A hair Did you add a photo like 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.760 on the wall, Yes, there are more photos on the wall. 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:22.000 Actually over here you can see my music area, so 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:25.000 uh yeah, a little, little by little, But I think 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:27.320 I need to get a new microphone. That's the problem 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.560 because see the kind of mic that you talk into 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.680 has you know that that padding built around it, so 0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:36.799 a lit'll decrease the echo. What I have is more, 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:41.400 it's more of a direct speaking device. I don't know 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:43.080 how to say it. I just have a pea popper. 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:45.680 I had one of those, yeah, and I got rid 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.639 of it, and so in a in a closed in room, 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:50.520 I sounded great in this one. I sound like I said, 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:56.600 New Jersey won a one point five. Yes, right, well 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:58.880 you'll you'll figure it out. I'm sure. How are you? 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.920 I'm this This is going to sound so ridiculous, but 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:08.520 I'm still exhausted, and I know it's ridiculous, but I 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:13.160 cannot catch up on my sleep, on my work in 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:17.520 the house, my family, Like I'm playing ketch up and 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:23.400 I'm still behind. So is this from your bombastic party 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:27.520 time in the old h Rhode Island? I did. I 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:32.800 partied a little bit. I did because well, let me 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.040 just start off with saying the drive was horrendous. Not 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:40.200 a fan, but I was driving, so I didn't get sick, 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.680 which is a good thing because when I'm driving. I 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:48.960 do not get We lived through that, oh god, but 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:52.840 this one was a longer drive, Yeah it was. It 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:56.520 was paying the ass for sure. But we picked up 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.400 Betty on the way, which was nice because I got 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.000 to spend the weekend with my best friend, obviously, but 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:06.680 she had friends that were coming, okay, and of course 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:13.280 they are drinkers to the utmost degree. And she says 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:16.320 to me on Friday night, we worked till nine o'clock 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:19.560 and she says, look, my friends are coming. I want 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:21.160 to go out, but we're only going to have one 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:24.080 drink and we'll be back by eleven. Okay. Now, this 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:26.440 is a girl that when we do our night's out, 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.840 our girl nights out, we're up in the room by 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:33.320 seven thirty, like you know, and she's in bed by eight. 0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.400 So I'm thinking, okay, eleven's a little steep for her, 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:40.640 but we'll do it, no problem. Well eleven comes eleven thirty, 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:45.680 twelve twelve, and I found one of the guys that 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:48.080 we were he was as much into Disney as me. 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:51.800 Oh okay. We were just vibing and having this Disney 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:55.280 conversation and going over. But the next time I look 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:58.880 at the clock, it says one twenty fifteen. Wow, jeez, 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:01.200 I said, we to go. I had to be up 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:05.200 at seven because the con started at tend the next morning, 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.760 and I had worked from three to nine that on Friday. Yeah, 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:12.279 on Friday, we got there late Thursday night, worked all day, 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.159 you know, well not all day. We went out to lunch, 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:17.320 and then we worked Friday and up until nine, and 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:20.839 then we were out until almost one thirty in the morning. Jesus, 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.680 look at you. I said, well, who am I? I 0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:26.440 don't do this crap, you know. But I only had 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:29.360 one drink. It wasn't like I sat there drinking like 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:32.840 a fish. I had one drink and Betty and I 0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:36.359 split some fish and chips, which were delicious. Murphy's is 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:38.560 the name of the bar, so they if you're ever in. 0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:40.800 I don't even know where I was, so somewhere in 0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:42.960 Rhode Island and you see a bar called Murphy's. It 0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:44.800 was really good. It was near the Omni. I stayed 0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:49.200 at the Omni Hotel. It was beautiful. Saturday was very long, 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:54.799 very long. It was ten to seven, very long time. Wow, 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:59.119 that's a long time. It was a long time to sign. 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:02.800 They had a green room which was lovely because all 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:05.800 the food was taken care of breakfast, lunch, dinner. You 0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:07.479 just took a break, went up to the green room 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.960 ate your food. It was great. It was attached to 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:13.719 a mall, so if you wanted to go shop or 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.479 go to the mall for food, they had a food court. 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:20.880 It was nice. But Saturday was really really long. But 0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:24.360 it's a really funny story. I was we were all 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:30.520 in catering, so it in my group. It was myself, Bubba, 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:34.880 Velvet Sky, and Matt Hardy. Okay, it was the four 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:40.160 of us. Then like JBL, Jerry Lawler, Honky tonk Man, 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:44.440 they were in our section. Trying to think who else 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.239 was there? I can't remember, but like I always found 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:50.480 JBL next to me at my table. Talked about him 0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:52.800 a lot on the air. Yeah, we were always eating 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:56.040 lunch together or something.

I don't know 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:19.160 if New England has a happy pill up there, but 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:22.920 everybody was. I remember wanting to bump into her in 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:27.240 about nineteen ninety five. She looks great, she looked cute. 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:30.439 She had on like jean shorts with the little tool belt. 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:33.959 Her and Al were like next to each other at 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:39.200 the smart smart, very very cute. Those were. Oh and 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.040 I was in the I was in the elevator with 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:44.440 Michael Myers from the New Halloween movie. Yes, the I 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:47.280 forget his name, the big tall, big dude. He reminded 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.680 me of the Undertaker a little bit. He had a 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:53.360 beanie hat on and his eyes reminded me of the Undertaker. 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:57.560 But he was very as well. Yeah, but you know, 0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:02.640 very very long days long Sunday. We worked from like 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:06.000 ten to like it was supposed to be at all five, 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.400 but you know, at that's this point, it's calming down 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:09.920 a little. So I think we left at like four 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:15.720 thirty time, while we had like a six plus hour 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:17.839 ride home. So I wanted to get the hell out 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.079 of there as soon as I could. But it was fun. 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:24.040 You know, it's just long. Let me ask you this, 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:25.800 So go back to Friday, Okay, go back to the 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:29.800 first day. So comic cons tend to be a little 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:33.480 different than you know, a wrestling convention sort of it. 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:38.040 They've kind of taken on a similar kind of look 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.640 over the last couple of years as wrestling conventions grow, 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.320 Comic cons has been around forever. What did you see 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.199 about the biggest difference between going to a full blown 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:49.800 comic con where everybody's there versus just a wrestling convention 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.800 where it's just wrestling fans. I had brought up this 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:56.600 question to the people around me. I said, you see 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.840 how wrestling fans and I'm not trying to disrespect wrestling case. 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:03.240 You know, we love you guys, right, but they are 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:05.840 special sometimes and they dress up as their you know, 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:09.840 their their characters, and they have their belts and like that, 0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:11.920 they were screaming at Bubble get the tables, like they 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.160 were really screaming at them, Get the tables. And he 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:16.440 was like sitting there like, okay, you know what I mean. 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.720 I said, do you think that like the movie actors 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.400 or the voiceover actors or the TV do you do 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.360 their fans do this stuff? Do they scream lines from 0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:30.520 movies to them and dress like them? And because there 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:34.160 was there was a whole level of star wars right well, 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:38.040 when you would go to catering and you got off 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:41.160 that elevator. All you start was Star Wars like Chewbacca, 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:45.280 Like this dude was like eight feet So I walked around. 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:51.520 That was right. No, there was like three R two 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:54.079 D two's. There was a C three P O walking around. 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:57.679 There were uh people I don't even know their name, Stormtroopers. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:11:59.959 There were like and they had backdrops and you could 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.040 take pictures. But it was like it seemed like it 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:05.960 was a whole level, you know what I mean. I 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.720 walked through because Betty had to get somebody's autograph for 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:10.920 her nephew. So we walked through where like the TV 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.960 movie actors were seated and they were just kind of 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.600 no one was really interacting with each other. They were 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:19.720 just kind of at their boots, when like the wrestlers 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.079 are always like talking to each other and just a 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:24.720 little different. I noticed it was. It was a tad 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.560 different because most of those guys have like an agent 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:31.360 with them. We have handlers. But it's it's a little 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:37.360 different dynamic. The Warriors, which is a very popular movie 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:41.160 that I never heard of. Yeah, okay, they were all 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:47.560 across from us, the whole cast. Okay, the man, the 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:50.120 one man, Tommy, he's the nicest guy in the world. 0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:52.040 He kept coming over and talking to me and Betty, 0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:56.200 asking us all these questions, putting his good aura around 0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:58.880 and doing this. He was doing this and putting good 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:01.679 vibes and juju on us and all this good stuff. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.040 And he had asked us to dinner. And here was 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:08.599 the pitch, Ladies, We're gonna go to this restaurant called Anthony's, 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:12.120 and you know, seems like it's really nice. The owner 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:14.520 invited us and I said, oh, and first it was 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:17.160 seven thirty, then went to eight thirty and blah blah blah. 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:20.200 And he says, and listen, we have a coupon for 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:23.200 twenty percent off, and you know, we'll split the bill 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.520 and it'll be good. And I said, well, with an 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:29.560 offer like that, how can I refuse split the bill 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:34.079 with the warriors. Just that was the That was the pitch. Well, 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:39.280 we didn't make it, unfortunately we started. But they were 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:42.920 the nicest gentleman, really really nice, and they were bringing 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.200 us wine. I don't drink wine. Batty was drinking all 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:48.480 the wine. I did do a shot with velvet of 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:51.680 her beloved patron that I thought. I was pissed. I thought, 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:56.560 id die. Oh it it burned like hell that's her drink. 0:13:56.600 --> 0:14:00.040 But I can't, I can't do I said, no, no, no, no. 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:04.319 It was bad, but it was It was nice being 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:09.360 with my friends and getting to hang out. And you know, 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:14.320 I would do it again in a heartbeat. So it's 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.680 a kind of Rhode Island Comic Con is so big. 0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:19.240 It's the kind of show you could do the next 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.000 one and have a whole giant three day crowd again. 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:25.480 It's there. It is such a big show. It's a 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:29.000 big show. But they did have supposedly they had mask 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:33.200 commandates and they were saying because of COVID, the attendance 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.280 was down. Oh wow, geez, and you were and you 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.840 were still busy. I was busy. Yeah, I mean there 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:41.160 were people there. You know. I was happy with what 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:44.240 I did. But they like they were telling me, like, 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:47.520 if you would have came in twenty nineteen, it would 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.800 have blew your mind and almost thanks for the information. Yeah, 0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:53.800 Like it was mine first time, it was Bubba's first time. 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:55.280 Me and him were looking at each other like we 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:56.960 picked the wrong year in the debut here, you know 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:59.560 what I mean. It was still great. It was still great. 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.960 We still did well. But they were saying attendance was 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.800 down due to COVID. I heard Matt Hardy had a 0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:09.040 pretty big line. He did have a well he wasn't 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.120 there on Friday, Okay, it's only there Saturday and Sunday 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:14.920 and her team. He had to fly and he didn't 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:16.640 come like I was there at ten. I think he 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:19.440 showed up at like maybe one or two. Okay, So 0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:22.520 people were like waiting for him. Of course, you know, 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:24.840 and you're doing the delete thing. The whole time he 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:27.760 was doing delete, he was doing the big money. Some 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.400 kid had like he wanted to post with him, and 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:32.880 I don't know if he was holding like sixty dollars 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.320 in his hand and he wanted the big money. Matt. 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.120 He says, Oh, here's the money, Maco's hold on a second. 0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:41.520 He goes and he takes ten hundred dollars bills. Oh jee, 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:43.440 He goes, this is the big money, and I go, 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.400 I have three dollars. If you need any anybody looking 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:50.120 for singles, I got page. Perhaps that was funny, but 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:54.920 I met our boy Pat from Patroons. Oh wow, cool, awesome, beautiful, 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:58.200 beautiful family. I met his lovely wife. His kids are adorable. 0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.880 They can't hung out for a little bit and said hello. 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.840 And they don't like crowds, so I am pleased that 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:08.920 they came to see me. So it was wonderful meeting him. 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.240 It was just it was a good time. You know. 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:15.480 I enjoy these things. But again, it was long and 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:18.640 I was very tired. And the drive. I mean when 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:21.120 I walked in the house, I just was like, I 0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:25.760 ripped my eyelashes off in the kitchen because everybody was asleep. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.520 I couldn't even go wash my fings. I had to 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:31.040 get a baby wipe and get the makeup off because 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.480 I couldn't get in my bathroom because everybody was sleeping. 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:36.600 And then your husband comes downstairs bleary eye, and he's 0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:39.520 like this, there's a bug on the floor. He starts 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:42.280 stopping on the last he goes, oh, he texted me, 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.120 goes glad you're home.

Did you think you're gonna come into a 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:54.400 big surprise come home? I know it wasn't like that, 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:56.920 but it was good to come back. And I'm doing 0:16:56.960 --> 0:17:01.240 it again this weekend. Yeah, you are so now every day. 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:04.200 So for the drive, right, So that was about So 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:06.520 our drive was about four hours and this one was 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:10.200 about six. That's a different kind of six because it's 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:14.639 got you're going up, like up the coast. What was 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:16.800 like the breaking point where you were like, oh my god, 0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:19.120 we're never going to get there. This is taking for effort. Well, 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:22.720 here's what happened. So I drove to my girlfriend's house, Batty. 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.640 She lives in Connecticut. I drove to her house, took 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:27.840 a p break. Okay, so you broke it up a 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:29.800 little bit. But then I said to her, would you 0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:31.840 mind driving the rest of the way, and she said 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:34.760 not not at all. So she actually drove the rest 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:37.520 of the way into Rhode Island. Okay, So I got 0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:39.960 to sit on the passenger side, and because I got 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:43.359 up and my ass, cheeks were numb. I'm sure they 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:46.120 were numb, and I was I was trying to shake 0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:48.840 it off, you know, I couldn't move. It was just 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:50.879 it's a long jome and we got caught in a 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:55.919 ton of traffic on the George Washington Bridge track. I 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.000 was pissed off. It was stop go. Then we were 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:00.919 sitting not moving, and it just I think it was 0:18:00.960 --> 0:18:02.639 longer than sixty hours to be honest with you. There 0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:05.520 was so much traffic on a Thursday. I said, do 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.920 these people work? How dare they Thursday? What is going 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:10.879 on with these people? You know what I mean, like 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:15.000 got a job? People get off the bridge. But you know, 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:18.400 it is what it is. We got there and safely, 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:21.200 which was the important part, that is the most important part. Yeah, 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.040 it looked great. You know. I saw the pictures I saw. 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:26.560 I saw you know, Rob Feinstein's pictures all weekend.

He won't drive on highways, 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.120 so of course I have to. Really and he's freaking out. 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:41.640 He would do this study like if we were my grandmother. 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.280 Oh they're breaking, Oh stop, oh god, and he's grabbing 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:49.200 his leg, he's grabbing me.
