1 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: Only the giants of professional wrestling perhaps left at this juncture. 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,160 In the TLFX Games King of the Cast tournament. Hi, 3 00:00:10,199 --> 00:00:12,519 I'm Sean Mooney. This is the TLFX Games event center, 4 00:00:12,679 --> 00:00:15,279 and of course our tournament to determine the greatest character 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,519 in the history of the Lapsed Fan podcast is brought 6 00:00:17,519 --> 00:00:20,559 to you by Garage Beer, small Batch like beer. The 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,640 garage is always open, no bitterness, beer that tastes like beer. 8 00:00:24,839 --> 00:00:29,120 Definitely not an IPA, and definitely in a position to 9 00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:32,039 advance into our semi final round. Here in our quarter 10 00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:36,280 final meeting are two real giants of the industry, one literally, Andre, 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,039 the giant Lapsed. Andre has moaned and groaned his way 12 00:00:40,079 --> 00:00:43,520 all the way to a very very close position vis 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,840 a v the King of the Cast Crown, while his 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,719 opposition in this round Jesse the mind the body call Um, 15 00:00:48,759 --> 00:00:51,719 which you will Ventura. But Calum a gentleman who's coming 16 00:00:51,759 --> 00:00:55,560 off a massive upset. In some on some Waddsmaker's books 17 00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:58,359 over the Lapsed Editor, many thought, of course that someone 18 00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:00,880 from the grizzled journalism world would be able to bring 19 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,439 down the former Minnesota governor. But if you let him 20 00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:05,920 on the stage as we've come to learn laps Jesse 21 00:01:06,239 --> 00:01:09,319 will find a way to prevail. Will that continue to 22 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,239 be the case here in our King of the cast racketing? 23 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,480 We're about to find out as we hear from both 24 00:01:13,519 --> 00:01:16,640 principles in this encounter. First up, we go to grenoble 25 00:01:16,879 --> 00:01:18,959 and lapse Andre Choseylor. 26 00:01:20,359 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 2: What I'm going to do to you is exactly what 27 00:01:23,599 --> 00:01:30,079 I've done to Bobcavo and Vo. I have pulled him 28 00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,280 that even though I am a giant of the road, 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:39,159 I have the agility of a man three times smaller 30 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:44,159 than my massive firm. I will take you onto the 31 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,840 grand stage, Jose the door, and I will show you 32 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,519 that the both of a lifetime. I will fight you. 33 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,799 I will argue with you. Each time you make a point, 34 00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:04,159 I grod it with my hands and I will squeeze you. 35 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,560 I will squeeh your brain, Jesse and Dora. And then 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,479 what I will do is I will clide. I will 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,360 glide to the top rope. I cry that I am 38 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:21,159 now all right, you see me, Jesse and Dora, I 39 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,919 have a pile that you could possibly be and I 40 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:44,240 will talk. I broke my lad ah ah ah all right, 41 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,439 big please please oh my god, move, I don't know 42 00:02:48,479 --> 00:02:54,400 where I am. Ah, somebody give me a bill, give 43 00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:57,599 me all keg of beer if the only way I 44 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:58,240 can move. 45 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: Ah, Someone get that guy a garage beer. As the 46 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,280 King of the cast continues to unfold, we've heard words 47 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,599 and hopefully Lapse Andre is in a condition to perform 48 00:03:09,719 --> 00:03:12,439 when it comes time to match withs if not fisticuffs 49 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,240 with Lapsed Jesse Ventura. Of course, it was a direct 50 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,360 path for Lapse Jesse, but it was a super tight 51 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,800 last round. Jesse Ventura was able to edge out the 52 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,719 Lapsed editor by perhaps the tightest margin we've seen yet 53 00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:29,080 in our tournament. Just fifty point nine percent to forty 54 00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:32,280 nine point one percent was the margin of victory for 55 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,000 our next guest, Lapsed Jesse Ventura. 56 00:03:35,159 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: You see, it's finally come to be that Jesse the 57 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,360 Body Ventura has had a victory over the media in 58 00:03:43,479 --> 00:03:48,039 their own game. See. I came I came up from behind. 59 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,639 I came up as the former governor of Minnesota, and 60 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,080 I came in against a guy who doesn't believe in 61 00:03:55,159 --> 00:03:59,039 what we do here in the wrestling world, and I said, 62 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,879 you know what, pass well, this is my time, this 63 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,520 is my game. This is my world, and I took 64 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,439 him down. Now I got Andre the Giant. Well, I'll 65 00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:14,280 tell you something. I don't mind being a good guy. 66 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,560 I don't mind being a villain. You see in wrestling. 67 00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:20,360 When I was a wrestler, I used to have a 68 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,759 mustache that made me look like a villain. You know, 69 00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:27,480 a good mustache can give you the look of the devil. 70 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,360 And I don't mind being Jesse the Devil Ventura against 71 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,759 Andre the Giant, all right, because you know what's gonna happen. 72 00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:39,319 Wrestling is a ballet with violence, and you know what, 73 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,399 I don't mind being violent with a guy like Andre 74 00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:45,680 the Giant. You know what, because he's part of a 75 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,600 two party system. He doesn't have anything. You know, he 76 00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:54,560 doesn't understand third party mentality. He's got a very small brain. 77 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,120 I've got a very big brain. I'm Jesse the Mind Ventura. 78 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,560 You know what. He wasn't ever mayor of Grenoble, France. 79 00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:05,920 I was mayor. I was governor of Minnesota, mayor of 80 00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:10,040 Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. You know, he doesn't have these kind 81 00:05:10,079 --> 00:05:13,600 of accolades to prove that he is the best in 82 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,000 the world. But I do, I absolutely do, and I 83 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,920 don't mind telling you this. I am an American patriot, 84 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,040 and patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty 85 00:05:27,079 --> 00:05:30,160 and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief. 86 00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:35,800 A patriot shows their patriotism through their actions, by their choice. 87 00:05:35,879 --> 00:05:38,680 And I'm going to tell you something right now, Jesse 88 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:44,000 the body Ventura coming from Mexico, showing patriotism by taking 89 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,959 down a son of a bitch from France. Wow. 90 00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:51,519 Speaker 1: Extremely powerful words there from Jesse to the body of Ventura. 91 00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:54,360 Laps Jesse, I think can smell victory, among other things, 92 00:05:54,519 --> 00:05:57,000 as he stares across the bracket here at our quarter 93 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,120 from around against Lapsed Andre, the giant. Of course, Andre 94 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,839 punched his ticket to this quarterfinal round, defeating a w 95 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,959 a great verne Gania, the very men who broke in 96 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,480 his next rout opponent, Jesse Ventura in so many ways, 97 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,600 having been a product of the Twin Cities and his 98 00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:15,120 own right Lapsed Andrea defeating vern Gania by a range 99 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,959 of fifty two point six percent to forty seven point 100 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,120 four percent in our last round. The quarterfinals are here, 101 00:06:22,879 --> 00:06:25,639 and the rhetoric and the back and forth is reaching 102 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,279 a fever pitch. We can only guess how much more 103 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,160 intense it's going to get on the road to crowning 104 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,319 the King of the Cast, and for your chance to 105 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,600 vote on who advances, keep your eyes peeled to the 106 00:06:34,639 --> 00:06:37,600 Lapsed Fan's ex account at the Lapsed Fan where all 107 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,600 the details will be forthcoming after we hear from all 108 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,639 of our participants right here with the TLFX Games event Center. 109 00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:48,959 I'm Sean Mooney and we'll see you next time.
