And then I 13 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: waited a beat and I said, I how was Hawaii? 14 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: And then the second uns and I said, it doesn't matter. 15 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: How wire is Okay? You walked right into it how 16 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: so I was mad? But it was too good, so 17 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: I laughed. But I hate walking into those, man. I 18 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: used to be the pro at that and now I'm 19 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: back at the bottom of the ladder. What how was Hawaiian? 20 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: I tell us a little bit about it. Hawaii was amazing. 21 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: It was the land of the Rock. I felt I 22 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: felt very powerful there. I felt the mana. I didn't 23 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: drink any of his drinks, alcoholic or nonalcoholic, but spiritually 24 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: I consumed them all. And my children love it. We 25 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: snorkeled an octopus inked my my daughter on the snorkel, 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: and she thought it was pretty funny. My wife chased 27 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: after a shark because she's a psychopath. And when I 28 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 1: saw the shark, I grabbed the kids and swam the 29 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: other direction. You got the whole Awquaman like trip. You 30 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: didn't do. This was very unlike the Rock at all. Yeah, well, 31 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: they're like fish basically. My daughter serves, my wife scuba dives, 32 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: and my son was he's just down for whatever. He's 33 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: too young to be afraid of anything. So but it 34 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: was amazing, and it was also a pretty damn good 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: week of wrestling. A couple of people saved the week 36 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: for me because I was starting to get frustrated. But 37 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna discuss it all the entire week. We're gonna 38 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: start with Monday Night Raw, with the Monday Night after 39 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: our show that we recorded Monday morning, and on that show, 40 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: we discussed the fact that Dakota Kai and EO Sky 41 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: might cause a bit of a problem in upcoming promos, 42 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: and Bailey comes out with EO and Dakota. Did I 43 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: forget how good she was on the mic at being 44 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: at at being a heel, or or did she just 45 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: while she was injured be like, yo, I don't give 46 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: a shit about anybody. I don't care. If I have 47 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: a man, he's gone. If I have a girl, she's gone. 48 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: Screw everybody, I'm coming back. She got on the mic 49 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: and she started killing it on her promo, and then 50 00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: she accidentally called Dakota Kai Dakota Sky, and all the 51 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: energy everybody's like butt holes went and got super tight, 52 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: and she barely saved it because she played herself and 53 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: when I know, I messed it up, shut up everybody 54 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: her scrolled and and kind of did a more eighties 55 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: heel with it. Now I didn't. I didn't love that part. 56 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: But she has to save it or she dies on 57 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: social media. And then she she picked it back up. 58 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: And I still think Dakota KaiA is a baby face. 59 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: And if you're going to give somebody one line, don't 60 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: give him a question, because no matter what, they're gonna 61 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: go up and they're never gonna sound tough, and that's 62 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: what they did to Port Dakota Kai and know she 63 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: was like, oh, you mean what we did at SummerSlam 64 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: and it was I was like, yeah, she should have 65 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: just been a statement, not a question. But that's all right. 66 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: Bailey was the one to hold this together until the 67 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: champ came out and Bianca bell Air came out with 68 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: backup with Alexa Bliss, who's good on the mic, and Osaka, 69 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: who they make do goofy stuff. But I love Osca, 70 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: Honest to god, I thought this was the stro longest 71 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: Bianca bell Air, the coolest Bianca Belair. This was the 72 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: best I've seen her on the mic, and she didn't 73 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 1: have a huge long promo, but the way she interacted 74 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: and went back and forth with Bailey. And I've said 75 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: this before, I wish she would have been champed longer 76 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: to have time to grow. But maybe maybe I was 77 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: wrong on this, and when it's written in her own 78 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: words that she can kind of wrap her head around, 79 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: maybe she's way better. Or maybe it's a little looser 80 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: now with the dialogue and they're letting her kind of 81 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: freestyle more. But I've never seen her come off that 82 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: confident and awesome and badass, and I loved when they 83 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: fought and again, it feels like old school crazy chaos 84 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,799 Speaker 1: back in the day wrestling, which was kind of cool. 85 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: What did you think about segment one of Monday and 86 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Night Raw. I'm a big fan of this stable. I 87 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: like them a lot. I also, I'm not even sure 88 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: I like Dakota Kai on the mic or in the ring. 89 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: I just like the way she looks. She looks cool, 90 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: she wrestled. I'll give her. I'll give her that. That 91 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: goes a long ways. They're like, she's bad now she's 92 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: got pink hair, and you go, okay, yeah, that's guess 93 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: that's what a bad girl looks like. I liked it. 94 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: I loved it. I thought it's perfect, good hyping. A 95 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: big fan of stables. I like this three on three. 96 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: We got the rumbles and then we don't need anymore. 97 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: I liked it. I thought it was great. Also, you 98 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: kind of mentioned it, but of course that's why Bailey 99 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: was better, because Triple H is saying, okay, listen, we 100 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: don't have to be so scripted, which I think there's 101 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: a whole plan for that, and I'm not sure, but 102 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: I believe his whole plan is like, if we can 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: get away from the scripted, everything's gonna be a lot 104 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: more realistic because there the only reason a lot of 105 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: people are bad on the MIC is because they would 106 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: get in trouble for like not using the exact sentence right, Yeah, Yeah, 107 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: there were a bunch of words that you're not allowed 108 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: to say, and if it's not word for words, sometimes 109 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: you would get in trouble and it put a lot 110 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: of crazy pressure on it. Yeah, you're right, and you're 111 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: an actor, right, Like, there's there's been probably things you've 112 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: worked on where you can be a little looser and 113 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: than things where the director or whatever tells you you 114 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: say exactly what it says. Or maybe haven't worked for both, 115 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: but I've I've heard that there's both. Yes, Now, I'm 116 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm the kind of person where I really try to 117 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: nail exactly what you wrote, and I'll establish that with 118 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: you first, so that if there's ever a line that 119 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: just sounds like marble's coming out of my mouth, you'll 120 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: let me change it because I've earned some credibility with you. 121 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: But they don't get that kind of time, and they 122 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: don't always have the quality of writer to to work 123 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: back and forth with. Sometimes it's just there's what you 124 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: have and if you're gonna fix it, it's all on you. 125 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: When I was there, there were three people that I 126 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: trusted to write a promo. I'm sure there's probably about 127 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: three people, and they're busy. They can't write for everybody. 128 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: So if Hunter is saying, hey, you're good at this, 129 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: go out there and do your thing. And if that's 130 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: what Bailey did, then I I love her even more. 131 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: I met her on an episode of w W E 132 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: Rivals Every Sunday on Annie, and she was so cool. 133 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: I had never I met a handful of wrestlers and 134 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: and go back and forth with him and and chat 135 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: with him, but her and I weren't friends. I think 136 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: I met her maybe once at a house and said hi, 137 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: and just sitting and speaking to her, and the whole 138 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: shows about you know, the history of wrestling, the history 139 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: is the w W he sees it. Anyway, to see 140 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: her go kind of just off camera with Kevin Nash 141 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: and and Layfield and go back and forth and just 142 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: sort of be on that wavelength and philosophy, I was like, man, 143 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: this chick is so cool. And then she came out 144 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: there and she just crushed it. Man. I don't know, man, 145 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: I don't even know what to say other than I 146 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: guess I was sleeping on her because she wasn't like 147 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: this at n x T, because Vince didn't have his 148 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: hands on n XT on Black and gold En XT 149 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: anyway when she was doing her thing. But I never 150 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: saw a cut promos like this and kind of own 151 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: the crowd the way she does now. She's just super confident. 152 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: Confidence is key man for any kind of performance at all. 153 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: If you're not confident, you're gonna fall on your face 154 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: and when you just kind of can sit there and 155 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: say fuck it. Yeah, she's got a better heel voice 156 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: than a face voice. Yeah. And I liked her as 157 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: a baby, as super bubbly car lot, you know the 158 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: little what are those things called the blow back and 159 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: forth in the wind, what are the balloon things?

Okay, 186 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: talking trash to a fan. A fan is talking trash 187 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: to him, so he goes in on the fan and 188 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: starts talking about how much money he makes a week 189 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: compared to how much this man heckling him is making. 190 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: And he does it in this way that's just obnoxious 191 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: enough that you know, hey, man, he's doing the hell. 192 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: He's not like this insecure prick who's like breaking character 193 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: and getting upset with the fans.

When he came up to Monday Night Raw 199 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: and annihilated John Cena and did his own finisher to 200 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: him and did him that you can't see me when 201 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: he I was like, oh God, they figured it out. 202 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: Wrestling is gonna be great again. And then Vince was like, Nope, 203 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: that guy is not buff. That's over. And now I 204 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: feel like it's coming back ten years later, maybe however 205 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: long it was, but I'm so excited. Jeff Kevin Owens 206 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: is back. He's my favorite. He's my cop a cop 207 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: three favorite wrestlers that wrestle currently He's he didn't he 208 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: have like twenty moves he couldn't do when he came 209 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: to w w E. They're like, you can't do that one, 210 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: you can't do that one. That one's too dangerous. I 211 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: can't believe you're doing that. Like he has all these 212 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: crazy moves when he was Kevin Steen or whatever whatever 213 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: this old names. I'm a huge, huge, huge Kevin Owns fan. Also, 214 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: he's hilarious that like what you're saying, like he's so 215 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: perfect that bad guy stuff. And I'm trying to fair. 216 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: He's from Quebec, right, That accent is perfect for a heel. 217 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: The same accent that owen Hart used to have was 218 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: like shut your mouth like the way like they have 219 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: this kind of like French Canadian like it's perfectly It 220 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: just sounds perfect as a heel voice. And also, what 221 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: what better thing than to brag about how much money 222 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: you make? What is a what is the There's nothing 223 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: lower for a rich guy to brag what how much 224 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: money makes? So it's perfect for a bad guy, and 225 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: I think Kevin Kevin Owens. When it comes to like 226 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: holding a microphone, there's not many people better. Maybe Paul Hammond, Okay, yeah, 227 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: but Paul's more different. The speech Ken then can go 228 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: back and forth as well, and it doesn't feel like 229 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: a speech written by Paul Hayman. It feels like it's 230 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: just kind of off the cup. And I'm sure all 231 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: of the people that listen to this podcast are like 232 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: Big Wrestling marks, so they know all this stuff. But 233 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: if you don't, if you're not really really well versed 234 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: in Kevin owns, go watch the promo he cut um 235 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: with the Young Bucks where he and Adam Cole when 236 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: he's just yelling about how how he's just going going 237 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: off and he's bragging about how much merch he sold 238 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: or he's complaining that they didn't buy enough merch, that 239 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: the town is stupid, and he's like, I brought a 240 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: hundred shirts. I brought a hundred shirts and I only 241 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: sold forty. And then he turns to the Young Buddy Shoes. 242 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty good, that's pretty good, but still 243 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: I should have sold all a hundred, like he was 244 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: just he's just so funny in a perfect wrestling way. 245 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 1: He's one of my favorites. I'm happy to have him back. 246 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: He's the best. Yeah. Man, he always finds opportunities, no 247 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: matter what's going on, to somehow implement that into whatever 248 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: he's doing, whether it's the crowd being rambunctious or rowdy, 249 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: whether it's legit. I guarantee he probably only sold forty 250 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: shirts that night and just into the promo. Yeah, Like 251 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: that's just that's how his brain works. Man, This dude 252 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: is so cool. Man. He's my son's favorite wrestler. I'd 253 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: send him a message once and uh, and anyone can 254 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: do this on social media. All I wrote was, dude, 255 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: I love you, my daughter loves you, and you're my 256 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: son's favorite wrestler. And he writes back, well, who's your 257 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: daughter's favorite wrestler, And I said, oh, that's Bobby Lashly. 258 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: And so he literally records a message and sends it 259 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: to me where he's talking to my son and he's like, Rocky, 260 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 1: you have fantastic taste in wrestling.

Bray Wyatt returned, Yeah, man, 278 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: then I have my two favorites back in back on W. 279 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: Bray White and Kevin Owens. I'd have them both, and 280 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: then yeah, and the two guys that I would want 281 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: in my federation would both be gone.

You 284 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: have to root for wrestler unemployment, so that I may 285 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: have with them. But even if I could offer him 286 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: more money, what you're gonna do? What about you want 287 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: to chase man my belt or get out of here? Yeah, 288 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: chose wrong, babe.

Yeah, that match 304 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: was good, but the other one sticked Sam. Punk is Back. 305 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: It was a title match with Moxley, the a e 306 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: W World champion and Chris Jericho, who's still pulling off 307 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: big matches, did the right thing, tapped out, had to 308 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: give up or as below Ing said in Blood Sport Matte, 309 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: Blood Sports and Bullshit Movie. By the way, Frank Duke's 310 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: wasn't a legit badass guy like that was all lies. 311 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: Don't edit this out, Alex, this is all true. All 312 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: that crap was fake and those dudes would whipped his ass. 313 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: So anyway, Yeah, like Rudy Rudiger, it's not real. Punk 314 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: is back. After Jericho lost, the Jericho Appreciation Society attacked 315 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: the world champion. They're beating the crap out of him. 316 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: Chris Jericho hits him with the belt. There's blood everywhere. 317 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: I think this was like the third, second or third 318 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: match of the night that had blood. It's such a 319 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: gory show. It's like watching Tales from the Crypt back 320 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: in the day. Man. Yeah, well, it's like watching Tales 321 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: from the Crypt. If for a long time they said 322 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: all right, no more goopy, gory blood, and then one 323 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: day they just go okay, bloods allowed, and everyone's going, 324 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: can we do blood? We'll do blood? Can I match 325 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: you have blood? Can blood explode out of the walls? 326 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: Can it explode out of the bed like Nightmare in 327 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: Elm Street? That would be great. How about you, suplex man, 328 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,959 Speaker 1: blood shoots out of both my eyeballs. Would that be okay? 329 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: Just an idea I had. How About we filled the 330 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: ring with blood, but only the bottom of it, so 331 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: when I land hard enough, it explodes and blood goes 332 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: into the crowd. That's how I feel when I'm so old. Now, 333 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: So he's back, he's bloody, he's about to get hit 334 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: with the title again, and here comes the cult of 335 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: personality and punks back and dude, he looks in great shape, 336 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: man like. His arms were way more jack than what 337 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: I remember them being. He's never been in the best 338 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: shape ever, even if his cardio is on point, but 339 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: his arms were looking jacked. He was looking lean as hell. 340 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: He didn't tuck the shirt in which Adam Age did. 341 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: That was a big time mistake, Adam Page. I saw 342 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: you tuck in the white tank top into the jeans, 343 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: and it looked like you were wearing a bodysuit. We 344 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: gotta untucked that, all right, you got friends back there, 345 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,639 Speaker 1: they're gonna let you know, just you know, let it 346 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: poof out a little a little too tight. Punk came out, 347 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: had the shirt out perfect, came out ready to fight, 348 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: and everybody gets beat down, and he saves Jericho for 349 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: the end, Jericho gets beat down. And then here was 350 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: the only thing that was weird to me. Moxley gets saved. 351 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: And I think it's just because his character is crazy, 352 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: but Moxley gets saved, and if you look on his face, 353 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: it was like, I don't I don't care. And he 354 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: did it twice that I that I that I saw, 355 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: and then he stands up and this part I liked, 356 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: and he turns around and then it's just like, Yo, 357 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 1: maybe I'm answering my own question. I don't care if 358 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: you saved me. This is my title. I hate that 359 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: you're back, and if I have to fight you, you're 360 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: gonna bleed way worse than what you see right now. 361 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: And then he just gives him the double fingers and 362 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: then he probably you know, just went back and smoked 363 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: a moral borrow. But Punk gotta standy. No. It was 364 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: a huge organic reaction from the crowd no added noise. 365 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: You just heard the crowd love him, and it made 366 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: me get excited because a w's without m JF and 367 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: without Punk, and we'll I want to talk about the 368 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: Daniel Bryant stuff next, but it's been a little it 369 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: hasn't been up to the level that those guys bring 370 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: it to, and I'll leave it at that. I'm not 371 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: trying to dump on him, but I got very, very 372 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: excited for what's to come. I don't know what story 373 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna tell because both guys are kind of badass 374 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: baby faces, and I'm okay with that, even though I'm 375 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: usually old school, but I feel like someone has to 376 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: be bad and it I don't know if you if 377 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: a crowd is willing to boo cloud Eo or see 378 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: him Punk first, because I don't think they're willing to 379 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 1: bo either of them, and cloud eos with Moxley and 380 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 1: and Daniel Bryant, so it's gonna it'll be tricky, but 381 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: two badasses works every once in a while. It just 382 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: can't be every time. What did you think about the 383 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: return Damn Punk? This came up in the text thread 384 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: multiple time, like I can pinpoint the exact moment. If 385 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: I look through my phone time wine on the timeline 386 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: of when when CM punk came out, because it got 387 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: a huge pot from all my wrestling buddies. Also, I 388 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: am notoriously a cmpunk uh and and Dean Ambrose slash 389 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: Moxley hater. I've been. I've if you, if you me, 390 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: you will find me talking a lot of trash about 391 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: both of them. But that's all gone.

The best 463 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 1: match of the week in wrestling there was I've just 464 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: I've been keeping track, Freddy. There was zero dumpster matches 465 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: this week. It was kind a single dumpster match, but 466 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: there was a coffin match with Darby Allen, and I 467 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: think that's that's good enough for me. So my favorite 468 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 1: was the Darby Allen finishes off Brody King and in 469 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: a nice coffin match. I will say this, it's difficult 470 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: for small guys to look believable against monsters, but his 471 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: style and the way he wrestles gives you a chance 472 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: to believe because his style is very jeff Hardy, like, 473 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: all right, I can't punch harder than you, so I'm 474 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: just gonna throw my entire body at you, and we're 475 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: gonna see who breaks first. And if it's me, all right, 476 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: you got me, so I'll get I'll give him that, 477 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: but I would much rather see him wrestling different people. 478 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: And I like Bernie King, but there's one man that 479 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: I fell in love with even more. And he's also 480 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: a French Canadian, I believe, and his best friends with 481 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: your favorite in mind, Kevin Owens, and this is Sammy Zane. 482 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: In no way, shape or form. I'm so excited. I 483 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: don't care if everyone else hates him. You're everybody else 484 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: is wrong, even though it's art and you can't be 485 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: You're totally wrong. If you disagree with this, there is 486 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: no way in hell that his story line should work 487 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: at all. It's ridiculous. Hey hey, usso's Hey Roman, I 488 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: want to be in the bloodline. Dude, please can I 489 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: It's like the one white guy in jiu jitsu class 490 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: trying to brow out with the Samoans and it's like, nah, dude, 491 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: you have to bleed and sweat before they call you oos. 492 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: It's just that's the way it works. And he's so 493 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: endearing and annoying at the same time. It's like that 494 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: old Looney Tunes cartoon with the two dogs, the bulldog 495 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: and the Chihuahua, and he's like, hey, Spike, what do 496 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: you want to do today, Spike? And he's like shut up, smack, 497 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: and like smack says, oh yeah, I talk too much, sorry, Spike. 498 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: It literally is like that, So there's no way they 499 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: should work. It is childish. It is ridiculous. It's a 500 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: child dealing with grown ups. Everything in the USO storyline 501 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 1: is reality based. There's no goofiness. And here comes sammy'sane 502 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: and he just wants to wrestle and be on TV 503 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: and he's talented enough to do so, and he gets 504 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: stuck with this and this son of a bitch makes 505 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: it work. And I don't know how he's a better 506 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: actor than I am. And last Friday was amazing. Drewmack 507 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: tire had to deal with everyone. He's beating up USO's 508 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: Scarlett Bordeaux. They're telling him, Yo, time is up, Jack 509 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: like Cross is coming for everybody's ass, which I'm loving, 510 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: by the way, But he's having to deal with everything, 511 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: and he's gonna give the clay more kick to the 512 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: us SO. And out of nowhere comes maybe maybe the 513 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: second best actor on the roster, but number one in 514 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: my heart, and he jumped into the ring and pushes 515 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: his brother out of the way and takes the boot 516 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: right in the face and lays himself out, proving his work, 517 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: showing his value to not only the w w E universe, 518 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: which I think we'll get rid of that term two 519 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: and we can start saying fans again, which would be great, 520 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: But more importantly, I think finally earning a seat at 521 00:27:56,119 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: the table. I believe Sammy Zane has earned the right 522 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: to call himself a part of the bloodline. I believe 523 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 1: he has earned the right to use the term use 524 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: the bloodline. I believe he should be an honorary Samoan 525 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: and should be offered citizenship in the Great Territory of 526 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: American Samoa. That's it. That's all I have to say, 527 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: agree or disagree. I agreed and tell you said that 528 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: he should be a Samoan. What do you mean an 529 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: honorary Remember that's they give. They give idiots honorary degrees 530 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: all the time. I got offered one from un m 531 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 1: I'm a fool. What are you talking that you could 532 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: get honorary stuff? Bro, Well, I'd like to see it, 533 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: you know, I'd like It's like when Owen Hart was 534 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: in the Nation of Domination, you know, he's he within. 535 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: I think this is kind of like that. I like, 536 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: Sammy's Ain't. He's one of those guys that I'm off 537 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: and on about. You know, it's like a half the 538 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: time I like a Sammy's ain't. Half the time I'm like, 539 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: what's this SKA character he's doing? So I'm with him 540 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: the domination, you know what I mean, stays ain't trying 541 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: to fit in in the bloodline. He's but like, I 542 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: love them run with this for as long as they can. 543 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: It's hilarious. I hope. So. I know they're just gonna 544 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: beat him up and punk him out, but man, I'm 545 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: telling you, I don't know why, but I just love him, man, 546 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: And when he gets a run, people are gonna go 547 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: hard for it. So Drew McIntyre, as the wrestling business goes, 548 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: has been injured. They said that like they're gonna maybe 549 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: give him some time off, maybe maybe maybe it's back 550 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: will be okay by that. I hope, so, man, I hope. 551 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: So Drew is a guy that had the like the 552 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: thankless title run, right, the title run with no fans. 553 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: He won it in front of note It's like when 554 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: the Lakers won the Bubble Championship. It's just it's just different, man, 555 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: And I'm a Lakers fan, but it's a different kind 556 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: into championship and he deserves one, and to get one 557 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: in the UK being a Scott, that's his moment. I mean, 558 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: this had to have been playing for him. So I 559 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: hope you're right and he's just rehabbing like crazy, or look, dude, here, 560 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: let me throw this at you and we'll close with 561 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: with speculative thinking. He's not so hurt that he can't 562 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: have a match, but he is so hurt that he 563 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: can't go very long because he needs to have a surgery. 564 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: But the injury, let's say, it's not going to get 565 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: any worse if he wrestles once more. So he gets 566 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: the match. He wins the match at Clash of the Castle, 567 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: and then on the following Monday Night Raw he loses 568 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: somehow to carry across or over the next couple of 569 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: weeks on TV, and you give the fans of free 570 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: championship match, and that's how you get the title on 571 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: Cross'd like that. I'd love to see Cross just come 572 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: right back and they put the belt on him. How 573 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: exciting would that be? Yeah, now that you say that 574 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: that might be way too fast. I mean there's there's 575 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: rocket ships and there's freaking the Millenium Falcon, you know 576 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: what I mean. That's yeah, that might be too fast. 577 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: But if I would just break my heart for Drew 578 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: if he can't, if he can't pull that home, man, 579 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: just talk about stars not lined enough for you. Wow, 580 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: it's great to end on a bad note. It's not 581 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: a bad you know, just we'll see what happens. It's 582 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,479 Speaker 1: all tentative, tell you what I'll end on this. I 583 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: believe on Friday Night SmackDown during Kofi Kingston's getting annihilated 584 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: by the Viking Raiders with somehow they have Viking shields. 585 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: You would love that. There's a gimmick. And they were 586 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: beating they were beating him with shields and then splashing 587 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: down upon him with massive bodies all over. And I 588 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:51,719 Speaker 1: believe I heard Pat McAfee recite the following smelly, vicious, rude, 589 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: Viking Raiders dragging his body, and I rewounded. I said, 590 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: there's no way. My guy said smelly Viking Raiders talk 591 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: about booking, and I rewounded and I pressed play, and 592 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,239 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, he said Smellyso definitely called him smelly. 593 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: So that's a lighter note. Jeff Any closing thoughts for 594 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: the people, Well, what might be crashed to some people's 595 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: ears and might be sometimes not very thoughtful and kind, 596 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: we can all admit in our darkest truth, and Vikings 597 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: probably are smelly.
