960 --> 00:36:12.559
<v Speaker 3>a huh oh yeah, yeah, all right, all right before

680
00:36:12.639 --> 00:36:15.559
<v Speaker 3>Fred shares thought well, I appreciate him thinking and talking

681
00:36:15.599 --> 00:36:20.480
<v Speaker 3>in third person. Before Fred SHARE's thoughts, one friendly reminder

682
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:23.719
<v Speaker 3>that a little birdie is lurking. The purple is always

683
00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:26.880
<v Speaker 3>watching from up in the trees. Anytime you're ready to

684
00:36:26.920 --> 00:36:31.039
<v Speaker 3>do it again. Yeah, I get that win back, brother.

<v Speaker 2>Mm hmmm.

686
00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:35.199
<v Speaker 3>As I type this, I'm riding in an RV up

687
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:37.480
<v Speaker 3>the West Coast with the woman you met when she

688
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:39.679

694
00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:04.039
<v Speaker 3>the actual song, but even at my wedding, I can

695
00:37:04.119 --> 00:37:05.519
<v Speaker 3>never unhear those words.

696
00:37:05.559 --> 00:37:12.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes understood, Thank you, Omar for that one. That's yeah,

697
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:14.639
<v Speaker 2>that's from Omar. That's right here, it's Omar. Omar would

698
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:17.480
<v Speaker 2>do that all the time. Long time listeners might remember,

699
00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:22.280
<v Speaker 2>by the way, they might remember the purple parrot from

700
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:24.119
<v Speaker 2>the episode we did about what it's like to be

701
00:37:24.159 --> 00:37:30.639
<v Speaker 2>on Wheel of Fortune. The whole interview for him, Oh yeah,

<v Speaker 2>So it's pretty cool. I enjoy seeing his posts about

724
00:38:38.079 --> 00:38:38.719
<v Speaker 2>stuff like that.

725
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:46.199
<v Speaker 3>We're currently driving through the mountains while at her request,

726
00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:50.199
<v Speaker 3>listening to your series on the Benoa tragedy. Oh my god,

727
00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:55.719
<v Speaker 3>really bless her heart. Morbid and disturbing stories are being

728
00:38:55.760 --> 00:38:58.400
<v Speaker 3>shared of drugs and cover up, some corruption and a

729
00:38:58.400 --> 00:39:01.239
<v Speaker 3>madman who took innocent lives with him as he was

730
00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:04.920
<v Speaker 3>eaten alive by the business, all the while being adored

731
00:39:04.920 --> 00:39:09.320
<v Speaker 3>by us for it. Shame and pain. You know what,

732
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:13.119
<v Speaker 3>we have never been more at peace. Seven years in

733
00:39:13.159 --> 00:39:15.239
<v Speaker 3>the Solar system, five years as a couple in TLF

734
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:18.239
<v Speaker 3>is still the soundtrack to our lives. Anyone asks me

735
00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:21.239
<v Speaker 3>for a podcast recommendation for a specific occasion of circumstance,

736
00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:24.559
<v Speaker 3>I cut them off before they even qualify what occasion

737
00:39:24.559 --> 00:39:27.639
<v Speaker 3>they're asking about. The answer is that fucking cast one

738
00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:31.159
<v Speaker 3>hundred percent of the time. Just like I made a

739
00:39:31.239 --> 00:39:33.079
<v Speaker 3>vow to my new bride to love and cherish and

740
00:39:33.079 --> 00:39:35.679
<v Speaker 3>supporter for all eternity. I vowed to my co chairs

741
00:39:36.079 --> 00:39:39.440
<v Speaker 3>to keep my ass open, yes and ready, Yes for

742
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:42.280
<v Speaker 3>the casts, periodical poundings, forever and ever.

743
00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Amen, much love and thank you for seeing a man.

744
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:49.079
<v Speaker 2>That's the kind update we're looking for. Salute from the road, pal,

745
00:39:49.719 --> 00:39:51.119
<v Speaker 2>We'll see a out in the way. I was just

746
00:39:51.159 --> 00:39:54.360
<v Speaker 2>thinking about the Renaissance Rumble Show the other day. Yeah,

747
00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:57.559
<v Speaker 2>and uh, man.

748
00:39:56.719 --> 00:39:59.480
<v Speaker 3>No, you know, i'd be lying if I said I

749
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:02.320
<v Speaker 3>didn't every now and again go back and just take

750
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:04.960
<v Speaker 3>a look at it. I think it's it was fun.

751
00:40:05.039 --> 00:40:08.599
<v Speaker 3>It was so much fun. It's I had such a

752
00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:11.840
<v Speaker 3>good time with that one. Absolutely, I'd get you know,

753
00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:14.920
<v Speaker 3>I suppose there could be one more. There could be

754
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:17.719
<v Speaker 3>one more left. I don't know if yeah, right, one

755
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:19.400
<v Speaker 3>and more Mad for Boss Adkinson.

756
00:40:21.119 --> 00:40:24.639
<v Speaker 2>Makes all the sense in the world. Now, what a

757
00:40:24.679 --> 00:40:26.960
<v Speaker 2>finish to that little mini documentary where everyone's like, you

758
00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:30.000
<v Speaker 2>should actually do this? Man. Oh, I know there was

759
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:32.639
<v Speaker 2>a moment, there was like there's a moment. There was

760
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:39.039
<v Speaker 2>a moment I was there was a consideration. But no,

761
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:42.239
<v Speaker 2>I would say we've learned too much. We know too

762
00:40:42.320 --> 00:40:46.840
<v Speaker 2>much about that world. Jeff writes. When TLF begin their

763
00:40:46.840 --> 00:40:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Colisseum collection journey. I don't think I could foresee Don

764
00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Morocco channeling Sesame Street's Bert while splurging pathetically onto his

765
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:57.400
<v Speaker 2>stomach after getting oiled down by mister Fuji. That being said,

766
00:40:57.440 --> 00:41:00.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm not that surprised either. Well, the Calle collection takes

767
00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:02.840
<v Speaker 2>this in strange places. Spell That's all I can say,

768
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:06.159
<v Speaker 2>Mike Palm, thank you very much for your pledge. Welcome

769
00:41:06.199 --> 00:41:10.039
<v Speaker 2>in Carlo Stallion rights. The primary act of Carnival is

770
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:14.119
<v Speaker 2>the mock crowning and subsequent decrowning of a Carnival king.

771
00:41:14.440 --> 00:41:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Did you know this? It is a according to an academic,

772
00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:23.639
<v Speaker 2>I suppose dualistic, ambivalent ritual that typifies the inside out

773
00:41:23.639 --> 00:41:27.159
<v Speaker 2>world of Carnival end quote, the joyful relativity of all

774
00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:33.280
<v Speaker 2>structure and order. I do really like wrestling described as

775
00:41:33.280 --> 00:41:36.480
<v Speaker 2>the joyful relativity of all structure and order. Yes, that

776
00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:40.280
<v Speaker 2>sounds like postmodernism, right, sure does? This is from Botkin.

777
00:41:40.760 --> 00:41:44.519
<v Speaker 2>I think a Russian philosopher. He knew a lot about Carnes, Okay,

778
00:41:44.639 --> 00:41:48.239
<v Speaker 2>Carlo writes. Botkan identifies four principal categories of the Carnival

779
00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:51.880
<v Speaker 2>sense of the world, familiar and free interaction between people.

780
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Carnival often brought the unlikeliest of people together those ordinarily

781
00:41:55.800 --> 00:42:00.320
<v Speaker 2>separated by impenetrable socio hierarchical barriers. The suspension of dits

782
00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:03.960
<v Speaker 2>between people encouraged free interaction and free individual expression. Yeah,

783
00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:06.440
<v Speaker 2>I can't help think of how wrestling shows in the

784
00:42:06.559 --> 00:42:10.599
<v Speaker 2>territorial days were always talked about in Memphis and Chicago

785
00:42:10.639 --> 00:42:12.960
<v Speaker 2>and some other cities as some of the first integrated

786
00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:15.960
<v Speaker 2>live sports events, where black fans and white fans would

787
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:18.840
<v Speaker 2>sit next to each other and sort of share in

788
00:42:18.840 --> 00:42:21.400
<v Speaker 2>an entertainment experience in a way they really didn't share

789
00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:25.320
<v Speaker 2>anything else in society at the time. Eccentricity. With the

790
00:42:25.360 --> 00:42:32.119
<v Speaker 2>dissolution of hierarchical relationships, ordinarily unacceptable behavior becomes acceptable behavior.

791
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Gesture and discourse that are normally considered eccentric and inappropriate

792
00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:38.840
<v Speaker 2>are encouraged, permitting the latent sides of human nature to

793
00:42:38.920 --> 00:42:45.599
<v Speaker 2>reveal and express themselves. Carnivalistic messy alliances. The familiar and

794
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:49.440
<v Speaker 2>free format of carnival allows all dualistic separations of the

795
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:53.760
<v Speaker 2>hierarchical worldview to reunite in living relationship with one another.

796
00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:56.880
<v Speaker 2>Heaven and hell, the sacred in the profane, the high

797
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:59.760
<v Speaker 2>and the low, the great and the small, the clever,

798
00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:03.000
<v Speaker 2>and the stupid. But enough about.

799
00:43:02.920 --> 00:43:05.719
<v Speaker 4>Sunday, August third, at noon, the lapsed fan takes on

800
00:43:05.800 --> 00:43:09.360
<v Speaker 4>Times Square tickets at Comedy Village dot com. There goes

801
00:43:09.360 --> 00:43:12.760
<v Speaker 4>the neighborhood, you fucking bitch, and finally pro dot com,

802
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:13.719
<v Speaker 4>there goes the.

803
00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:16.159
<v Speaker 3>Neighbor shut up, you fucking.

804
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:20.079
<v Speaker 2>Bitch, and finally profanation. In the carnival, the strict rules

805
00:43:20.079 --> 00:43:23.159
<v Speaker 2>of piety and respect for official notions of the sacred

806
00:43:23.199 --> 00:43:27.280
<v Speaker 2>are stripped of their power. Blasphemy, obscenity, debasing, bringing down

807
00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:30.679
<v Speaker 2>to earth celebration rather than condemnation of the earthly and

808
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:34.239
<v Speaker 2>body based that friends, Carlos Stelling.

809
00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:38.880
<v Speaker 3>I heard is what we do? I heard that body

810
00:43:38.920 --> 00:43:41.119
<v Speaker 3>based Big fan.

811
00:43:41.760 --> 00:43:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Craig writes, you do the lapse pilgrimage to Ocean City, Maryland,

812
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:48.159
<v Speaker 2>like where they shot the Fuji vice as we discovered. Yes,

813
00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:51.039
<v Speaker 2>and you have to go to Atlantic General in Salisbury,

814
00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:54.360
<v Speaker 2>the hospital that Goldberg ends up after shattering the window.

815
00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:58.119
<v Speaker 2>It's screwing up his arm. Go to Salisbury. Yes, that's

816
00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Nash's line. Go to Saul's. Hey you, keV, I'm

817
00:44:03.840 --> 00:44:06.360
<v Speaker 2>right on it, buddy, because everybody knows what you mean

818
00:44:06.400 --> 00:44:11.880
<v Speaker 2>about this random city in Maryland. It's also where they

819
00:44:11.880 --> 00:44:13.960
<v Speaker 2>took me, he says, when I was hit by a

820
00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:17.400
<v Speaker 2>car in Ocean City when I was eighteen. Oh Jesus, Well,

821
00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Craig offers to cover desserts and drinks. So if we're

822
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:22.440
<v Speaker 2>ever going to Ocean City, Maryland, we're work covered. Nowhere

823
00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:24.400
<v Speaker 2>to go, Jimmy Airy, thank you very much for the

824
00:44:24.440 --> 00:44:28.159
<v Speaker 2>increase in pledge, My friend, welcome in to our good graces.

825
00:44:28.360 --> 00:44:32.679
<v Speaker 2>We'll winthrop a seahawk. Remember Fuji and Don Morocco and

826
00:44:32.719 --> 00:44:36.719
<v Speaker 2>Fuji Wece are looking for the Seahawk drug dealer. Remember that, Yes,

827
00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:38.800
<v Speaker 2>I do, He says, a seahawk heavily involved with coke

828
00:44:38.840 --> 00:44:40.559
<v Speaker 2>in the eighties. I can't have been the only one

829
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:46.360
<v Speaker 2>expecting a Brian Bosworth cameo. Uh, Steve Jack was correct.

830
00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:48.039
<v Speaker 2>It was a von Eric angle that Vince said, we're

831
00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:52.280
<v Speaker 2>turn off sponsors. Yeah, we were reading reading something that

832
00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:56.679
<v Speaker 2>he put in his magazine about how unlike other organizations

833
00:44:56.719 --> 00:45:00.119
<v Speaker 2>that are doing things that are too hyper violent. It

834
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:01.639
<v Speaker 2>was one of those like you know how we're taking

835
00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:05.840
<v Speaker 2>over the National Television Producer's Convention and we're advertiser friendly

836
00:45:06.079 --> 00:45:08.000
<v Speaker 2>and I'm trying to remember what it was that Vince

837
00:45:08.119 --> 00:45:10.079
<v Speaker 2>was kind of throwing shade at, and it was the

838
00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:12.320
<v Speaker 2>Van Eric angle that Vince said would turn off sponsors

839
00:45:12.519 --> 00:45:14.760
<v Speaker 2>when Chris Adams Kevin Van Eric had the chair shut

840
00:45:14.840 --> 00:45:18.639
<v Speaker 2>thing and he busted Kevin like ear to ear, by

841
00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:20.519
<v Speaker 2>which point David had died and carried one then to

842
00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:22.159
<v Speaker 2>be a belt. So the courtship with Fritz and World

843
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:25.679
<v Speaker 2>Class was on hiatus between Vince and Fritz. Of course,

844
00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:28.719
<v Speaker 2>Stephen also hopes that further expiration of TNT leads to

845
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:31.559
<v Speaker 2>the coach heers discovering the lost episode of TNT that

846
00:45:31.639 --> 00:45:34.559
<v Speaker 2>never made it onto ww network. The only valid reason

847
00:45:34.559 --> 00:45:36.079
<v Speaker 2>for which I could find was that it had doctor

848
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Jerry Graham on and Vince's visibly marking out to be

849
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:40.639
<v Speaker 2>on TV with one of his heroes. Yeah, and one

850
00:45:40.679 --> 00:45:42.960
<v Speaker 2>of the more notorious human beings to ever be in

851
00:45:43.000 --> 00:45:46.719
<v Speaker 2>the wrestling business as well. There's also a very campy,

852
00:45:48.280 --> 00:45:52.719
<v Speaker 2>questionable swimsuit competition featuring Baltimore models that Vince McMahon MC's

853
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:54.159
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the thing. As far as I

854
00:45:54.199 --> 00:45:57.320
<v Speaker 2>can tell, if you haven't noticed, I've seen it. He doesn't,

855
00:45:57.599 --> 00:46:01.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, do anything inappropriate or untoward that's very obvious,

856
00:46:01.280 --> 00:46:05.239
<v Speaker 2>but would love to know when they were poorting over

857
00:46:05.280 --> 00:46:08.239
<v Speaker 2>the whole TNT archive to the network and or peacock

858
00:46:08.280 --> 00:46:09.760
<v Speaker 2>that they decided to just leave that one off to

859
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:16.920
<v Speaker 2>the side. We noticed. Yep, we noticed Jordan's CAPECI. Thank

860
00:46:16.920 --> 00:46:18.519
<v Speaker 2>you very much for your pledge, my friend, and thanks

861
00:46:18.559 --> 00:46:22.760
<v Speaker 2>for being part of what we do on Patreon. Andrew

862
00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:25.119
<v Speaker 2>just wants to drop a quick note. This is Drew

863
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:28.519
<v Speaker 2>just saying, among other things, Boss, thank you. If you

864
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:32.119
<v Speaker 2>could share it with the Solar system please. Hey, guys,

865
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:34.039
<v Speaker 2>just wanted to drop a quick note to say thank you.

866
00:46:34.079 --> 00:46:38.119
<v Speaker 2>I've been a listener for a long time Patreon since

867
00:46:38.760 --> 00:46:42.239
<v Speaker 2>eighteen and a freeloader before that. I never really understood

868
00:46:42.519 --> 00:46:46.159
<v Speaker 2>would even dismiss how people could write in and say

869
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:52.760
<v Speaker 2>how much the cast saved them during hard time. I'd

870
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:56.599
<v Speaker 2>laughed to myself and think it's just a college podcast.

871
00:46:57.000 --> 00:46:59.159
<v Speaker 2>At the end of the day, it's just some high

872
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:03.800
<v Speaker 2>quality con tent. Long story short, my week old son,

873
00:47:03.840 --> 00:47:06.599
<v Speaker 2>who decided to make his entrance a month early, had

874
00:47:06.599 --> 00:47:09.159
<v Speaker 2>some issues regulating his temperature. After a few days at home,

875
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:11.920
<v Speaker 2>we ended up in the er where he had an

876
00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:15.960
<v Speaker 2>apnea episode and stopped breathing. Due to a rapid drop

877
00:47:15.960 --> 00:47:21.840
<v Speaker 2>in temperature hypothermia. They had a rush into to the NICU.

878
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:24.559
<v Speaker 2>My wife and I were completely in the dark. No

879
00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:26.679
<v Speaker 2>one could tell us that everything was going to be okay.

880
00:47:26.880 --> 00:47:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh fuck.

881
00:47:28.039 --> 00:47:31.639
<v Speaker 3>For a while, we truly thought we might lose him. Thankfully,

882
00:47:31.920 --> 00:47:35.400
<v Speaker 3>we were eventually reassured that he would survive, though he'd

883
00:47:35.440 --> 00:47:38.440
<v Speaker 3>need to be monitored closely so for the next week.

884
00:47:38.480 --> 00:47:42.840
<v Speaker 3>The NICU became our home. That first night, with emotions

885
00:47:42.880 --> 00:47:45.880
<v Speaker 3>running high and knowing he was sedated, I tried to

886
00:47:45.880 --> 00:47:48.199
<v Speaker 3>get some rest. I put on the first episode of

887
00:47:48.239 --> 00:47:52.639
<v Speaker 3>the Saboo Tributes and lost myself in the cast I've

888
00:47:52.639 --> 00:47:55.239
<v Speaker 3>known and loved for years, And in that moment, I realized,

889
00:47:56.760 --> 00:48:00.360
<v Speaker 3>you guys are more than just a college podcast, more

890
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.599
<v Speaker 3>than content I enjoy that gets pumped straight into my ass.

891
00:48:06.320 --> 00:48:08.639
<v Speaker 3>I can't quite put it into words, but I finally

892
00:48:08.679 --> 00:48:11.599
<v Speaker 3>understood how people turn to you during the hard times. Daddy,

893
00:48:12.960 --> 00:48:14.679
<v Speaker 3>that time spending me and I see you taught me

894
00:48:14.719 --> 00:48:18.159
<v Speaker 3>a lesson in humility, gave me a new perspective on life,

895
00:48:18.199 --> 00:48:21.159
<v Speaker 3>and reminded me to never take anything for granted. My son,

896
00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.239
<v Speaker 3>now a month and a half old, is doing well.

897
00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:26.119
<v Speaker 3>His follow up visits have been positive and it seems

898
00:48:26.199 --> 00:48:28.440
<v Speaker 3>like this was just a small bump in the road.

899
00:48:29.079 --> 00:48:31.199
<v Speaker 3>Thank you for everything you do. Keep up the amazing work.

900
00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:33.599
<v Speaker 3>I'll always be listening and always look forward to the

901
00:48:33.599 --> 00:48:42.079
<v Speaker 3>next episode. Cheers, Drew. That's listen. I've said it before,

902
00:48:42.480 --> 00:48:45.719
<v Speaker 3>I will say it every time. It's not something that

903
00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:52.320
<v Speaker 3>I anticipated, it's not something that I sought out, But

904
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:55.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm grateful that this that it has happened that way. Yes,

905
00:48:56.000 --> 00:48:59.159
<v Speaker 3>I'm grateful that we can be there. It's one of

906
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:03.800
<v Speaker 3>the great side effects of doing this show. Yes, and

907
00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:07.400
<v Speaker 3>I am. I'm grateful for that. I'm grateful that we

908
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:11.760
<v Speaker 3>could help you in that. I can't even imagine how

909
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:18.280
<v Speaker 3>scary that was for you. And that's just Jesus.

910
00:49:19.519 --> 00:49:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we've been ten years worth of these letters by now.

911
00:49:22.920 --> 00:49:27.199
<v Speaker 2>There's something going on. There's something real, there's something additive,

912
00:49:27.800 --> 00:49:31.719
<v Speaker 2>there's something hopeful happening when we pick up the stick.

913
00:49:32.239 --> 00:49:34.559
<v Speaker 2>Because wrestling fans they have a hard time finding hope.

914
00:49:34.719 --> 00:49:38.360
<v Speaker 2>They do, yes, why they watch wrestling so religiously. They're

915
00:49:38.360 --> 00:49:40.920
<v Speaker 2>trying to find something to cling on to that they

916
00:49:40.920 --> 00:49:44.760
<v Speaker 2>can look forward to. And you know, like you said,

917
00:49:44.840 --> 00:49:47.639
<v Speaker 2>never by design, but always by effect your co chairs

918
00:49:47.679 --> 00:49:52.920
<v Speaker 2>there in that void. Brandon from Jersey, longtime homie and supporter.

919
00:49:52.960 --> 00:49:55.599
<v Speaker 2>I want to thank you very much for your support

920
00:49:55.599 --> 00:50:00.480
<v Speaker 2>in all these years, most recently via Patreon urgent Tavis,

921
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:02.960
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much for joining the Executive producer tier.

922
00:50:03.000 --> 00:50:05.679
<v Speaker 2>Same to you, Simon. Really appreciate it. Mike writes, you

923
00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:10.199
<v Speaker 2>have said China, Paul Orndorff, and Bill Mercer were near calls. Okay,

924
00:50:10.559 --> 00:50:12.679
<v Speaker 2>that is to say people who when we heard about them,

925
00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:15.679
<v Speaker 2>we thought about picking up the phone and making it

926
00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:18.559
<v Speaker 2>a call, but they just didn't feel in the moment

927
00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:20.679
<v Speaker 2>like they rose to the level. He says, if you

928
00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:22.360
<v Speaker 2>could go back and do a tribute on any one

929
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:24.119
<v Speaker 2>of those three, which of the three would you choose,

930
00:50:24.119 --> 00:50:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Boss China, Paul Orndorf or Bill Mercer.

931
00:50:34.239 --> 00:50:38.360
<v Speaker 3>I'd probably say Mercer. Yeah, he had a fascinating life.

932
00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:42.239
<v Speaker 3>He did, and I feel like he he was a

933
00:50:42.519 --> 00:50:48.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Orndorf, I don't know like his if if

934
00:50:48.800 --> 00:50:52.960
<v Speaker 3>he had I feel like if he had continued as

935
00:50:53.079 --> 00:50:59.760
<v Speaker 3>well as he had throughout the eighties after Hogan, I

936
00:51:00.039 --> 00:51:06.199
<v Speaker 3>feel like that would have been he might have he

937
00:51:06.280 --> 00:51:08.800
<v Speaker 3>might have been more deserving. But it's like he he

938
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:11.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of seemed like a flash in the pan. Yeah,

939
00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:15.400
<v Speaker 3>and then he was in WCW and you know, as

940
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:17.800
<v Speaker 3>much as I love pretty wonderful, I don't feel I

941
00:51:17.800 --> 00:51:20.119
<v Speaker 3>don't know if he really accomplished as much.

942
00:51:21.599 --> 00:51:26.039
<v Speaker 2>You know, But China, Mercer. The thing about China is

943
00:51:27.000 --> 00:51:29.440
<v Speaker 2>you can weigh and they have, God knows they have

944
00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:35.320
<v Speaker 2>overplay her impact in the business. But her story how

945
00:51:35.360 --> 00:51:37.880
<v Speaker 2>the business chewed her up and spit her out. Yeah, yeah,

946
00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:40.039
<v Speaker 2>how Triple H chewed her up and spit her out.

947
00:51:40.119 --> 00:51:42.159
<v Speaker 2>You know, I don't know if that's fair. Of course

948
00:51:42.199 --> 00:51:43.599
<v Speaker 2>it's not, but you know, you know what I mean,

949
00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:46.239
<v Speaker 2>how it appears from the sidelines the Triple and to

950
00:51:46.320 --> 00:51:48.960
<v Speaker 2>hear her tell it, Triple H chewed her up and

951
00:51:48.960 --> 00:51:51.039
<v Speaker 2>spit her out, And how that all led to the

952
00:51:51.119 --> 00:51:55.599
<v Speaker 2>Triple H becoming the fucking boss of the entire WWE, right,

953
00:51:55.880 --> 00:51:58.360
<v Speaker 2>And how she just found herself kind of despite a

954
00:51:58.400 --> 00:52:03.079
<v Speaker 2>very short tenure at the nexus of so many tectonic

955
00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:06.280
<v Speaker 2>plate shifts at WWF and the Attitude era and all

956
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:09.159
<v Speaker 2>of that, and then within the McMahon family unit itself.

957
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:12.320
<v Speaker 2>I think that's that's a fascinating thing. They've done some

958
00:52:12.360 --> 00:52:15.639
<v Speaker 2>great documentaries about her, so it's it's kind of trod ground.

959
00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:18.840
<v Speaker 2>It's not like we'd be doing like a stare at

960
00:52:18.960 --> 00:52:21.679
<v Speaker 2>like a a trademark dive where we're going to uncover

961
00:52:21.760 --> 00:52:24.199
<v Speaker 2>all kinds of stuff or talk about stuff in waste

962
00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:26.639
<v Speaker 2>people hadn't thought about before, because she's been analyzed in

963
00:52:26.719 --> 00:52:29.840
<v Speaker 2>that fashion six ways from Sunday. She was in her

964
00:52:29.920 --> 00:52:32.639
<v Speaker 2>last years being followed around constantly by documentary crew who

965
00:52:32.679 --> 00:52:36.320
<v Speaker 2>eventually put a documentary out. But I don't know. There's

966
00:52:36.360 --> 00:52:39.559
<v Speaker 2>a lot there in what happened, what China did, and

967
00:52:39.559 --> 00:52:44.320
<v Speaker 2>what happened to her. Yeah, but yeah, I mean, I

968
00:52:44.320 --> 00:52:46.280
<v Speaker 2>guess if it doesn't warrant a call, it doesn't want

969
00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:50.440
<v Speaker 2>a tribute. That's just a basic rule. Yeah, which of

970
00:52:50.519 --> 00:52:54.599
<v Speaker 2>those three do you think you were closest to making

971
00:52:54.639 --> 00:52:58.280
<v Speaker 2>the call for? If they're all even, you can say

972
00:52:58.320 --> 00:52:58.639
<v Speaker 2>that too.

973
00:53:03.440 --> 00:53:06.039
<v Speaker 3>It's funny. Yeah, I don't know.

974
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:10.119
<v Speaker 2>I think China. I don't probably China, because China dying

975
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:12.599
<v Speaker 2>was like not just oh my god, the piece of

976
00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:15.039
<v Speaker 2>the childhood is gone, like the usual reason for the call.

977
00:53:15.119 --> 00:53:19.880
<v Speaker 2>It was also she's not gonna recover, She's not gonna

978
00:53:19.880 --> 00:53:22.719
<v Speaker 2>bounce back from the tailspin she went into after w

979
00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:24.079
<v Speaker 2>W E was done with her.

980
00:53:24.760 --> 00:53:29.239
<v Speaker 3>Right, right, She's just gonna be known for fucking nextpok

981
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:29.719
<v Speaker 3>on camera.

982
00:53:31.440 --> 00:53:33.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean that would have to be part of the tribute, right,

983
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:34.639
<v Speaker 2>we'd have to watch that along.

984
00:53:37.679 --> 00:53:38.519
<v Speaker 3>Do a deep dive.

985
00:53:39.400 --> 00:53:43.440
<v Speaker 2>That'll be our only fans the CoA chairs watch.

986
00:53:43.239 --> 00:53:48.519
<v Speaker 3>Porn fucking watch wrestler porn, watch sucking the sunny, the

987
00:53:48.599 --> 00:53:52.440
<v Speaker 3>sunny porns watched the wrestling vixens.

988
00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Find that old porn that what's her name? Chastity was

989
00:53:55.599 --> 00:53:59.760
<v Speaker 2>in from e c W. M Oh my god, that's

990
00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:02.840
<v Speaker 2>what or Major Guns was in one. Oh my god,

991
00:54:03.000 --> 00:54:05.320
<v Speaker 2>there's a nitro girl. I think No, no, that was

992
00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:08.519
<v Speaker 2>a UFC ring card girl. Oh my god, so funny.

993
00:54:08.840 --> 00:54:10.639
<v Speaker 2>Under the cinemat Once upon a Time in the West.

994
00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:14.360
<v Speaker 2>The comment from Craig Lasagna Westerns almost caused a two

995
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:24.039
<v Speaker 2>car pile up. Shout out to Justin Jones for the

996
00:54:24.280 --> 00:54:28.079
<v Speaker 2>Patreon pledge we appreciated. Scott writes on JP's comment on

997
00:54:28.079 --> 00:54:30.840
<v Speaker 2>the amount of clothes people wearing the desert. As a

998
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:34.039
<v Speaker 2>Vegas resident, the smart ones who work outside keep fully covered.

999
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:36.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah it's hot, but you got to protect your skin

1000
00:54:36.079 --> 00:54:36.960
<v Speaker 2>at all costs out here.

1001
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:40.000
<v Speaker 3>I get, Okay, I'm trying to remember what we were.

1002
00:54:40.719 --> 00:54:42.000
<v Speaker 3>I guess it must have been once more time in

1003
00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:47.719
<v Speaker 3>the West or whenever you see. It's not it's not

1004
00:54:47.840 --> 00:54:49.920
<v Speaker 3>about that. I get that. I totally get that you

1005
00:54:50.039 --> 00:54:53.719
<v Speaker 3>need to. It's it's the amount of clothing. And it's

1006
00:54:53.920 --> 00:54:57.639
<v Speaker 3>the heavy clothing that you see them wear. That's the

1007
00:54:57.679 --> 00:55:01.440
<v Speaker 3>part I don't understand, right, Why the heavy, dark clothing

1008
00:55:02.599 --> 00:55:04.719
<v Speaker 3>that just makes me want to die. The thought of.

1009
00:55:04.679 --> 00:55:07.480
<v Speaker 2>It, I know it puts me in a compromise position,

1010
00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:11.039
<v Speaker 2>just thinking about yeah, yeah, he says, it's a minimum wet,

1011
00:55:11.119 --> 00:55:14.000
<v Speaker 2>light white and white long sleeve and usually athletic tights.

1012
00:55:14.079 --> 00:55:18.119
<v Speaker 3>That that, yes, you see, that's fine. It's the it's

1013
00:55:18.199 --> 00:55:21.239
<v Speaker 3>the stuff that you see when they're wearing bulky clothing.

1014
00:55:22.159 --> 00:55:26.559
<v Speaker 3>And I'm like, why can you why think about robes?

1015
00:55:26.639 --> 00:55:30.079
<v Speaker 2>Think about being one of those soldiers carrying one hundred

1016
00:55:30.079 --> 00:55:34.760
<v Speaker 2>and fifty pounds of gear on your back, fully covered boots.

1017
00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:38.280
<v Speaker 2>It is one hundred and thirty degrees in Iraq, No, no,

1018
00:55:39.679 --> 00:55:42.480
<v Speaker 2>and your life is on the line, and you're dehydrated

1019
00:55:44.159 --> 00:55:46.800
<v Speaker 2>and you're miserable, and you're miserable and you're gonna die.

1020
00:55:53.480 --> 00:55:56.880
<v Speaker 2>What what do you want? It's what you don't want anything.

1021
00:55:56.960 --> 00:56:00.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm just making a point. Actually, I don't want something.

<v Speaker 2>Sun bitch, writes to us regarding Fonda winning and acting

1037
00:56:52.119 --> 00:56:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Oscar after getting an honorary one. We wondered if that

1038
00:56:54.840 --> 00:56:59.000
<v Speaker 2>ever happened before wait wits again. Henry Fonda winning and

1039
00:56:59.039 --> 00:57:01.280
<v Speaker 2>acting at Oscar after getting an honorary one.

1040
00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:03.400
<v Speaker 3>Yes, oh yes, yes, yes yes.

1041
00:57:03.440 --> 00:57:05.960
<v Speaker 2>In terms of useless Oscar trivia, he writes, Paul Newman

1042
00:57:06.000 --> 00:57:08.800
<v Speaker 2>and learns Olivier both won a competitive acting oscar after

1043
00:57:08.840 --> 00:57:12.360
<v Speaker 2>winning an honorary one a year or two prior. I believe, wow,

1044
00:57:12.679 --> 00:57:15.920
<v Speaker 2>he says. He believes. Also composer Ennio Morricone won his

1045
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:19.159
<v Speaker 2>Hateful eight oscar after getting an honorary one. Is yes,

1046
00:57:19.639 --> 00:57:21.679
<v Speaker 2>that is true. That is true, And he says. Harold

1047
00:57:21.719 --> 00:57:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Russell is the rare trivia answer for winning both a

1048
00:57:23.880 --> 00:57:27.000
<v Speaker 2>competitive oscar and an honorary one for his supporting performance

1049
00:57:27.159 --> 00:57:29.440
<v Speaker 2>in Best Years of Our Lives. He was an amateur

1050
00:57:29.440 --> 00:57:32.360
<v Speaker 2>actor and a disabled handless World War Two vett who

1051
00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:34.360
<v Speaker 2>was assumed to have little chance of winning. Harold is

1052
00:57:34.360 --> 00:57:38.159
<v Speaker 2>also why the Academy institutor rules selling off oscar as well.

1053
00:57:38.320 --> 00:57:43.679
<v Speaker 2>That's a fascinating thing. He he gives you. I mean,

1054
00:57:43.679 --> 00:57:48.599
<v Speaker 2>that's that's didn't didn't Billy.

1055
00:57:48.320 --> 00:57:49.599
<v Speaker 3>Graham sell off his ring?

1056
00:57:50.360 --> 00:57:52.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? It is a Hall of famer sold off a

1057
00:57:52.480 --> 00:57:53.719
<v Speaker 2>lot of things, and I think that was among them.

1058
00:57:53.760 --> 00:57:55.800
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, that's tremendous.

1059
00:57:56.000 --> 00:58:02.079
<v Speaker 2>All the time has come, will Winthrop bt sports co chairs.

1060
00:58:02.719 --> 00:58:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Unlike WWE, real sports seasons do end, therefore giving me

1061
00:58:07.440 --> 00:58:09.320
<v Speaker 2>more free time to finally send an email that's been

1062
00:58:09.360 --> 00:58:12.159
<v Speaker 2>in the pipeline for many months. With WW signing a

1063
00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:14.559
<v Speaker 2>deal with Netflix, we have officially reached the end of

1064

1082
00:59:32.760 --> 00:59:36.480
<v Speaker 2>of a way mo. With WW signing a deal with Netflix,

1083
00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:39.400
<v Speaker 2>we've officially reached the end. To commemorate this milestone, I

1084
00:59:39.400 --> 00:59:41.880
<v Speaker 2>feel it's only right to follow in Mark mccol's footsteps

1085
00:59:41.920 --> 00:59:44.079
<v Speaker 2>and to leave my boots and fake mm A gloves

1086
00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:46.719
<v Speaker 2>in the middle of the ring and for one last time,

1087
00:59:48.159 --> 00:59:51.800
<v Speaker 2>provide a compilation of comments left on BT sports facebook page.

1088
00:59:52.480 --> 00:59:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Below is the photo BT uploaded, thanking WWE for the

1089
00:59:55.639 --> 00:59:57.920
<v Speaker 2>memory as well. It's pretty quiet, pretty crazy. Let me

1090
00:59:58.079 --> 01:00:00.039
<v Speaker 2>let me share that with you. This is moment. This

1091
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:02.519
<v Speaker 2>has been a mailbag staple for years and years. And

1092
01:00:02.599 --> 01:00:06.119
<v Speaker 2>get it another thing that the Netflix era just ruins.

1093
01:00:06.360 --> 01:00:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Netflix sucks. Wow, look at that. Thanks for the memories.

1094
01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:17.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's funny too, like you know, you're seeing

1095
01:00:17.880 --> 01:00:19.920
<v Speaker 3>makes of the memories. But it's like everybody who is

1096
01:00:19.960 --> 01:00:24.360
<v Speaker 3>currently on roster except for is John Cena there? No

1097
01:00:24.400 --> 01:00:28.679
<v Speaker 3>he's not there. No he's not w W Champion John

1098
01:00:28.719 --> 01:00:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Cena is not there. The Rock's there though, the Rocks there.

1099
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:35.559
<v Speaker 3>Triple Ah has got a little better position, but I

1100
01:00:35.599 --> 01:00:38.400
<v Speaker 3>don't know, they're like they're like right close there. Sure

1101
01:00:38.480 --> 01:00:41.000
<v Speaker 3>Rock has no business if you're not gonna Rock has

1102
01:00:41.039 --> 01:00:43.920
<v Speaker 3>no business. Triple H has no business being on this

1103
01:00:43.960 --> 01:00:49.559
<v Speaker 3>fucking poster, none of them. Do. Look at that, brother,

1104
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:51.440
<v Speaker 3>TNT Sports, dude, it's.

1105
01:00:51.400 --> 01:00:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Really weird to see the TNT logo right underneath WWE. Yep,

1106
01:00:56.840 --> 01:01:01.280
<v Speaker 2>intellectual property aka the wrestlers. So what do you say

1107
01:01:01.280 --> 01:01:03.639
<v Speaker 2>when I want to go one by one in Uh?

1108
01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:04.559
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

1109
01:01:04.760 --> 01:01:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Through what people commented on the finals Goodbye WWE article

1110
01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:13.599
<v Speaker 2>on at Sports absolutely do we'll start. Let me get

1111
01:01:13.599 --> 01:01:22.079
<v Speaker 2>the let me pull it up here this waitte is

1112
01:01:22.199 --> 01:01:26.840
<v Speaker 2>uh the oh yeah here it is? I get is

1113
01:01:26.840 --> 01:01:30.360
<v Speaker 2>how the general public marked their appreciation will winthro brights.

1114
01:01:31.559 --> 01:01:38.440
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't much of an era. Lao. Pathetic. The whole

1115
01:01:38.519 --> 01:01:44.599
<v Speaker 2>thing is pathetic. Who actually follows this? That's that's a

1116
01:01:44.639 --> 01:01:53.559
<v Speaker 2>great one. TNT have realized it's not sport. Okay, never

1117
01:01:53.599 --> 01:02:02.599
<v Speaker 2>watched anyways, end of the script. It's good silly eank

1118
01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:05.679
<v Speaker 2>wrestling will not be missed at all. Yeah, it's supposed

1119
01:02:05.679 --> 01:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>to be a sports channel, not theater. Good ribbits. Oh

1120
01:02:15.079 --> 01:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>I love how angry as Oh.

1121
01:02:23.119 --> 01:02:23.920
<v Speaker 3>None of it's real.

1122
01:02:24.039 --> 01:02:28.840
<v Speaker 2>For Fox sake, WWE has been unwatchable for over a decade.

1123
01:02:29.199 --> 01:02:31.480
<v Speaker 2>A huge success for T and T getting rid of

1124
01:02:31.480 --> 01:02:37.119
<v Speaker 2>that dead weight. I'm surprised people even pay a subscription

1125
01:02:37.280 --> 01:02:41.199
<v Speaker 2>to watch wrestling. It's fun when you're like six years old,

1126
01:02:41.880 --> 01:02:51.599
<v Speaker 2>cringe when you're full grown in dullas Sunday off. That's

1127
01:02:51.599 --> 01:02:56.079
<v Speaker 2>so true. WWE is not sport, it's entertainment. The clue

1128
01:02:56.239 --> 01:03:02.119
<v Speaker 2>is in the title. Get that as a T shirt factory.

1129
01:03:02.159 --> 01:03:03.599
<v Speaker 3>Man, Oh my god.

1130
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:06.320
<v Speaker 2>We just set up an API, just pumped these comments

1131
01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:07.719
<v Speaker 2>right on a T shirt. Good.

1132
01:03:09.719 --> 01:03:14.960
<v Speaker 3>That's so brilliant. WWF Yes, I said it died in

1133
01:03:14.960 --> 01:03:19.760
<v Speaker 3>the nineties. Now it's just a circus act WCWNW.

1134
01:03:20.360 --> 01:03:22.480
<v Speaker 2>That's that's more like it. There's a little lot of

1135
01:03:22.559 --> 01:03:26.639
<v Speaker 2>t peeking through, right, Uh huh. Great news. Hopefully TNT

1136
01:03:26.840 --> 01:03:32.199
<v Speaker 2>can put some actual spot in its place. All the

1137
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:36.639
<v Speaker 2>so called grown men crying over a bunch men fake

1138
01:03:36.760 --> 01:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>fighting in tights isn't on the TV anymore.

1139
01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:41.320
<v Speaker 3>Grow Up.

1140
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:49.599
<v Speaker 2>That's a good one. That's a really good one. All

1141
01:03:49.679 --> 01:03:52.719
<v Speaker 2>the so called grown men crying over a bunch of

1142
01:03:52.800 --> 01:03:55.679
<v Speaker 2>men fake fighting and tights isn't on the TV anymore.

1143
01:03:55.840 --> 01:03:59.639
<v Speaker 2>Grow Up, grow Up.

1144
01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:33.519
<v Speaker 1>A wrestling podcast, the wrestling podcast that knows the boys

1145
01:04:33.599 --> 01:05:09.599
<v Speaker 1>need their candy. It's the Lapsed Fan. He's lapsed fan

1146
01:05:09.719 --> 01:05:13.400
<v Speaker 1>wrestling podcast with Jack and Cap.

1147
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:15.199
<v Speaker 3>So that's it.

1148
01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:20.519
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for being boring, that's the comment. Replace it with

1149
01:05:20.639 --> 01:05:25.360
<v Speaker 2>ease senders. Replace everything with these senders. Who on earth

1150
01:05:25.400 --> 01:05:30.400
<v Speaker 2>would pay money for a pantomime spot? All rehearsed, staged,

1151
01:05:30.440 --> 01:05:39.360
<v Speaker 2>and fixed. Biggest swindle in town. I think window oh man,

1152
01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:42.559
<v Speaker 2>all rehearsed, staged, and fixed.

1153
01:05:42.960 --> 01:05:46.679
<v Speaker 3>Let's fucking go foal, Let's fucking go.

1154
01:05:49.239 --> 01:05:52.719
<v Speaker 2>Just shadow of its formself anyway, the golden days, when

1155
01:05:52.719 --> 01:05:55.760
<v Speaker 2>the eighties and nineties, when the real character is not

1156
01:05:55.920 --> 01:05:58.639
<v Speaker 2>like the cardboard cutouts. Now, can you imagine trying to

1157
01:05:58.679 --> 01:06:01.480
<v Speaker 2>make that qualification while other people are in the chat

1158
01:06:01.519 --> 01:06:04.639
<v Speaker 2>saying this is the This is like impossibly cringe to

1159
01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:08.320
<v Speaker 2>even consider watching. Oh, actually it was a lot better before.

1160
01:06:08.559 --> 01:06:13.199
<v Speaker 2>Shut the fuck up, man, good good stick. Wait a minute,

1161
01:06:13.280 --> 01:06:18.320
<v Speaker 2>good stick, More football on. Here's a good one. There's

1162
01:06:18.360 --> 01:06:21.280
<v Speaker 2>another one. We should put on a T shirt.

1163
01:06:21.480 --> 01:06:22.880
<v Speaker 3>It was never a spoil.

1164
01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:24.320
<v Speaker 2>That one cuts.

1165
01:06:24.920 --> 01:06:25.360
<v Speaker 3>That's good.

1166
01:06:25.440 --> 01:06:31.440
<v Speaker 2>WWB is boring, that's it, says someone wrote that. Someone

1167
01:06:31.519 --> 01:06:33.239
<v Speaker 2>went on the article and wrote that I don't.

1168

<v Speaker 3>the eighties and nineties the WWWE.

1176
01:07:06.480 --> 01:07:09.599

01:07:38.679 --> 01:07:43.400
<v Speaker 2>I stopped watching WWE wrestling over sixteen years ago. Knows

1184
01:07:43.400 --> 01:07:46.599
<v Speaker 2>the exact day too. Huh. Yeah, put more UFC things

1185
01:07:46.599 --> 01:07:52.920
<v Speaker 2>on and replacement actual combat instead of bad actors. Yeah,

1186
01:07:54.079 --> 01:08:00.800
<v Speaker 2>the worst acting in pathetic Grown men League, worst acting

1187
01:08:00.840 --> 01:08:06.159
<v Speaker 2>and pathetic grown menly cringe. It is so gringe, it

1188
01:08:06.199 --> 01:08:06.639
<v Speaker 2>really is.

1189
01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:07.239
<v Speaker 3>It is.

1190
01:08:07.480 --> 01:08:13.239
<v Speaker 2>It is no loss. WWE hasn't been good in decades, bomy.

1191
01:08:13.760 --> 01:08:17.000
<v Speaker 2>I thought they died or something, just not on TNT anymore.

1192
01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:19.760
<v Speaker 2>It turns out someone else wrote fuck off. That's all

1193
01:08:19.800 --> 01:08:25.359
<v Speaker 2>they wrote. Oh, I used to watches as a kid.

1194
01:08:25.880 --> 01:08:28.439
<v Speaker 2>How can you take that shit seriously as a fully

1195
01:08:28.520 --> 01:08:31.920
<v Speaker 2>grown adult. People out here calling it a sport like

1196
01:08:32.000 --> 01:08:35.720
<v Speaker 2>it's not made up athletic acting. Come on, guys, Logan

1197
01:08:35.840 --> 01:08:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Poles running around like he owns the gaff. You got

1198
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:42.600
<v Speaker 2>people fighting YouTube as dressed as prime bottles. Jeez, what

1199
01:08:42.640 --> 01:08:46.840
<v Speaker 2>a load of top let's go, let's go, let's go.

1200
01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:52.359
<v Speaker 2>It goes down like fucking Nando's. Let's taste it. How

1201
01:08:53.079 --> 01:08:58.239
<v Speaker 2>oh shit, people dressed as prime bottles. A load of

1202
01:08:58.560 --> 01:09:02.159
<v Speaker 2>tough is the best thing ever. I gotta find that

1203
01:09:02.279 --> 01:09:08.520
<v Speaker 2>slang slang load of top, give me more, seriously, load

1204
01:09:08.560 --> 01:09:10.600
<v Speaker 2>of tough British slang phrase used to describe a group

1205
01:09:10.640 --> 01:09:12.520
<v Speaker 2>of people who are perceived as being from the upper

1206
01:09:12.520 --> 01:09:15.439
<v Speaker 2>class are wealthy, often with a negative connotation of snobbery.

1207
01:09:15.479 --> 01:09:21.439
<v Speaker 2>Oh interesting, Okay, okay, so it's upper class, okay, full

1208
01:09:21.479 --> 01:09:24.680
<v Speaker 2>of juice monkeys and Latex ain't missed it since the nineties.

1209
01:09:27.680 --> 01:09:33.319
<v Speaker 2>Juice monkeys in Latex. He said, how does an unknown

1210
01:09:33.359 --> 01:09:36.199
<v Speaker 2>bleach blonde woman get a marquee spot on this poster?

1211
01:09:36.399 --> 01:09:42.600

01:09:42.640 --> 01:09:51.359
<v Speaker 2>two and are you reading ahead? Is that what you're doing?

1213
01:09:50.479 --> 01:10:01.279
<v Speaker 2>I haven't done. Just okay, you do it? You read this?

1214

<v Speaker 2>Replace and replace w W E T N T. Spots

1215
01:10:07.680 --> 01:10:10.199
<v Speaker 2>are going to be showing live Tidle Wings.

1216
01:10:16.319 --> 01:10:16.640
<v Speaker 4>Life.

1217
01:10:21.920 --> 01:10:32.319
<v Speaker 2>It's not taped, not at all. We're live from Wembley Winner.

1218
01:10:32.359 --> 01:10:35.840
<v Speaker 2>We're a live Timney Wings competition is underway.

1219
01:10:36.760 --> 01:10:42.319
<v Speaker 3>Yes here we are once again live Tilly Wings Wembley Stadium,

1220
01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:51.640
<v Speaker 3>the sport to end all sports. We are at the

1221
01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:54.760
<v Speaker 3>TWE Tiddley Wings Entertainment.

1222
01:10:57.079 --> 01:11:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Drop did you say Tindley Winks Entertainment t W Tidley

1223
01:11:10.960 --> 01:11:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Wings Entertainment. That's what they replaced Timm W with. There's

1224
01:11:24.520 --> 01:11:27.920
<v Speaker 2>some guy man. He's in Leads or he's in Wigan.

1225
01:11:27.960 --> 01:11:30.439
<v Speaker 2>I don't know where he is man, but he's in

1226
01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:34.479
<v Speaker 2>Brighton or he's in the hall. He sat down and

1227
01:11:34.520 --> 01:11:38.279
<v Speaker 2>he typed that, and here we are all these weeks later.

1228
01:11:38.720 --> 01:11:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, com losing our ship because that's what

1229
01:11:45.039 --> 01:11:49.199
<v Speaker 2>you get for reading your head. By the way, Oh

1230
01:11:49.319 --> 01:11:54.960
<v Speaker 2>my god. It's good stuff, though, Who watches this prescriptive

1231
01:11:55.119 --> 01:12:00.600
<v Speaker 2>rubbish must be so bored pre scripted as opposed to

1232
01:12:01.359 --> 01:12:07.239
<v Speaker 2>post You must be postscripted. You must be so, you

1233
01:12:07.319 --> 01:12:09.600
<v Speaker 2>must be so bored that you're watching this shit. It's

1234
01:12:09.640 --> 01:12:14.159
<v Speaker 2>a good hit. That's such a deep cut, that's tremendous. Yeah,

1235
01:12:14.199 --> 01:12:22.359
<v Speaker 2>I don't watch it anymore. It's shite now absolute bum liquors.

1236
01:12:23.760 --> 01:12:27.119
<v Speaker 2>Good now you have money to pay for proper sports.

1237
01:12:27.319 --> 01:12:29.720
<v Speaker 2>WW is the worst it's been for a long time.

1238
01:12:30.079 --> 01:12:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Surely no loss for TNT sports. Harmless harmys there's a

1239
01:12:37.880 --> 01:12:42.159
<v Speaker 2>fucking T shirt. Hardly a sport anywhere anyway. Oh look,

1240
01:12:42.239 --> 01:12:44.079
<v Speaker 2>the circus is leaving town.

1241
01:12:49.159 --> 01:12:52.319
<v Speaker 3>And all those brands are so bad now. Fatality is

1242
01:12:52.359 --> 01:12:55.920
<v Speaker 3>so bad it's not even enjoyable. Wrestling died in two

1243
01:12:55.920 --> 01:12:56.600
<v Speaker 3>thousand and two.

1244
01:12:56.960 --> 01:13:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Really, oh here, it is not really sport? Is it

1245
01:13:01.960 --> 01:13:03.560
<v Speaker 2>should be on a children's channel.

1246
01:13:09.439 --> 01:13:12.880
<v Speaker 3>It's like on after Sesame Tree.

1247
01:13:13.319 --> 01:13:18.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, should be on a children's channel. Prioritize

1248
01:13:18.680 --> 01:13:22.960
<v Speaker 2>in wrestling over football coverage was the downfall of BT sports. Wow,

1249
01:13:23.399 --> 01:13:25.800
<v Speaker 2>WWE still exists, fair play.

1250
01:13:27.399 --> 01:13:29.800
<v Speaker 3>It must be real if Netflix is picking it up.

1251
01:13:29.960 --> 01:13:35.920
<v Speaker 2>So William concludes, not an especially fawn farewell from the public.

1252
01:13:36.039 --> 01:13:40.359
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully they'll be oh my god, Hopefully they'll be more

1253
01:13:40.359 --> 01:13:43.039
<v Speaker 2>appreciative when ww coomes groveling back to TV after they've

1254
01:13:43.079 --> 01:13:45.399
<v Speaker 2>booted off Netflix, once they've swept up the rights for

1255
01:13:45.479 --> 01:13:48.680
<v Speaker 2>real sports and no longer have any desire for coordinated combat.

1256
01:13:49.159 --> 01:13:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I should also note that I peeked back in for

1257
01:13:51.640 --> 01:13:53.800
<v Speaker 2>that first Netflix raw that you did a live call

1258
01:13:53.840 --> 01:13:56.600
<v Speaker 2>for perhaps the worst wrestling show of all time and

1259
01:13:56.640 --> 01:13:59.039
<v Speaker 2>probably the last wrestling show I'll ever watch in full,

1260
01:13:59.239 --> 01:14:03.399
<v Speaker 2>pure adulterated shite. The fact I canceled my Netflix subscription

1261
01:14:03.439 --> 01:14:07.600
<v Speaker 2>two weeks later. Was not a coincidence other malebatic musings.

1262
01:14:07.720 --> 01:14:09.880
<v Speaker 2>I rely on Jack going on old man rants to

1263
01:14:09.880 --> 01:14:12.479
<v Speaker 2>give me cathartic release. And when he mentioned the jackass

1264
01:14:12.520 --> 01:14:14.479
<v Speaker 2>Pat McAfee being all over the place when he watches

1265
01:14:14.640 --> 01:14:16.800
<v Speaker 2>ESPN a few months ago, I was hoping he'd rant

1266
01:14:16.840 --> 01:14:19.560
<v Speaker 2>on something that is a major annoyance for me. But alas,

1267
01:14:19.840 --> 01:14:22.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to have to prompt him. When, why and

1268
01:14:22.079 --> 01:14:25.279
<v Speaker 2>how the fuck did we as a society decide that

1269
01:14:25.399 --> 01:14:28.239
<v Speaker 2>every sports analyst had to pair their suits with the

1270
01:14:28.239 --> 01:14:31.920
<v Speaker 2>whitest crispus sneakers available. Yep, yes, this is so true.

1271
01:14:32.560 --> 01:14:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Also when did it?

1272
01:14:34.359 --> 01:14:34.600
<v Speaker 2>When?

1273
01:14:34.800 --> 01:14:35.039
<v Speaker 4>Why?

1274
01:14:37.520 --> 01:14:41.119
<v Speaker 2>Look, he writes, just good, be a fucking adult and

1275
01:14:41.199 --> 01:14:42.279
<v Speaker 2>put some proper shoes.

1276
01:14:42.920 --> 01:14:44.960
<v Speaker 3>That's basically what I was going to say. I was

1277
01:14:45.000 --> 01:14:47.199
<v Speaker 3>going to say, why why are we? Why are we

1278
01:14:47.199 --> 01:14:52.439
<v Speaker 3>wearing sneakers? It's a great question. I I listen, and

1279
01:14:52.760 --> 01:14:54.920
<v Speaker 3>this is coming from somebody who ended up having to

1280
01:14:54.960 --> 01:14:57.039
<v Speaker 3>buy sneaks. Did I tell you? Did I tell you

1281
01:14:57.039 --> 01:14:59.439
<v Speaker 3>this story about the wedding that we went to in

1282
01:14:59.520 --> 01:15:04.239
<v Speaker 3>the city, So we go, we'd go to black tie

1283
01:15:04.279 --> 01:15:11.000
<v Speaker 3>wedding in New York and after the ceremony there this

1284
01:15:11.119 --> 01:15:14.279
<v Speaker 3>was the fucking worst. After the ceremony, there was a

1285
01:15:14.439 --> 01:15:20.279
<v Speaker 3>three hour break between the ceremony and the reception, starting

1286
01:15:20.399 --> 01:15:23.600
<v Speaker 3>the cocktail hour. It's like you got a bunch of

1287
01:15:23.600 --> 01:15:28.399
<v Speaker 3>people dressed up in gowns and tuxedos wandering around the

1288
01:15:28.479 --> 01:15:33.880
<v Speaker 3>Upper east Side looking like complete goofs. Okay, And so

1289
01:15:34.920 --> 01:15:37.680
<v Speaker 3>I ended up. I had I had some I had

1290
01:15:37.840 --> 01:15:40.520
<v Speaker 3>actually i'd worn my wedding shoes for the first time

1291
01:15:40.560 --> 01:15:44.000
<v Speaker 3>I'd worn them since my wedding, not realizing that the

1292
01:15:44.039 --> 01:15:50.119
<v Speaker 3>glue to my souls was dead. And so we leave

1293
01:15:50.159 --> 01:15:51.560
<v Speaker 3>the ceremony and all of a sudden, I feel like

1294
01:15:51.640 --> 01:15:53.600
<v Speaker 3>something flapping on my foot, like what the fuck is this?

1295
01:15:54.479 --> 01:15:58.079
<v Speaker 3>And the soul just falls right off. Oh my god.

1296
01:15:59.399 --> 01:16:01.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh, okay, well that happened.

1297
01:16:01.399 --> 01:16:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

1298
01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:06.000
<v Speaker 3>I had brought sneakers, thank god. But and then and

1299
01:16:06.000 --> 01:16:11.119
<v Speaker 3>then as I'm walking, you keep walking, the second falls off.

1300
01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:14.600
<v Speaker 3>I know. I'm just like, so I'm walking around with

1301
01:16:14.800 --> 01:16:17.880
<v Speaker 3>no like just it's just a complete disaster. And so

1302
01:16:18.159 --> 01:16:20.800
<v Speaker 3>my wife says, all right, there's a foot locker. Let's

1303
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:23.560
<v Speaker 3>just go there and get you some shoes. So keep

1304
01:16:23.600 --> 01:16:30.720
<v Speaker 3>them again, tuxedo down, we walk into foot locker, and

1305
01:16:30.840 --> 01:16:34.359
<v Speaker 3>I ended up buying not by choice, but because they

1306
01:16:34.359 --> 01:16:37.000
<v Speaker 3>were the only ones that look kind of, you know, classy,

1307
01:16:37.199 --> 01:16:41.560
<v Speaker 3>but these black air Jordans, And so I got these

1308
01:16:41.640 --> 01:16:44.319
<v Speaker 3>air Jordans on my fucking but like again, we're buying

1309
01:16:44.359 --> 01:16:47.760
<v Speaker 3>them these you know what, one hundred and fifty dollars shoes,

1310
01:16:48.399 --> 01:16:51.319
<v Speaker 3>which I which I criticized my kid for wanting all

1311
01:16:51.319 --> 01:16:54.640
<v Speaker 3>the time, and yet here I am buying them out

1312
01:16:54.680 --> 01:16:58.840
<v Speaker 3>of necessity. And but I have to say, I'll tell

1313
01:16:58.880 --> 01:17:02.479
<v Speaker 3>you what the difference though, is this they were black,

1314
01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:06.920
<v Speaker 3>they weren't white. Wearing a suit and white sneakers is stupid.

1315
01:17:07.000 --> 01:17:12.640
<v Speaker 3>Sneakers available, wear black sneakers. At least wear black sneakers

1316
01:17:12.720 --> 01:17:15.960
<v Speaker 3>or some a darker color unless you're wearing a white suit.

1317
01:17:15.960 --> 01:17:17.680
<v Speaker 3>I suppose then that would work. But like, come on,

1318
01:17:17.760 --> 01:17:20.600
<v Speaker 3>be an adult and match your fucking clothes, all right.

1319
01:17:21.600 --> 01:17:26.039
<v Speaker 3>Can't let him down, can't let well down. So millennials

1320
01:17:26.079 --> 01:17:32.479
<v Speaker 3>decided that collecting sneakers said something about how in the

1321
01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:35.479
<v Speaker 3>know you were. I don't know how this happened, but

1322
01:17:35.600 --> 01:17:37.520
<v Speaker 3>that was what a lot of millennials decided to do.

1323
01:17:37.600 --> 01:17:40.640
<v Speaker 3>Once they got into the workforce and started to generate

1324
01:17:40.680 --> 01:17:48.079
<v Speaker 3>disposable income. Is they decided to start flexing their their

1325
01:17:48.119 --> 01:17:54.079
<v Speaker 3>knowledge of the culture by wearing sneakers to work. Listen, listen, listen.

1326
01:17:54.359 --> 01:17:55.960
<v Speaker 3>It's just an excuse. And I don't have to wear

1327
01:17:56.000 --> 01:17:59.720
<v Speaker 3>fucking to not get dressed. That's all anyone sees. That's

1328
01:17:59.720 --> 01:18:02.079
<v Speaker 3>what it is. That's all it is, unless you're I'm

1329
01:18:02.079 --> 01:18:04.920
<v Speaker 3>not like mind, I don't, I don't. I don't fault

1330
01:18:04.960 --> 01:18:07.600
<v Speaker 3>people for that, but what I think, but don't act

1331
01:18:07.640 --> 01:18:10.279
<v Speaker 3>like you're wearing fucking adult clothing.

1332
01:18:10.520 --> 01:18:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Millennials fell hard for this idea that we're going to

1333
01:18:13.960 --> 01:18:16.680
<v Speaker 2>take streetwear and we're going to charge four hundred dollars

1334
01:18:16.720 --> 01:18:19.840
<v Speaker 2>for it, and so you can wear what you wore

1335
01:18:19.880 --> 01:18:23.079
<v Speaker 2>in junior high school but feel luxury at the same time. Right,

1336
01:18:23.159 --> 01:18:25.159
<v Speaker 2>and a lot of the luxury brands were happy to

1337
01:18:25.239 --> 01:18:27.920
<v Speaker 2>capitalize on this. Pretty soon, Prada had sneakers that looked

1338
01:18:27.920 --> 01:18:29.920
<v Speaker 2>like they were Nikes. What are we doing here, like

1339
01:18:30.000 --> 01:18:32.600
<v Speaker 2>air Force ones, Well, I don't know what we're doing

1340
01:18:32.600 --> 01:18:36.359
<v Speaker 2>here is making money. Because these fucking tastes are so pathetic,

1341
01:18:36.800 --> 01:18:38.039
<v Speaker 2>we'll just cater to them in colors.

1342
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:41.039
<v Speaker 3>This is why, this is why it bothers me that

1343
01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:44.920
<v Speaker 3>that like that that that you know, there's this confusion

1344
01:18:45.239 --> 01:18:49.399
<v Speaker 3>over where our generation lies in terms of you know,

1345
01:18:50.000 --> 01:18:51.720
<v Speaker 3>and I don't like being included as a millennial.

1346
01:18:51.800 --> 01:18:52.279
<v Speaker 2>I know we are.

1347
01:18:52.319 --> 01:18:55.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't like that at all at pisses we're.

1348
01:18:55.000 --> 01:18:57.560
<v Speaker 2>The working stiffs now, millennials are the working stiffs.

1349
01:18:58.680 --> 01:19:00.640
<v Speaker 3>I just I just don't like being cluded. I don't

1350
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:03.039
<v Speaker 3>consider myself to be a millennial at all. I think

1351
01:19:03.079 --> 01:19:06.239
<v Speaker 3>I'm some I'm I'm I don't like it. I don't

1352
01:19:06.319 --> 01:19:10.279
<v Speaker 3>like it at all because I don't identify with them.

1353
01:19:10.319 --> 01:19:16.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah I identify X, right, but I'm not you know, right,

1354
01:19:16.880 --> 01:19:19.640
<v Speaker 2>I know we're in this weird like the these kind

1355
01:19:19.680 --> 01:19:23.600
<v Speaker 2>of early to mid eighties berths are these is this

1356
01:19:24.199 --> 01:19:28.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of weird neutral zone, Yeah, where like you kind

1357
01:19:28.600 --> 01:19:30.199
<v Speaker 2>of fit into a bunch of different ones.

1358
01:19:30.239 --> 01:19:32.319
<v Speaker 3>And just I'm like, no, fuck that, it's all.

1359
01:19:32.359 --> 01:19:34.720
<v Speaker 2>It's it's part of the same cycle of like, you know,

1360
01:19:34.800 --> 01:19:37.560
<v Speaker 2>we get into our thirties and forties and we try

1361
01:19:37.600 --> 01:19:39.640
<v Speaker 2>to collect all the things that we wanted as kids

1362
01:19:39.640 --> 01:19:41.399
<v Speaker 2>but we couldn't have, and the market's still there because

1363
01:19:41.399 --> 01:19:43.239
<v Speaker 2>it's not like the next generation of kids wants any

1364
01:19:43.239 --> 01:19:47.399
<v Speaker 2>of the shit. So our dumb ass adults. Wallets are

1365
01:19:47.439 --> 01:19:50.680
<v Speaker 2>opening for this stuff. And yeah, sure we'll sell you sneakers.

1366
01:19:50.680 --> 01:19:52.720
<v Speaker 2>If you're going to pay three hundred dollars for them

1367
01:19:52.720 --> 01:19:54.720
<v Speaker 2>so you feel good wearing them to work, that's fine.

1368
01:19:54.760 --> 01:19:57.319
<v Speaker 2>We'll do that. And pretty soon all dress shoe brands

1369
01:19:57.640 --> 01:19:59.760
<v Speaker 2>have got to have the gum shoe underneath, and they

1370
01:19:59.760 --> 01:20:02.960
<v Speaker 2>got to look like sneakers or like golf shoes almost.

1371
01:20:03.079 --> 01:20:03.239
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1372
01:20:04.199 --> 01:20:06.359
<v Speaker 2>That's another thing about dress wear. It's like, why does

1373
01:20:06.600 --> 01:20:10.720
<v Speaker 2>everyone suddenly start dressing like their fucking shooter McGavin. When

1374
01:20:10.720 --> 01:20:14.640
<v Speaker 2>did this happen? When is everyone walking around on their

1375
01:20:14.640 --> 01:20:18.279
<v Speaker 2>way to or from the golf course. That's not dress wear,

1376
01:20:18.319 --> 01:20:22.039
<v Speaker 2>that's golf wear, that's sportswear. It's fine whatever, But but

1377
01:20:22.119 --> 01:20:27.000
<v Speaker 2>he's right, there's like this guy like like, what's the

1378
01:20:27.000 --> 01:20:29.520
<v Speaker 2>word I'm looking for? Pat McAfee kind of exemplifies it

1379
01:20:29.560 --> 01:20:33.159
<v Speaker 2>a little bit, you know, like party animal jock. But

1380
01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:36.279
<v Speaker 2>he's dressing up. He's got the fit. He'll say fit

1381
01:20:36.520 --> 01:20:40.479
<v Speaker 2>like with a straight face, and he's just dressing down

1382
01:20:40.920 --> 01:20:41.439
<v Speaker 2>what used to be.

1383
01:20:41.560 --> 01:20:44.239
<v Speaker 3>It's like a suit. He's he's like wearing he's like

1384
01:20:44.279 --> 01:20:46.720
<v Speaker 3>wearing like a suit but with like a like a

1385
01:20:46.760 --> 01:20:49.079
<v Speaker 3>wife beater and that ship.

1386
01:20:49.159 --> 01:20:52.399
<v Speaker 2>And I can't stand that there's certain things that are timeless.

1387
01:20:53.199 --> 01:20:57.079
<v Speaker 2>You know, lock in folks before it's too late. Yeah,

1388
01:20:57.079 --> 01:20:58.840
<v Speaker 2>it's definitely, I mean definitely like.

1389
01:20:58.720 --> 01:21:02.119
<v Speaker 3>A confusing We're gonna assume we're gonna be wearing fucking

1390
01:21:02.119 --> 01:21:05.600
<v Speaker 3>bathing suits and uh uh you know, and and and

1391
01:21:06.720 --> 01:21:08.279
<v Speaker 3>uh tube tops everybody.

1392
01:21:08.600 --> 01:21:10.359
<v Speaker 2>Everybody have to dress all the time in a way

1393
01:21:10.399 --> 01:21:13.439
<v Speaker 2>that's designed to remind you that they burn calories like

1394
01:21:13.439 --> 01:21:16.239
<v Speaker 2>a motherfucker. Oh you know what I mean. Everybody's got

1395
01:21:16.279 --> 01:21:19.399
<v Speaker 2>to look performance. Everything's performance. Now these are these look

1396
01:21:19.479 --> 01:21:22.640
<v Speaker 2>like dress pants, but you can actually run a fucking tryathl.

1397
01:21:23.600 --> 01:21:24.680
<v Speaker 3>Why would you want to do that?

1398
01:21:25.199 --> 01:21:28.520
<v Speaker 2>It's that fucking high end active Oh God help us.

1399
01:21:28.560 --> 01:21:31.199
<v Speaker 2>All it is is COVID got us so fucking comfortable

1400
01:21:31.239 --> 01:21:33.039
<v Speaker 2>in our home clothes that we didn't want to leave them.

1401
01:21:33.279 --> 01:21:35.199
<v Speaker 2>And people were able to convince us that they could,

1402
01:21:35.680 --> 01:21:38.640
<v Speaker 2>They could three x the price of some of these things,

1403
01:21:39.520 --> 01:21:42.600
<v Speaker 2>and and and and create a sense of luxury and

1404
01:21:42.720 --> 01:21:46.000
<v Speaker 2>status around a fucking hooded sweatshirt, which is the ultimate

1405
01:21:46.079 --> 01:21:48.159
<v Speaker 2>bum thing to throw on, which is fine. I love

1406
01:21:48.239 --> 01:21:50.960
<v Speaker 2>a good hoodie. Who doesn't, But the idea they found

1407
01:21:50.960 --> 01:21:52.920
<v Speaker 2>a way to charge us six hundred dollars for hoodies

1408
01:21:53.000 --> 01:21:56.039
<v Speaker 2>is just the deep the deepest indictment of the species.

1409
01:21:56.079 --> 01:21:57.439
<v Speaker 2>I can't becauly.

1410
01:21:57.079 --> 01:21:59.640
<v Speaker 3>Because you know why, because our kids will will they

1411
01:21:59.720 --> 01:22:03.920
<v Speaker 3>they want to well, that's they want to spend. It

1412
01:22:03.960 --> 01:22:07.760
<v Speaker 3>is a big problem. And wearing fucking you know, getting

1413
01:22:08.760 --> 01:22:11.239
<v Speaker 3>getting my kids sweatshirts with all these fucking nineties bands

1414
01:22:11.239 --> 01:22:11.560
<v Speaker 3>on them.

1415
01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:13.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm dressed for work, but I want you to know

1416
01:22:13.680 --> 01:22:16.520
<v Speaker 2>I work out. I want you to know every fucking

01:22:16.600 --> 01:22:18.680

1421
01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:27.600
<v Speaker 3>on your own time.

1422
01:22:27.720 --> 01:22:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Everyone's got backpacks now because they have to put in

1423
01:22:29.960 --> 01:22:33.239
<v Speaker 2>fucking six hours at the gym after work. Like what

1424
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:36.399
<v Speaker 2>do we doing, folks? Can we just like separate these things,

1425
01:22:36.439 --> 01:22:40.560
<v Speaker 2>like compartmentalize them? Perhaps, but no, I gotta watch this

1426
01:22:40.600 --> 01:22:47.000
<v Speaker 2>guy literally do like thrust squats and in dress clothes. Well,

1429
01:22:52.159 --> 01:22:53.359
<v Speaker 2>can tread underneath?

1430
01:22:54.520 --> 01:22:55.119
<v Speaker 3>Yes he does?

1431
01:22:56.199 --> 01:23:00.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeh that's right, stand I read I read somewhere burn calleries,

1434
01:23:08.720 --> 01:23:10.720
<v Speaker 2>I come step to the mic and I'm screaming my

1435
01:23:10.760 --> 01:23:13.319
<v Speaker 2>fucking ass off, So I guess, I guess it works

1436
01:23:13.359 --> 01:23:17.039
<v Speaker 2>for everybody. Will also says feel like every email these

1437
01:23:17.079 --> 01:23:20.079
<v Speaker 2>days must ask about cinemat qualifiers, so I shall follow suit.

1438
01:23:20.279 --> 01:23:22.359
<v Speaker 2>This may have already been answered as I'm behind on cinemat,

1439
01:23:22.399 --> 01:23:24.159
<v Speaker 2>But do real actors who play a character on a

1440
01:23:24.199 --> 01:23:27.520
<v Speaker 2>wrestling show qualify, such as David Ketchner, who was the

1441
01:23:27.560 --> 01:23:29.760
<v Speaker 2>original right to censor for a show or two, or

1442
01:23:29.880 --> 01:23:31.800
<v Speaker 2>Leland Jones, who was one of the cops that tried

1443
01:23:31.800 --> 01:23:34.960
<v Speaker 2>to arrest Goldberg for stalking Liz. I mainly asked to

1444
01:23:35.000 --> 01:23:37.359
<v Speaker 2>make sure David Crumholtz, who start as the fake Drew

1445
01:23:37.399 --> 01:23:40.359
<v Speaker 2>McIntyre and the Thunderdome apparently makes the Santa Claus as

1446
01:23:40.359 --> 01:23:43.479
<v Speaker 2>cinemat eligible. Did he really don't know anything about this?

1447
01:23:44.119 --> 01:23:47.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that at all. Oh my god, that's

1448
01:23:47.680 --> 01:23:50.720
<v Speaker 2>really fesingring a thundered doome. Raw he likes a body

1449
01:23:50.720 --> 01:23:53.640
<v Speaker 2>double for Drew McIntyre. I guess that's really funny. I

1450
01:23:53.640 --> 01:23:58.399
<v Speaker 2>mean it all depends. I mean it's not that simple

1451
01:23:58.520 --> 01:24:04.479
<v Speaker 2>per se, but like I like them to be more involved,

1452
01:24:05.760 --> 01:24:09.159
<v Speaker 2>preferably and then just made a cameo. Then just having

1453
01:24:09.199 --> 01:24:14.239
<v Speaker 2>made a cameo like like like you know, I'd say,

1454
01:24:14.239 --> 01:24:17.079
<v Speaker 2>I'd say the best example, in my opinion, of somebody

1455
01:24:17.079 --> 01:24:19.199
<v Speaker 2>who didn't actually even get in the ring but was

1456
01:24:19.279 --> 01:24:23.520
<v Speaker 2>constant is Leslie Nielsen because of the ninety four Yeah,

1457
01:24:23.520 --> 01:24:27.359
<v Speaker 2>he actually took you on TV pro right, can they

1458
01:24:27.479 --> 01:24:31.720
<v Speaker 2>on TV for a month or more? You know with

1459
01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:34.920
<v Speaker 2>all these little vignettes and stuff. So he's like, really,

1460
01:24:35.239 --> 01:24:38.000
<v Speaker 2>that's a real connection. Yeah, I don't know. I'd have

1461
01:24:38.000 --> 01:24:40.359
<v Speaker 2>to take a look. It's a case by case thing. Also,

1462
01:24:40.359 --> 01:24:43.720
<v Speaker 2>it depends, it depends, I won't lie about this, depends

1463
01:24:43.760 --> 01:24:46.239
<v Speaker 2>on how desperate I'm willing to put a movie. Of course,

1464
01:24:46.800 --> 01:24:50.439
<v Speaker 2>you're old, you're just a human being. Yeah, but some

1465
01:24:50.520 --> 01:24:52.760
<v Speaker 2>ridiculous ones. Oh there's a wrestling scene on a TV

1466
01:24:52.960 --> 01:24:54.520
<v Speaker 2>in one scene, it's like, okay.

1467
01:24:54.279 --> 01:24:57.199
<v Speaker 3>Oh that totally that that listen that if they if

1468
01:24:57.199 --> 01:25:00.760
<v Speaker 3>they are if they, I will say this, if the

1469
01:25:00.960 --> 01:25:05.920
<v Speaker 3>if the director, because there's there there there, we've already

1470
01:25:05.960 --> 01:25:08.399
<v Speaker 3>done one of them that that that qualified, that was

1471
01:25:09.199 --> 01:25:12.520
<v Speaker 3>natural Born Killers. It's the only reason why I qualified

1472
01:25:12.600 --> 01:25:15.279
<v Speaker 3>was because it was you know, and that to me

1473
01:25:15.439 --> 01:25:18.439
<v Speaker 3>is the like. But if they if the if the

1474
01:25:18.520 --> 01:25:21.960
<v Speaker 3>director whoever it is, Oliver Stone or the guy who

1475
01:25:22.000 --> 01:25:26.920
<v Speaker 3>directed the movie The Fugitive sequel Us Marshalls decides to

1476
01:25:27.079 --> 01:25:32.159
<v Speaker 3>focus the camera on TV that is featuring wrestling and

1477
01:25:32.199 --> 01:25:35.800
<v Speaker 3>they don't cut it out of the film. That is

1478
01:25:35.840 --> 01:25:39.479
<v Speaker 3>a definite qualification because there is a they chose to

1479
01:25:39.600 --> 01:25:43.920
<v Speaker 3>keep that in. They chose to keep that in, and

1480
01:25:43.920 --> 01:25:47.920
<v Speaker 3>that is a major qualification of it. But to your point,

1481
01:25:47.960 --> 01:25:51.399
<v Speaker 3>like a cameo like all the raw gms, the guest

1482
01:25:51.399 --> 01:25:54.640
<v Speaker 3>hosts and stuff like that. Yeah, I just it. It

1483
01:25:54.680 --> 01:25:56.920
<v Speaker 3>feels a little too easy for me. But again it's

1484
01:25:56.960 --> 01:25:59.920
<v Speaker 3>a case by case basis. I mean, honestly, David crumholdts,

1485
01:26:00.880 --> 01:26:04.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, the Santa Claus, I would movies like that,

1486
01:26:04.199 --> 01:26:08.199
<v Speaker 3>Christmas movies especially. It's like, I'm more than willing to

1487
01:26:07.760 --> 01:26:13.079
<v Speaker 3>to to make exceptions for that because because I'm I

1488
01:26:13.279 --> 01:26:13.720
<v Speaker 3>I love that.

1489
01:26:13.720 --> 01:26:15.600
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe the one It's a wonderful life that

1490
01:26:15.640 --> 01:26:18.399
<v Speaker 2>you found. I thought that was never gonna happen. I know,

1491
01:26:19.199 --> 01:26:21.199
<v Speaker 2>we're just like, sorry, I can't, man, I can't do it.

1492
01:26:21.239 --> 01:26:24.640
<v Speaker 2>I was like okay, and then was and I went

1493
01:26:24.720 --> 01:26:26.760
<v Speaker 2>running to my bookcase to get my It's a Wonderful

1494
01:26:26.760 --> 01:26:27.279
<v Speaker 2>Life book.

1495
01:26:30.840 --> 01:26:32.359
<v Speaker 3>And the fact that he makes it on the screen

1496
01:26:32.399 --> 01:26:35.159
<v Speaker 3>too is what's my So you know, that's the best

1497
01:26:35.199 --> 01:26:38.199
<v Speaker 3>part is that he actually makes it. That's always you know,

1498
01:26:38.239 --> 01:26:41.239
<v Speaker 3>when you have the actors who the wrestlers who are

1499
01:26:41.239 --> 01:26:44.439
<v Speaker 3>in the movies, who are mostly background, they don't really

1500
01:26:44.479 --> 01:26:47.840
<v Speaker 3>have a real part, it's it's it's so much more

1501
01:26:47.880 --> 01:26:50.720
<v Speaker 3>satisfying when we can find them yeah and see them

1502
01:26:50.840 --> 01:26:54.359
<v Speaker 3>and like say, hey, there they are, we got them.

1503
01:26:54.399 --> 01:26:56.720
<v Speaker 2>I agree. That's that really brings it home. Like Joe

1504
01:26:56.720 --> 01:27:00.079
<v Speaker 2>Fowler an Independence Day, that you can see him is

1505
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:01.279
<v Speaker 2>so important.

1506
01:27:01.760 --> 01:27:05.359
<v Speaker 3>So hardly but he's there. Even Jola Creta like, we

1507
01:27:05.399 --> 01:27:08.560
<v Speaker 3>couldn't see him in uh in uh Friends of Any Coil,

1508
01:27:08.600 --> 01:27:10.720
<v Speaker 3>but we could see him in Jaws and that was huge.

1509
01:27:11.000 --> 01:27:14.279
<v Speaker 2>Now cute one of the Christmas movies and stuff, it's

1510
01:27:14.319 --> 01:27:17.039
<v Speaker 2>August too early for pumpkin spice.

1511
01:27:18.800 --> 01:27:23.800
<v Speaker 3>Never never ever listen, They've they've been sought at Walmart,

1512
01:27:24.159 --> 01:27:26.520
<v Speaker 3>they're already selling pumpkins spice. And I can't wait. August.

1513
01:27:26.680 --> 01:27:29.039
<v Speaker 3>End of August. They've got to someone. Someone texted me

1514
01:27:29.760 --> 01:27:33.119
<v Speaker 3>the date. They've got a p SL date. Listen the

1515
01:27:33.199 --> 01:27:35.720
<v Speaker 3>moment it comes out. I don't care when it is.

1516
01:27:35.880 --> 01:27:36.439
<v Speaker 3>It's fall.

1517
01:27:37.399 --> 01:27:40.960
<v Speaker 2>What if it's like a crafts I'll be drinking it

1518
01:27:41.479 --> 01:27:44.720
<v Speaker 2>and I'll be wearing a big ass fucking coat. All right,

1519
01:27:45.279 --> 01:27:48.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't care. I'm ready. I have found myself and

1520
01:27:48.720 --> 01:27:52.279
<v Speaker 2>these dogs end of July. End of July, I'm ready

1521
01:27:52.640 --> 01:27:54.600
<v Speaker 2>for for a fucking fall. I think that's what makes

1522
01:27:54.640 --> 01:27:57.439
<v Speaker 2>me ask about it is I've now, I've now downloaded

1523
01:27:57.439 --> 01:28:01.840
<v Speaker 2>that cadence myself, and I'm just I found myself in

1524
01:28:01.880 --> 01:28:03.479
<v Speaker 2>some of these dog days, a summer kind of day

1525
01:28:03.520 --> 01:28:06.800
<v Speaker 2>dreaming about the sound of leaves scraping on the cement

1526
01:28:06.880 --> 01:28:08.159
<v Speaker 2>as they're blown down the street.

1527
01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:12.119
<v Speaker 3>Yes, just the idea of opening the door and it's brisk,

1528
01:28:12.399 --> 01:28:17.000
<v Speaker 3>but it's not freezing, of course, not just brisk. Love

1529
01:28:17.039 --> 01:28:21.119
<v Speaker 3>that love that feeling. Okay, I cannot wait for that

1530
01:28:21.159 --> 01:28:24.720
<v Speaker 3>because he doesn't feel like that right now? Does it?

1531
01:28:25.760 --> 01:28:28.199
<v Speaker 3>The door? Oh my god, it it feels like fucking

1532
01:28:29.079 --> 01:28:34.159
<v Speaker 3>hell on earth. Just today was brutal. It was today,

1533
01:28:34.199 --> 01:28:38.840
<v Speaker 3>It was fucking brutal. I so today was one of

1534
01:28:38.880 --> 01:28:42.520
<v Speaker 3>those days. You could be in the car. You could

1535
01:28:42.520 --> 01:28:45.479
<v Speaker 3>be in the car for an hour and a half. Okay,

1536
01:28:45.720 --> 01:28:49.680
<v Speaker 3>your car is ice cold from air conditioning. You get out,

1537
01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:52.800
<v Speaker 3>you have to go drop something off of the fucking mailbox.

1538
01:28:53.119 --> 01:28:56.159
<v Speaker 3>All right, You're gone for thirty seconds tops. By the

1539
01:28:56.199 --> 01:28:59.439
<v Speaker 3>time you get back, you're hot. Your car is a

1540
01:28:59.479 --> 01:29:05.159
<v Speaker 3>fucking lava pit. It's like, it doesn't matter, it's that hot.

1541
01:29:05.479 --> 01:29:10.119
<v Speaker 3>It was awful today. I want to shoot.

1542
01:29:09.760 --> 01:29:12.479
<v Speaker 2>People love that ship. They love when it's so hot.

1543
01:29:13.560 --> 01:29:16.399
<v Speaker 3>Man, Oh, I can't. I know. My wife's my wife

1544
01:29:16.640 --> 01:29:19.439
<v Speaker 3>like she lives for the sun. She lives for the sun.

1545
01:29:20.279 --> 01:29:22.720
<v Speaker 3>And I'm like, I want the sun to go away.

1546
01:29:23.960 --> 01:29:27.119
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't that say so much? Why can't it be gray outside?

1547
01:29:27.520 --> 01:29:29.640
<v Speaker 2>I know, I mean, I don't want to be gray

1548
01:29:30.000 --> 01:29:32.560
<v Speaker 2>per se, but I don't want the sun to be like,

1549
01:29:33.039 --> 01:29:35.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, overwhelming my ship, right, I want to be

1550
01:29:35.439 --> 01:29:37.560
<v Speaker 2>I want to think about other things than the fact

1551
01:29:37.600 --> 01:29:41.199
<v Speaker 2>that it's one hundred degrees. But if it's a hundred degrees,

1552
01:29:41.199 --> 01:29:42.600
<v Speaker 2>I can't think about anything else.

1553
01:29:43.000 --> 01:29:45.119
<v Speaker 3>And not to mention, like I go to walk my

1554
01:29:45.159 --> 01:29:47.159
<v Speaker 3>fucking dog and this is that type of time of

1555
01:29:47.279 --> 01:29:50.680
<v Speaker 3>year and he's just so humid and they're just fucking

1556
01:29:50.880 --> 01:29:54.000
<v Speaker 3>gnats flying like the moment you walk outside.

1557
01:29:54.359 --> 01:29:59.239
<v Speaker 2>Then I was like, yeah, they do not call the

1558
01:29:59.279 --> 01:30:02.279
<v Speaker 2>fuck down. And it's like they're like all over my face,

1559
01:30:02.319 --> 01:30:04.680
<v Speaker 2>They're going in my fucking ears. It's just it's miss

1560
01:30:04.840 --> 01:30:08.840
<v Speaker 2>what's there to recommend it? I know, I know, just

1561
01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:15.000
<v Speaker 2>mosquitos nats die. It's great, just awful, says. If there's

1562
01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:16.680
<v Speaker 2>one thing I know about the co chairs, it's that

1563
01:30:16.720 --> 01:30:19.119
<v Speaker 2>you always appreciate being reminded of any pressing insight from

1564
01:30:19.159 --> 01:30:21.479
<v Speaker 2>previous shows. Therefore, here's a quote from Jack on the

1565
01:30:21.520 --> 01:30:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Summer Slam ninety seven episode when asked about the moment

1566
01:30:24.039 --> 01:30:25.840
<v Speaker 2>that cemented him as a lapsed fan at three hours

1567
01:30:25.920 --> 01:30:29.079
<v Speaker 2>nineteen minutes. Quote, when I realized that what wrestling was

1568
01:30:29.079 --> 01:30:32.159
<v Speaker 2>going to be post WCW folding was Triple H and

1569
01:30:32.279 --> 01:30:34.520
<v Speaker 2>his many ascents up the mountain, and everything was going

1570
01:30:34.520 --> 01:30:36.760
<v Speaker 2>to revolve around him when he had the power to

1571
01:30:36.800 --> 01:30:39.119
<v Speaker 2>make the hype about him. No matter what happens, who

1572
01:30:39.119 --> 01:30:41.359
<v Speaker 2>comes in, or what storyline they book, it's basically about

1573
01:30:41.359 --> 01:30:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Triple H. Either Triple H is winning or he's making somebody.

1574
01:30:44.840 --> 01:30:46.960
<v Speaker 2>And that's still too much Triple H for me, And

1575
01:30:47.039 --> 01:30:49.279
<v Speaker 2>even now in today's new world is Paul where he's

1576
01:30:49.279 --> 01:30:52.399
<v Speaker 2>baby facing himself as the NXT mastermind, as this great

1577
01:30:52.479 --> 01:30:55.800
<v Speaker 2>architect of WW accepting indie rific style matches, It's still

1578
01:30:55.800 --> 01:30:58.399
<v Speaker 2>about Triple H. And I don't care about Triple H

1579
01:30:58.479 --> 01:30:58.920
<v Speaker 2>that much.

1580
01:30:59.760 --> 01:31:02.319
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, that's so fucking.

1581
01:31:02.279 --> 01:31:05.720
<v Speaker 2>But in twenty seventeen, and given that Netflix show opened

1582
01:31:05.720 --> 01:31:07.880
<v Speaker 2>with him revealed in the ring like a big like

1583
01:31:07.920 --> 01:31:11.960
<v Speaker 2>a bad David Blaine trick, safe to say it's even

1584
01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:13.920
<v Speaker 2>worse than before. Say who went into the Hall of

1585
01:31:13.920 --> 01:31:17.279
<v Speaker 2>Fame this year? God, you recently mentioned The Pain off

1586
01:31:17.279 --> 01:31:19.279
<v Speaker 2>the Pacific as an underrated journey. I feel they need

1587
01:31:19.279 --> 01:31:21.359
<v Speaker 2>to admit that because of that journey, including a throwaway

1588
01:31:21.399 --> 01:31:27.399
<v Speaker 2>riff on Larry's Bbisco visiting Tji Fridays.

1589
01:31:28.680 --> 01:31:30.399
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't remember that, but.

1590
01:31:30.720 --> 01:31:32.880
<v Speaker 2>I know immediately think of three things whenever I see

1591
01:31:32.920 --> 01:31:35.800
<v Speaker 2>a sports announce their favorite restaurant, chosen order, and how

1592
01:31:35.840 --> 01:31:38.720
<v Speaker 2>they address their waitress. For example, anytime I watch Sunday

1593
01:31:38.760 --> 01:31:41.920
<v Speaker 2>Night football, immediately picture Mike Tirrico ordering a Ribie it

1594
01:31:41.960 --> 01:31:44.399
<v Speaker 2>out back after the game and making the effort to

1595
01:31:44.439 --> 01:31:49.920
<v Speaker 2>read the waitress's name tag such good stuff. I remember

1596
01:31:50.199 --> 01:31:52.640
<v Speaker 2>Damn Jack being enraged to Wrestlingia thirty three for having

1597
01:31:52.640 --> 01:31:55.119
<v Speaker 2>Pitbull concert five hours in and demanding to know who

1598
01:31:55.159 --> 01:31:57.680
<v Speaker 2>on earth could want that. Well, we found the one person.

1599
01:31:57.960 --> 01:32:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Darts prodigy Luke Littler was a kid in attendance for

1600
01:32:00.920 --> 01:32:04.720
<v Speaker 2>the show. Okay, there's the darks darts. There are no products.

1601
01:32:04.720 --> 01:32:07.119
<v Speaker 2>Well into darts. My friend will as well. At the darts,

1602
01:32:07.119 --> 01:32:07.720
<v Speaker 2>I can tell.

1603
01:32:08.000 --> 01:32:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Like like like it's like being a bowling prodigy. All right,

1604
01:32:13.079 --> 01:32:17.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, it's just not happening. No, I can't. I

1605
01:32:17.720 --> 01:32:18.520
<v Speaker 3>can't stand by that.

1606
01:32:18.960 --> 01:32:20.479
<v Speaker 2>What's going to be in the Olympics for the first

1607
01:32:20.479 --> 01:32:27.439
<v Speaker 2>time this year? They had break dancing last time, adding

1608
01:32:27.479 --> 01:32:31.359
<v Speaker 2>something else ludicrous. Darts prodigy Luke Littler was a kid

1609
01:32:31.399 --> 01:32:33.640
<v Speaker 2>in attendance for the show and now uses that song

1610
01:32:33.720 --> 01:32:37.399
<v Speaker 2>as his entrance music because of that, it is the wow,

1611
01:32:37.720 --> 01:32:40.800
<v Speaker 2>absolute bane of my life. Making that song a regular

1612
01:32:40.840 --> 01:32:43.880
<v Speaker 2>part of my life is Vince's biggest crime. And finally,

1613
01:32:44.479 --> 01:32:46.600
<v Speaker 2>over the past year, you've been asking people to say

1614
01:32:46.600 --> 01:32:48.840
<v Speaker 2>what TLF means to them in honor of TLFX. Here's

1615
01:32:48.840 --> 01:32:52.000
<v Speaker 2>my testimony. Because of TLF, I know what Jeff Town

1616
01:32:52.159 --> 01:32:56.479
<v Speaker 2>is I sent an email to you five years ago

1617
01:32:56.520 --> 01:32:58.840
<v Speaker 2>saying that I couldn't get the sound of Jeff's grandmother

1618
01:32:58.880 --> 01:33:00.840
<v Speaker 2>playing the piano out of my head after watching it,

1619
01:33:00.960 --> 01:33:02.000
<v Speaker 2>and you said I never would.

1620
01:33:02.079 --> 01:33:02.520
<v Speaker 3>You were right.

1621
01:33:03.199 --> 01:33:05.359
<v Speaker 2>Not a week goes by where that sound doesn't cross

1622
01:33:05.399 --> 01:33:07.239
<v Speaker 2>my mind. So fuck you for that.

1623
01:33:08.039 --> 01:33:14.279
<v Speaker 3>It's all it's it's listen that that, you know. It's

1624
01:33:14.399 --> 01:33:17.880
<v Speaker 3>like it's like when you go it's like when you

1625
01:33:17.960 --> 01:33:21.439
<v Speaker 3>go to another country that has you know. I think

1626
01:33:21.479 --> 01:33:24.359
<v Speaker 3>about the time I went to the Dominican Republican vacation.

1627
01:33:24.520 --> 01:33:27.960
<v Speaker 3>I found out a year later that the place we

1628
01:33:28.000 --> 01:33:30.680
<v Speaker 3>went to was a hub for malaria. Sure, and it's

1629
01:33:30.680 --> 01:33:33.039
<v Speaker 3>like you're just you're just you're you're just consumed by

1630
01:33:33.039 --> 01:33:34.479
<v Speaker 3>that now and you can't. I couldn't.

1631
01:33:34.479 --> 01:33:36.319
<v Speaker 2>I want to donate blood. I'm you know, I've never

1632
01:33:36.319 --> 01:33:37.800
<v Speaker 2>been able to successfully donate blood.

1633
01:33:38.600 --> 01:33:41.880
<v Speaker 3>Ever. The first time I did, they hit two veins

1634
01:33:42.840 --> 01:33:47.520
<v Speaker 3>and might they clotted like crazy, and so I couldn't.

1635
01:33:47.520 --> 01:33:49.319
<v Speaker 3>I gave. I could only give like a quarter of

1636
01:33:49.319 --> 01:33:52.399
<v Speaker 3>a pint, and it was like, no good. So that

1637
01:33:52.560 --> 01:33:55.640
<v Speaker 3>was the first time. The second time was this time

1638
01:33:55.720 --> 01:33:58.880
<v Speaker 3>after this vacation, and they said no because I wanted

1639
01:33:58.880 --> 01:34:00.199
<v Speaker 3>to I want I need to find out my blood

1640
01:34:00.199 --> 01:34:03.119
<v Speaker 3>type because my kid was being born. And so this

1641
01:34:03.159 --> 01:34:06.039
<v Speaker 3>is right before we started the show. And and they said,

1642
01:34:06.520 --> 01:34:08.920
<v Speaker 3>have you been to the Dominican Republican the last year?

1643
01:34:08.920 --> 01:34:12.119
<v Speaker 3>It is yeah, well then we can't take your blood

1644
01:34:12.439 --> 01:34:17.279
<v Speaker 3>because because you know, because that's a hub for malaria.

1645
01:34:17.520 --> 01:34:21.720
<v Speaker 3>It's like, fuck me. And even this, even this last

1646
01:34:21.760 --> 01:34:25.159
<v Speaker 3>the last time I did it, there was there was

1647
01:34:25.239 --> 01:34:30.159
<v Speaker 3>a there was a place at my wife's work and

1648
01:34:30.720 --> 01:34:34.039
<v Speaker 3>they were doing like a blood drive. And this is

1649
01:34:34.079 --> 01:34:36.800
<v Speaker 3>the third time, okay, third time I've tried to give blood.

1650
01:34:38.159 --> 01:34:44.199
<v Speaker 3>And their computers broke down and I couldn't wait, Like

1651
01:34:44.239 --> 01:34:45.680
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't wait, Like I was there for over an

1652
01:34:45.720 --> 01:34:47.319
<v Speaker 3>hour waiting for them to get their computers in the

1653
01:34:47.319 --> 01:34:50.199
<v Speaker 3>fix and get their systems back online.

1654
01:34:50.600 --> 01:34:51.760
<v Speaker 2>And I couldn't do it. I had to leave. I

1655
01:34:51.760 --> 01:34:54.199
<v Speaker 2>had to go to an appointment. It's like, I just

1656
01:34:54.319 --> 01:34:58.960
<v Speaker 2>am not meant to give blood, not meant to donate

1657
01:34:59.039 --> 01:35:03.000
<v Speaker 2>my fucking blood. You know. There are worse things.

1658
01:35:03.359 --> 01:35:07.640
<v Speaker 3>And that was for that was for a big reason.

1659
01:35:07.640 --> 01:35:10.359
<v Speaker 3>This was maybe a year or two ago. There was

1660
01:35:10.399 --> 01:35:12.600
<v Speaker 3>a reason too, because like like there was a lot

1661
01:35:12.600 --> 01:35:17.199
<v Speaker 3>of I forget what happened where they needed blood. Oh yeah,

1662
01:35:17.079 --> 01:35:19.920
<v Speaker 3>U earthquakers something maybe it was an earthquake or natural

1663
01:35:19.920 --> 01:35:22.960
<v Speaker 3>disaster and there was like just a need for blood.

1664
01:35:23.039 --> 01:35:26.359
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, all right, gladly, I want to,

1665
01:35:26.439 --> 01:35:27.560
<v Speaker 3>but it just never works out.

1666
01:35:27.560 --> 01:35:29.439
<v Speaker 2>It's amazing, it's wacky.

1667
01:35:29.439 --> 01:35:31.520
<v Speaker 3>It's wacky. It's like, I mean, three times. I know

1668
01:35:31.560 --> 01:35:34.119
<v Speaker 3>I haven't like tried a million times, but it's like

1669
01:35:34.520 --> 01:35:36.239
<v Speaker 3>I just never been able to. It's just to me,

1670
01:35:36.279 --> 01:35:39.159
<v Speaker 3>it's weird that in three times, I've never over over

1671
01:35:39.199 --> 01:35:43.920
<v Speaker 3>the span of twenty six years, three times, and I've

1672
01:35:43.960 --> 01:35:44.840
<v Speaker 3>never been able to give it.

1673
01:35:44.920 --> 01:35:46.720
<v Speaker 2>And you never tried to blade in one of those renaissance.

1674
01:35:46.760 --> 01:35:51.800
<v Speaker 2>I guess seriously, it's that malaria thing about Dominican reminds

1675
01:35:51.880 --> 01:35:55.199
<v Speaker 2>me of like, you know, like the Winner of twenty twenty.

1676
01:35:55.319 --> 01:35:56.880
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever been to China? Have you been to

1677
01:35:57.000 --> 01:36:02.680
<v Speaker 2>China lately? If yes, then you can't go on the cruise? Yea, yeah, guys,

1678
01:36:02.720 --> 01:36:05.720
<v Speaker 2>we're going to contain the coronavirus. Yeah, okay, ok right right,

1679
01:36:07.039 --> 01:36:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Steve the good old days, Steve back in the spot,

1680
01:36:10.079 --> 01:36:14.600
<v Speaker 2>he says, and also Buffalo Bill Shows qualifies the Westerns.

1681
01:36:14.600 --> 01:36:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Origin also qualifies all Westerns because it inspired one of

1682
01:36:17.680 --> 01:36:21.279
<v Speaker 2>Bischof's failed business ventures and the beer thing you tried.

1683
01:36:22.319 --> 01:36:24.239
<v Speaker 2>You can qualify any Western because of Eric.

1684
01:36:25.079 --> 01:36:26.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's true, he says.

1685
01:36:26.159 --> 01:36:27.960
<v Speaker 2>You could definitely make a case for calamity. Jane is

1686

1687

01:37:15.880 --> 01:37:19.079
<v Speaker 2>So it's no different than that. Zach writes, of course

1705
01:37:19.119 --> 01:37:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Warrior was shady and full of shit, but it always

1706
01:37:20.880 --> 01:37:23.199
<v Speaker 2>struck me as so bizarre how Vince Bruce at Hall

1707
01:37:23.359 --> 01:37:25.680
<v Speaker 2>acted like it was this mic drop proof that Warrior

1708
01:37:25.800 --> 01:37:28.319
<v Speaker 2>lied about the reason he missed shots because he hated

1709
01:37:28.359 --> 01:37:30.279
<v Speaker 2>his father. Remember the whole thing about how his father

1710
01:37:30.840 --> 01:37:32.359
<v Speaker 2>died and he went to the funeral and that's why

1711
01:37:32.359 --> 01:37:35.560
<v Speaker 2>he no showed shows in the ninety six run Yep, yep,

1712
01:37:35.640 --> 01:37:37.720
<v Speaker 2>and he couldn't possibly care that he died. Yeah, that

1713
01:37:37.800 --> 01:37:39.920
<v Speaker 2>is pretty fucked up. He says, what other employer would

1714
01:37:39.960 --> 01:37:42.600
<v Speaker 2>consider how close you said you were to your late

1715
01:37:42.680 --> 01:37:45.479
<v Speaker 2>father as a basis to grant bereavement leave?

1716
01:37:46.520 --> 01:37:49.399
<v Speaker 3>Well, I believe in Well, First of all, I need evidence.

1717
01:37:49.520 --> 01:37:51.479
<v Speaker 3>Oh you're all broken up about it, hump hell. I mean,

1718
01:37:51.680 --> 01:37:53.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, all of a sudden, you're caring about an

1719
01:37:53.760 --> 01:37:55.640
<v Speaker 3>individual that I know for a fact you didn't care about.

1720
01:37:55.680 --> 01:37:59.239
<v Speaker 3>Can I have evidence to show that your relationship got better?

1721
01:37:59.279 --> 01:38:02.800
<v Speaker 2>My business is going to be substantially impaired by this

1722
01:38:02.920 --> 01:38:05.439
<v Speaker 2>decision you've made, and I fill on within my rights

1723
01:38:05.439 --> 01:38:09.199
<v Speaker 2>to properly diligence the basis on which you're causing that impairment.

1724
01:38:09.600 --> 01:38:11.640
<v Speaker 3>If you know, I mean you're under contract with.

1725
01:38:11.680 --> 01:38:15.359
<v Speaker 2>Me, which means I can do it contract with your

1726
01:38:15.359 --> 01:38:18.439
<v Speaker 2>father's funeral, right, So yeah, I take that.

1727
01:38:19.239 --> 01:38:22.159
<v Speaker 3>Where do we Where do we stand now? Are you

1728
01:38:22.199 --> 01:38:24.920
<v Speaker 3>in breach of contract with your father by not attending

1729
01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:25.399
<v Speaker 3>his funeral?

1730
01:38:25.600 --> 01:38:28.359
<v Speaker 2>Of course not? Or is that contract with him melon

1731
01:38:28.399 --> 01:38:30.800
<v Speaker 2>void anyway because he's dead. You never cared a shit.

1732
01:38:30.840 --> 01:38:33.119
<v Speaker 2>He never cared about you, and you never cared about him.

1733
01:38:33.319 --> 01:38:35.479
<v Speaker 2>So if you need to go there, I need evidence

1734
01:38:35.840 --> 01:38:38.520
<v Speaker 2>that you truly had a relationship. I don't need hard,

1735
01:38:39.520 --> 01:38:47.439
<v Speaker 2>concrete evidence, whether it's pictures, letters exchanged through the mail, videos,

1736
01:38:47.680 --> 01:38:50.920
<v Speaker 2>whatever I need. I need a significant amount of evidence

1737
01:38:51.159 --> 01:38:54.479
<v Speaker 2>to prove that you had a true relationship and that

1738
01:38:54.560 --> 01:38:59.760
<v Speaker 2>you are that you are suffering because I Jim will

1739
01:38:59.800 --> 01:39:02.319
<v Speaker 2>not be taken advantage of because I'll tell you what,

1740
01:39:03.039 --> 01:39:07.720
<v Speaker 2>you will not make me suffertly. I lost my dad too.

1741
01:39:09.159 --> 01:39:10.920
<v Speaker 2>You don't see me citing it as a reason to

1742
01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:11.760
<v Speaker 2>miss shots.

1743
01:39:14.840 --> 01:39:16.880
<v Speaker 3>In fact, I doubled down on work after he died,

1744
01:39:18.359 --> 01:39:19.920
<v Speaker 3>and I'm gonna double down on your ass.

1745
01:39:22.039 --> 01:39:26.039
<v Speaker 2>That's how he deals with talent. Tyler aries. Thank you

01:39:33.439 --> 01:39:35.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna give you this one. This is a first

1749
01:39:35.439 --> 01:39:41.479
<v Speaker 2>time emailer, so that's that's always cause for celebration around

1750
01:39:41.520 --> 01:39:44.000
<v Speaker 2>these parts. Oh, by the way, now that we just

1754
01:39:54.119 --> 01:39:59.039

1755
01:39:59.039 --> 01:40:02.000
<v Speaker 2>miss it too. So many things trend just transitioning, you know,

1756
01:40:02.079 --> 01:40:04.399
<v Speaker 2>so many things in the before times in the after times.

1757
01:40:04.560 --> 01:40:06.239
<v Speaker 2>There's a line in the sand being drawn here at

1758
01:40:06.239 --> 01:40:07.720
<v Speaker 2>the midpoint of twenty twenty five.

1759
01:40:08.399 --> 01:40:08.600

<v Speaker 2>But yep, the second half of that email lets you

1761
01:40:11.159 --> 01:40:13.239
<v Speaker 2>know that he's still going to very much be in

1762
01:40:13.279 --> 01:40:16.880
<v Speaker 2>contention even if he doesn't have that that resource available

1763
01:40:16.880 --> 01:40:17.960
<v Speaker 2>to him. But let's hear from Cliff.

1764
01:40:18.239 --> 01:40:20.840
<v Speaker 3>And also, just so you know, so the bleach Blonde

1765
01:40:20.840 --> 01:40:23.920
<v Speaker 3>that that one person was angry about is Live Morgan,

1766
01:40:24.000 --> 01:40:26.399
<v Speaker 3>Live Morgan. Okay, Sorry, I stand I stand by that.

1767
01:40:26.560 --> 01:40:27.680
<v Speaker 3>That's right.

1768
01:40:27.720 --> 01:40:28.439
<v Speaker 2>On brand for you.

1769
01:40:28.560 --> 01:40:34.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yep, yep. Greetings co chairs and fellow connoisseurs of

1770
01:40:34.439 --> 01:40:40.079
<v Speaker 3>consensual combats, right, consensual comp that's you listen to what

1771
01:40:40.119 --> 01:40:43.159
<v Speaker 3>it is. I wonder if they have I'm sure they

1772
01:40:43.159 --> 01:40:44.680
<v Speaker 3>don't because they don't have a union and they don't

1773
01:40:44.680 --> 01:40:49.279
<v Speaker 3>have anyone, you know. But I was like intimacy coordinators,

1774
01:40:49.399 --> 01:40:52.720
<v Speaker 3>like most like films have to have nowadays, you know,

1775
01:40:52.920 --> 01:40:55.720
<v Speaker 3>in regards to given that it is a very much uh,

1776
01:40:56.039 --> 01:41:01.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, physical contact form of entertainment, you know. First

1777
01:41:01.880 --> 01:41:06.960
<v Speaker 3>time emailer, longtime e listener like that. I wanted to

1778
01:41:07.000 --> 01:41:08.760
<v Speaker 3>send you both an email for a long time, but

1779
01:41:08.800 --> 01:41:13.840
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to make my first message cats spirit. I

1780
01:41:13.880 --> 01:41:17.079
<v Speaker 3>think now is the right time to reach out. I

1781
01:41:17.079 --> 01:41:19.640
<v Speaker 3>came across your podcast in March of twenty twenty one

1782
01:41:20.119 --> 01:41:24.399
<v Speaker 3>on a Twitter thread recommending new wrestling podcast mentioned TLF

1783
01:41:24.640 --> 01:41:27.840
<v Speaker 3>and said it was worth a listen. Like for many,

1784
01:41:27.880 --> 01:41:31.079
<v Speaker 3>the runtime was daunting at first, but that spring wasn't

1785
01:41:31.079 --> 01:41:34.479
<v Speaker 3>easy for me. My grandmother and I basically had to

1786
01:41:34.479 --> 01:41:36.239
<v Speaker 3>move out of our house for a week while it

1787
01:41:36.319 --> 01:41:37.960
<v Speaker 3>was being bug bombed.

1788
01:41:38.239 --> 01:41:39.560
<v Speaker 2>That's the worst.

1789
01:41:40.159 --> 01:41:42.079
<v Speaker 3>It was not a fun time. I crashed in my

1790
01:41:42.079 --> 01:41:44.359
<v Speaker 3>mother's living room for a week on an air mattress

1791
01:41:44.920 --> 01:41:52.000
<v Speaker 3>and started that started deflating after four days. Yeah, that's

1792
01:41:52.039 --> 01:41:53.840
<v Speaker 3>the worst feeling when when you're when you're sleeping on

1793
01:41:53.840 --> 01:41:55.119
<v Speaker 3>an air mattress and all of a sudden, you can

1794
01:41:55.199 --> 01:41:57.920
<v Speaker 3>you know that it's like wait a minute, like you

1795
01:41:58.039 --> 01:42:00.439
<v Speaker 3>like you're laying on your stomach. You're laying your stomach,

1796
01:42:00.479 --> 01:42:02.199
<v Speaker 3>but you're like sinking in the middle, and so you're

1797
01:42:02.560 --> 01:42:05.960
<v Speaker 3>you know, to feel the hard ground. Yeah, yeah, that's

1798
01:42:06.000 --> 01:42:06.399
<v Speaker 3>not good.

1799
01:42:09.199 --> 01:42:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

1800
01:42:10.199 --> 01:42:12.479
<v Speaker 3>And found comfort in the release of a video game

1801
01:42:12.680 --> 01:42:15.239
<v Speaker 3>I've been looking forward to for well over a year

1802
01:42:15.760 --> 01:42:19.039
<v Speaker 3>and this new college podcast I was quote trying out

1803
01:42:19.079 --> 01:42:23.720
<v Speaker 3>that effortlessly distracted me for hours on end. Fast forward

1804
01:42:23.720 --> 01:42:26.640
<v Speaker 3>four years, and I don't know when the quote trying

1805
01:42:26.640 --> 01:42:30.960
<v Speaker 3>out period ended and the quote never stopping unquote period started.

1806
01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:35.640
<v Speaker 3>But I guess that's all. That's how all addictions work. Right.

1807
01:42:36.560 --> 01:42:38.920
<v Speaker 3>To say your pod became something of an obsession to

1808
01:42:38.960 --> 01:42:41.680
<v Speaker 3>me would be an understatement. I created a spreadsheet to

1809
01:42:41.720 --> 01:42:46.000
<v Speaker 3>catalog every show you did and their run times, were

1810
01:42:46.000 --> 01:42:49.479
<v Speaker 3>they a Hopper winner, what journey they were a part of,

1811
01:42:50.199 --> 01:42:53.680
<v Speaker 3>and if I've listened to it or not. It's a

1812
01:42:53.720 --> 01:42:56.960
<v Speaker 3>work in progress. I create playlists in Spotify to keep

1813
01:42:57.000 --> 01:43:00.840
<v Speaker 3>track of episodes and journeys. Does it matter to anyone

1814
01:43:00.840 --> 01:43:03.359
<v Speaker 3>else that both parts of In Your House eight Beware

1815
01:43:03.399 --> 01:43:07.079
<v Speaker 3>of Dog was six hours and fifty seven minutes total. Wow,

1816
01:43:07.640 --> 01:43:11.920
<v Speaker 3>both parts the same time? That's crazy? No, But do

1817
01:43:12.000 --> 01:43:14.439
<v Speaker 3>I love knowing that every show from nineteen ninety seven

1818
01:43:14.439 --> 01:43:18.479
<v Speaker 3>clocks in at almost one hundred eleven hours. The Stark

1819
01:43:18.600 --> 01:43:20.920
<v Speaker 3>Memorial Tour is eleven minutes shy of one hundred and

1820
01:43:20.920 --> 01:43:24.640
<v Speaker 3>twenty hours long at your magnum opus. The journey I've

1821
01:43:24.720 --> 01:43:27.880
<v Speaker 3>dove into three times, the lamentable tragedy of World Class

1822
01:43:28.039 --> 01:43:32.880
<v Speaker 3>is eighty eight hours thirty six minutes long. I can't believe, actually,

1823
01:43:32.920 --> 01:43:39.640
<v Speaker 3>that the WCCW World Class is less than Starcade. I

1824
01:43:39.680 --> 01:43:42.720
<v Speaker 3>would have thought because that was just such a long,

1825
01:43:44.640 --> 01:43:48.640
<v Speaker 3>a long period of time. But yes, it gets my

1826
01:43:48.840 --> 01:43:53.359
<v Speaker 3>fucking dick hard knowing you've spent hundreds and hundreds, no

1827
01:43:53.520 --> 01:44:00.000
<v Speaker 3>thousands of minutes buried deep inside me. Yes, staying there

1828
01:44:00.159 --> 01:44:03.479
<v Speaker 3>until your are finished and holding on just a little

1829
01:44:03.479 --> 01:44:08.840
<v Speaker 3>bit longer because you aren't finished yet, that's the right way.

1830
01:44:08.960 --> 01:44:16.520
<v Speaker 3>That's it. That's it. We stay until we're finished, but

1831
01:44:16.600 --> 01:44:19.159
<v Speaker 3>we hold on a little bit longer because we're not finished.

1832
01:44:19.199 --> 01:44:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Wow, Holy shit.

1833
01:44:23.319 --> 01:44:25.159
<v Speaker 3>I say all of this only to bring the mood

1834
01:44:25.159 --> 01:44:27.239
<v Speaker 3>of the email crashing back down to earth for a moment.

1835
01:44:27.279 --> 01:44:30.279
<v Speaker 3>I've struggled with an addiction for probably ten years now,

1836
01:44:30.319 --> 01:44:34.039
<v Speaker 3>not realizing my seemingly vice was a crippling addiction until

1837
01:44:34.079 --> 01:44:36.880
<v Speaker 3>I was making up excuses that after moving in with

1838
01:44:36.960 --> 01:44:39.880
<v Speaker 3>my fiance to hide away from her at night to

1839
01:44:40.000 --> 01:44:42.760
<v Speaker 3>indulge or would waste hours of my day when I

1840
01:44:42.800 --> 01:44:45.920
<v Speaker 3>was home alone buried in my addiction, knowing full well

1841
01:44:45.960 --> 01:44:48.439
<v Speaker 3>I would come out of the other side regretting every

1842
01:44:48.479 --> 01:44:52.159
<v Speaker 3>second I just wasted beating myself up for the rest

1843
01:44:52.239 --> 01:44:55.479
<v Speaker 3>of the day. Couple that with a recent diagnosis of

1844
01:44:55.520 --> 01:44:59.439
<v Speaker 3>depression and a history of generalized anxiety, twenty twenty five

1845
01:44:59.479 --> 01:45:01.720
<v Speaker 3>has been a to find dog shit year for me.

1846
01:45:03.159 --> 01:45:05.039
<v Speaker 3>I've been off work since April as a result, and

1847
01:45:05.079 --> 01:45:08.039
<v Speaker 3>I'm trying to find a new direction in life. Thankfully,

1848
01:45:08.119 --> 01:45:11.119
<v Speaker 3>my fiance is incredibly supportive and has given me more

1849
01:45:11.159 --> 01:45:14.800
<v Speaker 3>grace and understanding than I deserve. If she only, if

1850
01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:17.279
<v Speaker 3>only she knew how badly I was cheating on her.

1851
01:45:17.600 --> 01:45:19.920
<v Speaker 3>With the two of you, every spare minute I have

1852
01:45:21.079 --> 01:45:24.079
<v Speaker 3>holding you both deep inside while I do menial chores

1853
01:45:24.119 --> 01:45:26.880
<v Speaker 3>around the house or cooking our meals and making the

1854
01:45:26.920 --> 01:45:32.279
<v Speaker 3>most boring tasks doable. Maybe she'd rethink her engagement. Maybe

1855
01:45:32.439 --> 01:45:35.199
<v Speaker 3>she will when I get her a lapsed wife shirt.

1856
01:45:35.640 --> 01:45:37.319
<v Speaker 3>Once we finally tie the knob couple.

1857
01:45:38.000 --> 01:45:38.600
<v Speaker 2>They're out there.

1858
01:45:39.840 --> 01:45:43.720
<v Speaker 3>This's happened. It's great, and I love that. I started

1859
01:45:43.720 --> 01:45:45.920
<v Speaker 3>a blog a year ago and I've been having the

1860
01:45:45.920 --> 01:45:48.039
<v Speaker 3>time of my life writing about wrestling from all over

1861
01:45:48.079 --> 01:45:50.600
<v Speaker 3>the world. I've linked it at the bottom of the

1862
01:45:51.000 --> 01:45:52.800
<v Speaker 3>of this email if you care to check it out

1863
01:45:52.920 --> 01:45:56.079
<v Speaker 3>or shot me out. I can't stand reading pages that

1864
01:45:56.159 --> 01:45:59.520
<v Speaker 3>only cover the current product and give bland boring play

1865
01:45:59.520 --> 01:46:01.960
<v Speaker 3>by play write ups of what happened in the week.

1866
01:46:02.319 --> 01:46:05.479
<v Speaker 3>Just recently, I covered a match from Deadlock Pro Wrestling

1867
01:46:05.680 --> 01:46:09.319
<v Speaker 3>in twenty twenty four and an NWA Los Angeles match

1868
01:46:09.319 --> 01:46:12.880
<v Speaker 3>from nineteen fifty one in the same post. I watch

1869
01:46:13.039 --> 01:46:16.720
<v Speaker 3>and review everything and anything. I'm not picky. It keeps

1870
01:46:16.720 --> 01:46:19.279
<v Speaker 3>me busy during the week and lets me explore this hokey,

1871
01:46:19.359 --> 01:46:26.880
<v Speaker 3>insane world of body slam ballet for brainless buffs, Body

1872
01:46:26.960 --> 01:46:32.800
<v Speaker 3>slam ballet for brainless Buffs. I've even started collecting in

1873
01:46:32.920 --> 01:46:36.319
<v Speaker 3>old wrestling magazines and VHS tapes and digitizing them. In

1874
01:46:36.319 --> 01:46:39.479
<v Speaker 3>my spare time, I'm working on my own coliseum collection

1875
01:46:39.560 --> 01:46:44.079
<v Speaker 3>with THEWW network or with the WW networked out now

1876
01:46:44.439 --> 01:46:47.680
<v Speaker 3>dead and buried for US Canadians. It's become my passion

1877
01:46:47.720 --> 01:46:49.960
<v Speaker 3>and I want to explore it further and maybe even

1878
01:46:50.000 --> 01:46:52.880
<v Speaker 3>make a couple of bucks off of my writing. Starting

1879
01:46:52.880 --> 01:46:55.319
<v Speaker 3>my blog and expanding my wrestling horizons has given me

1880
01:46:55.359 --> 01:46:59.079
<v Speaker 3>the courage to stop watching WWE Cold Turkey. I have

1881
01:46:59.159 --> 01:47:01.600
<v Speaker 3>been fed up with the f for months now, but

1882
01:47:01.760 --> 01:47:05.000
<v Speaker 3>kept watching p Le's out of habit and wanting to

1883
01:47:05.079 --> 01:47:07.159
<v Speaker 3>keep up with the product. But the closer I got

1884
01:47:07.159 --> 01:47:10.079
<v Speaker 3>to WrestleMania forty one this year, the harder it got

1885
01:47:10.079 --> 01:47:17.359
<v Speaker 3>to justify watching this slop. If I heard, if I

1886
01:47:17.600 --> 01:47:24.479
<v Speaker 3>heard Triple H say, oh come on, where the fuck

1887
01:47:24.560 --> 01:47:29.960
<v Speaker 3>is it? What we do? There were God in an

1888
01:47:29.960 --> 01:47:33.239
<v Speaker 3>interview one more time, I was going to throw myself

1889
01:47:33.359 --> 01:47:36.880
<v Speaker 3>headfirst into a wall. I did a scorched earth blog

1890
01:47:36.920 --> 01:47:39.640
<v Speaker 3>post about WWE and gave it up completely after seeing

1891
01:47:39.640 --> 01:47:42.039
<v Speaker 3>a beat Rhodes in one of the worst Mania main

1892
01:47:42.079 --> 01:47:45.079
<v Speaker 3>events I've seen in a long time. But that doesn't

1893
01:47:45.159 --> 01:47:47.439
<v Speaker 3>mean I won't get my fix from my co chairs.

1894
01:47:47.479 --> 01:47:50.319
<v Speaker 3>Once an addict, always an addict. I couldn't help myself.

1895
01:47:50.359 --> 01:47:53.000
<v Speaker 3>I love your breakdown of the senior heel turn before Mania.

1896
01:47:53.239 --> 01:47:56.279
<v Speaker 3>You both said everything I was thinking about this turn

1897
01:47:56.319 --> 01:47:58.720
<v Speaker 3>and validated my fears that this was going to be

1898
01:47:58.760 --> 01:48:02.720
<v Speaker 3>a huge stake. So after the Manium made event, I

1899
01:48:02.760 --> 01:48:05.560
<v Speaker 3>was out running errands and I felt that itch. I

1900
01:48:05.600 --> 01:48:07.760
<v Speaker 3>wonder where they thought of that main event. They couldn't

1901
01:48:07.800 --> 01:48:10.920
<v Speaker 3>have been happy with it, I wondered to myself. Almost

1902
01:48:10.920 --> 01:48:13.479
<v Speaker 3>an autopilot, I pulled out my phone and loaded up

1903
01:48:13.520 --> 01:48:16.000
<v Speaker 3>the Patreon app, the same app I once gave a

1904
01:48:16.079 --> 01:48:18.479
<v Speaker 3>musician a dollar a week to produce music I wasn't

1905
01:48:18.479 --> 01:48:21.000
<v Speaker 3>listening to any more. The app I once gave a

1906
01:48:21.039 --> 01:48:23.399
<v Speaker 3>dollar to a podcast I wasn't listening to any more.

1907
01:48:23.880 --> 01:48:26.199
<v Speaker 3>The app I was using to follow people and be

1908
01:48:26.239 --> 01:48:29.560
<v Speaker 3>a freeloading bitch. On the very same app, I am

1909
01:48:29.600 --> 01:48:32.039
<v Speaker 3>now giving twenty two dollars a month for something that

1910
01:48:32.119 --> 01:48:34.600
<v Speaker 3>is essential to my day to day life. I considered

1911
01:48:34.680 --> 01:48:37.720
<v Speaker 3>backing out A week or two later. I'm unemployed, I thought,

1912
01:48:38.000 --> 01:48:40.319
<v Speaker 3>I need to save money everywhere I can. Fuck it,

1913
01:48:40.399 --> 01:48:43.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm canceling out her bullshit subscriptions to keep that ivy

1914
01:48:44.039 --> 01:48:46.920
<v Speaker 3>hooked directly into my veins. The lapse fan is the

1915
01:48:46.960 --> 01:48:49.520
<v Speaker 3>fucking truth, and I will happily die on this hill

1916
01:48:49.840 --> 01:48:52.920
<v Speaker 3>for my co chairs. I wrap up this email by

1917
01:48:52.960 --> 01:48:55.680
<v Speaker 3>saying thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you.

1918
01:48:55.760 --> 01:48:58.920
<v Speaker 3>TLF has done more for me than some of my family,

1919
01:48:58.960 --> 01:49:01.760
<v Speaker 3>my friends, and any amount of medicine has to help me,

1920
01:49:03.159 --> 01:49:06.560
<v Speaker 3>has to has to help me keep going. Depression and

1921
01:49:06.640 --> 01:49:10.399
<v Speaker 3>addiction can can kick rocks, and I am determined to

1922
01:49:10.479 --> 01:49:13.000
<v Speaker 3>kick both of them and take you two along with me.

1923
01:49:13.319 --> 01:49:17.039
<v Speaker 3>It's not easy, but nothing worth doing ever is. There

1924
01:49:17.079 --> 01:49:19.079
<v Speaker 3>is light at the end of the time that I

1925
01:49:19.279 --> 01:49:21.520
<v Speaker 3>that I still can't see, and I don't care.

1926
01:49:21.359 --> 01:49:22.840
<v Speaker 2>How long the road is ahead of me. I have

1927
01:49:23.000 --> 01:49:27.000
<v Speaker 2>all I need to keep me going, buried deep inside

1928
01:49:27.560 --> 01:49:31.680
<v Speaker 2>yours in sports fakery. Cliff, Salute, Salute Cliff.

1929
01:49:32.800 --> 01:49:33.319
<v Speaker 3>Damn right.

1930
01:49:33.680 --> 01:49:36.800
<v Speaker 2>We'll keep casting. That's all we can do. We'll keep casting,

1931
01:49:37.920 --> 01:49:43.920
<v Speaker 2>Daniel writes. Vince explains ww T Saboo, it really makes

1932
01:49:43.920 --> 01:49:45.560
<v Speaker 2>me laugh when laps Vince goes off on a one

1933
01:49:45.600 --> 01:49:50.159
<v Speaker 2>sided conversation. I thought I would transcribe the one from

1934
01:49:50.159 --> 01:49:52.439
<v Speaker 2>the most recent episode where Vince is explaining to Saboo

1935
01:49:52.479 --> 01:49:54.119
<v Speaker 2>why he needs to do promos and become a real

1936
01:49:54.199 --> 01:49:54.960
<v Speaker 2>WW character.

1937
01:49:55.239 --> 01:49:56.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, what.

1938
01:49:56.439 --> 01:50:01.840
<v Speaker 2>If we may do the Great Saboo fly in We

1939
01:50:01.880 --> 01:50:09.880
<v Speaker 2>could create a toy with wings, the Flying Saboo. Then

1940
01:50:09.920 --> 01:50:12.079
<v Speaker 2>we could have variations on the action figures. We could

1941
01:50:12.079 --> 01:50:21.640
<v Speaker 2>have combat Saboo or Sabu the garbage man. You see,

1942
01:50:21.640 --> 01:50:24.520
<v Speaker 2>the kids can create their own stories. We provide a template.

1943
01:50:26.479 --> 01:50:28.920
<v Speaker 2>The kids can create their own stories. We provide a template.

1944
01:50:30.319 --> 01:50:34.399
<v Speaker 2>It's so funny. Oh my god, Oh my god, that's

1945
01:50:34.439 --> 01:50:35.439
<v Speaker 2>the funniest shit ever.

1946
01:50:35.479 --> 01:50:35.640
<v Speaker 4>Hear.

1947
01:50:36.880 --> 01:50:41.359
<v Speaker 2>We provide a template. You see the WWE And I

1948
01:50:41.399 --> 01:50:45.359
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you're aware of this. We're a publicly

1949
01:50:45.399 --> 01:50:49.239
<v Speaker 2>traded media conglomerate and we have offices in Connecticut, New York,

1950
01:50:49.279 --> 01:50:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Australia, Toronto, Tokyo, different places. And

1951
01:50:54.840 --> 01:50:57.439
<v Speaker 2>we provide a multitude of weekly content that is a

1952
01:50:57.479 --> 01:51:03.800
<v Speaker 2>template for branching off into personal story telling. I couldn't

1953
01:51:03.800 --> 01:51:07.600
<v Speaker 2>finish it. Hold on, and we provide a multitude of

1954
01:51:07.680 --> 01:51:10.239
<v Speaker 2>weekly content that is a template for branching off into

1955
01:51:10.239 --> 01:51:13.640
<v Speaker 2>personal storytelling. As we inspire others to create their own stories.

1956
01:51:19.800 --> 01:51:20.199
<v Speaker 2>It's not.

1957
01:51:21.960 --> 01:51:26.079
<v Speaker 3>It's not even about creating, like fucking television shows. It's

1958
01:51:26.119 --> 01:51:30.439
<v Speaker 3>about creating. It's about creating stuff that can then.

1959
01:51:32.279 --> 01:51:39.199
<v Speaker 2>Inspire kids to do storylines with their action figures. So

1960
01:51:39.199 --> 01:51:42.600
<v Speaker 2>so you have to execute our story in order to

1961
01:51:42.720 --> 01:51:48.920
<v Speaker 2>inspire others to create their source. And in doing so,

1962
01:51:49.199 --> 01:51:52.079
<v Speaker 2>we involve the different aspects of this digital age that

1963
01:51:52.119 --> 01:51:54.239
<v Speaker 2>we live in, dealing with all sorts of verticals and

1964
01:51:54.600 --> 01:51:59.079
<v Speaker 2>return ROI very big on ROI and the Ara.

1965
01:51:59.239 --> 01:51:59.640
<v Speaker 3>You get it.

1966
01:51:59.640 --> 01:52:00.000
<v Speaker 2>You get it.

1967
01:52:00.039 --> 01:52:03.000
<v Speaker 3>You speak my language. You know, Oh my god, you

1968
01:52:03.039 --> 01:52:06.680
<v Speaker 3>know something. You know, it's very funny. It's like it's

1969
01:52:06.720 --> 01:52:10.000
<v Speaker 3>like I I I listen to this, you know, and

1970
01:52:10.039 --> 01:52:13.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh my god, like like he sounds like Trump,

1971
01:52:14.239 --> 01:52:18.239
<v Speaker 3>he speaks like tru guess. Yeah, you know you love

1972
01:52:18.880 --> 01:52:19.479
<v Speaker 3>the Big Family.

1973
01:52:19.560 --> 01:52:21.439
<v Speaker 2>You know. It's like it's it's hilarious. Yeah, that's a

1974
01:52:21.479 --> 01:52:23.039
<v Speaker 2>good point. Yeah, there's a little bit of that going

1975
01:52:23.079 --> 01:52:26.479
<v Speaker 2>on here. You speak my language. And then I piped

1976
01:52:26.520 --> 01:52:28.840
<v Speaker 2>in and said, your original ring name, as I understand it,

1977
01:52:28.840 --> 01:52:35.039
<v Speaker 2>Pale was Terry s r O. I right, that's what

1978
01:52:35.079 --> 01:52:39.039
<v Speaker 2>it was, Terry s Return on Investment. Okay, you're ready.

1979
01:52:39.039 --> 01:52:41.680
<v Speaker 2>This is this brings it home. And Daniel took the

1980
01:52:41.720 --> 01:52:44.399
<v Speaker 2>time to transcribe this That's how you know we hit

1981
01:52:44.640 --> 01:52:47.800
<v Speaker 2>something big when someone writes us and just transcribes what

1982
01:52:47.840 --> 01:52:51.239
<v Speaker 2>we said. Oh my god, that's right, that's what it was.

1983
01:52:51.479 --> 01:52:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Terry s return on investment. I see no problem with

1984
01:52:55.039 --> 01:53:00.920
<v Speaker 2>how we advance. Go forth, create, inspire, tell us story,

1985
01:53:10.199 --> 01:53:13.520
<v Speaker 2>go forth, go forth.

1986
01:53:13.359 --> 01:53:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Go forth. Oh you know, this is this is the

1987
01:53:22.119 --> 01:53:31.479
<v Speaker 3>this is this is what's I'm I'm, I'm what what

1988
01:53:31.479 --> 01:53:37.840
<v Speaker 3>What makes me laugh about that is that? And and

1989
01:53:37.920 --> 01:53:40.279
<v Speaker 3>in a weird way, it makes me angry at myself

1990
01:53:42.680 --> 01:53:46.800
<v Speaker 3>because I could never fucking write that ship. It came

1991
01:53:46.800 --> 01:53:47.399
<v Speaker 3>out of my brain.

1992
01:53:47.520 --> 01:53:50.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well it came out of your lapsed Vince brain.

1993
01:53:50.840 --> 01:53:54.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. But I could never sit down and fuck write that.

1994
01:53:54.119 --> 01:53:54.600
<v Speaker 2>Definitely not.

1995
01:53:55.760 --> 01:54:00.039
<v Speaker 3>That's why audio fucking rules, man, Oh that's why rules.

1996
01:54:00.439 --> 01:54:05.159
<v Speaker 3>That's just fucking hilarious. Andrew, greetings from Zombia. This is

1997
01:54:05.199 --> 01:54:08.159
<v Speaker 3>a first, dearest co Chairman. I write to you from

1998
01:54:08.159 --> 01:54:11.159
<v Speaker 3>the heart of Livingstone, Zombia. I wonder how many lapsed

1999
01:54:11.159 --> 01:54:13.399
<v Speaker 3>fans are here with me. Over the last week I've

2000
01:54:13.439 --> 01:54:15.560
<v Speaker 3>been here for work, my days starting very early and

2001
01:54:15.600 --> 01:54:18.159
<v Speaker 3>going very late when I travel for work, especially being

2002
01:54:18.159 --> 01:54:20.079
<v Speaker 3>so far away from home and my beautiful wife and daughter.

2003
01:54:20.239 --> 01:54:22.399
<v Speaker 3>I have a hard time, very hard time sleeping and

2004
01:54:22.399 --> 01:54:25.439
<v Speaker 3>staying mindful andsane during the stressful time. The show has

2005
01:54:25.479 --> 01:54:27.640
<v Speaker 3>been my salve, a the thing I can look forward

2006
01:54:27.640 --> 01:54:29.199
<v Speaker 3>to when I put my head down at night. Here

2007
01:54:29.239 --> 01:54:31.399
<v Speaker 3>at the hotel, I've been running on three to four

2008
01:54:31.439 --> 01:54:33.319
<v Speaker 3>hours of sleep each day for the last week or so.

2009
01:54:33.640 --> 01:54:35.600
<v Speaker 3>But I'm less stressed about my sleep because I am

2010
01:54:35.640 --> 01:54:37.840
<v Speaker 3>able to put my headphones in and tune out and relax.

2011
01:54:38.159 --> 01:54:40.840
<v Speaker 3>This week, I've caught up on the thirty week Mania journey,

2012
01:54:41.039 --> 01:54:43.439
<v Speaker 3>speaking of which I think thirty one to forty really

2013
01:54:43.479 --> 01:54:44.720
<v Speaker 3>deserved lapsed treatment.

2014
01:54:44.760 --> 01:54:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I hope you consider it a remarkable follow up. At

2015
01:54:47.960 --> 01:54:50.079
<v Speaker 2>the hotel, I was hanging out in the conference room

2016
01:54:50.119 --> 01:54:53.039
<v Speaker 2>working late still here at almost nine p m. When

2017
01:54:53.039 --> 01:54:54.840
<v Speaker 2>one of the hotel staff came in, a young man

2018
01:54:54.880 --> 01:54:57.279
<v Speaker 2>around the age of nineteen. We started bullshitting, and I

2019
01:54:57.279 --> 01:54:59.159
<v Speaker 2>asked what his favorite TV shows and movies are. He

2020
01:54:59.199 --> 01:55:01.520
<v Speaker 2>then told me, I sh you not bashfully and just

2021
01:55:01.560 --> 01:55:03.520
<v Speaker 2>as full of shame as any one of us should have.

2022
01:55:03.880 --> 01:55:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Do you know wrestling? Actually? Never mind. We immediately bonded

2023
01:55:08.560 --> 01:55:12.119
<v Speaker 2>over our shared public interest pathetic interest rather, Although I

2024
01:55:12.159 --> 01:55:14.279
<v Speaker 2>don't think he knew or cared about anything we.

2025
01:55:14.359 --> 01:55:20.000
<v Speaker 3>Heard of public interest we have we have a public company.

2026
01:55:20.800 --> 01:55:22.119
<v Speaker 2>In case that was not clear to you.

2027
01:55:22.720 --> 01:55:24.159
<v Speaker 3>I'm very interested in public interests.

2028
01:55:25.600 --> 01:55:27.479
<v Speaker 2>We then were bolts of very interested in what the

2029
01:55:27.479 --> 01:55:28.520
<v Speaker 2>public is interested in.

2030
01:55:29.920 --> 01:55:32.760
<v Speaker 3>Exactly, I'm very I'm very interested in interest.

2031
01:55:32.800 --> 01:55:33.840
<v Speaker 2>At the end of the day, we're in the fan

2032
01:55:33.920 --> 01:55:38.800
<v Speaker 2>service business. We then discussed his love for Randy Orton.

2033
01:55:38.840 --> 01:55:40.960
<v Speaker 2>It cannot be underestimated how much global appeal Orton and

2034
01:55:41.039 --> 01:55:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Seena have. It's staggering. No lapsed fans here, but sure enough,

2035
01:55:44.319 --> 01:55:46.479
<v Speaker 2>like I saw most certainly in a few years he

2036
01:55:46.560 --> 01:55:50.119
<v Speaker 2>will be. We did it. Great dispatch. That's our first

2037
01:55:50.119 --> 01:55:53.600
<v Speaker 2>from Zambia. Man, that's a new one. That is a

2038
01:55:53.640 --> 01:55:56.720
<v Speaker 2>new one for SUREA writes to us on our Saboo tribute.

2039
01:55:56.760 --> 01:55:58.760
<v Speaker 2>So glad you mentioned Saboo's match with Owen Hart a

2040
01:55:58.800 --> 01:56:01.560
<v Speaker 2>dark match in WWF. I was actually at that show.

2041
01:56:01.840 --> 01:56:04.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god. Everyone wants to see video of that

2042
01:56:04.479 --> 01:56:06.600
<v Speaker 2>and see if it exists, and have been meaning to

2043
01:56:06.600 --> 01:56:08.840
<v Speaker 2>write about it since Sabu passed. We had no idea

2044
01:56:09.039 --> 01:56:10.720
<v Speaker 2>who Sabu was at that point, but he had a

2045
01:56:10.720 --> 01:56:13.239
<v Speaker 2>full presentation in that match, a someone that was going

2046
01:56:13.279 --> 01:56:15.079
<v Speaker 2>to be a star. Yeah, we watched the Scottie Too

2047
01:56:15.119 --> 01:56:17.279
<v Speaker 2>hoty mon a Night Rod Dark match. They were presenting

2048
01:56:17.359 --> 01:56:19.359
<v Speaker 2>him as so they weren't putting any handcuffs on that guy.

2049
01:56:19.760 --> 01:56:21.640
<v Speaker 2>He was allowed to go out there and be Saboo

2050
01:56:21.960 --> 01:56:25.479
<v Speaker 2>and the people were into it. This one comes from

2051
01:56:25.560 --> 01:56:27.920
<v Speaker 2>the Germans. Name for me is the Little Mang. That's

2052
01:56:27.960 --> 01:56:32.479
<v Speaker 2>his screen name. He writes in the style and fashion

2053
01:56:32.520 --> 01:56:36.920
<v Speaker 2>of the ECW Sci Fi era Sabo that we spent

2054
01:56:36.960 --> 01:56:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of time getting acquainted with during our Sabu

2055
01:56:39.640 --> 01:56:43.600
<v Speaker 2>tribute series. This is his suggestion for what he might

2056
01:56:43.640 --> 01:56:47.680
<v Speaker 2>say during one of those awkward promos. I'm Sabu and

2057
01:56:47.720 --> 01:57:02.439
<v Speaker 2>tonight I'm going to burn down this hotel. There's another

2058
01:57:02.439 --> 01:57:04.760
<v Speaker 2>good one here. I'm trying to find it again. I

2059
01:57:04.760 --> 01:57:06.439
<v Speaker 2>don't want to go out of order, but there's another

2060
01:57:06.439 --> 01:57:08.239
<v Speaker 2>really good one that someone hit us with. Let me

2061
01:57:08.319 --> 01:57:09.920
<v Speaker 2>see if I can find it, because it just didn't

2062
01:57:09.960 --> 01:57:12.159
<v Speaker 2>fit right here. Oh my god, it would fit right here.

2063
01:57:13.000 --> 01:57:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Uh oh not the guy who was on the elevator

2064
01:57:16.960 --> 01:57:20.600
<v Speaker 2>with Bronson Reid while he was holding Taco bell. This

2065
01:57:20.640 --> 01:57:28.199
<v Speaker 2>one from Zach. I'm Saboo and I approved this message.

2066
01:57:29.239 --> 01:57:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Nick Wright, speaking of Saboo's skin, I was front I

2067
01:57:34.840 --> 01:57:36.239
<v Speaker 2>think I know which of the two of us talked

2068
01:57:36.279 --> 01:57:39.760
<v Speaker 2>about his skin. Oh God, yeah, I was front row

2069
01:57:40.000 --> 01:57:42.279
<v Speaker 2>during an MLW event in Orlando. He wrestled in about

2070
01:57:42.279 --> 01:57:44.600
<v Speaker 2>twenty years ago. Hard to describe it, but its back

2071
01:57:44.720 --> 01:57:48.560
<v Speaker 2>was like a layer of jelly. Oh. I don't know

2072
01:57:48.600 --> 01:57:50.319
<v Speaker 2>if it was built up scar tissue or what, but

2073
01:57:50.439 --> 01:57:53.720
<v Speaker 2>every inch was covered in some kind of scar or pockmark,

2074
01:57:53.840 --> 01:57:57.279
<v Speaker 2>and it looked like a distinct layer from his normal skin.

2075
01:57:59.279 --> 01:58:02.880
<v Speaker 2>It was a jig jelly like, disgusting mess. My friend

2076
01:58:02.960 --> 01:58:04.600
<v Speaker 2>slapped him in the back too hard when he hit

2077
01:58:04.600 --> 01:58:08.159
<v Speaker 2>the guardrail, and Sabo threw a shoot elbow back at him. Tremendous.

2078
01:58:08.319 --> 01:58:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, Western sab Andrew Wright's boss went where my

2079
01:58:14.119 --> 01:58:16.479
<v Speaker 2>head went. The table will soon be replaced by a

2080
01:58:16.560 --> 01:58:22.000
<v Speaker 2>digital table to cut costs and maximize shareholder value. That's right,

2081
01:58:22.399 --> 01:58:26.520
<v Speaker 2>that's right to that. I'm only telling the truth, Rob Wrights,

2082
01:58:26.560 --> 01:58:28.520
<v Speaker 2>You guys joke. But I was actually in an elevator

2083
01:58:28.560 --> 01:58:30.760
<v Speaker 2>once with Bronson Reid when he was holding a taco

2084
01:58:30.800 --> 01:58:33.399
<v Speaker 2>bell order. I just shot a New Japan show in DC.

2085
01:58:33.560 --> 01:58:35.000
<v Speaker 2>We were all back at the hotel and that was

2086
01:58:35.000 --> 01:58:36.880
<v Speaker 2>the only place nearby that was open. Even if there

2087
01:58:36.880 --> 01:58:40.079
<v Speaker 2>were other options. I think he would still I think

2088
01:58:40.159 --> 01:58:44.359
<v Speaker 2>so too, Rob just rack a taco bell. Jeff Cobb

2089
01:58:44.439 --> 01:58:47.239
<v Speaker 2>was also there. I'm sure he didn't have the cob salad. Okay,

2090
01:58:48.880 --> 01:58:51.199
<v Speaker 2>airy forma. Thank you very much for your pledge on Patreon.

2091
01:58:51.279 --> 01:58:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Welcome man Adam Asbourne. We really appreciate your support. Robert

2092
01:58:54.880 --> 01:58:56.399
<v Speaker 2>wants us to think about l A Night as the

2093
01:58:56.920 --> 01:59:04.439
<v Speaker 2>type of arc type can say that archtypical archetypal black

2094
01:59:04.479 --> 01:59:10.159
<v Speaker 2>t shirt bartender, go refill the lime wedges and flush

2095
01:59:10.239 --> 01:59:15.399
<v Speaker 2>the taps because it's ladies night. Picture him. I can

2096
01:59:15.479 --> 01:59:17.079
<v Speaker 2>picture him doing that kind of job.

2097
01:59:17.119 --> 01:59:17.600
<v Speaker 3>I really can.

2098
01:59:18.199 --> 01:59:21.439
<v Speaker 2>The only Night looks like a guy who is working

2099
01:59:21.439 --> 01:59:24.640
<v Speaker 2>in a restaurant in La hoping to get it apart.

2100
01:59:24.840 --> 01:59:26.199
<v Speaker 2>That's what he kind of looks like.

2101
01:59:26.319 --> 01:59:29.079
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, listen, he's got He has got a fucking

2102
01:59:29.119 --> 01:59:31.640
<v Speaker 3>Manila envelope of headshots and resumes in his car.

2103
01:59:31.720 --> 01:59:33.439
<v Speaker 2>It just looks like one of those guys. I don't

2104
01:59:33.479 --> 01:59:35.840
<v Speaker 2>know why he does he does. He does. He does

2105
01:59:35.840 --> 01:59:38.319
<v Speaker 2>look like one of those guys. There's no question, can

2106
01:59:38.359 --> 01:59:40.239
<v Speaker 2>you say one, which is probably why it pisses me

2107
01:59:40.279 --> 01:59:42.560
<v Speaker 2>off off sometimes by looking at him, you know as

2108
01:59:42.600 --> 01:59:45.039
<v Speaker 2>much as I enjoy the guy, you know, there are

2109
01:59:45.039 --> 01:59:47.000
<v Speaker 2>elements that pissed me off about you. Tell me, Like

2110
01:59:47.159 --> 01:59:49.640
<v Speaker 2>one feature that he has that says that to you.

2111
01:59:52.399 --> 01:59:55.439
<v Speaker 3>His hair, his hair, and it's like his his his

2112
01:59:55.600 --> 02:00:00.760
<v Speaker 3>like his high forehead, like I just take is working

2113
02:00:00.760 --> 02:00:04.000
<v Speaker 3>the fucking at a bar or a restaurant, Like I

2114
02:00:04.039 --> 02:00:08.439
<v Speaker 3>can see him fucking waiting tables, rushing back and forth.

2115
02:00:08.760 --> 02:00:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Behind the bar. Is just like with a white towel

2116
02:00:10.680 --> 02:00:12.680
<v Speaker 2>like dry in the inside of a glass, you know,

2117
02:00:13.039 --> 02:00:13.880
<v Speaker 2>a cocktail glass.

2118
02:00:13.920 --> 02:00:17.279
<v Speaker 3>No question. The beard that like his his whole face

2119
02:00:17.560 --> 02:00:21.720
<v Speaker 3>is just is just bartender trying to be an actor.

2120
02:00:21.800 --> 02:00:24.159
<v Speaker 2>He's like he's he's like literally like posing in the

2121
02:00:24.199 --> 02:00:28.239
<v Speaker 2>catalog for the Martini glasses. You know, yeah, yes, yes,

2122
02:00:28.560 --> 02:00:30.840
<v Speaker 2>our Ronaldi writes Sabu was a proud man who wouldn't

2123
02:00:30.840 --> 02:00:33.399
<v Speaker 2>compromise because he felt he was respecting a family tradition

2124
02:00:33.479 --> 02:00:37.119
<v Speaker 2>and ended up regretting not compromising because morals left him

2125
02:00:37.119 --> 02:00:41.159
<v Speaker 2>with no money and drugs. Sometimes in solar system has

2126
02:00:41.159 --> 02:00:42.920
<v Speaker 2>a way of summon it up man, and our SA

2127
02:00:43.239 --> 02:00:47.159
<v Speaker 2>tribute was certainly no exception. Andrew writes, the biggest lie

2128
02:00:47.199 --> 02:00:50.720
<v Speaker 2>we as wrestling fans tell ourselves is that the non extreme, safer, smarter,

2129
02:00:50.960 --> 02:00:54.119
<v Speaker 2>pro wrestlers have better health outcomes. It's a lie and

2130
02:00:54.159 --> 02:00:58.119
<v Speaker 2>we believe it, Yes, Carlo Stallion, pain and shame. Does

2131
02:00:58.159 --> 02:01:00.800
<v Speaker 2>the disease best express itself when we demand they die

2132
02:01:00.840 --> 02:01:03.960
<v Speaker 2>for our entertainment? Or when these brave men literally crawl

2133
02:01:04.039 --> 02:01:08.000
<v Speaker 2>through barb wire for their opportunity to die for our entertainment.

2134
02:01:08.960 --> 02:01:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Josh writes both the guy and the gimmick in the

2135
02:01:10.640 --> 02:01:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Ring with Rob Zikowski in ninety one, with the exact

2136
02:01:12.960 --> 02:01:15.000
<v Speaker 2>same guy and gimmick diving into barb wire in twenty

2137
02:01:15.000 --> 02:01:16.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty five. I'll never be a fan of the guy,

2138
02:01:16.760 --> 02:01:20.199
<v Speaker 2>but there's something remarkable about Sabu being stubbornly and unapologetically

2139
02:01:20.239 --> 02:01:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Saboo for over three decades. No matter which regime he

2140
02:01:22.760 --> 02:01:26.960
<v Speaker 2>was under, Vince couldn't even change him. William writes, Boss

2141
02:01:26.960 --> 02:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>even mentioned it at one some point, But Sabu ended

2142
02:01:29.079 --> 02:01:31.760
<v Speaker 2>up as Randy the Ram. He didn't have anything left.

2143
02:01:31.960 --> 02:01:34.439
<v Speaker 2>His partner was gone, the paydays were gone, his health

2144
02:01:34.520 --> 02:01:36.079
<v Speaker 2>was gone. I don't know if he wanted to die

2145
02:01:36.119 --> 02:01:37.960
<v Speaker 2>that night, but I don't think he would have minded

2146
02:01:37.960 --> 02:01:41.079
<v Speaker 2>that much. The bloat makes me think of congestive heart failure.

2147
02:01:41.119 --> 02:01:43.319
<v Speaker 2>Which can lead to clots. I don't know. I'm left

2148
02:01:43.319 --> 02:01:45.079
<v Speaker 2>feeling so empty and shameful as a fan that we

2149
02:01:45.079 --> 02:01:49.920
<v Speaker 2>pushed these guys to do these things. He also says,

2150
02:01:49.960 --> 02:01:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Abyss absolutely tosses salad, tune a salad, salad, sam salad, seafood, salad,

2151
02:01:56.600 --> 02:02:00.720
<v Speaker 2>basically anything that is primarily mayonnaise chilled and sir, yes,

2152
02:02:00.920 --> 02:02:02.239
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, earn a bowl.

2153
02:02:03.039 --> 02:02:06.159
<v Speaker 3>That's what your sling. Okay, that's what's all about. That's

2154
02:02:06.159 --> 02:02:06.760
<v Speaker 3>what your slang.

2155
02:02:08.000 --> 02:02:10.520
<v Speaker 2>Paully dangerously comes from. Johnny dangerously, not the year of

2156
02:02:10.560 --> 02:02:13.520
<v Speaker 2>living dangerously. That's uh pointed out by Greg. We were

2157
02:02:13.560 --> 02:02:16.439
<v Speaker 2>wondering where that comes from. One day. We'll get to

2158
02:02:16.439 --> 02:02:18.800
<v Speaker 2>the bottom of it. Can we put Johnny Dangerously under

2159
02:02:18.800 --> 02:02:24.960
<v Speaker 2>the cinemat for any reason, um the nineteen eighty four film.

2160
02:02:24.960 --> 02:02:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Can we say that that's Paul Hammerson's character and just

2161
02:02:27.399 --> 02:02:30.319
<v Speaker 2>go with it. No. I don't know if he's ever

2162
02:02:30.319 --> 02:02:32.199
<v Speaker 2>admitted that or not. That's the problem. No, But if

2163
02:02:32.199 --> 02:02:33.680
<v Speaker 2>you took the if you took the name from that,

2164
02:02:33.880 --> 02:02:36.520
<v Speaker 2>I would I would I would qualify that. Joseph nubauerd

2165
02:02:36.520 --> 02:02:38.399
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much for the pledge. We appreciate it.

2166
02:02:38.399 --> 02:02:41.079
<v Speaker 2>Same to you, Robert Fenton. Welcome to the executive producer.

2167
02:02:41.119 --> 02:02:43.319
<v Speaker 2>To your colin, ask for killing it's a prit k

2168
02:02:43.399 --> 02:02:46.159
<v Speaker 2>fabe last name, Thanks very much. Brie writes, the Rick

2169
02:02:46.239 --> 02:02:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Rude in a cage thing kind of happened. We were

2170
02:02:47.800 --> 02:02:50.439
<v Speaker 2>wondering when going through Sabu's career. There was this listening

2171
02:02:50.439 --> 02:02:52.680
<v Speaker 2>of an ECW match Rick Rud was wrestling in a cage,

2172
02:02:52.680 --> 02:02:54.520
<v Speaker 2>and I just thought that was a mistake, because if

2173
02:02:54.600 --> 02:02:56.560
<v Speaker 2>Rick Rude had a match in ECW, I would remember,

2174
02:02:56.720 --> 02:02:58.720
<v Speaker 2>and it was technically a match. He was in there,

2175
02:02:58.760 --> 02:03:02.239
<v Speaker 2>as I remarked on X, dressed like the cameraman at

2176
02:03:02.279 --> 02:03:05.279
<v Speaker 2>a local TV station, and he had jeans and a

2177
02:03:05.319 --> 02:03:09.039
<v Speaker 2>sweatshirt tucked in with sneakers, and he just, Okay, if

2178
02:03:09.119 --> 02:03:10.840
<v Speaker 2>that's a match, it's just as much a match as

2179
02:03:10.880 --> 02:03:13.079
<v Speaker 2>Hulkogan's last match that we just talked about in the UK.

2180
02:03:13.520 --> 02:03:14.479
<v Speaker 3>But I guess you're right.

2181
02:03:14.520 --> 02:03:16.640
<v Speaker 2>I guess I now know where that comes from, the match,

2182
02:03:16.720 --> 02:03:19.319
<v Speaker 2>he writes with Sabo Arvidivus, Dreamer, Sandman and Rude turned

2183
02:03:19.359 --> 02:03:22.119
<v Speaker 2>on Dreamer and Sandman during the match. So we like

2184
02:03:22.159 --> 02:03:24.119
<v Speaker 2>to tie up loose ends on these feedback episodes if

2185
02:03:24.119 --> 02:03:26.279
<v Speaker 2>we can based on the episodes I've come before, so

2186
02:03:26.399 --> 02:03:29.600
<v Speaker 2>consider that one done. Wiretap eight oh four. Thanks for

2187
02:03:29.640 --> 02:03:32.319
<v Speaker 2>the cake, my friend Ross Mueller. We appreciate your support

2188
02:03:32.399 --> 02:03:35.279
<v Speaker 2>as well. Tim writs is someone who actually fixes broken jaws.

2189
02:03:35.439 --> 02:03:37.920
<v Speaker 2>The whole section from Saboo's book about the jaw fracture

2190
02:03:38.039 --> 02:03:40.920
<v Speaker 2>is the most horrifying thing I have ever heard. Absolutely

2191
02:03:41.439 --> 02:03:43.960
<v Speaker 2>not shocked in the least that he refractured it. Yes,

2192
02:03:44.039 --> 02:03:46.800
<v Speaker 2>we must not only consider the fractures of Saboo, boss,

2193
02:03:46.800 --> 02:03:50.159
<v Speaker 2>but the refractures terable toys. We know he means business,

2194
02:03:50.159 --> 02:03:52.119
<v Speaker 2>and he's putting that cake on the table, and we appreciate.

2195
02:03:52.159 --> 02:03:56.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, we talked about Taz going to youth sports

2196
02:03:56.399 --> 02:04:00.479
<v Speaker 2>in Jersey with a vest on and criticizing thes and

2197
02:04:00.520 --> 02:04:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the referees, and Gino, who's from the area, who I

2198
02:04:03.920 --> 02:04:05.920
<v Speaker 2>think we're going to see in New York, actually says

2199
02:04:05.960 --> 02:04:07.960
<v Speaker 2>I've witnessed grown men yelling at a high school kid

2200
02:04:07.960 --> 02:04:14.720
<v Speaker 2>ref because they weren't calling traveling in kindergarten age basketball. Taz,

2201
02:04:14.800 --> 02:04:18.119
<v Speaker 2>this conversation about youth sports is exactly my weekend conversation

2202
02:04:18.239 --> 02:04:20.399
<v Speaker 2>with my Jersey accent to Boot. We love it so

2203
02:04:20.520 --> 02:04:23.720
<v Speaker 2>much that we're on point like that. Bob Ross, thanks

2204
02:04:23.720 --> 02:04:25.880
<v Speaker 2>for the increase in pledge, my friend, we see you.

2205
02:04:26.319 --> 02:04:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Mike Wright. Shane Douglas was in WCW by summer ninety nine. Yes,

2206
02:04:29.319 --> 02:04:31.800
<v Speaker 2>we did get this twisted. We forgot. I forgot. I

2207
02:04:31.840 --> 02:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>thought he came in when Russo and Bischoff combined in

2208
02:04:34.119 --> 02:04:36.199
<v Speaker 2>two thousand, but he was already in the company because

2209
02:04:36.199 --> 02:04:38.840
<v Speaker 2>he had did all the revolution Stable stuff with Ben

2210
02:04:38.880 --> 02:04:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Juan Malinko and all that in ninety nine as well,

2211
02:04:41.560 --> 02:04:43.720
<v Speaker 2>and he was rumored to go over with them in

2212
02:04:43.760 --> 02:04:47.640
<v Speaker 2>two thousand. Him and Conan were part of the group

2213
02:04:47.720 --> 02:04:50.199
<v Speaker 2>that was said to be looking for their release to

2214
02:04:50.239 --> 02:04:53.600
<v Speaker 2>go with the radicals. So thanks for that reminder there,

2215
02:04:54.239 --> 02:04:56.439
<v Speaker 2>Robbie O'Sullivan, thank you very much for your pledge. Welcome

2216

<v Speaker 2>to the executive producer teer Anonymous, whoever you may be.

<v Speaker 2>Thanks for the cake. Marty f Thank you very much

<v Speaker 2>for your increase. Wayne Tyner. We appreciate the love and

2220
02:05:07.760 --> 02:05:10.319
<v Speaker 2>want to thank you very much. Boss Carl's writing in

2221
02:05:10.359 --> 02:05:12.880
<v Speaker 2>from Cape Town. We're going in a nationalis one damn

2222
02:05:12.960 --> 02:05:21.039
<v Speaker 2>right A Nambia, Namibia, whatever, infinitia Afghanistan. It's all here,

2223
02:05:21.600 --> 02:05:24.800
<v Speaker 2>this is from Cape Town. All right, here we go,

2224
02:05:25.840 --> 02:05:26.560
<v Speaker 2>dear coach chairs.

2225
02:05:26.600 --> 02:05:28.319
<v Speaker 3>I was delighted to see you tackle the history and

2226
02:05:28.439 --> 02:05:31.359
<v Speaker 3>legacy of Sabu and thought it was the perfect time

2227
02:05:31.399 --> 02:05:33.680
<v Speaker 3>to share my Sabu story as a wrestling fan in

2228
02:05:33.720 --> 02:05:38.479
<v Speaker 3>South Africa. Yes, as you understand wrestling. Watching wrestling at

2229
02:05:38.479 --> 02:05:42.399
<v Speaker 3>a precocious age is an addiction, a necessity. I gobbled

2230
02:05:42.479 --> 02:05:45.479
<v Speaker 3>up whatever I could find, even though it was only WWE.

2231
02:05:46.000 --> 02:05:50.600
<v Speaker 3>We had no WCW or ECW, and WWE pay per

2232
02:05:50.680 --> 02:05:53.920
<v Speaker 3>views aired seemingly at random. Shout out to my mom

2233
02:05:53.960 --> 02:05:56.439
<v Speaker 3>for taping the ninety seven Royal Rumble at six am midweek.

2234
02:05:57.119 --> 02:05:59.279
<v Speaker 3>We didn't get the after mags. My only source of

2235
02:05:59.319 --> 02:06:03.800
<v Speaker 3>information was WWE produced magazines, which arrived here several months

2236
02:06:03.800 --> 02:06:09.439
<v Speaker 3>after publishing Stateside. I was essentially blind. I recall Brett

2237
02:06:09.439 --> 02:06:13.159
<v Speaker 3>Hart just vanishing off TV. Same with Diesel and Razor.

2238
02:06:13.640 --> 02:06:16.600
<v Speaker 3>We I had no closure. I took what I could

2239
02:06:16.640 --> 02:06:20.279
<v Speaker 3>get and was grateful. ECW was a forbidden fruit that

2240
02:06:20.359 --> 02:06:25.640
<v Speaker 3>only existed in my imagination. In the early two thousands,

2241
02:06:26.399 --> 02:06:29.640
<v Speaker 3>I got regular access to the Internet, finally, a means

2242
02:06:29.680 --> 02:06:32.840
<v Speaker 3>to find the real hardcore wrestling with stuff that was

2243
02:06:32.840 --> 02:06:36.880
<v Speaker 3>too hot for our televisions. I recall vividly coming across

2244
02:06:36.960 --> 02:06:41.279
<v Speaker 3>an article describing the Born to Be Wired match, no video,

2245
02:06:41.880 --> 02:06:45.039
<v Speaker 3>only black and white photos. I was astonished. TLC at

2246
02:06:45.039 --> 02:06:47.800
<v Speaker 3>WRESTLINGA seventeen was my favorite match at that time, and

2247
02:06:47.840 --> 02:06:50.119
<v Speaker 3>this was a different and this was a different level.

2248
02:06:51.039 --> 02:06:53.640
<v Speaker 3>Who is sap Woo? How can you tip up a

2249
02:06:53.680 --> 02:06:56.039
<v Speaker 3>bicep and completely and complete a match?

2250
02:06:56.119 --> 02:06:56.319
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

2251
02:06:56.760 --> 02:06:59.840
<v Speaker 3>What the fuck is going on? I had so many

2252
02:07:00.039 --> 02:07:06.319
<v Speaker 3>questions with little means to answer them. I discovered file

2253
02:07:06.399 --> 02:07:10.800
<v Speaker 3>sharing and I needed extreme grappling. I can say with

2254
02:07:10.840 --> 02:07:12.880
<v Speaker 3>my hand on my heart, I spent more time looking

2255
02:07:13.239 --> 02:07:17.520
<v Speaker 3>for anything of Saboo than I did pornography. The point

2256
02:07:17.560 --> 02:07:21.159
<v Speaker 3>to the heavens, the mystique, the scars, by God, the scars.

2257
02:07:22.359 --> 02:07:25.560
<v Speaker 3>Who is this person? I still think he's one of

2258
02:07:25.600 --> 02:07:29.199
<v Speaker 3>the coolest wrestlers I've ever seen. His entire presentation was perfect.

2259
02:07:29.239 --> 02:07:31.600
<v Speaker 3>Fast forward to One Nightstand two thousand and five. I

2260
02:07:31.640 --> 02:07:36.600
<v Speaker 3>was eighteen and mesmerized with my first proper experience with ECW.

2261
02:07:39.119 --> 02:07:42.039
<v Speaker 3>I don't know about proper. Yeah, I know it's but

2262
02:07:42.439 --> 02:07:45.119
<v Speaker 3>it's the closest he got though. Yeah, it was actually

2263
02:07:45.119 --> 02:07:48.680
<v Speaker 3>a pretty faithful recreation of it. All the crowd, the

2264
02:07:48.720 --> 02:07:51.640
<v Speaker 3>Hayman promo, the violence. It was like discovering a new color.

2265
02:07:52.279 --> 02:07:54.279
<v Speaker 3>I'd never seen anything like it, and it was the

2266
02:07:54.279 --> 02:07:58.199
<v Speaker 3>first time I'd ever seen Sabu in motion. To this day,

2267
02:07:58.239 --> 02:08:01.800
<v Speaker 3>his quote style still tuxes me. The way he moved,

2268
02:08:01.800 --> 02:08:06.119
<v Speaker 3>the recklessness, the relentlessness. He had this single minded determination

2269
02:08:06.199 --> 02:08:08.239
<v Speaker 3>to hurt his opponent with his own body. Either you

2270
02:08:08.359 --> 02:08:12.960
<v Speaker 3>crumble to the mat or he does, and he is

2271
02:08:13.000 --> 02:08:19.319
<v Speaker 3>seemingly fine with either outcome. Homicidal, suicidal, genocidal perfectly captured

2272
02:08:19.800 --> 02:08:23.960
<v Speaker 3>his look and approach to wrestling. Even now, as I

2273
02:08:24.000 --> 02:08:27.960
<v Speaker 3>try to logically figure out what about Sabou captured my

2274
02:08:28.039 --> 02:08:31.760
<v Speaker 3>imagination so completely, I realize that it's much simpler than

2275
02:08:31.800 --> 02:08:34.399
<v Speaker 3>work rate or table spots or a cool entrance. I

2276
02:08:34.479 --> 02:08:43.439
<v Speaker 3>believe Sabo. I believed Sabo was real, real in the

2277
02:08:43.439 --> 02:08:46.479
<v Speaker 3>same way James Gandalfini and The Sopranos was real. This

2278
02:08:46.600 --> 02:08:50.279
<v Speaker 3>character only exists in this world on my television, and

2279
02:08:50.319 --> 02:08:53.079
<v Speaker 3>they are holy and completely committed to their world in

2280
02:08:53.119 --> 02:08:57.199
<v Speaker 3>a way that makes only sense to them. I cannot

2281
02:08:57.199 --> 02:08:59.600
<v Speaker 3>meet Sabu at a grocery store or on the train.

2282
02:09:00.880 --> 02:09:03.239
<v Speaker 3>He doesn't exist in my world as a person. He

2283
02:09:03.279 --> 02:09:05.239
<v Speaker 3>doesn't feel like I do, or hurt like I do,

2284
02:09:05.479 --> 02:09:08.560
<v Speaker 3>or have any of the same needs. He is Saboo,

2285
02:09:09.279 --> 02:09:11.640
<v Speaker 3>and he has committed to his interpretation of professional wrestling

2286
02:09:11.680 --> 02:09:15.600
<v Speaker 3>at the expense of everything and how he expresses himself

2287
02:09:15.640 --> 02:09:19.319
<v Speaker 3>in a match, even if it kills him in the

2288
02:09:19.319 --> 02:09:27.199
<v Speaker 3>wrestling industry. As the wrestling industry becomes more meta, wow,

2289
02:09:27.399 --> 02:09:30.359
<v Speaker 3>merta wow, isn't that the truth? Brother?

2290
02:09:30.479 --> 02:09:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Brother?

2291
02:09:30.880 --> 02:09:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Brother? Self referential and filled with shoot interviews and quote,

2292
02:09:36.319 --> 02:09:39.640
<v Speaker 3>here was what really happened. I yearned to allow myself

2293
02:09:39.720 --> 02:09:42.199
<v Speaker 3>to simply believe in the grappling without feeling like a

2294
02:09:42.359 --> 02:09:47.319
<v Speaker 3>fucking idiot. Yep, Sabu was one of the very few

2295
02:09:47.359 --> 02:09:50.439
<v Speaker 3>wrestlers where that was possible. Perhaps Terry Bronk was a

2296
02:09:50.479 --> 02:09:53.840
<v Speaker 3>casualty of this. Perhaps Terry Bronk should have never, never,

2297
02:09:54.119 --> 02:09:57.000
<v Speaker 3>should never have committed to his journey of self destruction.

2298
02:09:57.119 --> 02:10:01.159
<v Speaker 3>But he did, and the least I can do to

2299
02:10:01.279 --> 02:10:04.159
<v Speaker 3>honor it is be grateful for his commitment to his art.

2300
02:10:04.880 --> 02:10:10.399
<v Speaker 3>His art is sometimes revolting, but it's distinct. His performance

2301
02:10:10.399 --> 02:10:12.000
<v Speaker 3>at One night Stand in two thousand and five is

2302
02:10:12.119 --> 02:10:14.520
<v Speaker 3>very average. But I eventually got to heat Wave ninety

2303
02:10:14.560 --> 02:10:20.680
<v Speaker 3>eight in his tag with RVD against Gensation, Saki and Hyabusa.

2304
02:10:21.239 --> 02:10:25.720
<v Speaker 3>Sure whatever, Yeah, that's what I was former Hakushi Hayabusa

2305
02:10:25.880 --> 02:10:29.640
<v Speaker 3>and yeah shin Shinzaki. That was the first time where

2306
02:10:29.640 --> 02:10:32.039
<v Speaker 3>the character who captured my imagination from a young age

2307
02:10:32.039 --> 02:10:35.319
<v Speaker 3>and the person. That was the time where the character

2308
02:10:35.399 --> 02:10:37.520
<v Speaker 3>who captured my imagination from a young age and the

2309
02:10:37.520 --> 02:10:42.399
<v Speaker 3>person I'm watching on my television met on equal terms.

2310
02:10:42.960 --> 02:10:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Thanks for reading, Carl from Cape Town.

2311
02:10:45.720 --> 02:10:48.119
<v Speaker 2>It's stuff, man, that's a good email. That's kind of

2312
02:10:48.119 --> 02:10:50.960
<v Speaker 2>one I wish we tucked into the tribute itself. But yeah,

2313
02:10:51.000 --> 02:10:53.560
<v Speaker 2>we always say if you love a show, listen to

2314
02:10:53.560 --> 02:10:56.319
<v Speaker 2>the mailbag after it or a feedback segment after it,

2315
02:10:56.359 --> 02:10:58.880
<v Speaker 2>because there's a lot of wonderful follow on from the

2316
02:10:58.880 --> 02:11:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Solar System, a lot of important clarifications of things we

2317
02:11:01.600 --> 02:11:04.439
<v Speaker 2>may have gotten wrong or not exactly right, and it

2318
02:11:04.520 --> 02:11:09.039
<v Speaker 2>just keeps going, it just keeps evolving. Thank you, Nick Russ,

2319
02:11:09.079 --> 02:11:11.119
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much for your pledge, and welcome to

2320
02:11:11.119 --> 02:11:13.479
<v Speaker 2>the executive producer t Here Joe writes to us from

2321
02:11:13.520 --> 02:11:16.439
<v Speaker 2>suburban Chicago. So listening to the memorial tour for the

2322
02:11:16.479 --> 02:11:19.079
<v Speaker 2>second time can confirm that as of May twenty nine,

2323
02:11:19.159 --> 02:11:22.079
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty five, at three thirty Central Standard time, Nikita

2324
02:11:22.159 --> 02:11:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Kuloff's wang is still visible on Peacock version of Blade Kate.

2325
02:11:26.199 --> 02:11:28.520
<v Speaker 2>You might recall his dick comes out of his pants.

2326
02:11:28.720 --> 02:11:31.359
<v Speaker 2>They put the cock in Peacock's right ten years after

2327
02:11:31.439 --> 02:11:34.000
<v Speaker 2>JP first made mention, twenty four years after the table

2328
02:11:34.039 --> 02:11:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Library was purchased, in thirty nine years after original airing.

2329
02:11:36.800 --> 02:11:40.439
<v Speaker 2>How is that possible? Well, there it is, Boss.

2330
02:11:40.399 --> 02:11:44.079
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I like I enjoy having a little uh Easter

2331
02:11:44.159 --> 02:11:49.920
<v Speaker 3>egg out there for people to enjoy and indulge in

2332
02:11:49.920 --> 02:11:53.199
<v Speaker 3>indulge in another man's genitalia.

2333
02:11:53.840 --> 02:11:56.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to share this link with you later. Don't forget,

2334
02:11:58.000 --> 02:12:01.119
<v Speaker 2>but the homie Pedro and Lisbon wants us to know

2335
02:12:01.840 --> 02:12:04.159
<v Speaker 2>his first time writing to us, big fan from Portugal

2336
02:12:04.760 --> 02:12:10.039
<v Speaker 2>of a cultaholic article. Okay, he found this and immediately

2337
02:12:10.039 --> 02:12:12.319
<v Speaker 2>thought we should know about this if we don't know

2338
02:12:12.359 --> 02:12:16.319
<v Speaker 2>about it already. It's a wrestler who had gone missing,

2339
02:12:16.399 --> 02:12:19.479
<v Speaker 2>whose human marine remains were found very recently.

2340
02:12:20.640 --> 02:12:23.640
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, I I I've saved that article.

2341
02:12:23.680 --> 02:12:25.640
<v Speaker 2>He was an actor and wasn't Twilight of the Gods

2343
02:12:31.960 --> 02:12:34.520
<v Speaker 2>I've I actually already did that kind of a brief

2344
02:12:34.640 --> 02:12:35.920
<v Speaker 2>little true crime around here.

2345
02:12:36.000 --> 02:12:37.600
<v Speaker 3>Kim. Oh yeah, we love that.

2346
02:12:38.960 --> 02:12:42.279
<v Speaker 2>God, thank God for under the Cinema. We love that ship.

2347
02:12:42.520 --> 02:12:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Everything's fair game. Oh, Matthew KEI.

2348
02:12:45.159 --> 02:12:46.640
<v Speaker 3>A whole fucking.

2349
02:12:48.199 --> 02:12:48.239
<v Speaker 1>That.

2350
02:12:48.760 --> 02:12:51.760
<v Speaker 3>See that that again that it's these it's these guys

2351
02:12:51.760 --> 02:12:55.760
<v Speaker 3>who I find the most fascinating, These people who had

2352
02:12:55.800 --> 02:12:59.520
<v Speaker 3>these careers and and this guy being fucking buried and

2353
02:12:59.760 --> 02:13:03.239
<v Speaker 3>just that ah, tremendous.

2354
02:13:04.439 --> 02:13:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Having just like this fleeting connection to wrestling makes it

2355
02:13:06.840 --> 02:13:07.800
<v Speaker 2>even more intriguing.

2356
02:13:07.960 --> 02:13:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Yep, exactly.

2357
02:13:10.319 --> 02:13:12.239
<v Speaker 2>There was a speaking of Rock Hudson. He kind of

2358
02:13:12.319 --> 02:13:16.119
<v Speaker 2>qualifies for a few reasons, one of which is the

2359
02:13:16.560 --> 02:13:20.000
<v Speaker 2>next TA character by the name of Death we Live

2360
02:13:20.079 --> 02:13:26.399
<v Speaker 2>is Duke Hudson, right next T I think, so let's see, Yeah,

2361
02:13:27.079 --> 02:13:31.319
<v Speaker 2>he's definitely a Rock Hudson kind of inspirationally inspired character. Yeah, okay,

2362
02:13:31.319 --> 02:13:33.840
<v Speaker 2>I've always thought that's where his name came from. Uh,

2363
02:13:33.880 --> 02:13:36.600
<v Speaker 2>And they combined it with the Duke James Dean, right,

2364
02:13:36.880 --> 02:13:42.279
<v Speaker 2>they call John Wayne John Wayne. Sorry. Yeah, Bethew Key,

2365
02:13:42.279 --> 02:13:44.840
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much for increasing your pledge. We appreciate it.

2366
02:13:44.920 --> 02:13:47.319
<v Speaker 2>Christopher zell Er, thank you. For the cake. We uh,

2367
02:13:47.920 --> 02:13:50.439
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna put that to good use. Adam from Jersey City, dear,

2368
02:13:50.479 --> 02:13:52.760
<v Speaker 2>co chairman of the number one college podcast in the

2369
02:13:52.800 --> 02:13:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Solar System. I'm going back to the journeys who've authored

2370
02:13:55.199 --> 02:13:57.479
<v Speaker 2>over the years hashtag shelf life and found a true

2371
02:13:57.520 --> 02:14:00.560
<v Speaker 2>magic eight ball fuck skull moment on the memorial. At

2372
02:14:00.560 --> 02:14:02.439
<v Speaker 2>three fifty four to fifty four of the star K

2373
02:14:02.520 --> 02:14:05.439
<v Speaker 2>eighty nine Deep Dive, Jack and JP are talking about

2374
02:14:05.560 --> 02:14:09.359
<v Speaker 2>crooked referee numb Nick dumfuck Patrick and compare his blown

2375
02:14:09.399 --> 02:14:12.600
<v Speaker 2>call to a scene from Naked Gun. Boss then proceeds

2376
02:14:12.640 --> 02:14:16.079
<v Speaker 2>to say, we want to see a new Naked Gun

2377
02:14:16.159 --> 02:14:21.399
<v Speaker 2>starring Liam Neeson. Last four nine years and there's going

2378
02:14:21.439 --> 02:14:24.119
<v Speaker 2>to be a new Naked Gun with Cody Roads in it.

2379
02:14:24.159 --> 02:14:27.800
<v Speaker 2>No less right? Is it? Believe he's in it? Yes? Wow,

2380
02:14:27.920 --> 02:14:31.159
<v Speaker 2>that's funny starring Liam Neeson. Holy shit, Boss, you did

2381
02:14:31.159 --> 02:14:34.279
<v Speaker 2>it again, he writes, coming out this Friday. That's right,

2382
02:14:34.359 --> 02:14:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Yet were not? How funny that we read this email

2383
02:14:36.880 --> 02:14:39.880
<v Speaker 2>on the precipice. Yep, it even qualifies for under the

2384
02:14:39.880 --> 02:14:43.000
<v Speaker 2>cinemat since it features Cody Rhads. He writes. Anyway, I'm

2385
02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:45.119
<v Speaker 2>a long time LABS fan, have been following Jack since

2386
02:14:45.119 --> 02:14:48.079
<v Speaker 2>the shirt dog days remembered Haam TJ and Luffey, the

2387
02:14:48.079 --> 02:14:50.800
<v Speaker 2>triangle choke of MMA Radio. Even remember the origin of

2388
02:14:50.800 --> 02:14:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Brandon from New Jersey? Hey, Jack, do you remember Sean mccorky, Oh,

2389
02:14:53.560 --> 02:14:58.720
<v Speaker 2>I do? I remember that crazy word Smith from Indiana.

2390
02:15:00.239 --> 02:15:03.119
<v Speaker 2>Hilarious and one of the funniest fighters ever. Thank you

2391
02:15:03.239 --> 02:15:05.880
<v Speaker 2>for the years upon years of entertainment. Well, thank you, Adam.

2392
02:15:05.960 --> 02:15:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Great to hear from you. Well, anyone with a name McCorkle. Oh, yeah,

2393
02:15:09.039 --> 02:15:12.199
<v Speaker 2>that's great. Still automatic right there, Joe's still on these

2394
02:15:12.199 --> 02:15:14.680
<v Speaker 2>old ones. Yeah, he writes, you've infiltrated my life. Morning

2395
02:15:14.680 --> 02:15:16.399
<v Speaker 2>till night. I had to take the five to fifty

2396
02:15:16.439 --> 02:15:20.239
<v Speaker 2>am train for world famous Schomberg through suburban Chicago, Rosemont,

2397
02:15:20.319 --> 02:15:22.399
<v Speaker 2>and finally arriving in the city. I'm fairly certain Jim

2398
02:15:22.439 --> 02:15:26.079
<v Speaker 2>Barnett developed all his classy habits in downtown Chicago. Listening

2399
02:15:26.119 --> 02:15:29.039
<v Speaker 2>to the star K e eighty five cast for the

2400
02:15:29.079 --> 02:15:31.600
<v Speaker 2>fourth time, as I was crossing the river on Madison Street,

2401
02:15:31.640 --> 02:15:33.640
<v Speaker 2>the street made famous by the United Center because of

2402
02:15:33.680 --> 02:15:36.479
<v Speaker 2>Brett Nowen in a cage and maybe some basketball player

2403
02:15:36.520 --> 02:15:39.039
<v Speaker 2>from Flair Country, I came to a random comment regarding

2404
02:15:39.039 --> 02:15:40.960
<v Speaker 2>a weird Jake Roberts he caught on bray Wyatt in

2405
02:15:40.960 --> 02:15:44.600
<v Speaker 2>twenty fifteen something about a condom and a sleep apney mask. Anyways,

2406
02:15:44.800 --> 02:15:47.359
<v Speaker 2>not the story. After JP moves on from the bizarre

2407
02:15:47.399 --> 02:15:50.159
<v Speaker 2>moment from the dark poet Laureate from Stone Mountain, I

2408
02:15:50.199 --> 02:15:52.479
<v Speaker 2>simply parsed my lips as if my mouth was dry,

2409
02:15:52.560 --> 02:15:55.119
<v Speaker 2>about to start a promo as an unconscious nod to

2410
02:15:55.199 --> 02:16:00.239
<v Speaker 2>Jake's teeth. Thanks JP for the amazing discovery. Well come

2411
02:16:00.239 --> 02:16:02.479
<v Speaker 2>to you for your quick Chicago wrestling primer that you

2412
02:16:02.479 --> 02:16:05.680
<v Speaker 2>didn't ask for. Thank you for giving me what I need. Yeah,

2413
02:16:05.720 --> 02:16:09.319
<v Speaker 2>not a problem. Joe Martin, great supporter out there. I

2414
02:16:09.319 --> 02:16:11.880
<v Speaker 2>believe in Scotland. He says he loves anytime the co

2415
02:16:12.000 --> 02:16:14.760
<v Speaker 2>chairs talk about Shit's Creek and Catherine O'Hara in general.

2416
02:16:18.319 --> 02:16:21.680
<v Speaker 2>And uh, he wants he wants every Johnson a live call,

2417
02:16:21.880 --> 02:16:24.439
<v Speaker 2>every Johnson imagine to a retirement on live call. And

2418
02:16:24.479 --> 02:16:26.800
<v Speaker 2>we're doing it. I mean, I don't think we're gonna

2419
02:16:26.800 --> 02:16:27.439
<v Speaker 2>miss one of them.

2420
02:16:27.560 --> 02:16:28.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah no, I don't think so.

2421
02:16:29.279 --> 02:16:31.079
<v Speaker 2>William Wrights. I think they should have Otis be the

2422
02:16:31.119 --> 02:16:34.559
<v Speaker 2>spokesperson for Dude Wipes. Just some fat sweaty, hairy guy

2423
02:16:34.600 --> 02:16:37.719
<v Speaker 2>who you'd know has poor anal hygiene.

2424
02:16:37.239 --> 02:16:40.520
<v Speaker 3>May it like close ups of the of the hairs

2425
02:16:40.520 --> 02:16:42.959
<v Speaker 3>in his ass that are caught all all the ship

2426
02:16:43.159 --> 02:16:47.440
<v Speaker 3>and like all sorts of dirt and just vile things

2427
02:16:47.520 --> 02:16:51.639
<v Speaker 3>like the worst, the worst substances on the planet are

2428
02:16:51.719 --> 02:16:54.200
<v Speaker 3>just caked on the hairs in his ass.

2429
02:16:55.399 --> 02:17:02.959
<v Speaker 2>They look they look all matted down even in his underwear. Horrible,

2430
02:17:03.479 --> 02:17:06.520
<v Speaker 2>just like you know, like layers of stuff oh on

2431
02:17:07.120 --> 02:17:12.079
<v Speaker 2>those fucking asshairs. Doctor Templar from New Zealand, Uh, we're

2432
02:17:12.159 --> 02:17:16.120
<v Speaker 2>sticking with international dear co chairs. He provides a helpful

2433
02:17:16.159 --> 02:17:18.719
<v Speaker 2>summary with three bullet points. One thanks for everything you do.

2434
02:17:18.760 --> 02:17:20.639
<v Speaker 2>It makes my life better too. Thank you to the

2435
02:17:20.639 --> 02:17:23.079
<v Speaker 2>Mote tier members. We the three sixteen tiers salute your

2436
02:17:23.120 --> 02:17:28.520
<v Speaker 2>magnificent contributions. That's the spirit, that's the spirit. Don't hate, appreciate,

2437
02:17:29.159 --> 02:17:31.799
<v Speaker 2>Realize that while it might not make sense for you

2438
02:17:31.879 --> 02:17:35.079
<v Speaker 2>to pledge in that denomination, that you're eternally grateful that

2439
02:17:35.159 --> 02:17:37.879
<v Speaker 2>others do because it provides us the fuel we need

2440
02:17:37.920 --> 02:17:39.879
<v Speaker 2>to keep producing. And even if you don't get to

2441
02:17:39.920 --> 02:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>access at all, be grateful that something keeps making us

2442
02:17:43.760 --> 02:17:46.239
<v Speaker 2>want to do this because when we stop wanting to

2443
02:17:46.239 --> 02:17:49.639
<v Speaker 2>do this, you are left in the wilderness. My friend,

2444
02:17:51.079 --> 02:17:53.399
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what to tell you, because the cast

2445
02:17:53.479 --> 02:17:57.120
<v Speaker 2>is a powerful force, and it's a virtuous cycle and

2446
02:17:58.159 --> 02:18:01.040
<v Speaker 2>the only reason we have subjected our ourselves to the

2447
02:18:01.079 --> 02:18:04.959
<v Speaker 2>aforementioned sleep deprivation and other sacrifices it takes to do

2448
02:18:05.000 --> 02:18:06.840
<v Speaker 2>the show like we do it. It's because we know

2449
02:18:07.360 --> 02:18:09.520
<v Speaker 2>that you're going to put money on the table to

2450
02:18:09.600 --> 02:18:12.280
<v Speaker 2>say that it's worth it. That's proof. That's proof of

2451
02:18:12.319 --> 02:18:15.479
<v Speaker 2>any society. Two, thank you to the mote your members.

2452
02:18:15.520 --> 02:18:17.479
<v Speaker 2>Three if you were free loading, step up. It brings

2453
02:18:17.479 --> 02:18:19.399
<v Speaker 2>a sense of self worth that feels good every week.

2454
02:18:19.479 --> 02:18:22.399
<v Speaker 2>My man, he writes the long story, I'm a fifty

2455
02:18:22.479 --> 02:18:25.079
<v Speaker 2>eight year old got to be our oldest listener, fifty

2456
02:18:25.079 --> 02:18:27.639
<v Speaker 2>eight year old New Zealander wow, who first fell for

2457
02:18:27.639 --> 02:18:30.639
<v Speaker 2>wrestling in the mid seventies watching New Zealand's own on

2458
02:18:30.719 --> 02:18:32.920
<v Speaker 2>the mat. This would feature New Zealand hero such as

2459
02:18:33.000 --> 02:18:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Steve Recard, Samoan Joe with an n Yes Samoan Joe,

2460
02:18:36.920 --> 02:18:39.559
<v Speaker 2>and Mark Lewin taking on the likes of Robert the

2461
02:18:39.600 --> 02:18:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Bruce King, Curtis Ika and Don Morocco as part of

2462
02:18:42.120 --> 02:18:45.399
<v Speaker 2>the NWA their champions would also visit, none more feared

2463
02:18:45.399 --> 02:18:47.559
<v Speaker 2>than Hardly Race. Of course, my twin brother and I

2464
02:18:47.639 --> 02:18:50.479
<v Speaker 2>would spend hours practicing our wrestling every week when we

2465
02:18:50.479 --> 02:18:54.159
<v Speaker 2>weren't a brawling MMA style. In the eighties, the WWF arrived,

2466
02:18:54.319 --> 02:18:56.600
<v Speaker 2>wasn't on New Zealand TV, so we bought magazines and

2467
02:18:56.639 --> 02:18:59.440
<v Speaker 2>lived for rental videotapes. You can imagine the excitement of

2468
02:18:59.520 --> 02:19:02.360
<v Speaker 2>hiring wrestle Mania one, not knowing the results. Hiring that

2469
02:19:02.440 --> 02:19:07.079
<v Speaker 2>must be a key WE word for renting. Hiring like that.

2470
02:19:07.600 --> 02:19:10.479
<v Speaker 2>The pageantry, the size of the wrestlers and the arenas

2471
02:19:10.559 --> 02:19:13.959
<v Speaker 2>was a sight to behold. WWF was only available on PATV,

2472
02:19:14.040 --> 02:19:16.520
<v Speaker 2>but WCW was on free to air, so we watched

2473
02:19:16.520 --> 02:19:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Flair and Sting battle it out on random late night broadcasts.

2474
02:19:19.399 --> 02:19:21.319
<v Speaker 2>Over the years, I continue to be a fan, seeing

2475
02:19:21.399 --> 02:19:24.399
<v Speaker 2>WWF live in New Zealand Undertaker vers Angle versus Mark

2476
02:19:24.399 --> 02:19:27.280
<v Speaker 2>Henry main event, and also watching many independent shows seeing

2477
02:19:27.280 --> 02:19:29.520
<v Speaker 2>a very young Dakota Kai learned the ropes. I also

2478
02:19:29.520 --> 02:19:31.559
<v Speaker 2>passed the wrestling lore onto our son, who loved my

2479
02:19:31.600 --> 02:19:33.200
<v Speaker 2>old tapes and who at ten hit me with a

2480
02:19:33.200 --> 02:19:35.959
<v Speaker 2>flare chop so perfect that I had a handprint bruise

2481
02:19:36.000 --> 02:19:38.959
<v Speaker 2>for five days. These days, he's twenty five and a big, strong,

2482
02:19:39.000 --> 02:19:42.079
<v Speaker 2>lovely man. And when we me, my twin brother and

2483
02:19:42.159 --> 02:19:45.200
<v Speaker 2>son start to lapse. When our heroes faded Hogan Hart

2484
02:19:45.239 --> 02:19:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Michael's taker Flair, and when UFC arrived, instead of watching

2485
02:19:48.200 --> 02:19:50.680
<v Speaker 2>fake fights, we could watch real ones and they fought

2486
02:19:50.719 --> 02:19:53.399
<v Speaker 2>just like my brother and I did when we were kids.

2487
02:19:53.840 --> 02:19:56.879
<v Speaker 2>UFC led to Shirt Dog and TJ. My podcast addiction

2488
02:19:57.040 --> 02:19:59.000
<v Speaker 2>was born. I listened to all his Shirtdog shows and

2489
02:19:59.040 --> 02:20:00.799
<v Speaker 2>then backed him on Patreon on from day one for

2490
02:20:00.840 --> 02:20:03.600
<v Speaker 2>between rounds. When he stopped producing content, I contributed for

2491
02:20:03.600 --> 02:20:05.680
<v Speaker 2>a year to say thanks, then face the reality that

2492
02:20:05.719 --> 02:20:08.159
<v Speaker 2>I needed more, so I sampled TLF. At first, it

2493
02:20:08.159 --> 02:20:10.520
<v Speaker 2>was intimidating, a five to six hour podcast on a

2494
02:20:10.520 --> 02:20:12.879
<v Speaker 2>single event. What could they talk about for so long?

2495
02:20:13.360 --> 02:20:15.680
<v Speaker 2>But the research knowledge and sources and the boss's lore

2496
02:20:15.719 --> 02:20:18.159
<v Speaker 2>and impressions had me hooked. My wife noticed I was

2497
02:20:18.239 --> 02:20:21.600
<v Speaker 2>volunteering to do household chores. Hey, there's that thumbs up, motherfucker.

2498
02:20:21.879 --> 02:20:25.319
<v Speaker 2>There's that thumbs up, motherfucker. Yes, with a new enthusiasm

2499
02:20:25.360 --> 02:20:27.680
<v Speaker 2>as I listened to my weekly episodes, but I needed

2500
02:20:27.719 --> 02:20:30.319
<v Speaker 2>more and stopped being a freeloader. When you read my name,

2501
02:20:30.399 --> 02:20:32.680
<v Speaker 2>I punched the air with pride, pride that I was

2502
02:20:32.680 --> 02:20:35.600
<v Speaker 2>contributing in my own small way to something meaningful. So

2503
02:20:35.680 --> 02:20:37.719
<v Speaker 2>I worked my way through the back catalog, starting with

2504
02:20:37.719 --> 02:20:40.760
<v Speaker 2>the WrestleMania Journey, but the TLF Everest remained the trial

2505
02:20:40.799 --> 02:20:43.600
<v Speaker 2>of his life. I recently completed it and would suggest

2506
02:20:43.639 --> 02:20:46.920
<v Speaker 2>it should be preserved in the Smithsonian. It is an

2507
02:20:47.040 --> 02:20:49.959
<v Speaker 2>unmatched piece of journalism. So I wanted to write to

2508
02:20:50.000 --> 02:20:52.399
<v Speaker 2>thank you for all the work and all the joy

2509
02:20:52.559 --> 02:20:55.479
<v Speaker 2>you bring nekhon me. I think how you say it.

2510
02:20:55.520 --> 02:20:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Thanks Richard, well, thank you Richard. We're honored to have

2511
02:20:57.920 --> 02:20:59.799
<v Speaker 2>you as a listener. And thank you very much for

2512
02:20:59.840 --> 02:21:03.360
<v Speaker 2>the the vote of confidence. Christopher Queen, thank you very

2513
02:21:03.440 --> 02:21:05.680
<v Speaker 2>much for recently joining the Mote tier. That is a

2514
02:21:05.719 --> 02:21:08.239
<v Speaker 2>big time move from you. Stephen Jolly, thank you very much.

2515
02:21:08.239 --> 02:21:11.879
<v Speaker 2>We appreciate the support. We dropped spotlight on him, didn't we, Boss.

2516
02:21:11.840 --> 02:21:14.079
<v Speaker 3>Yes we did. We had to do it, Yes we did,

2517
02:21:14.399 --> 02:21:16.959
<v Speaker 3>and Scott was one of my one of my one

2518
02:21:16.959 --> 02:21:22.200
<v Speaker 3>of my crowning surprises. There are there there are a few,

2519
02:21:22.280 --> 02:21:27.680
<v Speaker 3>I would say I would say the the my favorites

2520
02:21:29.319 --> 02:21:35.159
<v Speaker 3>home alone. It's a wonderful Life, and spotlight. Wow, my

2521
02:21:35.360 --> 02:21:39.360
<v Speaker 3>three favorite surprises to drop on you. Electric, Yeah, truly

2522
02:21:39.399 --> 02:21:45.399
<v Speaker 3>electric Spotlight. I'm getting abused, he writes. That fucking cast

2523
02:21:45.440 --> 02:21:49.440
<v Speaker 3>has been to my ass for eight hours. He says,

2524
02:21:49.479 --> 02:21:54.360
<v Speaker 3>the spotlight. Yees, spotlight, it's win way. I'm getting abused

2525
02:21:55.319 --> 02:21:56.319
<v Speaker 3>right now.

2526
02:21:56.879 --> 02:22:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Right now. This might be your finest work yet, gentlemen,

2527
02:22:03.040 --> 02:22:06.440
<v Speaker 2>he writes, Absolutely tremendous stuff. I really enjoyed getting to

2528
02:22:06.479 --> 02:22:09.440
<v Speaker 2>hear not only that run in from Glenn Cain, but

2529
02:22:09.520 --> 02:22:11.799
<v Speaker 2>that insight from Jack as well. I think the most

2530
02:22:11.840 --> 02:22:14.680
<v Speaker 2>important thing here was realizing that Jack's journey has taken

2531
02:22:14.760 --> 02:22:16.719
<v Speaker 2>us from a burger in the room to a muffin

2532
02:22:16.719 --> 02:22:23.200
<v Speaker 2>in the bathroom. Forgot about that because it really is

2533
02:22:23.239 --> 02:22:24.280
<v Speaker 2>all about food.

2534
02:22:25.520 --> 02:22:26.680
<v Speaker 3>It is, that's for sure.

2535
02:22:26.719 --> 02:22:29.120
<v Speaker 2>The homie Ben Blake has a request, and I think

2536
02:22:29.120 --> 02:22:32.479
<v Speaker 2>it's your turn to dissatisfy it. Have you ever heard

2537
02:22:32.479 --> 02:22:35.479
<v Speaker 2>of the Doctor SEUs book Fox and Socks.

2538
02:22:35.159 --> 02:22:36.840
<v Speaker 3>H No, I have not.

2539
02:22:37.959 --> 02:22:42.479
<v Speaker 2>I just sent you a link. Okay's a copy of

2540
02:22:42.559 --> 02:22:43.719
<v Speaker 2>said children's classic.

2541

<v Speaker 3>Okay, Oh my god.

2542

<v Speaker 2>The simple request from an avid fan of for a

2543
02:22:48.200 --> 02:22:51.159
<v Speaker 2>long time who believes the show is second to none,

2544
02:22:52.319 --> 02:22:53.879
<v Speaker 2>even though he may be the only TLF fan in

2545
02:22:53.920 --> 02:22:56.520
<v Speaker 2>the world who doesn't care about wrestling. He wants the

2546
02:22:56.879 --> 02:22:59.440
<v Speaker 2>boss Man to do a great favor and to read

02:30:14.360 --> 02:30:16.840
<v Speaker 3>When they battle on a puddle, it's a tweetle beetle

2631
02:30:16.879 --> 02:30:20.959
<v Speaker 3>puddle battle. And when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in

2632
02:30:20.959 --> 02:30:24.040
<v Speaker 3>a puddle, they call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle.

2633
02:30:24.200 --> 02:30:30.680
<v Speaker 3>And that notwithstanding, when when beetles battle beetles in a

2634
02:30:30.719 --> 02:30:36.079
<v Speaker 3>puddle battle. When beetles battle beetles in a puddle paddle battle,

2635
02:30:36.520 --> 02:30:39.879
<v Speaker 3>and the beetle battle puddle is a puddle in a bottle,

2636
02:30:40.639 --> 02:30:45.760
<v Speaker 3>they call this a tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle.

2637
02:30:46.639 --> 02:30:51.600
<v Speaker 3>And when beetles fight those these battles in a bottle

2638
02:30:51.639 --> 02:30:54.680
<v Speaker 3>with their paddles and their bottles on a poodle and

2639
02:30:54.680 --> 02:30:58.000
<v Speaker 3>the poodles eating noodles, they call this a muddle puddle

2640
02:30:58.040 --> 02:31:04.600
<v Speaker 3>tweetle poodle, beetle noodle bottle paddle battle, right, obviously, And

2641
02:31:05.159 --> 02:31:11.200
<v Speaker 3>now wait a minute, mister socks fox, When a fox

2642
02:31:11.440 --> 02:31:14.040
<v Speaker 3>is in the bottle where the tweetle beetle battle with

2643
02:31:14.120 --> 02:31:16.879
<v Speaker 3>their paddles in a puddle on a noodle eating poodle,

2644
02:31:17.120 --> 02:31:20.280
<v Speaker 3>this is what they call a tweetle beetle noodle poodle

2645
02:31:20.559 --> 02:31:24.959
<v Speaker 3>bottled paddled, muddled, duddled, fuddled waddled Fox in socks, Sir,

2646
02:31:26.399 --> 02:31:29.559
<v Speaker 3>Fox and socks, our game is dumb, sir, Thank you

2647
02:31:29.600 --> 02:31:34.799
<v Speaker 3>for a lot of fun, sir. Now you're now is

2648
02:31:34.840 --> 02:31:38.600
<v Speaker 3>your tongue numb? The end?

2649
02:31:39.520 --> 02:31:46.600
<v Speaker 2>Wow? Wow, I was captivated fox and socks. I mean

2650
02:31:47.959 --> 02:31:48.920
<v Speaker 2>somewhere deep down.

2651
02:31:49.680 --> 02:31:53.680
<v Speaker 3>A fable by Doctor Seuss read by Vincent Kennedy McMahon.

2652
02:31:56.040 --> 02:31:58.440
<v Speaker 2>There's something ro co co about it. There's something very

2653
02:31:59.559 --> 02:32:04.760
<v Speaker 2>spirits consistent with Vince and what we Chris wants us

2654
02:32:04.799 --> 02:32:07.120
<v Speaker 2>to know. There is a phrase in soccer, if in doubt,

2655
02:32:07.200 --> 02:32:10.200
<v Speaker 2>kick it out. The wrestling equivalent is clearly if in doubt,

2656
02:32:10.760 --> 02:32:18.239
<v Speaker 2>hurt yourself. Adam, thank you very much for that executive

2657
02:32:18.280 --> 02:32:21.920
<v Speaker 2>producer level pledge. We appreciated Sam speaking of Saboo being

2658
02:32:21.959 --> 02:32:24.719
<v Speaker 2>generous and kind to younger wrestlers. I did Carney wrestler

2659
02:32:24.760 --> 02:32:26.520
<v Speaker 2>training for a couple of months in my youth. My

2660
02:32:26.600 --> 02:32:28.159
<v Speaker 2>trainer told us a story about having a match with

2661
02:32:28.159 --> 02:32:30.040
<v Speaker 2>Sabo in the nineties and Sabu called for a spot

2662
02:32:30.079 --> 02:32:32.079
<v Speaker 2>where he gives this guy a DDT off the top rope.

2663
02:32:32.239 --> 02:32:33.559
<v Speaker 2>The guy goes, yeah, but how the hell do you

2664
02:32:33.719 --> 02:32:35.479
<v Speaker 2>do that safely? I'm just gonna land in your chest

2665
02:32:35.479 --> 02:32:37.920
<v Speaker 2>off the top and Sabu says, just land on me.

2666
02:32:37.959 --> 02:32:40.559
<v Speaker 2>I'll take the impact. They do the spot and Sabu

2667
02:32:40.600 --> 02:32:42.600
<v Speaker 2>gets the wind knocked out of him. He didn't care.

2668
02:32:42.879 --> 02:32:45.079
<v Speaker 2>That was Saboo. I think it's actually a pretty good

2669
02:32:45.079 --> 02:32:49.319
<v Speaker 2>little salvation of the guy right there. Thanks for sharing.

2670
02:32:49.399 --> 02:32:51.479
<v Speaker 2>Dan Swartwoud thank you very much for your pledge. We

2671
02:32:51.520 --> 02:32:55.360
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Ryan writes, Lol, so JP really thought there

2672
02:32:55.399 --> 02:32:58.040
<v Speaker 2>was a possibility that Sabou was in that movie as

2673
02:32:58.079 --> 02:33:01.000
<v Speaker 2>a child and was already no as Saboo.

2674
02:33:01.559 --> 02:33:03.559
<v Speaker 3>Yes, there was like a split moment.

2675
02:33:03.719 --> 02:33:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, that's good ship pals, split moment, split moment,

2676
02:33:06.879 --> 02:33:09.719
<v Speaker 2>just confirming. Ronnie Cathy, thank you very much for the pledge, Matthew,

2677
02:33:10.000 --> 02:33:12.639
<v Speaker 2>he says, interviews with people like Glenn are just gold

2678
02:33:12.959 --> 02:33:16.120
<v Speaker 2>loved it. Yeah, what a triumph that was. He was

2679
02:33:16.159 --> 02:33:20.159
<v Speaker 2>great so many ways. Adam B, thank you very much

2680
02:33:20.159 --> 02:33:23.959
<v Speaker 2>for the pledge. We deeply appreciate the sport. Alex Ali

2681
02:33:24.120 --> 02:33:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Wrights Dear Jack and JP. On the Final Class of

2682
02:33:26.559 --> 02:33:29.040
<v Speaker 2>the Champions episode, you mentioned that many w W themes

2683
02:33:29.040 --> 02:33:31.440
<v Speaker 2>were royalty free tracks from the Turner music Library. I

2684
02:33:31.520 --> 02:33:33.360
<v Speaker 2>work as a director for pre and postgame shows at

2685
02:33:33.360 --> 02:33:35.879
<v Speaker 2>a regional sports network. Hey now, and I've actually come

2686
02:33:35.920 --> 02:33:38.120
<v Speaker 2>across a few of those themes in our music library.

2687
02:33:38.360 --> 02:33:40.360
<v Speaker 2>One of my favorites is a track called slow Death.

2688
02:33:40.399 --> 02:33:42.719
<v Speaker 2>It's perfect for hockey highlights, especially when there's a big

2689
02:33:42.760 --> 02:33:44.959
<v Speaker 2>hit or a fight. I've requested it so often that

2690
02:33:45.000 --> 02:33:47.159
<v Speaker 2>our audio operators know toe save it. For those types

2691
02:33:47.200 --> 02:33:50.120
<v Speaker 2>of highlights. The wrestler we used slow Death during his career,

2692
02:33:50.360 --> 02:33:54.280
<v Speaker 2>one of the Lapsolar System's favorite bitter bitches. Hardcore Holly

2693
02:33:54.639 --> 02:33:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Wow or a s JP might call him hardcore Hollins

2694
02:33:57.200 --> 02:33:59.840
<v Speaker 2>your pal Ali, right, that's true. That's huge that we

2695
02:33:59.920 --> 02:34:04.079
<v Speaker 2>know the actual name and kind of genesis of that hardcore.

2696
02:34:04.719 --> 02:34:07.360
<v Speaker 3>His name is called, his name is the song's name

2697
02:34:07.399 --> 02:34:11.840
<v Speaker 3>is slow Death. Yes, yes, it is hilarious, pretty wild.

2698
02:34:11.879 --> 02:34:12.360
<v Speaker 3>Thanks for that.

2699
02:34:12.360 --> 02:34:14.719
<v Speaker 2>That's a very helpful color because I have heard it.

2700
02:34:14.879 --> 02:34:17.079
<v Speaker 2>I've heard that song everywhere, not just in WWF.

2701
02:34:17.200 --> 02:34:21.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Well, remember we remember h the series finale of

2702
02:34:21.319 --> 02:34:23.959
<v Speaker 3>Hogan Knows Bad. Sure, yep, they play it when Hogan's

2703
02:34:24.040 --> 02:34:26.879
<v Speaker 3>driving up to see uh to see brook teeny.

2704
02:34:26.959 --> 02:34:29.280
<v Speaker 2>It's a great call. And they played it on Spike

2705
02:34:29.319 --> 02:34:31.360
<v Speaker 2>TV all the time when they would, like, you know,

2706
02:34:31.440 --> 02:34:33.239
<v Speaker 2>you finish watching one show and they would play a

2707
02:34:33.319 --> 02:34:35.760
<v Speaker 2>highlight for what's coming up or trailer for their in

2708
02:34:35.879 --> 02:34:36.440
<v Speaker 2>house stuff.

2709
02:34:39.520 --> 02:34:49.920
<v Speaker 3>But mom pun on mom doun on mom.

2710
02:34:49.440 --> 02:34:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Peg right, Lance heath Wall, thank you very much for

2711
02:34:53.840 --> 02:34:56.680
<v Speaker 2>your pledge. Welcome to the VIP tier. Luthernoli just went

2712
02:34:56.719 --> 02:34:58.120
<v Speaker 2>all the way up to that mote tier. That's a

2713
02:34:58.200 --> 02:35:01.879
<v Speaker 2>thrill oli I have ever heard one. It's the mail

2714
02:35:01.879 --> 02:35:04.559
<v Speaker 2>bag of real solid ogs in the game, letting us

2715
02:35:04.600 --> 02:35:08.920
<v Speaker 2>know they're out there. Two for they're out there and

2716
02:35:08.920 --> 02:35:11.120
<v Speaker 2>they're ready to be of use to us. This one

2717
02:35:11.120 --> 02:35:13.879
<v Speaker 2>from Tony says, Hello, chairman, I've been enjoying your podcast

2718
02:35:13.879 --> 02:35:15.600
<v Speaker 2>for many years. I would love in some way to

2719
02:35:15.639 --> 02:35:17.760
<v Speaker 2>be able to contribute. I'm about ten years older than

2720
02:35:17.799 --> 02:35:19.719
<v Speaker 2>you guys, and I had the distinction of growing up

2721
02:35:19.719 --> 02:35:25.079
<v Speaker 2>as a wrestling fan in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Wow, we know

2722
02:35:25.120 --> 02:35:25.799
<v Speaker 2>what we can do with that?

2723
02:35:26.680 --> 02:35:27.520
<v Speaker 3>Is he a nasty boy?

2724
02:35:27.600 --> 02:35:31.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh? Related to the Nasties? The Sags's sister Raw The

2725
02:35:31.479 --> 02:35:34.360
<v Speaker 2>whole family came over. I actually grew up in Bethlehem,

2726
02:35:34.399 --> 02:35:36.600
<v Speaker 2>and nobody cares. It's all about the time spent in

2727
02:35:36.639 --> 02:35:39.239
<v Speaker 2>Agricultural Hall with my mom and my Portuguese neighbor who

2728
02:35:39.280 --> 02:35:42.120
<v Speaker 2>learned how to speak English by watching WWF wrestling. My

2729
02:35:42.200 --> 02:35:44.760
<v Speaker 2>mom used to take me and my friend Carlos to

2730
02:35:44.840 --> 02:35:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Agricultural Hall every three weeks to watch WWF tapings. If

2731
02:35:47.920 --> 02:35:49.760
<v Speaker 2>you ever need a perspective on the atmosphere of the

2732
02:35:49.760 --> 02:35:52.520
<v Speaker 2>aura and the abundance of white trash, I would be

2733
02:35:52.559 --> 02:35:55.399
<v Speaker 2>happy to eloquently express the time period and words for

2734
02:35:55.399 --> 02:35:57.479
<v Speaker 2>those who were not able to experience when it was better.

2735
02:35:57.559 --> 02:35:59.159
<v Speaker 2>Please let me know if I can contribute for an

2736
02:35:59.200 --> 02:36:02.000
<v Speaker 2>upcoming podcast. Well, you know what, pal, here's the thing.

2737
02:36:03.600 --> 02:36:05.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure at some point we're going to come across

2738
02:36:05.239 --> 02:36:07.559
<v Speaker 2>ag hol again and it's going to be on the table.

2739
02:36:07.879 --> 02:36:11.520
<v Speaker 2>We felt a certain urge to pilgrimage there when we

2740
02:36:11.559 --> 02:36:14.040
<v Speaker 2>went there for WrestleMania forty. We were there. We had

2741
02:36:14.079 --> 02:36:16.879
<v Speaker 2>to remember, we bought tickets to a fucking stamp show

2742
02:36:17.319 --> 02:36:19.559
<v Speaker 2>while walking with the old ladies so we could stomp

2743
02:36:19.559 --> 02:36:22.200
<v Speaker 2>where they used to tape. Tell oh my god, try

2744
02:36:22.280 --> 02:36:24.600
<v Speaker 2>to explain to them, and they're trying to explain to us, like,

2745
02:36:25.000 --> 02:36:27.920
<v Speaker 2>you know what this is right, there's nobody here who's

2746
02:36:27.959 --> 02:36:31.079
<v Speaker 2>less than sixty eight years old. Yeah, and it's like, well, actually,

2747
02:36:31.319 --> 02:36:33.479
<v Speaker 2>do you know wwfs in town. It's like just go,

2748
02:36:33.959 --> 02:36:38.520
<v Speaker 2>just go just that is horrible, horribly embarrassing that day.

2749
02:36:38.600 --> 02:36:40.520
<v Speaker 2>But remember that market over there, that was pretty cool.

2750
02:36:40.959 --> 02:36:43.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Yeah, there was some there were some interesting things

2751
02:36:43.319 --> 02:36:44.360
<v Speaker 3>there for sure going on.

2752
02:36:44.680 --> 02:36:47.680
<v Speaker 2>But Tony, you write it up, man. That's that's why

2753
02:36:47.719 --> 02:36:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to make sure to signpost this during the

2754
02:36:50.520 --> 02:36:53.479
<v Speaker 2>mailbag episode. Just write up anything you remember. Just give

2755
02:36:53.559 --> 02:36:55.920
<v Speaker 2>us an essay of all the high points. Let us

2756
02:36:55.959 --> 02:36:58.239
<v Speaker 2>know not just that you were there, but what it

2757
02:36:58.319 --> 02:37:00.520
<v Speaker 2>was you saw there that you still remember to this day.

2758
02:37:00.760 --> 02:37:02.440
<v Speaker 2>And describe what it was like to go to those

2759
02:37:02.479 --> 02:37:05.200
<v Speaker 2>television tapings. Who did you always see? What was the

2760
02:37:05.239 --> 02:37:05.959
<v Speaker 2>crowd makeup?

2761
02:37:06.040 --> 02:37:06.120
<v Speaker 3>Like?

2762
02:37:06.200 --> 02:37:08.239
<v Speaker 2>What was it always the same people? What time of

2763
02:37:08.360 --> 02:37:09.959
<v Speaker 2>day was it? You know, what did you get to

2764
02:37:10.079 --> 02:37:11.600
<v Speaker 2>what did you get to eat? These are things we

2765
02:37:11.680 --> 02:37:15.520
<v Speaker 2>must know, just like how long? How long was it?

2766
02:37:15.920 --> 02:37:19.200
<v Speaker 2>How long was a full day? Exactly? How well could

2767
02:37:19.200 --> 02:37:21.399
<v Speaker 2>you hear the promo segments like the piper's pit stuff

2768
02:37:21.399 --> 02:37:23.159
<v Speaker 2>and all the things they set up in the back there?

2769
02:37:23.680 --> 02:37:25.120
<v Speaker 2>How would you get in and out? How would the

2770
02:37:25.120 --> 02:37:27.719
<v Speaker 2>wrestlers get in and out of the building? Did everybody

2771
02:37:27.719 --> 02:37:29.920
<v Speaker 2>know where to look for the wrestler's cars? Is all

2772
02:37:29.920 --> 02:37:31.399
<v Speaker 2>this stuff true that we used to hear that the

2773
02:37:31.440 --> 02:37:33.360
<v Speaker 2>heels you know, used to have their tires slashed and

2774
02:37:33.399 --> 02:37:35.719
<v Speaker 2>all that shit. Give it to us, you know what

2775
02:37:35.760 --> 02:37:39.600
<v Speaker 2>we need, Joe writes Mongo. Of course we did our

2776
02:37:39.639 --> 02:37:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Mango tribute used to do spots for a local gentleman's club.

2777
02:37:42.559 --> 02:37:44.520
<v Speaker 2>When he would just go champagne room. That's what he

2778
02:37:44.520 --> 02:37:46.920
<v Speaker 2>would just say over and over again. I spent hours

2779
02:37:46.920 --> 02:37:49.079
<v Speaker 2>trying to find it. Well, it's too bad that we

2780
02:37:49.120 --> 02:37:52.879
<v Speaker 2>didn't esc Thank you very much for your support and

2781
02:37:53.520 --> 02:37:57.280
<v Speaker 2>for champagne room. Yeah, the champagne room. That's where you

2782
02:37:57.559 --> 02:38:00.360
<v Speaker 2>go to be, you know, in private with the strippers

2783
02:38:01.879 --> 02:38:04.719
<v Speaker 2>and where the gagging happens. I won't say there. From

2784
02:38:04.719 --> 02:38:07.719
<v Speaker 2>who to who? Matt Anton Houston. He sent us a

2785
02:38:07.719 --> 02:38:09.959
<v Speaker 2>little bit of cheddar on PayPal, which we love to see,

2786
02:38:10.239 --> 02:38:12.559
<v Speaker 2>and a little note just to let it go down easy,

2787
02:38:12.840 --> 02:38:14.840
<v Speaker 2>He writes, I have a jar of fat under my sink.

2788
02:38:15.000 --> 02:38:16.959
<v Speaker 2>I pour oil into it after cooking to prevent my

2789
02:38:17.040 --> 02:38:19.680
<v Speaker 2>drain clogging up. Occasionally bits of food end up in there,

2790
02:38:19.719 --> 02:38:23.120
<v Speaker 2>swimming around. It has a centimeter layer of white hardened

2791
02:38:23.120 --> 02:38:27.159
<v Speaker 2>fat on top. The smell is immense. This is how

2792
02:38:27.200 --> 02:38:36.159
<v Speaker 2>I imagine Dusty's nether regions. Durnada wants us to know

2793
02:38:36.200 --> 02:38:40.120
<v Speaker 2>that there were one male rats, at least in Philly

2794
02:38:40.200 --> 02:38:42.319
<v Speaker 2>during the ecw Ring of Honor days. The Special k

2795
02:38:42.479 --> 02:38:45.159
<v Speaker 2>Faction had quite a few of them. So there you go.

2796
02:38:45.959 --> 02:38:47.639
<v Speaker 2>You're asking about male rats before.

2797
02:38:47.760 --> 02:38:50.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I remember, I remember.

2798
02:38:50.479 --> 02:38:53.079
<v Speaker 2>Bud Stefan Heenan. Always appreciate your sport. Thank you very much.

2799
02:38:53.159 --> 02:38:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Rob Williams, thanks for the increase in sport. Really appreciated

2800
02:38:56.040 --> 02:38:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Jordan's Capecchi. Thank you very much for always putting down

2801
02:38:59.559 --> 02:39:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the chutter that makes the difference. Zach puts it well

2802
02:39:02.719 --> 02:39:06.319
<v Speaker 2>on on Spotlight. Lots of parallels between wrestling and the

2803
02:39:06.360 --> 02:39:09.600
<v Speaker 2>territory days and the American Catholic Church moving priests around

2804
02:39:09.639 --> 02:39:12.479
<v Speaker 2>to get their shine back. One territory parish to the next.

2805
02:39:12.520 --> 02:39:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Has no knowledge of a fresh, new, baby faced priest

2806
02:39:14.719 --> 02:39:17.879
<v Speaker 2>coming to town. Unfortunately though the priests they considered altar

2807
02:39:17.920 --> 02:39:22.239
<v Speaker 2>boys their ring rats. Yeah, it's it's it's it's similar.

2808
02:39:22.799 --> 02:39:27.159
<v Speaker 2>There's some truth, similar lifestyles, similar lots in life. Tim Lee,

2809
02:39:27.239 --> 02:39:29.840
<v Speaker 2>thank you for the pledge. Christian Holister, of course, always

2810
02:39:29.879 --> 02:39:33.159
<v Speaker 2>rock solid. Who are you playing with? Wresselmania nine Hulk?

2811
02:39:33.959 --> 02:39:37.159
<v Speaker 2>I got no, I got uh, I got two gloops here,

2812
02:39:37.159 --> 02:39:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I got Sid and Luger. It's a good match. Yeah,

2813
02:39:42.159 --> 02:39:42.520
<v Speaker 2>you know.

2814
02:39:42.600 --> 02:39:44.959
<v Speaker 3>We have the pain great hip tosses. The great hip

2815
02:39:45.239 --> 02:39:48.280
<v Speaker 3>hip tossing is a great thing. Is a great thing

2816
02:39:48.360 --> 02:39:51.680
<v Speaker 3>to keep to keep. Uh uh, you know when the

2817
02:39:51.719 --> 02:39:54.840
<v Speaker 3>wee hours start, the wee hour start Yeah, that's huge.

2818
02:39:54.920 --> 02:39:58.440
<v Speaker 3>Hip hip tossing, hip tossing a drill?

2819
02:39:58.479 --> 02:40:01.760
<v Speaker 2>You got a drill? Yeah, you have to right, got

2820
02:40:01.760 --> 02:40:03.719
<v Speaker 2>to make sure they're on point for when the lights

2821
02:40:03.719 --> 02:40:06.120
<v Speaker 2>are on the brightest. Right, do you know we have

2822
02:40:06.200 --> 02:40:11.000
<v Speaker 2>the pink sid? What we have the pink sid? We

2823
02:40:11.079 --> 02:40:15.000
<v Speaker 2>have the pink sid. Where I'm looking at it right now?

2824
02:40:15.799 --> 02:40:18.479
<v Speaker 2>What during one of our hauls and whoever it was

2825
02:40:18.520 --> 02:40:20.239
<v Speaker 2>it got it for us is going to remember this?

2826
02:40:21.280 --> 02:40:24.479
<v Speaker 2>It was hidden inside of another gift. What I just

2827
02:40:24.520 --> 02:40:28.040
<v Speaker 2>found it a little while ago. Oh my god, tell

2828
02:40:28.079 --> 02:40:31.200
<v Speaker 2>in your way. Holy shit, those who are what we're

2829
02:40:31.200 --> 02:40:35.159
<v Speaker 2>talking about? W W glube I think uk exclusive there

2830
02:40:35.239 --> 02:40:37.159
<v Speaker 2>was a sid instead of the black singlet. He has

2831
02:40:37.159 --> 02:40:39.879
<v Speaker 2>a pink singlet. He has a pink singlet. Yeah, that's

2832
02:40:39.920 --> 02:40:44.079
<v Speaker 2>wild Bonanza. Those are crazy, I know. So thanks to

2833
02:40:44.079 --> 02:40:46.360
<v Speaker 2>whoever that was. I'm sure we failed to shout them

2834
02:40:46.360 --> 02:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>out appropriately during the unwrappening because we didn't see it.

2835
02:40:49.079 --> 02:40:52.200
<v Speaker 2>These these motherfuckers hide things. They only get us too much.

2836
02:40:52.319 --> 02:40:56.239
<v Speaker 2>They hide stuff that's wild. Josh writes, this discussion is

2837
02:40:56.239 --> 02:40:57.600
<v Speaker 2>so old and nobody's gonna read.

2838
02:40:57.399 --> 02:41:00.799
<v Speaker 3>This, but I'm surprised. What I was surprising is that nobody. Yeah,

2839
02:41:00.920 --> 02:41:04.360
<v Speaker 3>reached back out said hey and said, hey, hey, hey,

2840
02:41:05.159 --> 02:41:06.319
<v Speaker 3>I don't think we noticed it.

2841
02:41:07.479 --> 02:41:10.159
<v Speaker 2>No, I would have noticed that. I would have noticed

2842
02:41:10.159 --> 02:41:12.639
<v Speaker 2>that for sure, because I love those. I love those

2843
02:41:12.680 --> 02:41:14.280
<v Speaker 2>regular but I still have you know, I love them,

2844
02:41:14.399 --> 02:41:18.600
<v Speaker 2>the the big Josh one that I have. Yeah, fucking

2845
02:41:17.680 --> 02:41:21.959
<v Speaker 2>it's Josh. Yeah, that's what happens when we go and

2846
02:41:22.159 --> 02:41:25.280
<v Speaker 2>wax poetically about you know, long lust and rare figures,

2847
02:41:25.319 --> 02:41:28.639
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna end up in our fucking hands. Yep, Josh writes,

2848
02:41:28.680 --> 02:41:30.280
<v Speaker 2>this discussion is so old and nobody is going to

2849
02:41:30.319 --> 02:41:32.840
<v Speaker 2>read this. But regarding ECW's belt designs, remember we talked

2850
02:41:32.840 --> 02:41:35.159
<v Speaker 2>a lot about the ECW belt designs during the Sabage views.

2851
02:41:35.520 --> 02:41:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

2852
02:41:35.680 --> 02:41:37.920
<v Speaker 2>The classic ic and wind Eagle designs were owned by

2853
02:41:37.920 --> 02:41:40.239
<v Speaker 2>Reggie Parks. He retained the rights to produce them at

2854
02:41:40.239 --> 02:41:42.040
<v Speaker 2>well for anybody who wanted to buy them. He was

2855
02:41:42.040 --> 02:41:44.760
<v Speaker 2>even able to sell one to one repros of contemporaneous

2856
02:41:44.799 --> 02:41:46.840
<v Speaker 2>WWF belts as long as he did include the WWAF

2857
02:41:46.959 --> 02:41:49.719
<v Speaker 2>logo on any of the plates. Territories on a budget

2858
02:41:49.719 --> 02:41:52.200
<v Speaker 2>who wanted real belts but couldn't afford Holy Custom Designs

2859
02:41:52.280 --> 02:41:54.959
<v Speaker 2>would buy from Reggie by picking an existing design, similar

2860
02:41:55.040 --> 02:41:57.159
<v Speaker 2>to the way Flash Art works with budget tattoos. The

2861
02:41:57.239 --> 02:42:00.319
<v Speaker 2>high quality replicas that Dufises walk around with it wrestling

2862
02:42:00.360 --> 02:42:02.280
<v Speaker 2>shows didn't quite exist yet. I think it would be

2863
02:42:02.280 --> 02:42:04.440
<v Speaker 2>another two or three years until those figures inc. Replica

2864
02:42:04.440 --> 02:42:07.360
<v Speaker 2>belts started selling. Yes, so that's why the ECW Television

2865
02:42:07.399 --> 02:42:10.639
<v Speaker 2>Championship looked like the Wing Deegal WWF title because you

2866
02:42:10.719 --> 02:42:13.120
<v Speaker 2>know they ordered from Reggie Parks without the WWF logo

2867
02:42:13.239 --> 02:42:13.879
<v Speaker 2>on it, and there you.

2868
02:42:13.959 --> 02:42:17.239
<v Speaker 3>Go, that's just funny. Why would you, I guess, I guess.

2869
02:42:17.280 --> 02:42:22.639
<v Speaker 3>My question though, really is okay, why though? Why would

2870
02:42:22.680 --> 02:42:28.600
<v Speaker 3>you choose that belt? Right? That is so recognizable? Because

2871
02:42:28.879 --> 02:42:33.319
<v Speaker 3>I mean it is the remind me, is the ECW

2872
02:42:33.479 --> 02:42:36.239
<v Speaker 3>logo on that belt? Yes?

2873
02:42:37.520 --> 02:42:41.719
<v Speaker 2>So it was made, it was custom made with that design.

2874
02:42:41.840 --> 02:42:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Why would you choose that design? Questions?

2875
02:42:44.639 --> 02:42:44.680
<v Speaker 1>What?

2876
02:42:44.719 --> 02:42:51.360
<v Speaker 3>I don't understand the options because it's so recognizable, and

2877
02:42:51.760 --> 02:42:54.440
<v Speaker 3>it also just it's like it also doesn't feel like

2878
02:42:54.479 --> 02:42:58.520
<v Speaker 3>a TV title belt either, Like you know, if you're gonna,

2879
02:42:59.280 --> 02:43:01.040
<v Speaker 3>if you're gonna go with that far to buy the

2880
02:43:01.079 --> 02:43:03.959
<v Speaker 3>same design and put the ECW logo on it, why

2881
02:43:04.000 --> 02:43:05.280
<v Speaker 3>don't you just make it the world belt?

2882
02:43:05.440 --> 02:43:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Yeah, I agree, it's kind of weird that that

2883
02:43:08.079 --> 02:43:12.680
<v Speaker 2>was the flagship title their Their world title was always

2884
02:43:12.760 --> 02:43:15.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of weird to me. Yeah, because I always think

2885
02:43:15.760 --> 02:43:17.879
<v Speaker 2>of the nineteen ninety nine to one. I don't think

2886
02:43:17.920 --> 02:43:20.719
<v Speaker 2>of the one that was there when, like the one

2887
02:43:20.840 --> 02:43:23.920
<v Speaker 2>Terry Funk one, which is basically the ic title. Yeah,

2888
02:43:24.040 --> 02:43:28.000
<v Speaker 2>template right, I always think of the the one that

2889
02:43:28.159 --> 02:43:30.959
<v Speaker 2>had like the barber cage on it, like the fence

2890
02:43:31.000 --> 02:43:34.520
<v Speaker 2>on it. Yeah, for the tail end days, but right

2891
02:43:35.079 --> 02:43:38.360
<v Speaker 2>right when they when they actually made extreme looking belts, right,

2892
02:43:38.360 --> 02:43:41.200
<v Speaker 2>and the toys and everything. Colin writes, here are some

2893
02:43:41.280 --> 02:43:43.399
<v Speaker 2>rules I have come up with for keeping the titles important.

2894
02:43:43.520 --> 02:43:45.719
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of titles and preventing guys from slipping down the

2895
02:43:45.719 --> 02:43:46.879
<v Speaker 2>card and losing steam. I e.

2896
02:43:46.959 --> 02:43:47.360
<v Speaker 3>L A.

2897
02:43:47.520 --> 02:43:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Night one, If you were a former world champion, you

2898
02:43:49.920 --> 02:43:52.840
<v Speaker 2>should never again hold or challenge for the ic US title.

2899
02:43:53.319 --> 02:44:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Would you agree with that? Boss? Yes? I agree, at

2900
02:44:01.600 --> 02:44:05.440
<v Speaker 2>least until that's what killed Chris Jericho. He gets the

2901
02:44:05.520 --> 02:44:07.639
<v Speaker 2>role title and then we're all reminded, well, we didn't

2902
02:44:07.639 --> 02:44:09.719
<v Speaker 2>really mean that he's icy title for a.

2903
02:44:09.760 --> 02:44:13.559
<v Speaker 3>Life, right, unless unless.

2904
02:44:13.159 --> 02:44:16.920
<v Speaker 2>They make a guy make a guy.

2905
02:44:16.120 --> 02:44:18.680
<v Speaker 3>Right, But you know, again, unless you got the guy

2906
02:44:19.159 --> 02:44:22.159
<v Speaker 3>going down you know, unless they're on their way out.

2907
02:44:22.399 --> 02:44:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I would still find you know, because then

2908
02:44:24.680 --> 02:44:27.079
<v Speaker 2>well because then you can use them to build somebody up. Yeah,

2909
02:44:27.120 --> 02:44:29.239
<v Speaker 2>build up a challenger, but not the champ. They don't

2910
02:44:29.239 --> 02:44:30.879
<v Speaker 2>have the challenge for the belt, but they can help

2911
02:44:30.920 --> 02:44:34.159
<v Speaker 2>set up the next challenger for the belt. Yeah, I guess,

2912
02:44:34.239 --> 02:44:36.399
<v Speaker 2>I guess that's true. I like that rule a lot,

2913
02:44:37.079 --> 02:44:39.159
<v Speaker 2>just over time. I think it'll pay dividends, even if

2914
02:44:39.200 --> 02:44:42.280
<v Speaker 2>it creates inconveniences along the way to only put the

2915
02:44:42.399 --> 02:44:44.000
<v Speaker 2>icy US title on some and if you have semi

2916
02:44:44.000 --> 02:44:46.879
<v Speaker 2>concrete plans to make them world champion, bringing a third

2917
02:44:46.920 --> 02:44:49.040
<v Speaker 2>lower to your belt if need be, icy belt needs

2918
02:44:49.040 --> 02:44:51.840
<v Speaker 2>to hold more prestige, it should be the penultimate step,

2919
02:44:51.920 --> 02:44:54.280
<v Speaker 2>not the first. I like that rule too.

2920
02:44:54.920 --> 02:44:56.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean that's why they guess why the US

2921
02:44:56.520 --> 02:44:57.639
<v Speaker 3>title exists, honestly.

2922
02:44:57.760 --> 02:44:58.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, right.

2923
02:44:58.719 --> 02:45:01.440
<v Speaker 3>Three. I've always thought that, Yeah.

2924
02:45:01.319 --> 02:45:03.479
<v Speaker 2>The European title they kind of made it.

2925
02:45:03.600 --> 02:45:06.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, those I always liked that as being kind of

2926
02:45:06.440 --> 02:45:09.079
<v Speaker 3>a like I like there being steps. I like there

2927
02:45:09.120 --> 02:45:13.719
<v Speaker 3>being multiple steps, yes, to work up your your your

2928
02:45:14.840 --> 02:45:19.159
<v Speaker 3>singles credibility. This one is for fun number three to

2929
02:45:19.159 --> 02:45:21.559
<v Speaker 3>add more prestige the IC belt on one night a year,

2930
02:45:21.879 --> 02:45:24.360
<v Speaker 3>the IC champion can surrender the belt in exchange for

2931
02:45:24.399 --> 02:45:27.120
<v Speaker 3>a shot at the World champ one month notice, no

2932
02:45:27.280 --> 02:45:30.120
<v Speaker 3>cash ins. However, if they lose, they cannot challenge for

2933
02:45:30.159 --> 02:45:34.239
<v Speaker 3>any belt for a year. I think those kind of

2934
02:45:34.239 --> 02:45:37.399
<v Speaker 3>stipulations are great, Yeah, I do. I think those are

2935
02:45:37.520 --> 02:45:43.000
<v Speaker 3>very those are those are I think it's it's hard.

2936
02:45:43.600 --> 02:45:48.840
<v Speaker 3>It's certainly hard in professional wrestling, given that it's fake

2937
02:45:50.440 --> 02:45:52.719
<v Speaker 3>and you're trying to you know, you don't know where

2938
02:45:52.840 --> 02:45:55.280
<v Speaker 3>your guys are going to be in a year, you know,

2939
02:45:55.319 --> 02:45:58.479
<v Speaker 3>No matter how much you plan ahead, you really don't

2940
02:45:58.520 --> 02:46:03.559
<v Speaker 3>know you know who's going to be over in a year,

2941
02:46:04.719 --> 02:46:07.520
<v Speaker 3>you know. So it's hard to plan that, you know,

2942
02:46:07.520 --> 02:46:10.120
<v Speaker 3>because let's say, let's say you have the the Intercontinental.

2943
02:46:10.959 --> 02:46:13.520
<v Speaker 3>You have that you have someone cashing the Interconnental belt, sure,

2944
02:46:14.479 --> 02:46:18.239
<v Speaker 3>and for a world title shot, right kind of what

2945
02:46:18.280 --> 02:46:23.280
<v Speaker 3>didn't they do that in TNA? Yeah, the title? Right,

2946
02:46:23.840 --> 02:46:25.639
<v Speaker 3>So you turn in that belt, you go for it,

2947
02:46:25.680 --> 02:46:27.920
<v Speaker 3>but you lose. But then all of a sudden, within

2948
02:46:27.959 --> 02:46:30.559
<v Speaker 3>that year, that guy who lost becomes the hottest guy

2949
02:46:30.360 --> 02:46:34.959
<v Speaker 3>in the company. Then it's like, well shit, you know,

2950
02:46:35.040 --> 02:46:36.559
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I'm sure you can write a storyline to

2951
02:46:36.639 --> 02:46:39.079
<v Speaker 3>kind of to get your way out of it.

2952
02:46:39.159 --> 02:46:43.520
<v Speaker 2>But it it. It's it seems like it's a lot

2953
02:46:43.559 --> 02:46:46.879
<v Speaker 2>of work, but I like the idea. I wonder if

2954
02:46:46.879 --> 02:46:49.520
<v Speaker 2>there's a way to do it that would actually that

2955
02:46:49.520 --> 02:46:55.639
<v Speaker 2>would be more I don't know how would you say it,

2956
02:46:55.680 --> 02:46:58.920
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, like that you could do it without kind

2957
02:46:58.959 --> 02:47:01.360
<v Speaker 2>of booking yourself into a corner. Yeah. I think what

2958
02:47:01.639 --> 02:47:04.239
<v Speaker 2>I like about those year things is like, you know,

2959
02:47:04.280 --> 02:47:06.479
<v Speaker 2>even if something happens, the guy leaves, the guy's hurt,

2960
02:47:06.879 --> 02:47:09.600
<v Speaker 2>just don't do it. But if everything's good to do

2961
02:47:09.680 --> 02:47:11.799
<v Speaker 2>it within the year and that year is coming up,

2962
02:47:11.799 --> 02:47:14.000
<v Speaker 2>that's a great dramatic kind of thing to Yeah, that's

2963
02:47:14.079 --> 02:47:16.559
<v Speaker 2>kind of the money to being cash and clock ticking,

2964
02:47:16.680 --> 02:47:16.879
<v Speaker 2>you know.

2965
02:47:17.879 --> 02:47:19.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's true too, That is true.

2966
02:47:19.280 --> 02:47:21.600
<v Speaker 2>I like having that out there and for one fucking

2967
02:47:21.600 --> 02:47:25.559
<v Speaker 2>world champion, Amen, one fucking world that one upper car champion,

2968
02:47:25.760 --> 02:47:28.079
<v Speaker 2>icy belt, one lower car champion, I have to say,

2969
02:47:28.200 --> 02:47:30.559
<v Speaker 2>is someone that's you know, a stickler for world icee

2970
02:47:30.559 --> 02:47:33.399
<v Speaker 2>and tag. I do kind of see what he's going

2971
02:47:33.440 --> 02:47:36.719
<v Speaker 2>for there with that second secondary.

2972
02:47:36.799 --> 02:47:40.159
<v Speaker 3>I think it's I think it's great. I always liked

2973
02:47:40.200 --> 02:47:43.440
<v Speaker 3>having it. Yeah, you know, like having it having a

2974
02:47:43.440 --> 02:47:46.440
<v Speaker 3>TV title or you know, like a US title. You know.

2975
02:47:46.520 --> 02:47:49.399
<v Speaker 3>I also like the idea of the division of it all.

2976
02:47:49.440 --> 02:47:51.559
<v Speaker 3>It's like, well, you're the champion of the US, so

2977
02:47:51.639 --> 02:47:55.959
<v Speaker 3>you've you're conquering that essentially that region of the world,

2978
02:47:55.959 --> 02:47:59.719
<v Speaker 3>and then you you know, you become the Intercontinental champion

2979
02:47:59.719 --> 02:48:02.520
<v Speaker 3>after that, like you know, after you lose that belt,

2980
02:48:02.639 --> 02:48:08.360
<v Speaker 3>you know you, I mean, what what could be interesting? Again?

2981
02:48:08.399 --> 02:48:10.879
<v Speaker 3>This would be crazy hard. This would be a lot

2982
02:48:10.920 --> 02:48:14.399
<v Speaker 3>easier if you were running a legitimate sports league. But

2983
02:48:15.440 --> 02:48:19.479
<v Speaker 3>it's like, okay, so you you win the US title.

2984
02:48:20.000 --> 02:48:23.239
<v Speaker 3>Whenever you lose the US title, you are now in

2985
02:48:23.280 --> 02:48:27.600
<v Speaker 3>the Intercontinental division. Okay, now you have to go for

2986
02:48:27.639 --> 02:48:30.360
<v Speaker 3>the US belt. But if the Intercontinental belt, but if

2987
02:48:30.360 --> 02:48:33.360
<v Speaker 3>you lose the Intercontinental belt, you go back to the

2988
02:48:33.479 --> 02:48:36.159
<v Speaker 3>US title division, right, and you're gonna build your way

2989
02:48:36.159 --> 02:48:40.200
<v Speaker 3>back up again. I don't know, it's.

2990
02:48:40.079 --> 02:48:43.159
<v Speaker 2>All it's compound. I can see validity there as long

2991
02:48:43.200 --> 02:48:45.120
<v Speaker 2>as the fans believe that it's a stepping stone.

2992
02:48:45.360 --> 02:48:47.760
<v Speaker 3>But again, the idea is that that that is like,

2993
02:48:47.840 --> 02:48:50.879
<v Speaker 3>how do you That's a lot to keep track of

2994
02:48:51.000 --> 02:48:56.840
<v Speaker 3>it in terms of you know, fictional wrestling.

2995
02:48:57.079 --> 02:48:59.200
<v Speaker 2>And I heard some good suggestions to fired at US

2996
02:48:59.200 --> 02:49:01.879
<v Speaker 2>since we've broached this topic of like, maybe all you

2997
02:49:01.920 --> 02:49:04.760
<v Speaker 2>do is make the last month's worth of matches relevant

2998
02:49:05.000 --> 02:49:07.680
<v Speaker 2>to your standing. You know, they start do rankings you

2999
02:49:07.680 --> 02:49:10.000
<v Speaker 2>don't have to do since the inception of your time

3000
02:49:10.000 --> 02:49:12.399
<v Speaker 2>in the company, you know, or your all time wrestling record.

3001
02:49:12.719 --> 02:49:15.559
<v Speaker 2>You can just make the recent run the only relevant one,

3002
02:49:15.840 --> 02:49:19.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, the recent comparative records. So these guys go

3003
02:49:19.280 --> 02:49:21.200
<v Speaker 2>on a little bit of a streak before suddenly getting

3004
02:49:21.200 --> 02:49:23.639
<v Speaker 2>a title shot instead of getting a title shot because

3005
02:49:23.879 --> 02:49:26.120
<v Speaker 2>the last paper you just ended, and on the next

3006
02:49:26.200 --> 02:49:28.040
<v Speaker 2>TV the champion comes out and says, who else is

3007
02:49:28.040 --> 02:49:29.680
<v Speaker 2>it going to be? And then the first person to

3008
02:49:29.719 --> 02:49:33.079
<v Speaker 2>walk out somehow gets a title shot. That's just suboptimal,

3009
02:49:33.159 --> 02:49:35.479
<v Speaker 2>to say the least. Ac Slater want to thank you

3010
02:49:35.600 --> 02:49:37.479
<v Speaker 2>very much for the increase to the mote tier. We

3011
02:49:37.520 --> 02:49:39.440
<v Speaker 2>really appreciate all that support. I want to give a

3012
02:49:39.479 --> 02:49:42.520
<v Speaker 2>big shout out to Andy. Andy put a book out.

3013
02:49:42.559 --> 02:49:44.959
<v Speaker 2>We talk about how one of our proudest moments is

3014
02:49:45.159 --> 02:49:47.399
<v Speaker 2>t left coach. Heers just when we inspire folks to

3015
02:49:47.440 --> 02:49:50.440
<v Speaker 2>create and he read it. He says, about a month ago,

3016
02:49:50.639 --> 02:49:51.959
<v Speaker 2>sent you a link to a book you inspired me

3017
02:49:52.000 --> 02:49:54.879
<v Speaker 2>to put together. It's called slantastic stupidity, The Unknown Critics

3018
02:49:54.879 --> 02:49:58.360
<v Speaker 2>blistering commentary on Pro Wrestling's one one hundred most outrageous gimmicks,

3019
02:49:58.600 --> 02:50:00.440
<v Speaker 2>and upon publishing the book, I quickly you realize that

3020
02:50:00.440 --> 02:50:02.479
<v Speaker 2>while yes, I did dedicate the book to the lapsed fan,

3021
02:50:02.559 --> 02:50:05.680
<v Speaker 2>hell yeah, that one sentence line was not nearly sufficient

3022
02:50:05.760 --> 02:50:07.879
<v Speaker 2>enough to show proper gratitude to the cast. In the

3023
02:50:07.920 --> 02:50:10.159
<v Speaker 2>years of enjoyment it has given me, I still remember

3024
02:50:10.200 --> 02:50:11.920
<v Speaker 2>almost losing it on a flight to Des Moines while

3025
02:50:11.920 --> 02:50:15.120
<v Speaker 2>listening to JP's run Gan imitation during the Ahwa Journey,

3026
02:50:15.680 --> 02:50:17.319
<v Speaker 2>or spinning up my protein drink at the gym wall

3027
02:50:17.360 --> 02:50:20.239
<v Speaker 2>you hilariously dissected the fall of WCCW, or that last

3028
02:50:20.280 --> 02:50:22.959
<v Speaker 2>Colisseum home video, or JP's Andre the Giant Impression, which

3029
02:50:22.959 --> 02:50:25.200
<v Speaker 2>always gets me. Moments like these and many more deserve

3030
02:50:25.280 --> 02:50:27.639
<v Speaker 2>much more thoughtful recognition and book form, which brings me

3031
02:50:27.719 --> 02:50:29.840
<v Speaker 2>in my latest project, the eleventh book in the series,

3032
02:50:29.879 --> 02:50:33.600
<v Speaker 2>called The Unknown Critic presents Enhancement Talent, a glorious tribute

3033
02:50:33.639 --> 02:50:36.959
<v Speaker 2>to Pro Wrestling's job guys and mike men, historical comedy

3034
02:50:37.000 --> 02:50:40.479
<v Speaker 2>book profiling over one hundred jobbers and thirty commentators, many

3035
02:50:40.520 --> 02:50:42.280
<v Speaker 2>well probably all of whom you have roasted on the

3036
02:50:42.280 --> 02:50:44.200
<v Speaker 2>show in one way or another. In this book, I

3037
02:50:44.200 --> 02:50:46.840
<v Speaker 2>built in an expanded mini book midbook chapter called the

3038
02:50:46.920 --> 02:50:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Lapsed Legends, How the Lapsed Fan Podcast enhances wrestlers forgotten stories,

3039
02:50:51.920 --> 02:50:54.680
<v Speaker 2>weaving in the overall theme of talent enhancement, and how

3040
02:50:54.719 --> 02:50:57.000
<v Speaker 2>the cast does this like no other. I also reference

3041
02:50:57.040 --> 02:50:58.879
<v Speaker 2>the cast in a number of other parts of the book,

3042
02:50:58.879 --> 02:51:01.719
<v Speaker 2>because really, this book book, more than Slantastic Stupidity, is

3043
02:51:01.760 --> 02:51:04.520
<v Speaker 2>the definitive work on wrestling Jobbers, a true love letter

3044
02:51:04.520 --> 02:51:07.319
<v Speaker 2>to the lost art of jobbing, something now mostly forgotten

3045
02:51:07.319 --> 02:51:09.559
<v Speaker 2>in a Neira gone by, never to return. No other

3046
02:51:09.559 --> 02:51:13.879
<v Speaker 2>podcast aside from yours, even mentions jobbing, hence included. Including

3047
02:51:13.879 --> 02:51:16.719
<v Speaker 2>a lapsed fan tribute in this one was a no brainer.

3048
02:51:17.559 --> 02:51:19.200
<v Speaker 2>So there you go. Is there an audience for this

3049
02:51:19.200 --> 02:51:22.600
<v Speaker 2>book outside of the TLF solar system. Highly unlikely, as

3050
02:51:22.639 --> 02:51:27.200
<v Speaker 2>girl La Monsoon might say, I've sold highly unlikely, brain,

3051
02:51:27.399 --> 02:51:30.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god. Unless there is a that's perfect, that's

3052
02:51:31.000 --> 02:51:34.040
<v Speaker 2>exactly what he's going for. Unless there's an audience somewhere

3053
02:51:34.079 --> 02:51:36.399
<v Speaker 2>curious about the career arcs of guys like Jerry Monty,

3054
02:51:36.760 --> 02:51:40.079
<v Speaker 2>Italian Stallion, Bob Cook and other Legends of Laying Down.

3055
02:51:40.159 --> 02:51:42.799
<v Speaker 2>It will probably get lost in the Amazon shuffle. I frankly,

3056
02:51:42.840 --> 02:51:44.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't care, though, because it was so damn fun

3057
02:51:44.760 --> 02:51:47.000
<v Speaker 2>to put together, and it gives proper praise to the

3058
02:51:47.040 --> 02:51:49.079
<v Speaker 2>Lapsed Fan. It's the kind of book I would want

3059
02:51:49.079 --> 02:51:50.680
<v Speaker 2>to read as a fan of wrestling in the eighties,

3060
02:51:50.799 --> 02:51:52.520
<v Speaker 2>as many, if not all, of the job guys I

3061
02:51:52.559 --> 02:51:54.799
<v Speaker 2>put in the book are more interesting than today's main

3062
02:51:54.840 --> 02:51:57.319
<v Speaker 2>event talent. And some of these jobbers even wrote books

3063
02:51:57.360 --> 02:51:59.520
<v Speaker 2>that you might want to hunt down for additional cast fodder.

3064
02:52:00.040 --> 02:52:03.280
<v Speaker 3>Hope, hope he did a tribute to Philipolo Philip.

3065
02:52:03.319 --> 02:52:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Maybe he's in there. I can't say for sure, but

3066
02:52:05.520 --> 02:52:10.559
<v Speaker 2>we definitely appreciate the acknowledgment that the Lapsed Fan provides

3067
02:52:10.959 --> 02:52:13.799
<v Speaker 2>fuel to so many wrestling fires out there. And Andy,

3068
02:52:14.239 --> 02:52:15.959
<v Speaker 2>best of luck with the book, and we hope that

3069
02:52:16.159 --> 02:52:18.879
<v Speaker 2>by flagging it here for the Solar System we get

3070
02:52:18.879 --> 02:52:21.680
<v Speaker 2>some eyeballs on it. Gordon wants us to know I

3071
02:52:21.879 --> 02:52:25.440
<v Speaker 2>was absolutely hysterical, my god, he writes, I was in

3072
02:52:25.479 --> 02:52:27.840
<v Speaker 2>the gym trying to work out with TLF in my ears,

3073
02:52:28.280 --> 02:52:34.760
<v Speaker 2>Dusty finding crumbs in his folds. Dusty has more rolls

3074
02:52:34.799 --> 02:52:41.680
<v Speaker 2>than Ben Dusty folds eighty Dusty's mammary glands. He sweats

3075
02:52:41.760 --> 02:52:46.520
<v Speaker 2>chicken stock, bringing out his arm over a pot.

3076
02:52:48.079 --> 02:52:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Let's imagine, you know, the the flabby you know, he's

3077
02:52:50.959 --> 02:52:53.840
<v Speaker 3>got like flabby arms. Come on and just stop hangs

3078
02:52:53.879 --> 02:52:56.600
<v Speaker 3>around there and it's like the you know, rip drip drips.

3079
02:52:56.840 --> 02:53:00.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh Christ, you know you have to he likes to.

3080
02:53:00.639 --> 02:53:03.760
<v Speaker 3>He likes to hang his arm over a pot so

3081
02:53:03.799 --> 02:53:05.239
<v Speaker 3>he can just drip the chicken stock.

3082
02:53:05.319 --> 02:53:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, it says right here, ladling hot tub soup because

3083
02:53:08.000 --> 02:53:11.639
<v Speaker 2>he being oh good lord, it just kept going. I

3084
02:53:11.680 --> 02:53:15.079
<v Speaker 2>had take a five minute break. Amazing work. Keep it up.

3085
02:53:15.120 --> 02:53:19.200
<v Speaker 2>That's the brilliance, Gordon, is that's considered work, you know, yes, right,

3086
02:53:19.239 --> 02:53:22.280
<v Speaker 2>if that's good work, and then let it lung continue, Yeah, exactly.

3087
02:53:22.360 --> 02:53:25.520
<v Speaker 2>I want to thank the anonymous gentleman who joined the

3088
02:53:25.559 --> 02:53:28.600
<v Speaker 2>executive producer tear We see You. Rob wants us to

3089
02:53:28.639 --> 02:53:30.120
<v Speaker 2>know whether it used to be a production assistant. At

3090
02:53:30.120 --> 02:53:33.239
<v Speaker 2>the Pittsburgh Steelers game. He mostly did nothing during the

3091
02:53:33.239 --> 02:53:35.000
<v Speaker 2>game itself, but got to listen to the booth in

3092
02:53:35.000 --> 02:53:37.680
<v Speaker 2>the headsets. This is part of our discussion around adding

3093
02:53:37.760 --> 02:53:40.600
<v Speaker 2>crowdsweetening noise and how it's such a pro wrestling trick.

3094
02:53:40.639 --> 02:53:42.719
<v Speaker 2>But of course it's not, of course not. Of course,

3095
02:53:42.760 --> 02:53:46.639
<v Speaker 2>the whole world resembles pro wrestling way more than we realize. Yes,

3096
02:53:46.799 --> 02:53:48.959
<v Speaker 2>Rob writes, if the crowd was down, they'd be like

3097
02:53:49.120 --> 02:53:51.200
<v Speaker 2>throw the noise meter or whatever their version of it

3098
02:53:51.280 --> 02:53:53.079
<v Speaker 2>was called up there, And I don't know if it

3099
02:53:53.120 --> 02:53:54.959
<v Speaker 2>was a shoot, but there would be times where it

3100
02:53:55.079 --> 02:53:56.799
<v Speaker 2>didn't peak at the end. This is where they show

3101
02:53:56.879 --> 02:53:59.440
<v Speaker 2>that little uh thing in the corner during WWP at

3102
02:53:59.520 --> 02:54:02.399
<v Speaker 2>least so stupid still, they pretty much just never wanted

3103
02:54:02.399 --> 02:54:04.760
<v Speaker 2>a second of dead air. So that's why you do it,

3104
02:54:04.799 --> 02:54:07.040
<v Speaker 2>is to get the crowd up during moments where they're

3105
02:54:07.120 --> 02:54:09.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of down. I say, wdwe doesn't really use it

3106
02:54:09.120 --> 02:54:10.879
<v Speaker 2>that way. They don't like show it when people are

3107
02:54:10.959 --> 02:54:14.000
<v Speaker 2>being quiet. But it is funny and interesting to me,

3108
02:54:14.440 --> 02:54:20.120
<v Speaker 2>how how gotten to even NFL franchises are about a

3109
02:54:20.200 --> 02:54:23.319
<v Speaker 2>lack of appropriate enthusiasm Like who cares? Exactly? Why do

3110
02:54:23.360 --> 02:54:24.879
<v Speaker 2>they care? Why does it even cross their mind?

3111
02:54:24.959 --> 02:54:27.959
<v Speaker 3>Like if it's good, it's a good game, Like isn't

3112
02:54:28.000 --> 02:54:30.680
<v Speaker 3>that what fucking matters? Like, Oh, we're producing entertainment show

3113
02:54:30.719 --> 02:54:31.319
<v Speaker 3>in a lot of ways.

3114
02:54:31.479 --> 02:54:32.159
<v Speaker 2>No, you're not.

3115
02:54:32.639 --> 02:54:35.879
<v Speaker 3>No, stop you know what when I'm when I'm watching

3116
02:54:35.920 --> 02:54:39.120
<v Speaker 3>a football game, I don't care about the crowd there.

3117
02:54:39.200 --> 02:54:41.079
<v Speaker 3>I care about the Patriots winning.

3118
02:54:41.280 --> 02:54:42.840
<v Speaker 2>It is true, though, when I watched when I watch

3119
02:54:42.879 --> 02:54:44.959
<v Speaker 2>an NFL Sunday game, like, there is this kind of

3120
02:54:45.000 --> 02:54:48.280
<v Speaker 2>phony sound the whole time, it's like an echoey and

3121
02:54:48.319 --> 02:54:50.159
<v Speaker 2>I always just chalk that up to the you know,

3122
02:54:50.200 --> 02:54:52.920
<v Speaker 2>the structure and nature of NFL stadiums. But I could

3123
02:54:52.920 --> 02:54:55.600
<v Speaker 2>also see a lot of it being just like totally forced.

3124
02:54:55.639 --> 02:54:58.120
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not suggesting they put fake crowd noise in there,

3125
02:54:58.159 --> 02:55:00.719
<v Speaker 2>but the idea that they have to like rile the

3126
02:55:00.760 --> 02:55:02.920
<v Speaker 2>crowd up for the television cameras and not for the team.

3127
02:55:02.959 --> 02:55:06.319
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of weird, but it happens. Sam wants us

3128
02:55:06.319 --> 02:55:08.360
<v Speaker 2>to know that Bullion of the Woods had him in

3129
02:55:08.399 --> 02:55:12.440
<v Speaker 2>tears going down the freeway. Damien Thorn, thank you very

<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to have lunch. It's gonna be great, boss.

3139
02:55:40.799 --> 02:55:45.079

3144
02:56:04.000 --> 02:56:07.120
<v Speaker 2>because he wears no underwear, doesn't when he just fucking

3145
02:56:07.280 --> 02:56:12.920
<v Speaker 2>freeballing it all right with just just sweaty ass that

3146
02:56:13.040 --> 02:56:15.520
<v Speaker 2>from our coverage of the final WCW Clash of the

3147
02:56:15.600 --> 02:56:19.120
<v Speaker 2>Champions in nineteen ninety six. Slammy Awards eighty six Part two.

3148
02:56:19.200 --> 02:56:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Corey comes in as always with the fact checking the

3149
02:56:21.520 --> 02:56:24.040
<v Speaker 2>masked wrestler in the Land of a Thousand Dances mister

3150
02:56:24.319 --> 02:56:26.239
<v Speaker 2>X the you know the music video that they produced

3151
02:56:26.239 --> 02:56:27.079
<v Speaker 2>for the wrestling.

3152
02:56:26.719 --> 02:56:28.040
<v Speaker 3>Album Yeah Stupid.

3153
02:56:28.159 --> 02:56:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, he wants us know that was none other than

3154
02:56:29.920 --> 02:56:33.520
<v Speaker 2>Danny Davis and Bear. Dario is also in the heel

3155
02:56:33.559 --> 02:56:36.520
<v Speaker 2>crowd for long, and he also points out that we

3156
02:56:36.600 --> 02:56:38.719
<v Speaker 2>credited George Wells as being in the video, but that

3157
02:56:38.840 --> 02:56:41.639
<v Speaker 2>was actually special Delivery Jones. So there you go.

3158
02:56:41.840 --> 02:56:42.600
<v Speaker 3>Wow. Okay.

3159
02:56:43.559 --> 02:56:47.840
<v Speaker 2>For the sake of clarification, Rob asks, how is Dragon

3160
02:56:48.680 --> 02:56:50.840
<v Speaker 2>the part of Ultimo Dragon's name that Dusty had a

3161
02:56:50.879 --> 02:56:51.879
<v Speaker 2>hard time saying.

3162
02:56:52.959 --> 02:56:57.520
<v Speaker 3>Dragone because he likes to drag on.

3163
02:56:57.600 --> 02:57:03.399
<v Speaker 2>Right, That's for sure? Is absolutely case, Pap writes. Boss

3164
02:57:03.399 --> 02:57:06.040
<v Speaker 2>said Mickey Rooney instead of Mickey Wark when talking about

3165
02:57:06.079 --> 02:57:09.360
<v Speaker 2>slinging egg salad? Did I say, Mickey, it's funny and

3166
02:57:09.399 --> 02:57:11.120
<v Speaker 2>that metal image is funny to me on a level

3167
02:57:11.120 --> 02:57:12.120
<v Speaker 2>that is indescribable.

3168
02:57:13.319 --> 02:57:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Mickey Rooney eggs salad is a great visual honestly, because

3169
02:57:18.040 --> 02:57:23.200
<v Speaker 3>I picture I picture cranky Mickey Rooney from uh like

3170
02:57:23.319 --> 02:57:27.360
<v Speaker 3>Night of the Museum, Yes, where he's just fucking miserable

3171
02:57:27.399 --> 02:57:32.959
<v Speaker 3>and just that's and fucking throwing eggs salad at it

3172
02:57:33.479 --> 02:57:34.959
<v Speaker 3>at different customers.

3173
02:57:35.879 --> 02:57:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Of course, that final Clash of the Champion episode was

3174
02:57:37.680 --> 02:57:39.799
<v Speaker 2>a tribute to Steve Manga McMichael, who just passed away,

3175
02:57:39.840 --> 02:57:41.399
<v Speaker 2>and he wins the US title on that show. I'm

3176
02:57:41.399 --> 02:57:43.840
<v Speaker 2>pretty much as crowning pro wrestling achievement such as it was,

3177
02:57:44.520 --> 02:57:46.959
<v Speaker 2>and the homie butt stuff and Heenan wanted us to

3178
02:57:46.959 --> 02:57:49.360
<v Speaker 2>know a Patreon. This is why I suggested the show.

3179
02:57:49.399 --> 02:57:51.040
<v Speaker 2>I knew you guys would go above and beyond and

3180
02:57:51.040 --> 02:57:53.280
<v Speaker 2>paying tribute to Mongo. You guys know how to honor

3181
02:57:53.280 --> 02:57:56.040
<v Speaker 2>wrestlers and ways other podcasts don't. I'm not saying that

3182
02:57:56.079 --> 02:57:58.280
<v Speaker 2>to kiss your ass. I mean, Jesus Christ, you spent

3183
02:57:58.520 --> 02:58:00.360
<v Speaker 2>months on cid uty and looked at his life from

3184
02:58:00.360 --> 02:58:02.760
<v Speaker 2>all different angles. Who the fuck else would do that?

3185
02:58:03.120 --> 02:58:04.600
<v Speaker 2>This is why you two are the best at this.

3186
02:58:04.959 --> 02:58:07.360
<v Speaker 2>You do what you do and you don't give a fuck.

3187
02:58:08.840 --> 02:58:12.639
<v Speaker 2>People better, people better anybody. Anybody who's thinking of dying

3188
02:58:12.680 --> 02:58:14.600
<v Speaker 2>in the next like two years, they better fucking put

3189
02:58:14.600 --> 02:58:16.600
<v Speaker 2>a halt on that, right, because that's going to be

3190
02:58:16.639 --> 02:58:21.319
<v Speaker 2>a sore disappointment. Yep, We've got a big fish to fry, brother,

3191
02:58:22.239 --> 02:58:23.840
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know when that thing's going to be

3192
02:58:24.120 --> 02:58:29.000
<v Speaker 2>ready for consumption. Logan's just realizing Blazing Saddles could count

3193
02:58:29.079 --> 02:58:32.040
<v Speaker 2>for under the cinemat because of Steve McMichael. He got

3194
02:58:32.079 --> 02:58:34.079
<v Speaker 2>the nickname Mango from a character in the movie.

3195
02:58:34.600 --> 02:58:38.079
<v Speaker 3>Interesting. Well, it qualifies anyway.

3196
02:58:38.479 --> 02:58:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Because Alex Carris, Because Alex Carris, So that's taking care

3197
02:58:42.520 --> 02:58:45.399
<v Speaker 2>of it's there, Brian Blake. Actually it was quick to

3198
02:58:45.399 --> 02:58:47.159
<v Speaker 2>point that out, and so I'm glad you did as well.

3199
02:58:49.920 --> 02:58:53.600
<v Speaker 2>You know, Alex Carris Jesus Christ to a whole series

3200
02:58:53.639 --> 02:58:59.120
<v Speaker 2>on the fucking Webster TV series. Oh Webster, I remember Webster. Yeah,

3201
02:58:59.239 --> 02:59:03.879
<v Speaker 2>I fascinating because he was the dad on that. Oh

3202
02:59:04.000 --> 02:59:12.000
<v Speaker 2>my god, you talk to dad. We did the Final

3203
02:59:12.040 --> 02:59:13.399
<v Speaker 2>Class show. That was the show where you know, the

3204
02:59:13.479 --> 02:59:15.440
<v Speaker 2>nWo comes in the ring and stings crow Lands on

3205
02:59:15.479 --> 02:59:17.879
<v Speaker 2>the ropes. Jeff writes, as a teenager, I think this

3206
02:59:18.000 --> 02:59:19.680
<v Speaker 2>was the turning point that really made me question the

3207
02:59:19.680 --> 02:59:22.120
<v Speaker 2>point of the obnoxious nWo gimmick, which is getting pretty

3208
02:59:22.159 --> 02:59:24.120
<v Speaker 2>lame now. But I figured, well, I suppose it'll be

3209
02:59:24.120 --> 02:59:26.600
<v Speaker 2>worth it when they get there as such youthful naivete

3210
02:59:26.840 --> 02:59:29.360
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that's what we're all nostalgic for a time when

3211
02:59:29.399 --> 02:59:31.680
<v Speaker 2>we didn't know any better, and being hugely disappointed was

3212
02:59:31.680 --> 02:59:37.239
<v Speaker 2>the exception, not the norm. M Nicholas Chiaparra, thanks very

3213
02:59:37.319 --> 02:59:40.200
<v Speaker 2>much for your increase in pledge. Matthew Muns always appreciate

3214
02:59:40.239 --> 02:59:43.200
<v Speaker 2>your support on Patreon. Matthew of Madison want to thank

3215
02:59:43.239 --> 02:59:45.959
<v Speaker 2>you for joining the Executive producer ter Brie wants us

3216
02:59:46.000 --> 02:59:50.200
<v Speaker 2>to know TLF outlived the real WWE network concept. That's

3217
02:59:50.200 --> 02:59:53.799
<v Speaker 2>pretty wild. Wow, not truth, that is pretty wild. Bruno,

3218
02:59:53.840 --> 02:59:55.760
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much for your cake. We appreciate it.

3219
02:59:55.799 --> 02:59:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Same to you, Brandon Davis and Jeff, thank you for

3220
02:59:57.920 --> 03:00:02.239
<v Speaker 2>that recent increase in pledge. Neil. Notice out there in

3221
03:00:02.239 --> 03:00:05.040
<v Speaker 2>the wild, we gave some some shout outs, some nods

3222
03:00:05.040 --> 03:00:07.799
<v Speaker 2>of respect to the ww Vault. Earlier, he found an

3223
03:00:07.879 --> 03:00:09.559
<v Speaker 2>article on the Verge with a quote that says this,

3224
03:00:09.959 --> 03:00:12.639
<v Speaker 2>like WWE's primary YouTube channel, some videos posted to the

3225
03:00:12.719 --> 03:00:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Vault will eventually disappear. Why exactly? And that's where you

3226
03:00:20.079 --> 03:00:23.600
<v Speaker 2>lose me. Whatever exclusivity you think is in there, whatever

3227
03:00:23.639 --> 03:00:25.440
<v Speaker 2>you think you can sell or whatever the fuck like,

3228
03:00:25.719 --> 03:00:27.920
<v Speaker 2>there needs to be a permanent home where we as

3229
03:00:27.959 --> 03:00:30.600
<v Speaker 2>fans can know we have access. And I'm not just

3230
03:00:30.639 --> 03:00:32.559
<v Speaker 2>saying that because we do a podcast blah blah blah. No,

3231
03:00:32.920 --> 03:00:34.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying that because that's where the money is for

3232
03:00:34.719 --> 03:00:38.159
<v Speaker 2>you guys and for everybody, is having people pony up

3233
03:00:38.159 --> 03:00:41.239
<v Speaker 2>to have access to the Vault, irrespective of what other

3234
03:00:41.360 --> 03:00:44.520
<v Speaker 2>side deals you might cut to license it out. The

3235
03:00:44.600 --> 03:00:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Vault does not need to be exclusive. The Vault is not,

3236
03:00:48.159 --> 03:00:50.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, the streaming service should not care that there's

3237
03:00:50.840 --> 03:00:52.559
<v Speaker 2>more than one way to get the archives, if the

3238
03:00:52.680 --> 03:00:54.959
<v Speaker 2>archives are such an afterthought like you always seem to

3239
03:00:55.000 --> 03:00:58.799
<v Speaker 2>tell us they are, right, right, If nobody subscribes to

3240
03:00:58.799 --> 03:01:00.799
<v Speaker 2>Peacock or the network for the old old stuff, and

3241
03:01:00.840 --> 03:01:03.239
<v Speaker 2>nobody watches the old stuff, then why does that stuff

3242
03:01:03.280 --> 03:01:06.239
<v Speaker 2>need to be exclusive and shopped around as an exclusive

3243
03:01:06.239 --> 03:01:08.399
<v Speaker 2>packaged all the platforms? Why can't it be in three

3244
03:01:08.399 --> 03:01:09.200
<v Speaker 2>places at once?

3245
03:01:09.559 --> 03:01:09.760
<v Speaker 3>Right?

3246
03:01:10.159 --> 03:01:12.559
<v Speaker 2>Why can it be on Peacock and Netflix? Exactly?

3247
03:01:12.600 --> 03:01:13.440
<v Speaker 3>If nobody cares?

3248
03:01:13.479 --> 03:01:18.559
<v Speaker 2>Exactly, give me a fucking break. Now, Now, when when

3249
03:01:18.680 --> 03:01:21.440
<v Speaker 2>is When is the Peacock thing shutting down? I don't know.

3250
03:01:21.520 --> 03:01:24.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean that they're in negotiations soon. I think it's

3251
03:01:24.120 --> 03:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>up in twenty twenty six, the deal, so we'll see.

3252
03:01:27.600 --> 03:01:30.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, who takes the pay per views? You know?

3253
03:01:30.239 --> 03:01:31.360
<v Speaker 2>How does that shake out?

3254
03:01:31.680 --> 03:01:31.840
<v Speaker 3>Right?

3255
03:01:31.920 --> 03:01:33.239
<v Speaker 2>Does Netflix go for it?

3256
03:01:33.399 --> 03:01:40.120
<v Speaker 3>But and then isn't uh isn't what happens to the

3257
03:01:40.559 --> 03:01:41.680
<v Speaker 3>you know, the archive?

3258
03:01:42.399 --> 03:01:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Im That's what I personally read in the ramping up

3259
03:01:46.120 --> 03:01:49.079
<v Speaker 2>of this vault thing. Yeah, was them just basically saying

3260
03:01:49.079 --> 03:01:50.639
<v Speaker 2>we'll just put it all on YouTube, which I think

3261
03:01:50.680 --> 03:01:53.319
<v Speaker 2>is brilliant. I think it's a great idea and YouTube

3262
03:01:53.319 --> 03:01:55.799
<v Speaker 2>has now structured such that you can have our subscription

3263
03:01:55.879 --> 03:01:58.520
<v Speaker 2>to see it. The thing is, though, what I'm we're

3264
03:01:58.559 --> 03:02:03.479
<v Speaker 2>so annoying though about it is and what I do listen,

3265
03:02:03.520 --> 03:02:04.680
<v Speaker 2>I do love it. I do.

3266
03:02:04.840 --> 03:02:09.799
<v Speaker 3>I love the archive, but they don't put on enough

3267
03:02:09.879 --> 03:02:12.319
<v Speaker 3>full things. I don't I don't know. I just I

3268
03:02:12.360 --> 03:02:15.760
<v Speaker 3>don't care about matches nibbling at the edges. I wish

3269
03:02:15.760 --> 03:02:19.680
<v Speaker 3>they would never. I wish they would stop putting matches

3270
03:02:19.760 --> 03:02:23.159
<v Speaker 3>up there like that to me is not interesting, Like

3271
03:02:23.399 --> 03:02:27.479
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I know interesting right like this, like the

3272
03:02:27.520 --> 03:02:29.600
<v Speaker 3>Sunday Night Slam thing they put up there, like that's

3273
03:02:29.719 --> 03:02:34.360
<v Speaker 3>fucking amazing. Put those up, you know, like those are

3274
03:02:34.399 --> 03:02:35.879
<v Speaker 3>things that you're not going to be able to find,

3275
03:02:36.120 --> 03:02:39.520
<v Speaker 3>you know, not don't necessarily put up every single WrestleMania

3276
03:02:39.879 --> 03:02:43.079
<v Speaker 3>yet until we can't get it anymore. But like put

3277
03:02:43.159 --> 03:02:45.520
<v Speaker 3>up put up these random things that they didn't they

3278
03:02:45.559 --> 03:02:48.879
<v Speaker 3>never put up on the on the network, you know,

3279
03:02:49.040 --> 03:02:51.600
<v Speaker 3>home videos and and but like I don't care about

3280
03:02:51.600 --> 03:02:58.040
<v Speaker 3>these matches, like I don't care about fucking you know,

3281
03:02:59.600 --> 03:03:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Steve in RNL and Neville over else start us and

3282
03:03:02.799 --> 03:03:07.479
<v Speaker 3>King Barrett. Yeah a summer twenty fifteen, I don't care.

3283
03:03:08.079 --> 03:03:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Now they you know, as much credit as we give them,

3284
03:03:12.200 --> 03:03:15.399
<v Speaker 2>they still haven't taken the most basic suggestion, which is

3285
03:03:16.000 --> 03:03:19.719
<v Speaker 2>you have to do chronologically complete years. You have to,

3286
03:03:20.200 --> 03:03:22.120
<v Speaker 2>there's no other way to do it and maximize the

3287
03:03:22.200 --> 03:03:26.200
<v Speaker 2>value of that content. You have to be the viewer.

3288
03:03:26.600 --> 03:03:29.639
<v Speaker 2>The customer has to be able to say, here's everything

3289
03:03:29.680 --> 03:03:32.639
<v Speaker 2>in the network from nineteen eighty four across all promotions.

3290
03:03:32.959 --> 03:03:33.719
<v Speaker 3>I agree.

3291
03:03:34.000 --> 03:03:35.959
<v Speaker 2>It used to be somewhat structured like that in the

3292
03:03:35.959 --> 03:03:38.120
<v Speaker 2>network days, though. You had to go collection to collection,

3293
03:03:38.159 --> 03:03:40.200
<v Speaker 2>which was, you know, not ideal, but that's what you

3294
03:03:40.239 --> 03:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>have to do. And any other way you want to

3295
03:03:42.360 --> 03:03:44.680
<v Speaker 2>chop and dice it up to make it all bite

3296
03:03:44.719 --> 03:03:47.760
<v Speaker 2>sized social content, jerk me off, whatever the fuck, you

3297
03:03:47.760 --> 03:03:50.319
<v Speaker 2>can go and do that, but the whole show has

3298
03:03:50.360 --> 03:03:52.399
<v Speaker 2>to rest somewhere if you really want to make the

3299
03:03:52.399 --> 03:03:55.959
<v Speaker 2>most money you can off this thing. And I'm not

3300
03:03:56.000 --> 03:03:58.639
<v Speaker 2>going to accept anything less. Yep, I'm not going to

3301
03:03:58.680 --> 03:04:02.000
<v Speaker 2>pretend these half measures from the are the full measure

3302
03:04:02.200 --> 03:04:05.440
<v Speaker 2>because we had it already. We had the full access

3303
03:04:05.520 --> 03:04:08.479
<v Speaker 2>to just about everything they had. So don't tell me

3304
03:04:08.520 --> 03:04:11.000
<v Speaker 2>it's not possible and not worth it. You already did it.

3305
03:04:11.000 --> 03:04:14.159
<v Speaker 2>It's there. It's done, it's digitized. Where is it? Where

3306
03:04:14.200 --> 03:04:16.280
<v Speaker 2>is it? And why is it at my fingertips right now?

3307
03:04:17.920 --> 03:04:21.239
<v Speaker 2>God damn assholes, It also says in this Verge article,

3308
03:04:21.239 --> 03:04:23.159
<v Speaker 2>as John Cena continues his final year of entering action

3309
03:04:23.280 --> 03:04:25.000
<v Speaker 2>for the company, a collection like the one below is

3310
03:04:25.000 --> 03:04:27.680
<v Speaker 2>guaranteed to rack up views. The edit is really raw

3311
03:04:27.719 --> 03:04:30.399
<v Speaker 2>and it's not a full in and out of each moment.

3312
03:04:30.840 --> 03:04:33.280
<v Speaker 2>Bray Band said, this is brave. Band must be someone involved.

3313
03:04:33.440 --> 03:04:35.000
<v Speaker 2>So we're hoping that sits on the channel for a

3314
03:04:35.040 --> 03:04:37.879
<v Speaker 2>while as Sena does this last run. So which videos,

3315
03:04:37.959 --> 03:04:45.159
<v Speaker 2>Neil asks will disappear? Brother, Yeah, exactly, exactly, yep. Amard

3316
03:04:45.239 --> 03:04:47.079
<v Speaker 2>asks wanted to post a question of the co chairs

3317
03:04:47.079 --> 03:04:51.360
<v Speaker 2>in the community. Has Roman now surpassed Sina? That's what

3318
03:04:52.120 --> 03:04:57.719
<v Speaker 2>in terms of impact stardom um? He says, there's a

3319
03:04:57.760 --> 03:04:59.159
<v Speaker 2>lot of kids whow up in the two thousands who

3320
03:04:59.159 --> 03:05:01.239
<v Speaker 2>think seen as the goat, which is a nonsensical opinion.

3321
03:05:01.360 --> 03:05:02.760
<v Speaker 2>The hill turn was way too late, and I'm sure

3322
03:05:02.799 --> 03:05:05.079
<v Speaker 2>we can blame Vince for that. Up until about twenty ten,

3323
03:05:05.079 --> 03:05:06.879
<v Speaker 2>when Seena had built enough equity to insist in the

3324
03:05:06.920 --> 03:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>heel turn, he was just too much of a yes man. Roman,

3325
03:05:09.159 --> 03:05:11.120
<v Speaker 2>on the other hand, told Vince, if you don't turn

3326
03:05:11.159 --> 03:05:13.120
<v Speaker 2>me heel, I'm done, and then went on to have

3327
03:05:13.399 --> 03:05:15.120
<v Speaker 2>a run for the ages. In my opinion, he has

3328
03:05:15.159 --> 03:05:17.399
<v Speaker 2>now surpassed Sena or he definitely will when all of

3329
03:05:17.399 --> 03:05:22.799
<v Speaker 2>a sudden done. What say you, folks, Uh, it's hard

3330
03:05:22.840 --> 03:05:30.920
<v Speaker 2>to say because Sina Sena has had such longevity and.

3331
03:05:33.079 --> 03:05:37.879
<v Speaker 3>You know, was God. I mean I would. I would.

3332
03:05:40.520 --> 03:05:45.159
<v Speaker 2>Wager that he has main evented more pay per views

3333
03:05:45.159 --> 03:05:49.799
<v Speaker 2>than anybody yep at this point. Yeah, just there was

3334
03:05:49.959 --> 03:05:51.440
<v Speaker 2>that many more to man event.

3335
03:05:51.760 --> 03:06:01.719
<v Speaker 3>I know, And but I don't like Roman. Yeah, I

3336
03:06:01.760 --> 03:06:02.040
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

3337
03:06:02.200 --> 03:06:07.239
<v Speaker 2>My answer to that question is yes, yeah, you yes, surpassed. Yes,

3338
03:06:08.479 --> 03:06:11.680
<v Speaker 2>Roman has surpassed Sena in terms of meaning something to

3339
03:06:11.719 --> 03:06:15.120
<v Speaker 2>the w W audience. I'm not saying that on every

3340
03:06:15.159 --> 03:06:21.000
<v Speaker 2>measure Roman outpaces Sena, but Roman made it matter almost

3341
03:06:21.440 --> 03:06:24.079
<v Speaker 2>two times as much as Johnson made it matter.

3342
03:06:24.600 --> 03:06:27.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I guess, I guess. Yeah. You know, when when

3343
03:06:27.600 --> 03:06:31.959
<v Speaker 3>push comes to shove, like Roman, Roman knew what he

3344
03:06:31.959 --> 03:06:37.639
<v Speaker 3>could do. Roman knew that he didn't need to be

3345
03:06:37.719 --> 03:06:41.319
<v Speaker 3>hated like legitimately hated by people. He knew that he

3346
03:06:41.360 --> 03:06:45.040
<v Speaker 3>could do something that meant something, and he.

3347
03:06:45.280 --> 03:06:47.799
<v Speaker 2>Know what he is. Did it He's a better professional

3348
03:06:47.840 --> 03:06:49.200
<v Speaker 2>wrestler than John cena Is.

3349
03:06:49.479 --> 03:06:50.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, for sure.

3350
03:06:50.159 --> 03:06:52.840
<v Speaker 2>And that was the question, and so that's my answer.

3351
03:06:53.200 --> 03:06:54.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I agree with you. I agree with you.

3352
03:06:54.879 --> 03:06:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking about his run made more money overall, more transformational,

3353
03:07:00.079 --> 03:07:03.120
<v Speaker 2>he was more fascinating to watch, more is stickier. He

3354
03:07:03.239 --> 03:07:08.559
<v Speaker 2>made all kinds of people, mostly a relatives, and he

3355
03:07:08.920 --> 03:07:12.959
<v Speaker 2>just made made it you feel locked in like you

3356
03:07:13.000 --> 03:07:16.840
<v Speaker 2>were watching a great be great With Sina, it was

3357
03:07:16.959 --> 03:07:18.600
<v Speaker 2>like you were watching a guy who's going to be

3358
03:07:18.639 --> 03:07:22.200
<v Speaker 2>remembered as great, kind of be somewhat less than great

3359
03:07:22.479 --> 03:07:24.760
<v Speaker 2>in any given moment, but you look at the totality

3360
03:07:24.760 --> 03:07:27.239
<v Speaker 2>and you realize there was greatness there. But night in

3361
03:07:27.239 --> 03:07:28.559
<v Speaker 2>and night out, it didn't feel great.

3362
03:07:29.120 --> 03:07:33.280
<v Speaker 3>But it's a weird thing now because because you know,

3363
03:07:33.399 --> 03:07:37.440
<v Speaker 3>there are people who when they became fans, he was

3364
03:07:37.520 --> 03:07:40.319
<v Speaker 3>the guy, right, and so it's a very it's a

3365
03:07:40.479 --> 03:07:42.959
<v Speaker 3>very you know he like that. We've heard that he

3366
03:07:43.079 --> 03:07:47.600
<v Speaker 3>was their Hulk Hogan And how do you it's tough

3367
03:07:47.600 --> 03:07:49.799
<v Speaker 3>to deal with. It's it's a very tough. It's tough

3368
03:07:49.840 --> 03:07:53.440
<v Speaker 3>to deal with, but it's also tough to kind of analyze,

3369
03:07:53.520 --> 03:07:56.639
<v Speaker 3>like how do you we as wrestling fans who have

3370
03:07:56.680 --> 03:08:00.760
<v Speaker 3>been fans since, you know, for you know, thirty plus years,

3371
03:08:01.600 --> 03:08:05.120
<v Speaker 3>we've seen more evolution in the business than people who

3372
03:08:05.120 --> 03:08:09.159
<v Speaker 3>started watching when they were kids in two thousand and six,

3373
03:08:09.680 --> 03:08:14.760
<v Speaker 3>seven whatever, and started watching during the peak of John

3374
03:08:14.799 --> 03:08:15.559
<v Speaker 3>Cena's years.

3375
03:08:16.000 --> 03:08:20.479
<v Speaker 2>And it's like and it's it's hilarious because they've seen

3376
03:08:20.639 --> 03:08:24.319
<v Speaker 2>very little evolution of the business. Yes, they've seen very

3377
03:08:24.319 --> 03:08:27.639
<v Speaker 2>little change. Oh Sena. Sena's run is chiefly characterized by

3378
03:08:27.719 --> 03:08:31.239
<v Speaker 2>WWE running in place. From an evolution standpoint, there was

3379
03:08:31.280 --> 03:08:36.239
<v Speaker 2>absolutely nothing that changed about their presentation during his run,

3380
03:08:36.399 --> 03:08:39.600
<v Speaker 2>right right. He redressed the set every two years, you know,

3381
03:08:39.760 --> 03:08:43.520
<v Speaker 2>and that was it added to new camera tricks. But

3382
03:08:43.559 --> 03:08:46.520
<v Speaker 2>it was so Vince was so patterned by that point,

3383
03:08:46.799 --> 03:08:49.479
<v Speaker 2>so patterned, and you know, it wasn't all bad. There

3384
03:08:49.520 --> 03:08:52.440
<v Speaker 2>were patterns that were good that helped them peak. WrestleMania's

3385
03:08:52.399 --> 03:08:55.520
<v Speaker 2>pretty brilliantly through that whole time. But my god, there

3386
03:08:55.559 --> 03:08:57.440
<v Speaker 2>is nothing you could point to that it was like wow.

3387
03:08:58.200 --> 03:09:00.639
<v Speaker 2>Before John Cena it was like this, and after John

3388
03:09:00.680 --> 03:09:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Cena was like this, Like no, it's all pretty much

3389
03:09:02.600 --> 03:09:04.920
<v Speaker 2>the same as when he first got belted up and

3390
03:09:05.239 --> 03:09:07.680
<v Speaker 2>became the guy that you know, took up all the

3391
03:09:07.680 --> 03:09:10.000
<v Speaker 2>oxygen Sina was. You know, he's just too cringe to

3392
03:09:10.079 --> 03:09:13.719
<v Speaker 2>any times. And Roman was cringed too when they were putty.

3393
03:09:13.799 --> 03:09:14.840
<v Speaker 2>So I'm not blaming Sena.

3394
03:09:15.040 --> 03:09:16.680
<v Speaker 3>But but but you know what, But the thing is,

3395
03:09:16.719 --> 03:09:23.959
<v Speaker 3>though I don't think see Roman wasn't cringe. Roman was

3396
03:09:24.000 --> 03:09:28.040
<v Speaker 3>made to be, so is John. Yeah, but John Cena, John,

3397
03:09:28.879 --> 03:09:32.680
<v Speaker 3>But look at Scena. Though Sena has the Sena right

3398
03:09:32.760 --> 03:09:37.840
<v Speaker 3>now has the ability to not be cringe, and he's

3399
03:09:37.840 --> 03:09:42.399
<v Speaker 3>still cringe. So I don't know if that's true or not.

3400
03:09:43.559 --> 03:09:45.440
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think, yes, he was given that, but

3401
03:09:45.479 --> 03:09:49.040
<v Speaker 3>I think he chose, he chose to not.

3402
03:09:49.719 --> 03:09:53.520
<v Speaker 2>He's irredeemably been altered. Yeah. Yeah, that the Sena who

3403
03:09:53.600 --> 03:09:56.440
<v Speaker 2>wasn't cringe that we had before he became the superhero,

3404
03:09:56.520 --> 03:09:58.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, the dug anomics, John Cena. We know we

3405
03:09:58.959 --> 03:10:01.079
<v Speaker 2>can go back to that. But he doesn't.

3406
03:10:01.639 --> 03:10:02.399
<v Speaker 3>He chooses not.

3407
03:10:02.520 --> 03:10:03.239
<v Speaker 2>He has the power to.

3408
03:10:04.079 --> 03:10:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so that's that's what's there.

3409
03:10:07.360 --> 03:10:09.360
<v Speaker 2>I think the he'll run decides it. Roman turns heel,

3410
03:10:09.440 --> 03:10:11.159
<v Speaker 2>lights the business on fire, creates some of the most

3411
03:10:11.200 --> 03:10:13.639
<v Speaker 2>memorable stuff we've seen it in a generation. Scena turns

3412
03:10:13.680 --> 03:10:15.319
<v Speaker 2>heel and all people are doing is wondering when he's

3413
03:10:15.319 --> 03:10:18.639
<v Speaker 2>gonna turn back babyface. That's uh. That says a lot

3414
03:10:18.719 --> 03:10:20.760
<v Speaker 2>right there in terms of who the better pro wrestler

3415
03:10:20.799 --> 03:10:21.479
<v Speaker 2>is between the two.

3416
03:10:22.200 --> 03:10:25.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right, and I agree with you.

3417
03:10:25.719 --> 03:10:28.120
<v Speaker 3>Roman is better. Yeah, Roman is better.

3418
03:10:28.239 --> 03:10:31.479
<v Speaker 2>That's the question, right, that's the answer. Richie has a.

3419
03:10:31.399 --> 03:10:33.200
<v Speaker 3>Great but I don't but like it was surpassing, what

3420
03:10:33.280 --> 03:10:34.399
<v Speaker 3>is that? I don't even know what it meant. By

3421
03:10:34.399 --> 03:10:35.879
<v Speaker 3>surpassing though, I don't know what.

3422
03:10:35.760 --> 03:10:37.840
<v Speaker 2>It means either, I can only assume he means in

3423
03:10:38.319 --> 03:10:41.479
<v Speaker 2>terms of going down as an impactful figure in WW history,

3424
03:10:42.079 --> 03:10:46.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, in terms of contributions and impact. And I

3425
03:10:46.920 --> 03:10:49.440
<v Speaker 2>still think Roman gets it, honestly, even if it was

3426
03:10:49.479 --> 03:10:52.360
<v Speaker 2>a shorter period of time, it was much more intense

3427
03:10:53.000 --> 03:10:58.479
<v Speaker 2>than Sina ever managed to create. Yeah, because I've seen it.

3428
03:10:58.520 --> 03:11:00.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, if you give scene as much time as

3429
03:11:00.159 --> 03:11:03.159
<v Speaker 2>Romans got to create that, the lasting impact he would

3430
03:11:03.159 --> 03:11:04.959
<v Speaker 2>have shipped the bed, it would have been a fart

3431
03:11:05.000 --> 03:11:08.120
<v Speaker 2>in church, you know, there wouldn't have been that country

3432
03:11:08.440 --> 03:11:10.559
<v Speaker 2>been true to the Is it true to the the

3433
03:11:10.639 --> 03:11:13.120
<v Speaker 2>kids who grew up watching John Cena as their hull Coche?

3434
03:11:13.319 --> 03:11:15.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I can't speak to that. But I

3435
03:11:15.680 --> 03:11:18.760
<v Speaker 2>watched the whole thing and say what you will. But

3436
03:11:18.920 --> 03:11:21.799
<v Speaker 2>when hul Cogan was those kids hull Cogan, it mattered.

3437
03:11:22.040 --> 03:11:24.440
<v Speaker 2>When John Cena was those that kid's hull Cogan, it

3438
03:11:24.520 --> 03:11:27.360
<v Speaker 2>was cringe shit. And the shows every single week were

3439
03:11:27.360 --> 03:11:30.799
<v Speaker 2>predominantly about how people just were not with Sina, not

3440
03:11:30.920 --> 03:11:32.840
<v Speaker 2>with the presentation. And even though there were kids in

3441
03:11:32.879 --> 03:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>there trying to shout, you know, out shout the people

3442
03:11:36.360 --> 03:11:38.959
<v Speaker 2>that were creating the reactions that made it into the

3443
03:11:38.959 --> 03:11:42.399
<v Speaker 2>television microphones, that did not happen tohul Cogan until it

3444
03:11:42.440 --> 03:11:44.680
<v Speaker 2>was too late, and that did not happen in the

3445
03:11:44.760 --> 03:11:50.280
<v Speaker 2>reverse way to Roman. Even so, that's what I can say. Yeah,

3446
03:11:50.959 --> 03:11:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Richie says about Russev wondering if you could ask the

3447
03:11:53.520 --> 03:11:56.600
<v Speaker 2>boss man if my idea for av Rusev? Yeah he's back,

3448
03:11:57.879 --> 03:11:58.040
<v Speaker 2>is he?

3449
03:11:58.120 --> 03:11:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

3450
03:11:58.280 --> 03:12:00.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he came back like two months ago now. But

3451
03:12:00.280 --> 03:12:02.719
<v Speaker 2>that'll tell you a lot about how I'll tell you

3452
03:12:02.760 --> 03:12:05.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot about how I backtfully has there hasn't been,

3453
03:12:05.239 --> 03:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess there it is in the come Back to

3454
03:12:07.920 --> 03:12:11.760
<v Speaker 2>us AW repatriation program. Was wondering if you could ask

3455
03:12:11.799 --> 03:12:13.479
<v Speaker 2>the boss man if my idea for a faction name

3456
03:12:13.520 --> 03:12:15.399
<v Speaker 2>would be good. I think the mention of food seals

3457
03:12:15.399 --> 03:12:18.719
<v Speaker 2>it russev should helm an Eastern European faction called Beef

3458
03:12:18.799 --> 03:12:25.200
<v Speaker 2>strong enough. Yes, it's an endorsement, Yes, all right, yep, absolutely.

3459
03:12:25.239 --> 03:12:27.000
<v Speaker 2>I want to give a shout out to the aforementioned

3460
03:12:27.000 --> 03:12:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Ekmard for his generous pledge on Patreon. We hope you enjoy.

3461
03:12:32.120 --> 03:12:34.040
<v Speaker 2>Zach Clark, thank you very much for the cake on

3462
03:12:34.200 --> 03:12:38.079
<v Speaker 2>the tron. Spice boy, appreciate that increase in. Tony Hannon,

3463
03:12:38.120 --> 03:12:41.000
<v Speaker 2>thanks very much for the cake. Chris is out there

3464
03:12:41.000 --> 03:12:43.719
<v Speaker 2>paying close attention. This of course was way before Hulk's passing,

3465
03:12:44.000 --> 03:12:45.520
<v Speaker 2>but he says, what I can tell you with certainty

3466
03:12:45.520 --> 03:12:48.079
<v Speaker 2>about real American freestyle wrestling is that it ends up

3467
03:12:48.120 --> 03:12:52.200
<v Speaker 2>in a fucking hill of litigation and a Peter Teel

3468
03:12:52.280 --> 03:12:54.760
<v Speaker 2>finance pardon for the Hulkster. Well, not so much. Perhaps

3469
03:12:54.840 --> 03:12:58.719
<v Speaker 2>beyond the grave, a cynic might suggest. Hogan and Bischoff, See, yes,

3470
03:12:58.799 --> 03:13:01.680
<v Speaker 2>this whole thing is while the unregulated nial system is

3471
03:13:01.680 --> 03:13:05.280
<v Speaker 2>the last opportunity to get over another for personal gain. Yeah,

3472
03:13:05.319 --> 03:13:08.239
<v Speaker 2>and no reasonable person might foresee this ending, as did

3473
03:13:08.319 --> 03:13:12.719
<v Speaker 2>Houlgan and Bischoff's botched arbitrage foray into European video gambling. Yeah,

3474
03:13:12.760 --> 03:13:15.840
<v Speaker 2>I was ill fated. But let's review today's AP coverage

3475
03:13:15.840 --> 03:13:18.440
<v Speaker 2>and appreciate two matters of scale. First, the extent to

3476
03:13:18.440 --> 03:13:22.239
<v Speaker 2>which is a precise reprise of the TNH scam. Second

3477
03:13:22.280 --> 03:13:25.360
<v Speaker 2>to the sheer scope of physical beating this writer would

3478
03:13:25.399 --> 03:13:27.760
<v Speaker 2>sustain at the hands of the lapsed editor had he

3479
03:13:27.840 --> 03:13:31.040
<v Speaker 2>not recently accepted a buy out from his new VC overlords.

3480
03:13:31.520 --> 03:13:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Hulk Hogan felt. The article reads, the AP article reads.

3481
03:13:34.760 --> 03:13:37.520
<v Speaker 2>Hulk Hogan felt sure he was onto something. The idea

3482
03:13:37.639 --> 03:13:39.360
<v Speaker 2>was so exciting that I get a chance to be

3483
03:13:39.399 --> 03:13:41.799
<v Speaker 2>involved with all these young people and help guide them

3484
03:13:41.840 --> 03:13:43.959
<v Speaker 2>in any way, especially to make them huge stars and

3485
03:13:44.000 --> 03:13:46.479
<v Speaker 2>create a future for them. He said. People might be surprised,

3486
03:13:46.479 --> 03:13:50.120
<v Speaker 2>but wrestling is wrestling. Brother Eric jumped in with both feet,

3487
03:13:50.680 --> 03:13:52.879
<v Speaker 2>and he's doing a lot to guide this ship right now.

3488
03:13:52.920 --> 03:13:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Brother Hogan said, Oh my god, he's setting so much

3489
03:13:56.000 --> 03:13:59.120
<v Speaker 2>stuff up production wise, just moving us forward light years

3490
03:13:59.159 --> 03:14:00.799
<v Speaker 2>ahead of where we would have been on it could

3491
03:14:00.840 --> 03:14:02.799
<v Speaker 2>have been on her own. I see this as an

3492
03:14:02.799 --> 03:14:05.200
<v Speaker 2>opportunity for me to get involved, Hogan said, to get

3493
03:14:05.239 --> 03:14:07.680
<v Speaker 2>back sitting on the couch, to get involved with a

3494
03:14:07.719 --> 03:14:09.799
<v Speaker 2>bunch of powerful athletes that I can relate to as

3495
03:14:09.799 --> 03:14:12.239
<v Speaker 2>far as championship material, guys that are on top of

3496
03:14:12.280 --> 03:14:19.559
<v Speaker 2>their game, and I just I couldn't pass on it nauseated.

3497
03:14:19.079 --> 03:14:21.399
<v Speaker 3>Chris, could he pass away on it?

3498
03:14:21.680 --> 03:14:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes he did, And I don't know what the return

3499
03:14:24.760 --> 03:14:25.840
<v Speaker 2>is going to be like coming up to the end

3500
03:14:25.840 --> 03:14:28.479
<v Speaker 2>of August for this event. But that is the exact

3501
03:14:29.000 --> 03:14:31.520
<v Speaker 2>thing he used to say in TNA to the exact playbucket.

3502
03:14:31.559 --> 03:14:35.959
<v Speaker 2>Really is my God help us. You and Taylor, thank

3503
03:14:35.959 --> 03:14:40.879
<v Speaker 2>you very much for the pledge. We appreciate it. Okay,

3504
03:14:41.000 --> 03:14:44.399
<v Speaker 2>let's see wrapping up here, dragging Puncher, thank you very

3505
03:14:44.479 --> 03:14:47.600
<v Speaker 2>much for the cake. William wants to know. Wants us

3506
03:14:47.639 --> 03:14:50.399
<v Speaker 2>to know that he was listening while molling his lawn

3507
03:14:50.399 --> 03:14:54.440
<v Speaker 2>this afternoon. His neighbor's daughter was leaving for prom. This

3508
03:14:54.479 --> 03:14:57.719
<v Speaker 2>is while he was listening to Blockers. Oh my god,

3509
03:14:58.159 --> 03:14:59.879
<v Speaker 2>her dad walked her out to the car and stood

3510
03:15:00.079 --> 03:15:03.639
<v Speaker 2>the front yard after she left, almost hyperventilating. And that

3511
03:15:03.760 --> 03:15:06.559
<v Speaker 2>is very much like the John Cena Will Ferrell comedy.

3512
03:15:06.399 --> 03:15:08.879
<v Speaker 3>Because no, no, not Will Ferrell.

3513
03:15:10.520 --> 03:15:15.360
<v Speaker 2>John Al Ferrell is the one with what's his face with? Yeah,

3514
03:15:15.360 --> 03:15:18.799
<v Speaker 2>with the fucking rock and Sam Jackson jump off the gud.

3515
03:15:21.120 --> 03:15:24.079
<v Speaker 3>That's still the greatest fucking thing for honest to God, ever,

3516
03:15:24.159 --> 03:15:27.840
<v Speaker 3>it's such a great it's such a great idea great

3517
03:15:28.040 --> 03:15:32.840
<v Speaker 3>shot and so funny. No, but John Cena and Uh

3518
03:15:32.920 --> 03:15:37.639
<v Speaker 3>Leslie Mann and Ike Ike Uh his name.

3519
03:15:39.879 --> 03:15:45.520
<v Speaker 2>Exactly, Hike Eisenhower, I think on Frog. Thank you very

3520
03:15:45.600 --> 03:15:50.159
<v Speaker 2>much for your pledge on Patreon. We love it. Christopher

3521
03:15:50.159 --> 03:15:52.040
<v Speaker 2>says you dipped into why Scena comes across the quote

3522
03:15:52.120 --> 03:15:53.879
<v Speaker 2>unquote weird and for a long time I have just

3523
03:15:53.920 --> 03:15:58.799
<v Speaker 2>accepted he likely has o CPD obsessive controlsive compulsive personality disorder.

3524
03:15:59.120 --> 03:16:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Not a bad thing to be a just many observations

3525
03:16:01.040 --> 03:16:02.840
<v Speaker 2>I've made over the years. I find him fascinating as

3526
03:16:02.840 --> 03:16:05.280
<v Speaker 2>a person. I agree he might he might have that.

3527
03:16:06.399 --> 03:16:07.959
<v Speaker 2>I agree. I mean the way he comes off on

3528
03:16:08.040 --> 03:16:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Total Diva is like that. He doesn't even try to

3529
03:16:09.719 --> 03:16:13.120
<v Speaker 2>hide it for the cameras. This big time tell uh

3530
03:16:13.159 --> 03:16:15.760
<v Speaker 2>the enforcer paul'slicky. Thank you very much for your recent

3531
03:16:15.760 --> 03:16:18.040
<v Speaker 2>increase in pledge. We love it. Andrew. We appreciate you

3532
03:16:18.120 --> 03:16:22.239
<v Speaker 2>joining us up there. On the Executive Producer Tier, DJ

3533
03:16:22.280 --> 03:16:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Smittie writes, Hey, chat Sina, what tips can you share?

3534
03:16:24.680 --> 03:16:28.040
<v Speaker 2>That helped you learn how to play piano. Answer. I

3535
03:16:28.200 --> 03:16:30.559
<v Speaker 2>genuinely wanted to learn how to play piano, and then

3536
03:16:30.600 --> 03:16:32.479
<v Speaker 2>I did and I became great at it.

3537
03:16:36.879 --> 03:16:39.799
<v Speaker 3>Oh he fucking talked about like that.

3538
03:16:41.000 --> 03:16:44.319
<v Speaker 2>He's that in that interview, in that weird interview where

3539
03:16:44.319 --> 03:16:48.319
<v Speaker 2>he like he you know, oh God, listen to him.

3540
03:16:48.200 --> 03:16:49.520
<v Speaker 3>Talk is so nice Obvia.

3541
03:16:49.799 --> 03:16:53.840
<v Speaker 2>So it's you can only take very small doses of it.

3542
03:16:53.840 --> 03:16:58.440
<v Speaker 2>It's so like, you know, he he he acts like

3543
03:16:59.159 --> 03:17:02.239
<v Speaker 2>he acts like the way he.

3544
03:17:04.120 --> 03:17:05.239
<v Speaker 3>It's it's almost like.

3545
03:17:05.200 --> 03:17:07.159
<v Speaker 2>He thinks he's dispensing wisdom all the time.

3546
03:17:07.520 --> 03:17:10.399
<v Speaker 3>Well, well that, but he also comes across like he

3547
03:17:10.479 --> 03:17:14.079
<v Speaker 3>doesn't almost understand, like it's so easy to do this.

3548
03:17:14.639 --> 03:17:16.639
<v Speaker 3>It's so easy to be great things if you just

3549
03:17:16.680 --> 03:17:19.159
<v Speaker 3>do what I do. And it's like, do you understand

3550
03:17:19.239 --> 03:17:23.239
<v Speaker 3>you're crazy? Like you're you're you You're one of those

3551
03:17:23.280 --> 03:17:26.559
<v Speaker 3>people who are just who's insane and can just kind

3552
03:17:26.559 --> 03:17:29.559
<v Speaker 3>of drop whatever they're doing to focus on one thing

3553
03:17:29.680 --> 03:17:32.280
<v Speaker 3>for like three weeks and get great at it. And

3554
03:17:32.360 --> 03:17:35.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm not listening. I'm not criticized. I think that's great.

3555
03:17:36.120 --> 03:17:38.479
<v Speaker 3>I wish more people could be like that, but most

3556
03:17:38.520 --> 03:17:40.959
<v Speaker 3>people aren't like that. He's he's you know what he is,

3557
03:17:41.000 --> 03:17:44.120
<v Speaker 3>he's childless. I mean that that's what Randy or hit

3558
03:17:44.200 --> 03:17:45.879
<v Speaker 3>him with, right well, Andy Orton hit him with that

3559
03:17:45.959 --> 03:17:47.840
<v Speaker 3>on one of the promos leading up their backlash match.

3560
03:17:47.879 --> 03:17:51.479
<v Speaker 2>And it's the truth, really there, You know, there's no

3561
03:17:52.559 --> 03:17:55.440
<v Speaker 2>We should always be very careful if we want to

3562
03:17:55.600 --> 03:18:00.440
<v Speaker 2>be fathers or mothers in this life, patterning ourselves at all,

3563
03:18:00.559 --> 03:18:05.040
<v Speaker 2>or taking any lifestyle advice or taking or modeling ourselves

3564
03:18:05.040 --> 03:18:07.079
<v Speaker 2>at all after people who don't have kids, because that

3565
03:18:07.200 --> 03:18:08.760
<v Speaker 2>is ninety percent of the reason they are the way

3566
03:18:08.760 --> 03:18:11.879
<v Speaker 2>they are, right right, come on, folks, give me fucking

3567
03:18:12.120 --> 03:18:15.719
<v Speaker 2>I listen, and I you know again, I'm not I don't.

3568
03:18:16.120 --> 03:18:18.680
<v Speaker 2>I think I've said this before. My therapist tells me

3569
03:18:18.760 --> 03:18:23.520
<v Speaker 2>this all the time that she she says that that's

3570
03:18:23.600 --> 03:18:27.200
<v Speaker 2>the last stage of becoming an adult, is having kids,

3571
03:18:27.600 --> 03:18:31.280
<v Speaker 2>and that there are people who don't ever achieve that stage. Yes,

3572
03:18:31.360 --> 03:18:33.639
<v Speaker 2>like you don't actually grow up. Like if you don't

3573
03:18:33.639 --> 03:18:37.399
<v Speaker 2>have kids, you never actually complete growing up. I think

3574
03:18:37.399 --> 03:18:40.000
<v Speaker 2>it's very hard to say you did. Absolutely agree.

3575
03:18:40.200 --> 03:18:45.280
<v Speaker 3>I think so too, because because because having children requires

3576
03:18:46.360 --> 03:18:51.760
<v Speaker 3>giving up some like releasing so much of what you

3577
03:18:53.559 --> 03:18:56.680
<v Speaker 3>want for yourself. That's right, that's right, in order to

3578
03:18:57.120 --> 03:19:01.479
<v Speaker 3>give it instead to your children, that's right. Ungrateful fucks.

3579
03:19:02.040 --> 03:19:06.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know, and they'll never show the appropriate gratitude.

3580
03:19:06.440 --> 03:19:08.600
<v Speaker 3>Until they have kids. I mean, how many times I've

3581
03:19:08.840 --> 03:19:11.520
<v Speaker 3>how many times I've apologized to my dad and said, man,

3582
03:19:11.719 --> 03:19:13.920
<v Speaker 3>there you go. I never realized how much of a

3583
03:19:13.959 --> 03:19:14.959
<v Speaker 3>dick I was you.

3584
03:19:15.719 --> 03:19:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's it's absolute truth, and it's it's it's

3585
03:19:19.319 --> 03:19:21.479
<v Speaker 2>just a different perspective. It's like, if you don't have

3586
03:19:21.520 --> 03:19:24.879
<v Speaker 2>that perspective, it's like, you know, we're not we're not

3587
03:19:24.920 --> 03:19:26.639
<v Speaker 2>speaking the same language. We're just not.

3588
03:19:26.719 --> 03:19:30.399
<v Speaker 3>And again I'm not I'm not judging anybody, but it's literally,

3589
03:19:30.479 --> 03:19:37.840
<v Speaker 3>it's literally, it's completely a world you just you can

3590
03:19:37.959 --> 03:19:40.680
<v Speaker 3>never understand until you live through.

3591
03:19:40.760 --> 03:19:43.440
<v Speaker 2>I think that's true. Yeah, because you don't know yourself yet.

3592
03:19:43.479 --> 03:19:45.440
<v Speaker 2>You don't know that part of yourself. It doesn't come

3593
03:19:45.479 --> 03:19:49.360
<v Speaker 2>out until you're in that position. You haven't accessed it.

3594
03:19:49.399 --> 03:19:51.559
<v Speaker 2>You don't know who you are as a parent. You

3595
03:19:51.600 --> 03:19:52.479
<v Speaker 2>have no clue.

3596
03:19:52.719 --> 03:19:57.639
<v Speaker 3>Until until you're until you are until you have to

3597
03:19:57.680 --> 03:20:00.840
<v Speaker 3>wake up five times in the middle of the night

3598
03:20:02.799 --> 03:20:09.079
<v Speaker 3>and tried so desperately to feed your child, yes, feed

3599
03:20:09.120 --> 03:20:14.280
<v Speaker 3>your infant, until like as fast as possible, because if

3600
03:20:14.319 --> 03:20:17.600
<v Speaker 3>you don't, if you don't do it fast enough and

3601
03:20:17.639 --> 03:20:21.799
<v Speaker 3>get them back to sleep fast enough, you're not going

3602
03:20:21.840 --> 03:20:24.799
<v Speaker 3>back to sleep, correct. And that's the thing.

3603
03:20:24.879 --> 03:20:26.920
<v Speaker 2>A guy like John Cena can't do that because he's

3604
03:20:27.239 --> 03:20:29.280
<v Speaker 2>got to go to the fucking he's done eighteen hour.

3605
03:20:29.200 --> 03:20:31.920
<v Speaker 3>Day, right, and he had got to and listen like

3606
03:20:31.959 --> 03:20:34.159
<v Speaker 3>because because you know what, because here's the thing, because

3607
03:20:34.200 --> 03:20:38.239
<v Speaker 3>nobody who's had his fucking career and lifestyle ever has kids, right,

3608
03:20:39.120 --> 03:20:40.159
<v Speaker 3>there are a million people.

3609
03:20:40.280 --> 03:20:43.239
<v Speaker 2>But that's to your point, that's why he's so over

3610
03:20:43.360 --> 03:20:45.440
<v Speaker 2>the top, right, you know, with what he can do

3611
03:20:45.879 --> 03:20:48.920
<v Speaker 2>exactly because he doesn't have that at any point, right,

3612
03:20:48.959 --> 03:20:50.440
<v Speaker 2>because he can just worry about himself.

3613
03:20:51.440 --> 03:20:53.399
<v Speaker 3>I mean that means that too he looks selfish.

3614
03:20:54.000 --> 03:20:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean he's very straightforward about that. But you

3615
03:20:58.079 --> 03:21:01.040
<v Speaker 2>know he thinks he thinks makes it a virtue. Well okay, but.

3616
03:21:02.280 --> 03:21:05.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean no, it's I'll tell you it's a it's

3617
03:21:05.040 --> 03:21:08.040
<v Speaker 3>a it's a it's only a virtue to those who

3618
03:21:08.120 --> 03:21:12.200
<v Speaker 3>can share it with his lifestyle, right exactly. Anybody else

3619
03:21:12.920 --> 03:21:16.959
<v Speaker 3>Just fuck off, dude, Just fuck off your piano playing.

3620
03:21:17.200 --> 03:21:20.680
<v Speaker 3>Just walk off a bridge.

3621
03:21:22.040 --> 03:21:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Personal growth yeah, okay.

3622
03:21:24.440 --> 03:21:26.360
<v Speaker 3>See I think what we can do together?

3623
03:21:26.520 --> 03:21:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh god, no, I can't. It's a very simple thing.

3624
03:21:30.719 --> 03:21:35.000
<v Speaker 2>All you have to do is just take the time.

3625
03:21:36.040 --> 03:21:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Make the time stop, make the time, do it yourself,

3626
03:21:38.879 --> 03:21:43.159
<v Speaker 2>make the time. We don't have time. There's no time

3627
03:21:43.200 --> 03:21:46.440
<v Speaker 2>to make it. Dumbas, but I don't tell that if

3628
03:21:46.440 --> 03:21:47.959
<v Speaker 2>you want to sleep. Don't tell if you want to

3629
03:21:47.959 --> 03:21:51.280
<v Speaker 2>sleep exactly exactly, if you're willing to give up some

<v Speaker 2>the table via Patreon for your co chair since the

3644
03:22:56.360 --> 03:22:59.040
<v Speaker 2>last time we were with you. In the mailbag, Austin

3645
03:22:59.200 --> 03:23:01.440
<v Speaker 2>writes in honor of seen A breaking the record for

3646

3647
03:23:04.319 --> 03:23:08.760
<v Speaker 2>beer funnel stuck up his ass and blockers. How marked

3648
03:23:08.799 --> 03:23:14.079
<v Speaker 2>the occasion under the cinemat How about when Dom wins

3649
03:23:14.079 --> 03:23:16.440
<v Speaker 2>the Icy title at WrestleMania. You're gonna tell me that's

3650
03:23:16.479 --> 03:23:20.559
<v Speaker 2>not worth your Patreon dollar. James Wright's listening to the

3651
03:23:20.559 --> 03:23:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Boss on the live call of Dom winning the Icy

3652
03:23:22.680 --> 03:23:26.319
<v Speaker 2>belt knowing what was to come, was incredible. Boss. You

3653
03:23:26.319 --> 03:23:28.639
<v Speaker 2>should hear some of the reactions this guy's getting, especially

3654
03:23:28.680 --> 03:23:32.079
<v Speaker 2>with the triple A. I just saw this video being

3655
03:23:32.239 --> 03:23:35.399
<v Speaker 2>vindicated on Dom, Like, you don't believe this guy's gonna

3656
03:23:35.399 --> 03:23:37.040
<v Speaker 2>be the biggest heel in the business.

3657
03:23:37.479 --> 03:23:45.399
<v Speaker 3>Yep, he's gonna be massive. He is. He is, He's brilliant.

3658
03:23:45.680 --> 03:23:47.559
<v Speaker 2>He's a brilliant and I never really it didn't sing

3659
03:23:47.600 --> 03:23:50.120
<v Speaker 2>game with me, but like that bilingual stuff like his

3660
03:23:50.280 --> 03:23:54.000
<v Speaker 2>understanding the Luca mentality and his dad's stature in that world. Like, God,

3661
03:23:54.040 --> 03:23:56.399
<v Speaker 2>he's gonna be like a multi lingual star. You can

3662
03:23:56.440 --> 03:23:58.639
<v Speaker 2>do so much with this kid. And look at his

3663
03:23:58.799 --> 03:24:01.559
<v Speaker 2>mustache and look at his hair. Oh I look at

3664
03:24:01.559 --> 03:24:02.360
<v Speaker 2>the look on his face.

3665
03:24:03.120 --> 03:24:07.399
<v Speaker 3>There is there is nobody in this current age who

3666
03:24:07.440 --> 03:24:13.399
<v Speaker 3>I approve of the mustache other than Dom.

3667
03:24:13.719 --> 03:24:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Look at the man.

3668
03:24:15.159 --> 03:24:15.920
<v Speaker 3>He's just brilliant.

3669
03:24:15.959 --> 03:24:20.479
<v Speaker 2>He's brilliant. He's brilliant. Everything he does brilliant.

3670
03:24:20.639 --> 03:24:21.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he is.

3671
03:24:21.559 --> 03:24:23.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's it's just a fucking he's just he's

3672
03:24:24.200 --> 03:24:28.239
<v Speaker 2>he's he's spectacular. It's funny going back and looking at

3673
03:24:28.239 --> 03:24:30.920
<v Speaker 2>all the WrestleMania comments about how cringe Travis Scott was

3674
03:24:30.959 --> 03:24:33.959
<v Speaker 2>and now it totally fell apart with him in WWE.

3675
03:24:34.000 --> 03:24:36.360
<v Speaker 2>He was not interested in putting in the work at all.

3676
03:24:36.879 --> 03:24:39.479
<v Speaker 2>So that WrestleMania main event finish is going to go

3677
03:24:39.479 --> 03:24:42.680
<v Speaker 2>down is even more pathetic, not just because Rock couldn't

3678
03:24:42.719 --> 03:24:45.040
<v Speaker 2>grace it with his presence because he saw the ship

3679
03:24:45.079 --> 03:24:47.120
<v Speaker 2>show was going to be, but the fact that Travis

3680
03:24:47.159 --> 03:24:50.840
<v Speaker 2>Scott went nowhere and they wasted that WrestleMania main event

3681
03:24:50.879 --> 03:24:53.200
<v Speaker 2>real estate on somebody who wasn't even going to show

3682
03:24:53.280 --> 03:24:55.680
<v Speaker 2>up again. Yep, it's going to be a real sad flow.

3683
03:24:56.360 --> 03:25:03.319
<v Speaker 3>So it's it's continuing to really just completely obliterate this

3684
03:25:03.440 --> 03:25:06.600
<v Speaker 3>John Scena heel turn. Yes, correct, all right, it's continuing

3685
03:25:06.639 --> 03:25:08.159
<v Speaker 3>to be a complete fucking joke.

3686
03:25:08.239 --> 03:25:09.719
<v Speaker 2>I think that's part of what we're going to see

3687
03:25:09.760 --> 03:25:13.120
<v Speaker 2>when we hit Comedy Village between nights one to two

3688
03:25:13.200 --> 03:25:14.879
<v Speaker 2>is we're going to look to that night Summer Slam

3689
03:25:14.879 --> 03:25:17.440
<v Speaker 2>and be like, you know what, guys experiment over. I

3690
03:25:17.479 --> 03:25:19.479
<v Speaker 2>look forward to chopping up with the Solar System members

3691
03:25:19.479 --> 03:25:21.959
<v Speaker 2>who join us in terms of how closely we've been

3692
03:25:22.559 --> 03:25:24.239
<v Speaker 2>watching the scene of hill Turn and what does and

3693
03:25:24.280 --> 03:25:26.239
<v Speaker 2>doesn't work, because we may very well be marking the

3694
03:25:26.319 --> 03:25:28.520
<v Speaker 2>end of it in New York City for all intents

3695
03:25:28.520 --> 03:25:30.040
<v Speaker 2>and purposes coming up at SummerSlam.

3696
03:25:30.440 --> 03:25:33.399
<v Speaker 3>Scott, I did. I have seen some things where people

3697
03:25:33.479 --> 03:25:36.719
<v Speaker 3>talk like there's there's there's to do something, some talk

3698
03:25:36.840 --> 03:25:39.280
<v Speaker 3>that that it's going to end, that the heel turn

3699
03:25:39.319 --> 03:25:40.440
<v Speaker 3>is going to end at SummerSlam.

3700
03:25:40.680 --> 03:25:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Really funny as people don't think that that was the

3701
03:25:42.680 --> 03:25:43.479
<v Speaker 2>plan all along.

3702
03:25:43.760 --> 03:25:46.559
<v Speaker 3>Oh right, And of course, of course I forgot about that.

3703
03:25:46.639 --> 03:25:48.520
<v Speaker 3>I forgot that. I forgot that this was the plan

3704
03:25:48.600 --> 03:25:50.520
<v Speaker 3>three years ago, right, what we do.

3705
03:25:50.360 --> 03:25:53.959
<v Speaker 2>That's right, And what we do is deliver, you know,

3706
03:25:55.040 --> 03:25:58.399
<v Speaker 2>on stories, and that's well.

3707
03:25:58.920 --> 03:26:01.680
<v Speaker 3>We deliver on story based entertainment.

3708
03:26:04.399 --> 03:26:07.159
<v Speaker 2>That's true. I mean, how canna fault you for that comment?

3709
03:26:07.239 --> 03:26:12.440
<v Speaker 3>No, listen r R. The way we entertain is based

3710
03:26:12.760 --> 03:26:14.120
<v Speaker 3>primarily on story.

3711
03:26:14.360 --> 03:26:16.479
<v Speaker 2>And Scott Michael Ferry is speaking of New York. Oh shit,

3712
03:26:16.600 --> 03:26:18.079
<v Speaker 2>sounds like there may need to be a mote tear

3713
03:26:18.120 --> 03:26:22.719
<v Speaker 2>pilgrimage to the New York Golden Steer. Oh yeah, popped

3714
03:26:22.879 --> 03:26:26.239
<v Speaker 2>me plugging the cream corn. He remembers the vague yeah,

3715
03:26:26.399 --> 03:26:30.399
<v Speaker 2>oh are you excited? Oh, I'm very excited. I keep

3716
03:26:30.440 --> 03:26:32.079
<v Speaker 2>I go to the website like once a week to

3717
03:26:32.120 --> 03:26:35.120
<v Speaker 2>see if they have a fucking date yet for the

3718
03:26:35.159 --> 03:26:38.600
<v Speaker 2>New York Steer. William back in the Mania days, I

3719
03:26:38.600 --> 03:26:40.600
<v Speaker 2>didn't watch the mains. I listened to that fucking cast,

3720
03:26:40.959 --> 03:26:42.600
<v Speaker 2>but I was watching the raw after with my wife,

3721
03:26:42.639 --> 03:26:45.159
<v Speaker 2>who also was lapsed. She watched WCW with her grandmother

3722
03:26:45.159 --> 03:26:47.520
<v Speaker 2>and went to a thunder taping, so she qualifies anyway.

3723
03:26:47.559 --> 03:26:49.680
<v Speaker 2>The highlights from Cody were playing, and she happened to

3724
03:26:49.680 --> 03:26:51.040
<v Speaker 2>look up from her phone when the shot of the

3725
03:26:51.040 --> 03:26:53.559
<v Speaker 2>skull helmet came up, and she said, with all lapsedness,

3726
03:26:54.040 --> 03:26:56.520
<v Speaker 2>what the fuck does he have on his head? Exactly

3727
03:26:56.680 --> 03:27:00.280
<v Speaker 2>that's exactly right. And William also has a helpful suggestion

3728
03:27:00.479 --> 03:27:02.680
<v Speaker 2>WW needs to hire Kevin von Eric to come out

3729
03:27:02.680 --> 03:27:05.879
<v Speaker 2>and shoot down a drone and have him say I'm sorry, dude,

3730
03:27:05.959 --> 03:27:07.520
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was a quail.

3731
03:27:09.479 --> 03:27:09.799
<v Speaker 4>Fuck.

3732
03:27:10.200 --> 03:27:12.079
<v Speaker 2>Steve says, just a follow up on the ground here

3733
03:27:12.079 --> 03:27:15.120
<v Speaker 2>in Vegas, Dom was hands down the most over guy tonight.

3734
03:27:16.079 --> 03:27:18.719
<v Speaker 2>People were chanting dirty Dom as they left the arena.

3735
03:27:20.920 --> 03:27:24.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't see how this is a surprise to anybody.

3736
03:27:24.600 --> 03:27:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you listen to us, it wasn't. Evan uh

3737
03:27:27.920 --> 03:27:31.399
<v Speaker 2>says back then, can't wait for that Travis Scott program. Brother,

3738
03:27:32.000 --> 03:27:35.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm reminded why I'm a fucking moron for watching this shit,

3739
03:27:37.319 --> 03:27:39.719
<v Speaker 2>watching flair funk to stop me from pulling the trigger,

3740
03:27:39.799 --> 03:27:43.559
<v Speaker 2>he says. Fucking Pap says scene attorney during the match

3741
03:27:43.559 --> 03:27:45.239
<v Speaker 2>makes so much more sense, and I would put money

3742
03:27:45.239 --> 03:27:47.440
<v Speaker 2>behind that being the original plan. Okay, now I'm gonna

3743
03:27:47.479 --> 03:27:50.159
<v Speaker 2>call that. I think I saved this for something else

3744
03:27:50.200 --> 03:27:53.079
<v Speaker 2>that he said, Uh yeah, And I think this needs

3745
03:27:53.120 --> 03:27:55.559
<v Speaker 2>to be kept in mind whenever people wonder what it

3746
03:27:55.600 --> 03:27:58.520
<v Speaker 2>is exactly they get for their Patreon dollar. He writes,

3747
03:27:58.559 --> 03:28:01.159
<v Speaker 2>there's something magical about waiting until the next day to

3748
03:28:01.159 --> 03:28:04.799
<v Speaker 2>watch Mania in sync with the live call Yeo Sky,

3749
03:28:04.879 --> 03:28:08.200
<v Speaker 2>making her entrance clearly emotional, screaming her heart out. Boss,

3750
03:28:08.239 --> 03:28:11.440
<v Speaker 2>What does he say at this moment? There was ham

3751
03:28:11.840 --> 03:28:26.000
<v Speaker 2>and lamb. I can't imagine what was because it was Easter.

3752
03:28:26.520 --> 03:28:27.440
<v Speaker 3>It was Easter weekend.

3753
03:28:27.559 --> 03:28:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, we were talking about where we had

3754
03:28:29.840 --> 03:28:31.799
<v Speaker 2>at Easter and there was ham and Lamb. It's true,

3755
03:28:31.959 --> 03:28:34.479
<v Speaker 2>Justin writes Toerco Chairs, I hope you and your families

3756
03:28:34.639 --> 03:28:37.360
<v Speaker 2>had a blessed Easter. Quick story only select fuel appreciate.

3757
03:28:37.600 --> 03:28:39.399
<v Speaker 2>I went to my new widowed aunts house for Easter

3758
03:28:39.520 --> 03:28:41.600
<v Speaker 2>this year. She lives a bit away, so again the

3759
03:28:41.639 --> 03:28:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Mania mood. I listened to the TLF, seen a special

3760
03:28:43.559 --> 03:28:45.280
<v Speaker 2>report on the way. When I arrived at my aunt's

3761
03:28:45.280 --> 03:28:47.799
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday afternoon, her house was about ninety degrees because

3762
03:28:47.840 --> 03:28:49.959
<v Speaker 2>it was eighty and Jersey and she never is out

3763
03:28:50.120 --> 03:28:52.040
<v Speaker 2>on the air on that doesn't have the air on

3764
03:28:52.200 --> 03:28:54.040
<v Speaker 2>or open a window because she's old and gets cold.

3765
03:28:54.280 --> 03:28:56.319
<v Speaker 2>After some family fun, I smoked a bowl and settled

3766
03:28:56.360 --> 03:28:58.680
<v Speaker 2>in on Mania Night one, about an hour into the show.

3767
03:28:58.760 --> 03:29:01.239
<v Speaker 2>My sister comes in the room, thinking out loud and

3768
03:29:01.319 --> 03:29:03.760
<v Speaker 2>rhetorically says to my mom, what are we gonna do

3769
03:29:03.799 --> 03:29:08.319
<v Speaker 2>about this heat? Naturally, I sprung into action, looked at

3770
03:29:08.319 --> 03:29:13.079
<v Speaker 2>her and said, whoa, brother, let's dial this back. Who

3771
03:29:13.079 --> 03:29:16.120
<v Speaker 2>you been talking to? That this happens in real American

3772
03:29:16.159 --> 03:29:17.360
<v Speaker 2>living rooms because of us?

3773
03:29:18.079 --> 03:29:18.360
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

3774
03:29:18.440 --> 03:29:20.399
<v Speaker 2>She looked at me with utter disgust and said, what

3775
03:29:20.440 --> 03:29:21.799
<v Speaker 2>the fuck are you even talking about?

3776
03:29:21.799 --> 03:29:22.079
<v Speaker 3>You eat?

3777
03:29:22.239 --> 03:29:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, yea. I try to explain. She just walked away.

3778
03:29:26.399 --> 03:29:28.760
<v Speaker 2>She'll never know the pain. And what an absolute fuck

3779
03:29:28.799 --> 03:29:31.000
<v Speaker 2>was the ending of Sina Cody. Yes, you guys are

3780

3783
03:29:42.120 --> 03:29:44.520
<v Speaker 2>can we get an indie wrestler to use Philip Glass

3784
03:29:44.520 --> 03:29:46.520
<v Speaker 2>as their walkout music so we can get clean as

03:30:04.360 --> 03:30:06.520
<v Speaker 3>would love it if there was a faction called Kotzi

3791
03:30:07.840 --> 03:30:10.000
<v Speaker 3>and then there was like there was one who was

3792
03:30:10.200 --> 03:30:12.840
<v Speaker 3>like you had kis, you had power and he had not,

3793
03:30:15.079 --> 03:30:19.239
<v Speaker 3>all right, and that's it's just like that's the name.

3794
03:30:19.360 --> 03:30:22.200
<v Speaker 3>Then that there, that's their faction name is Kotzi.

3795
03:30:25.520 --> 03:30:31.520
<v Speaker 2>I can imagine if you can get behind that. I

3796
03:30:31.559 --> 03:30:36.440
<v Speaker 2>think that would be like so absolutely fucking insane and

3797
03:30:36.520 --> 03:30:40.239
<v Speaker 2>fucking fucking like godfre Reggio. I don't even know if

3798
03:30:40.239 --> 03:30:42.200
<v Speaker 2>he's dead or not, but he's like, what the fuck

3799
03:30:42.520 --> 03:30:47.120
<v Speaker 2>is what the yeah, he's still He's still. God, he's

3800
03:30:47.559 --> 03:30:50.799
<v Speaker 2>a mess, but he's still alive. Like he's like what

3801
03:30:52.399 --> 03:30:53.079
<v Speaker 2>good imitation?

3802
03:30:55.360 --> 03:30:55.799
<v Speaker 3>Totally?

3803
03:30:56.079 --> 03:30:59.239
<v Speaker 2>Carlos says, based on Mike Tyson's contribution to the forever

3804
03:30:59.280 --> 03:31:01.840
<v Speaker 2>chaining My Night worst rating swing in January ninety eight,

3805
03:31:02.040 --> 03:31:03.719
<v Speaker 2>could you find it in your hearts to cover the

3806
03:31:03.760 --> 03:31:07.040
<v Speaker 2>baddest man on the planet? Considerable criteria being his available

3807
03:31:07.040 --> 03:31:09.360
<v Speaker 2>on YouTube and the best sports documentary ever made Fox

3808
03:31:09.399 --> 03:31:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Beyond the Glory, and several really bad made for TV movies.

3809
03:31:12.280 --> 03:31:15.239
<v Speaker 2>His cameo in The Hangover All that Teddy fucking Atlas

3810
03:31:15.280 --> 03:31:17.440
<v Speaker 2>is the Bruce Hard the Beyond the Glory of the

3811
03:31:17.559 --> 03:31:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Beyond the Glory, the Jake Palm Netflix Tobacle. I'd start

3812
03:31:20.959 --> 03:31:22.760
<v Speaker 2>the bidding at one hundred dollars if such a bidding

3813
03:31:22.760 --> 03:31:26.319
<v Speaker 2>process exists for the greatest duo to ever cover Carnie

3814
03:31:26.319 --> 03:31:29.479
<v Speaker 2>bullshit and sometimes real stuff. I realized that Under the

3815
03:31:29.479 --> 03:31:31.639
<v Speaker 2>Cinemat isn't the Hopper, but god damn, this would be

3816
03:31:31.719 --> 03:31:33.879
<v Speaker 2>such an amazing thing to hear, the greatest podcast on

3817
03:31:33.920 --> 03:31:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Earth cover. Thank you if you happen to read or

3818
03:31:36.200 --> 03:31:39.000
<v Speaker 2>consider this TLF for life. Well, thank you, Carlos. What

3819
03:31:39.079 --> 03:31:40.799
<v Speaker 2>do you think Boss Mike Tyson ever going to be

3820
03:31:40.879 --> 03:31:41.639
<v Speaker 2>Under the Cinemat?

3821
03:31:42.040 --> 03:31:42.120
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

3822
03:31:42.239 --> 03:31:46.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely qualifies, no question, No, absolute qualifies. Absolutely.

3823
03:31:46.799 --> 03:31:54.040
<v Speaker 3>He qualifies just on you know, because for a number

3824
03:31:54.040 --> 03:31:58.399
<v Speaker 3>of things, but especially because of Wrestling fourteen. Listen. He

3825
03:31:58.559 --> 03:32:01.280
<v Speaker 3>was totally very very easy one in that it's an

3826
03:32:01.280 --> 03:32:04.799
<v Speaker 3>easy one. His involvement him being part of d X,

3827
03:32:05.000 --> 03:32:10.440
<v Speaker 3>like all that stuff. He's he's he's there, no question.

3828
03:32:11.120 --> 03:32:13.639
<v Speaker 2>Morgan's enjoying the mote tier in Wrestle Mamia on the

3829
03:32:13.680 --> 03:32:16.840
<v Speaker 2>Vince McMahon versusll Cogan one that you posted, Yes, he

3830
03:32:16.879 --> 03:32:20.040
<v Speaker 2>wrote underneath quote quoting your mom. They're both down, but

3831
03:32:20.120 --> 03:32:26.440
<v Speaker 2>nobody is counting. Yep, every single time, every single time, listen,

3832
03:32:26.559 --> 03:32:31.280
<v Speaker 2>I have to so So I I already talked about.

3833
03:32:31.040 --> 03:32:34.799
<v Speaker 3>How you know we we we watch in batch okay,

3834
03:32:34.879 --> 03:32:38.399
<v Speaker 3>in bulk form, were the costco of watching wrestling matches,

3835
03:32:39.280 --> 03:32:44.440
<v Speaker 3>And so I'm telling you so sometimes we'll watch four

3836
03:32:44.520 --> 03:32:48.200
<v Speaker 3>to six matches in a day when I when I'm around,

3837
03:32:48.680 --> 03:32:51.440
<v Speaker 3>I like to get a month in when I when

3838
03:32:51.559 --> 03:32:54.600
<v Speaker 3>if if I'm if she's visiting or if I'm visiting

3839
03:32:54.680 --> 03:32:56.360
<v Speaker 3>or whatever, I like to get a month's worth of

3840
03:32:56.399 --> 03:33:01.959
<v Speaker 3>content in. And so we're gonna watch four to six

3841
03:33:02.040 --> 03:33:07.840
<v Speaker 3>matches in a row. Every match it's like starting from scratch.

3842
03:33:09.440 --> 03:33:16.760
<v Speaker 3>I have to explain every match why how a pinfall works.

3843
03:33:17.280 --> 03:33:19.600
<v Speaker 3>And it's like we just saw a match, but I

3844
03:33:19.600 --> 03:33:21.680
<v Speaker 3>have to restart. It's like it's honest, it's like a

3845
03:33:21.719 --> 03:33:24.159
<v Speaker 3>reset button happens every time we start a new match.

3846
03:33:25.840 --> 03:33:28.639
<v Speaker 3>It's it's unbelievable. I mean, and it's totally legit, like

3847
03:33:28.680 --> 03:33:34.719
<v Speaker 3>it's not it's not you know, it's it's like it

3848
03:33:34.879 --> 03:33:37.840
<v Speaker 3>just went in and out. It's like it just went

3849
03:33:37.879 --> 03:33:40.360
<v Speaker 3>in out and all of a sudden, like this match

3850
03:33:40.959 --> 03:33:43.639
<v Speaker 3>then it's like we watch a regular match, and we

3851
03:33:43.639 --> 03:33:45.840
<v Speaker 3>watched another regular match, and it's like, for some reason,

3852
03:33:46.239 --> 03:33:49.799
<v Speaker 3>the rules in the previous match just don't qualify for

3853
03:33:49.879 --> 03:33:50.559
<v Speaker 3>the next match.

3854
03:33:50.799 --> 03:33:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Hell, I don't blame her. I mean every you sprinkling

3855
03:33:53.840 --> 03:33:56.479
<v Speaker 2>ec W and stuff. This doesn't make any sense. There's

3856
03:33:56.559 --> 03:33:59.479
<v Speaker 2>DQ here, not account Oh yeah, of course, of course.

3857
03:33:59.559 --> 03:34:03.000
<v Speaker 3>It's you know, you.

3858
03:34:02.920 --> 03:34:04.879
<v Speaker 2>Can tap out in this match to submit, but in

3859
03:34:04.879 --> 03:34:06.719
<v Speaker 2>this match he slamming the mat in a submission hole.

3860
03:34:06.719 --> 03:34:07.719
<v Speaker 2>But it's not a tap.

3861
03:34:08.200 --> 03:34:11.639
<v Speaker 3>Yep, and like, but the best is that is when

3862
03:34:11.680 --> 03:34:13.399
<v Speaker 3>you see is when she sees two wrestlers on their

3863
03:34:13.440 --> 03:34:15.600
<v Speaker 3>backs on the ground, she doesn't nderstand why nobody's getting

3864
03:34:15.639 --> 03:34:18.719
<v Speaker 3>counted out. Well, you got to cover the guy Mom

3865
03:34:18.879 --> 03:34:23.000
<v Speaker 3>called the double down. Jesus put the crowd up. What

3866
03:34:23.079 --> 03:34:28.000
<v Speaker 3>I know, that's a good question. Brother puts his hand

3867
03:34:28.040 --> 03:34:28.360
<v Speaker 3>in the end.

3868
03:34:28.760 --> 03:34:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Whoa whoa, whoa whoa in between you guys. Here's a

3869
03:34:32.079 --> 03:34:34.959
<v Speaker 2>little lap slice of life from Zach at a conference

3870
03:34:34.959 --> 03:34:36.719
<v Speaker 2>at a fancy hotel, listening to the cast while I

3871
03:34:36.760 --> 03:34:39.159
<v Speaker 2>walk to the seated breakfast. Take out my AirPods and

3872
03:34:39.239 --> 03:34:41.680
<v Speaker 2>my phone, Kate shoot and my phone shows this time

3873
03:34:42.079 --> 03:34:44.920
<v Speaker 2>to not be silent, but instead loudly plays the boss

3874
03:34:45.040 --> 03:34:49.959
<v Speaker 2>singing Sergeant Slaughter's baby Face song at the fancy conference.

3875
03:34:50.200 --> 03:34:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh Jesus, correct, it's happening out there, folks, Rosalie Caine,

3876
03:34:57.719 --> 03:35:05.239
<v Speaker 2>Scott Jerck de Rosier, Twaan, Matthew Wallatchuck, Michael Fisco, Sean

3877
03:35:05.399 --> 03:35:11.719
<v Speaker 2>three point sixteen, Ben Buck, Andrea Angrisane, Andrew Brister, and

3878
03:35:11.879 --> 03:35:17.719
<v Speaker 2>so many more. Jim Rocco, they just must support that

3879
03:35:17.840 --> 03:35:21.120
<v Speaker 2>fucking cast. Amber wants us to know. Help. I'm an

3880
03:35:21.159 --> 03:35:23.920
<v Speaker 2>IRS fan. I coach you.

3881
03:35:24.000 --> 03:35:24.239
<v Speaker 3>Sorry.

3882
03:35:24.399 --> 03:35:26.239
<v Speaker 2>For some reason, when I was a kiddo late early

3883
03:35:26.719 --> 03:35:29.120
<v Speaker 2>at late eighties early nineties, I had a fascination with

3884
03:35:29.239 --> 03:35:32.360
<v Speaker 2>entertainment branded fictional characters who were tough guys but wore

3885
03:35:32.479 --> 03:35:37.079
<v Speaker 2>ordinary clothing bonus points if they bled on their duds.

3886
03:35:37.079 --> 03:35:39.639
<v Speaker 2>I suppose for a farm girl like myself that such

3887
03:35:39.799 --> 03:35:42.719
<v Speaker 2>juxtaposition was impressive. At the time, it felt to me

3888
03:35:42.799 --> 03:35:45.159
<v Speaker 2>like Diehard's Bruce Willis had introduced the battered and bloodied

3889
03:35:45.200 --> 03:35:47.040
<v Speaker 2>hero to the culture. So when I first saw the

3890
03:35:47.079 --> 03:35:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Hasbro Irs figure at KB Toys, I thought, Oh, here's

3891
03:35:50.239 --> 03:35:52.840
<v Speaker 2>another take on that formula. An ordinary Joe who had

3892
03:35:52.879 --> 03:35:57.200
<v Speaker 2>a day job but was also a bruiser. Look at

3893
03:35:57.200 --> 03:35:59.440
<v Speaker 2>those arms, and as a fan of de Biassi, of

3894
03:35:59.520 --> 03:36:02.079
<v Speaker 2>course I had become an IRS fan too. Needless to say,

3895
03:36:02.079 --> 03:36:05.120
<v Speaker 2>I failed to convince my friends that Rotundo was ever cool. Still,

3896
03:36:05.159 --> 03:36:07.120
<v Speaker 2>he remains one of my favorite hasbros to this day.

3897
03:36:07.440 --> 03:36:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it says something that is modern figures all suck

3898
03:36:10.319 --> 03:36:13.239
<v Speaker 2>with ill fitting glasses and suspenders. That original figure lined

3899
03:36:13.559 --> 03:36:16.040
<v Speaker 2>went a long way and inspiring a kid's imagination, making

3900
03:36:16.079 --> 03:36:19.120
<v Speaker 2>even jobbers often seem cool. They were my introduction to

3901
03:36:19.200 --> 03:36:21.719
<v Speaker 2>this shame we call wrestling, so I created stories in

3902
03:36:21.799 --> 03:36:24.440
<v Speaker 2>my head long before ever seeing a WW match. To

3903
03:36:24.520 --> 03:36:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Vince's point right about how we set the platform, we

3904
03:36:26.559 --> 03:36:27.200
<v Speaker 2>set the template.

3905
03:36:27.719 --> 03:36:27.799
<v Speaker 3>Ye.

3906
03:36:28.319 --> 03:36:30.479
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the attached advertisement. I found

3907
03:36:30.520 --> 03:36:33.280
<v Speaker 2>proof that I left his mark. Yes, there's a it's

3908
03:36:33.319 --> 03:36:36.920
<v Speaker 2>a utility pant that's on sale in like a fashion magazine.

3909
03:36:37.360 --> 03:36:40.079
<v Speaker 2>And then the red suspenders looks just like IRS man.

3910
03:36:40.280 --> 03:36:40.479
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

3911
03:36:40.479 --> 03:36:42.479
<v Speaker 2>I didn't like that Hazibro figure though, I'm with you.

3912
03:36:42.680 --> 03:36:44.520
<v Speaker 3>No, I was not a fan of the stomps. The

3913
03:36:44.600 --> 03:36:49.840
<v Speaker 3>stomp figures were awful, terrible. They were they were. There

3914
03:36:49.920 --> 03:36:54.120
<v Speaker 3>were three figure styles that just didn't work. The stomps

3915
03:36:55.200 --> 03:36:59.239
<v Speaker 3>the weird push down the feet and the arms flail

3916
03:36:59.319 --> 03:37:04.120
<v Speaker 3>around and then the pushdown the lakes together jumpers not

3917
03:37:04.239 --> 03:37:04.520
<v Speaker 3>a fan.

3918
03:37:04.879 --> 03:37:08.120
<v Speaker 2>We mentioned the Raw guest host thing Mike things Heat

3919
03:37:08.239 --> 03:37:10.959
<v Speaker 2>from nineteen ninety five qualifies because Piven was involved when

3920
03:37:11.000 --> 03:37:14.959
<v Speaker 2>he guest hosted Raw and he called SummerSlam summer Fest.

3921
03:37:16.799 --> 03:37:17.479
<v Speaker 2>That's pretty good.

3922
03:37:19.079 --> 03:37:21.840
<v Speaker 3>I know that is again that that might be one.

3923
03:37:22.079 --> 03:37:22.920
<v Speaker 3>I let it slide.

3924
03:37:22.959 --> 03:37:25.879
<v Speaker 2>I always think that's the ultimate one. Like that's the

3925
03:37:25.920 --> 03:37:28.200
<v Speaker 2>measuring stick because pivn like he did nothing. He just

3926
03:37:28.239 --> 03:37:30.799
<v Speaker 2>showed up for some contractual obligation and did the Raw

3927
03:37:30.840 --> 03:37:34.920
<v Speaker 2>hosting thing to promote something. Yeah, could care less. But

3928
03:37:35.200 --> 03:37:39.280
<v Speaker 2>Heat man, I know right, we all about that around here.

3929
03:37:40.319 --> 03:37:43.000
<v Speaker 2>Sammy has another one, boss Man in the Forrest Gump novel.

3930
03:37:43.239 --> 03:37:45.000
<v Speaker 2>I did not know this. This is true. In the

3931
03:37:45.079 --> 03:37:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Forst Gump novel, he became a successful pro wrestler for

3932
03:37:48.200 --> 03:37:48.680
<v Speaker 2>a period.

3933
03:37:49.479 --> 03:37:50.079
<v Speaker 3>That's what he says.

3934
03:37:50.120 --> 03:37:52.719
<v Speaker 2>I gotta look at this discount because we need for Scott.

3935
03:37:53.360 --> 03:37:56.719
<v Speaker 3>That's the whole thing. I I don't. I mean, that's

3936
03:37:56.920 --> 03:38:02.159
<v Speaker 3>that's like, because it's in the novel, does that qualify

3937
03:38:02.239 --> 03:38:03.079
<v Speaker 3>the movie, right?

3938
03:38:03.559 --> 03:38:08.760
<v Speaker 2>I would think so. I'm not.

3939
03:38:09.079 --> 03:38:12.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm not denying like, I'm definitely considering it. I gotta

3940
03:38:12.159 --> 03:38:13.719
<v Speaker 3>I gotta look it up a little bit. I gotta

3941
03:38:13.879 --> 03:38:14.799
<v Speaker 3>do some research on that.

3942
03:38:17.760 --> 03:38:18.959
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to see what you come up with.

3943
03:38:21.120 --> 03:38:23.360
<v Speaker 2>Robert wants to know if Brad Dorriff did the actual

3944
03:38:23.440 --> 03:38:26.760
<v Speaker 2>voice for Chucky on WCW against Rick Steiner. Does blue

3945
03:38:26.840 --> 03:38:29.479
<v Speaker 2>Velvet itself qualify shit?

3946
03:38:33.200 --> 03:38:34.120
<v Speaker 3>Is that a fact that we know?

3947
03:38:34.239 --> 03:38:34.280
<v Speaker 4>That?

3948
03:38:34.440 --> 03:38:35.000
<v Speaker 3>Is he saying that that?

3949
03:38:35.360 --> 03:38:36.719
<v Speaker 2>He says it like it's a fact. I mean, I

3950
03:38:36.799 --> 03:38:37.520
<v Speaker 2>didn't know that, but.

3951
03:38:40.040 --> 03:38:41.760
<v Speaker 3>I'll look it up. I'll look at this. Is this

3952
03:38:41.879 --> 03:38:43.040
<v Speaker 3>is also I gotta look into.

3953
03:38:47.520 --> 03:38:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Massive.

3954
03:38:49.159 --> 03:38:51.239
<v Speaker 3>I know this, this could be. These are game changers.

3955
03:38:51.319 --> 03:38:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Scott says next weekend he's gonna do the grilled English,

3956

<v Speaker 2>Spicy homemade mcmuffins, spicy sausage Colby pepper Jack. A quick

03:38:58.680 --> 03:39:00.799
<v Speaker 2>go to is also a toastering the smuff and crunchy

03:39:00.879 --> 03:39:04.000
<v Speaker 2>peanut butter let, the hot muffin melt the peanut butter fantastic,

3959
03:39:04.600 --> 03:39:08.120
<v Speaker 2>and a homemade lodge regular. In case you're wondering what's

3960
03:39:08.159 --> 03:39:15.399
<v Speaker 2>for breakfast going forward, Stephen has a cans and I

3961
03:39:15.479 --> 03:39:17.639
<v Speaker 2>can say without any doubt, yeah, he wants us to

3962
03:39:17.719 --> 03:39:21.159
<v Speaker 2>know that as a because you know, if we're going

3963
03:39:21.239 --> 03:39:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to go out on food, we're gonna go out on

3964
03:39:22.920 --> 03:39:25.440
<v Speaker 2>food as a cans. And he can say without any doubt,

3965
03:39:25.479 --> 03:39:28.639
<v Speaker 2>barbecue sauce is the King condiment, thoughts.

3966
03:39:29.760 --> 03:39:32.159
<v Speaker 3>Ah, the King connon No, I can't say it's the

3967
03:39:32.239 --> 03:39:34.760
<v Speaker 3>King condiment. I like, I love barbecue sauce, but it's

3968
03:39:34.799 --> 03:39:36.760
<v Speaker 3>gonna be on the right thing. I can't use it

3969
03:39:36.799 --> 03:39:40.319
<v Speaker 3>for everything. That's the King condiment then, m that's a

3970
03:39:40.360 --> 03:39:46.760
<v Speaker 3>good question, the King condiment. I mean what I like most, honestly, mayonnaise.

3971
03:39:47.760 --> 03:39:54.840
<v Speaker 3>I love mayonnaise. I love mayonnaise goes well with most things. Yeah,

3972
03:39:54.879 --> 03:39:56.600
<v Speaker 3>I know, I know it is, it absolutely is.

3973
03:39:56.680 --> 03:40:01.360
<v Speaker 2>But I love like mayonnaise with like I can. I

3974
03:40:01.440 --> 03:40:07.120
<v Speaker 2>can have mayonnaise with most with pretty much any deli meat,

3975
03:40:08.159 --> 03:40:11.360
<v Speaker 2>how fuckingnise? Thanksgiving, sir.

3976
03:40:12.079 --> 03:40:14.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's it's it's it's it. It's what makes it, Honestly,

3977
03:40:14.760 --> 03:40:16.680
<v Speaker 3>it's that it's that little that little like such a

3978
03:40:17.959 --> 03:40:21.479
<v Speaker 3>it's that see that and the and and the cranberry

3979
03:40:21.520 --> 03:40:26.680
<v Speaker 3>sauce or were kind of all together. So it's mayonnaise,

3980
03:40:26.799 --> 03:40:33.799
<v Speaker 3>is it? And you know, Manai's on a burger always. Yeah,

3981
03:40:34.000 --> 03:40:34.959
<v Speaker 3>I don't go with mayo.

3982
03:40:35.719 --> 03:40:37.719
<v Speaker 2>See, I don't know. If I have a king, I

3983
03:40:37.760 --> 03:40:40.239
<v Speaker 2>would say it's barbecue sauce to myself, but not because

3984
03:40:40.239 --> 03:40:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I think it's better than everything, but just because it

3985
03:40:41.959 --> 03:40:44.360
<v Speaker 2>is the one thing that I know I like on

3986
03:40:44.520 --> 03:40:49.280
<v Speaker 2>more than just one type of food. M M, yes, well,

3987
03:40:50.079 --> 03:40:53.479
<v Speaker 2>and I do like barbecue sauce, but I'm not see.

3988
03:40:53.479 --> 03:40:55.479
<v Speaker 2>I would never put in like mayonnaise on you know,

3989
03:40:55.920 --> 03:40:57.479
<v Speaker 2>ribs or chicken. I can't.

3990
03:40:58.120 --> 03:41:00.319
<v Speaker 3>I like to, but I can't picture you would. I

3991
03:41:00.319 --> 03:41:02.360
<v Speaker 3>would put mayonnaise on chicken. I would put mayonnaise on

3992
03:41:02.399 --> 03:41:04.760
<v Speaker 3>a on a on a grilled chicken or a fried

3993
03:41:04.840 --> 03:41:08.840
<v Speaker 3>chicken sandwich, no question. I wouldn't put barbecues on barbecue

3994
03:41:09.000 --> 03:41:11.239
<v Speaker 3>unless I was doing a barbecue chicken sandwich.

3995
03:41:12.319 --> 03:41:14.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm supposed say hot honey. Now, isn't that supposed to

3996
03:41:14.239 --> 03:41:15.239
<v Speaker 2>be my answer to that question.

3997
03:41:15.639 --> 03:41:20.319
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you, man, I fucking love hot honey, little dab.

3998
03:41:21.120 --> 03:41:24.120
<v Speaker 3>I know it's the coolest, doesn't mean it's not delicious.

3999
03:41:24.600 --> 03:41:27.879
<v Speaker 3>There's a pizza place, and I there's a pizza place,

4000
03:41:28.760 --> 03:41:30.440
<v Speaker 3>and that that's kind of the thing. Now, is hot

4001
03:41:30.479 --> 03:41:36.120
<v Speaker 3>honey on pizza? It is so fucking The pepperoni with

4002
03:41:36.200 --> 03:41:41.000
<v Speaker 3>it it's it's no, it's I get this. It's sausage,

4003
03:41:42.639 --> 03:41:47.879
<v Speaker 3>jalapenos and hot honey, and it is un fucking believable.

4004
03:41:49.000 --> 03:41:55.120
<v Speaker 3>It's heavenly correct hot honey. Wins Alli writes, what's the

4005
03:41:55.159 --> 03:41:57.280
<v Speaker 3>best for an object? And why is it rolled steel?

4006
03:41:59.799 --> 03:42:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I can't imagine who we could ask that question too.

4007
03:42:04.840 --> 03:42:09.159
<v Speaker 2>It's out there is a right's huge fan of the show.

4008
03:42:09.479 --> 03:42:11.360
<v Speaker 2>While listening to the Spring mail Bag episode, the idea

4009
03:42:11.360 --> 03:42:13.319
<v Speaker 2>of pilgrimage to old arenas was mentioned, and I have

4010
03:42:13.399 --> 03:42:15.200
<v Speaker 2>to say, here in Detroit we might have the most

4011
03:42:15.319 --> 03:42:17.959
<v Speaker 2>unique idea for lapsed arena pilgrimage. The Silver Dome, Joe

4012
03:42:18.040 --> 03:42:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Louis Arena, and Palace of Auburn Hills have all been demolished,

4013
03:42:20.959 --> 03:42:24.159
<v Speaker 2>but we still have Cobo Hall now known as Huntington Place,

4014
03:42:24.440 --> 03:42:26.840
<v Speaker 2>where the famous Halloween Havoc monster truck battle took place

4015
03:42:26.879 --> 03:42:28.920
<v Speaker 2>and where the giant fell off the roof, not to

4016
03:42:29.000 --> 03:42:32.600
<v Speaker 2>mention the chic and Bobo Brazil's many exploits. Although I

4017
03:42:32.639 --> 03:42:35.239
<v Speaker 2>have the recollection that the Cobo Hall that's referred to

4018
03:42:35.280 --> 03:42:37.760
<v Speaker 2>as Cobo Hale now as like adjacent to where the

4019
03:42:37.840 --> 03:42:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Sheik did his business. But I'll try to visit the

4020
03:42:41.440 --> 03:42:43.079
<v Speaker 2>site soon and send you guys some photos from the

4021
03:42:43.120 --> 03:42:44.719
<v Speaker 2>top of the roof, since I believe it's still used

4022
03:42:44.760 --> 03:42:47.079
<v Speaker 2>for parking. As a side note, is Detroit the only

4023
03:42:47.120 --> 03:42:49.520
<v Speaker 2>place where three major stadiums and arenas have been imploded

4024
03:42:49.559 --> 03:42:52.559
<v Speaker 2>with so much wrestling history. Silver Dome with wrestlming E three,

4025
03:42:52.639 --> 03:42:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Joe Lewis Arena with Halloween Havoc Survivor series, Austin on

4026
03:42:55.760 --> 03:42:58.360
<v Speaker 2>rob with the Zamboni, and the Palace with SummerSlam, World

4027
03:42:58.399 --> 03:43:00.680
<v Speaker 2>War three and Luger beating Hog on the one hundredth

4028
03:43:00.760 --> 03:43:03.799
<v Speaker 2>edition of Nitro. It used to be better. Indeed, Yeah,

4029
03:43:04.559 --> 03:43:06.120
<v Speaker 2>when I think of cities that a body, it used

4030
03:43:06.120 --> 03:43:08.239
<v Speaker 2>to be better, Detroit is it. And I mean that

4031
03:43:08.399 --> 03:43:11.440
<v Speaker 2>not as a smartest comment about it's hollowed out industrial base.

4032
03:43:11.719 --> 03:43:13.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean that as a comment about wrestling and the

4033
03:43:13.799 --> 03:43:17.959
<v Speaker 2>things that happen there. Yeah, nothing happens there anymore. The

4034
03:43:17.959 --> 03:43:18.399
<v Speaker 2>business I know.

4035
03:43:18.520 --> 03:43:21.079
<v Speaker 3>It's such a it's it's sad. It's really sad.

4036
03:43:21.719 --> 03:43:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Jerome Rice, you mentioned people looking down and realizing what

4037
03:43:24.440 --> 03:43:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the chairman are saying applies to them. As someone who

4038
03:43:27.040 --> 03:43:30.799
<v Speaker 2>teaches multiple college English classes every time, Jack mentions that

4039
03:43:30.879 --> 03:43:33.399
<v Speaker 2>in order to succeed in higher ed one should copy

4040
03:43:33.479 --> 03:43:36.680
<v Speaker 2>the writing and speaking style of the professor. I feel

4041
03:43:36.680 --> 03:43:42.920
<v Speaker 2>a little attacked, but he's right. Recently a student who

4042
03:43:42.920 --> 03:43:44.079
<v Speaker 2>I know for a fact would not listen to the

4043
03:43:44.120 --> 03:43:47.319
<v Speaker 2>lapsed fan told another student that same piece of advice. Well, yep,

4044
03:43:48.719 --> 03:43:51.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, good ideas have a way of traveling. Uh, yes,

4045
03:43:51.840 --> 03:43:56.159
<v Speaker 2>trailing fast. We're going to conclude this episode in recognition of,

4046
03:43:56.559 --> 03:44:00.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, having lost hal Coogan by adding him to

4047
03:44:00.520 --> 03:44:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the Ultimate WrestleMania Death Toll, which has been a running

4048
03:44:04.159 --> 03:44:07.040
<v Speaker 2>tally kept by the homie Christian Hollister for years and

4049
03:44:07.159 --> 03:44:10.040
<v Speaker 2>years and years. Oh yeah, and that he recently you know,

4050
03:44:10.399 --> 03:44:14.879
<v Speaker 2>informed us uh included has as celebrity wing and everything,

4051
03:44:15.479 --> 03:44:18.200
<v Speaker 2>but recently included uh hull Cogan as well. Now he

4052
03:44:18.280 --> 03:44:20.840
<v Speaker 2>did send this, let me get the time stamp here.

4053
03:44:21.079 --> 03:44:23.200
<v Speaker 2>He did send this several months ago, so there is

4054
03:44:23.280 --> 03:44:25.040
<v Speaker 2>a chance that more than just Hull Cogan has been

4055
03:44:25.079 --> 03:44:28.639
<v Speaker 2>added to the list. But I think it's appropriate as

4056
03:44:28.840 --> 03:44:32.120
<v Speaker 2>we conclude this mailbag episode, the last one in a while,

4057
03:44:32.159 --> 03:44:36.520
<v Speaker 2>and it's in its format. Let's see, Well, who's who's died? Well,

4058
03:44:36.879 --> 03:44:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Mango and Sabu, Yeah, they were both at WrestleMania. That's true.

4059
03:44:41.040 --> 03:44:41.680
<v Speaker 2>That's a good one.

4060
03:44:42.159 --> 03:44:44.000
<v Speaker 3>In fact, WrestleMania.

4061
03:44:44.959 --> 03:44:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're right, Yeah, I think he would, he would qualify,

4062
03:44:48.920 --> 03:44:49.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah for sure.

4063
03:44:50.159 --> 03:44:53.239
<v Speaker 3>So all right, so here we go. Oh my gosh,

<v Speaker 3>look at look at these fucking this.

4065
03:44:55.399 --> 03:44:57.360

4066
03:44:57.399 --> 03:45:00.520
<v Speaker 2>of pain, forty years of hurt, forty years of death.

4067

<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna do I'm gonna do it backwards than what
