Speaker 1: I got a little one. Oh yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 1: I'm working. Let them. We got an ECW T shirt
Speaker 1: on today. You're trying to always representing, Yeah, what are
Speaker 1: we doing? How we do? What's going on? Guys? Uh?
Speaker 1: Have you back a year? I was thinking about that
Speaker 1: over a year over. Yeah, he was in the o
Speaker 1: G run of guests. The first thing myself I thought
Speaker 1: he was on like about seventy months ago. I was
Speaker 1: lobbying for you to come back before. I mean, but
Speaker 1: you know that goes. I said, no, I don't want
Speaker 1: that geek on my shows and ship. No. God, how
Speaker 1: have you been since we've last talked, which was five
Speaker 1: minutes ago? Crazy? Busy? You know? With Impact? What are
Speaker 1: you doing? I mean two kids when I'm at home,
Speaker 1: my beautiful wife to deal with, and then you know,
Speaker 1: I Impact wrestling duties. That contract allows me to do
Speaker 1: independent wrestling dates as well as what I'm most busy
Speaker 1: with is the my podcast, the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast,
Speaker 1: so which Franny finally got a little taste of in Boston.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about was my favorite because like when we
Speaker 1: asked people to do stuff with this, there was like
Speaker 1: what toys? I don't get it. And then after they're
Speaker 1: just like a static and I think you were like,
Speaker 1: you know, par for the course, like everything is the
Speaker 1: same reaction. I yeah, like I get it. Well, I
Speaker 1: got it before. I understand, like, I know adults are
Speaker 1: into figures. I understand that I had. You know, I
Speaker 1: did a show with Brian and Matt and I was
Speaker 1: on the stage and I said doll and they booed
Speaker 1: me and I felt it too. Sorrightful said that you
Speaker 1: deserve that. So I guess, well, for me, it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, I look at it as like I got
Speaker 1: a Barbie doll, but I guess I shouldn't look well
Speaker 1: in a way, yeah, Barbies are collectible and very expensive
Speaker 1: and meaning to call an action figure a doll, yeah,
Speaker 1: because to me, a doll is a doll dollar. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like you know, soft goods clothing and the flocked hair,
Speaker 1: you know, things like figure. You know, you're you know
Speaker 1: your raven figure was punching whatever. You know that that's
Speaker 1: where that term came from. Yeah, whatever you give it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, although I'm sorry. They do have a
Speaker 1: lot of accessories now though, so they accessorized with outfits
Speaker 1: and uh so it's a little different. Yeah. Of course
Speaker 1: I never meant any disrespect by calling it a doll.
Speaker 1: I just always thought they were I thought that was
Speaker 1: an acceptable term. But from now on, I promise you
Speaker 1: I will call them in action. You want, you want.
Speaker 1: You won the Major Mark silver, so it's all right.
Speaker 1: I well, now let's get back because first of all,
Speaker 1: and I think I impressed some people because I knew
Speaker 1: that figures in a bag were called Lucy's a loose figure, yeah,
Speaker 1: instead of yes mintun card, Like these ones behind me
Speaker 1: are mint on card. Yes see I didn't know that,
Speaker 1: So okay, so mental card. But I knew they were
Speaker 1: lucies if they were just in a bin and you
Speaker 1: could just pull them out. So I got I got
Speaker 1: a couple of points for that, but everything else just
Speaker 1: went over my head. So we did this thing in Boston,
Speaker 1: which was so fun. Thank you. Again. I think I
Speaker 1: thank you about five thousand times already. But it was
Speaker 1: really it was a good weekend. It was fun. But
Speaker 1: I did your boozing with the Toys thing for you
Speaker 1: guys because you were too busy to partake. At one
Speaker 1: point we were bouncing in and that we had a
Speaker 1: lot of duties. I know, I'm not saying that in
Speaker 1: a bad way. It's like you, you know, we did
Speaker 1: our signing and you guys were handling whatever, and then
Speaker 1: you did your signing, so that was open. And I
Speaker 1: don't remember who had answered me, but they said would
Speaker 1: you jump on? So I said, yeah, sure, but I
Speaker 1: was already like six mind ties in at that point.
Speaker 1: I don't remember anything except for an Australian gentleman talking
Speaker 1: to me and I kept saying, ooh, I love your voice.
Speaker 1: Boozing with the Toys is once a month, we go
Speaker 1: live in our Patreon for just our patreons, and we
Speaker 1: it's two hours or more and it's it's literally just
Speaker 1: like raw uncensored. Like the original concept was, like you
Speaker 1: get a little, you know, boozed up and get some
Speaker 1: liquid courage and maybe maybe hit eBay and buy things
Speaker 1: that you probably wouldn't buy with you know, a sober mind.
Speaker 1: That what ury day store? No no, no, no no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: like just anybody like, hey man, I've been looking at
Speaker 1: this rock figure that's three hundred dollars, but I've been
Speaker 1: kind of a little bitch about buying it. But now
Speaker 1: I've had a couple of PBRs. I'm just gonna I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna pick it up like that guy. I thought.
Speaker 1: I thought this was like you guys had merchandise, and
Speaker 1: I thought I was selling your merchandise. Because somebody put
Speaker 1: a lanyard in my hand and I said, ooh, I
Speaker 1: don't even know what it said. And I said, ooh,
Speaker 1: look at this. This lanyard is worth I'm going to
Speaker 1: try and sell it for one hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 1: and I'm holding it up or whatever I said. And
Speaker 1: then Matt comes over and he goes, no, twelve ninety nine.
Speaker 1: I go twelve nine. Get out of here. I said,
Speaker 1: you're underestimating yourself. This is one hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 1: I thought I was. I was picking up things and
Speaker 1: showing them, trying to tell you it's a hangout, it's
Speaker 1: whatever you want, you know, whatever. People we bring, We
Speaker 1: bring patreons in, patreons in. We talk about whatever they
Speaker 1: want to talk about, talking through purchases that they're thinking
Speaker 1: about making. It's fun. I need to is it one
Speaker 1: archive because I would like to watch. That's another little
Speaker 1: perk of it. Once it's gone, it's it goes away.
Speaker 1: We try to make it like I can't miss event.
Speaker 1: You know, well, I guess what if you missed this
Speaker 1: broad you missed it all because I heard that the
Speaker 1: post the next day are all about you and Joe
Speaker 1: Shoes stealing the show. Me and Joe Shoes. We are, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're a couple now and he's my best friend. Great
Speaker 1: talk shown up, yeah talk. Well, he pitched that he
Speaker 1: pitched a dating show to me and good you might
Speaker 1: be on something segment for you. I'm honored because I
Speaker 1: think he only got like ten pins made and he
Speaker 1: gave me one of them, so I'm one of the ten.
Speaker 1: Sell that for one hundred bucks if you get in
Speaker 1: the gym. Well, if I ever do boz And with
Speaker 1: the toys on wine, I'm going to put it all
Speaker 1: there for one hundred and fifty dollars. But no, it
Speaker 1: was It's a fun concept. I mean you guys are
Speaker 1: really onto something that I never even knew existed. Like
Speaker 1: there there there was so much going on. I just
Speaker 1: kept looking around saying, these guys are gonna be millionaires
Speaker 1: by the time they're forty. Seriously, I think that word
Speaker 1: to use fun is like kind of what the root
Speaker 1: of all of it is. And like I think we
Speaker 1: took away like you know, we were these two big,
Speaker 1: bad wrestlers and we kind of just like drew the
Speaker 1: curtains back and be like, look, man, we've been collecting
Speaker 1: wrestling figures our whole lives and into our careers, and
Speaker 1: like we kind of came out of our like toy
Speaker 1: collecting closets, and we've just been so transparent with everybody,
Speaker 1: and just everything we do is just so fun, Like
Speaker 1: it's just meant it's for just pure fun. And then
Speaker 1: people come on board and they're like, how have I
Speaker 1: not been doing this? You know, it's just and for me,
Speaker 1: but a lot of it is the sentimental, like like
Speaker 1: these figures behind me were like my gateway to pro wrestling,
Speaker 1: Like I found wrestling and I found these toys kind
Speaker 1: of at the same time. And then my creativity ran wild,
Speaker 1: pretending that I was in charge and making matches and
Speaker 1: running my shows and stuff, and it kind of like
Speaker 1: pushed my love of pro wrestling, you know, So it
Speaker 1: kind of it's kind of like it all comes like
Speaker 1: full circle kind of thing. Yeah, it always it's a
Speaker 1: constant reminder of why I got involved in this business
Speaker 1: in the first place, you know, because it's fun, you know. Well,
Speaker 1: it was it was so different from like I remember
Speaker 1: you telling me on the phone, like this is different
Speaker 1: than a show, Like this is something completely gon. So
Speaker 1: when I got there, I didn't know what to expect,
Speaker 1: and it was she was gonna get a reaction. Oh.
Speaker 1: I was so scared. Oh my god. Because they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna play Shane's music. I'm like, no, they're gonna
Speaker 1: want Shane Douglas. They're not gonna want me. And I
Speaker 1: was so nervous. And then they're just like, here have
Speaker 1: the my time, and I was like, okay, I don't
Speaker 1: think I've had that much sugar, And like a decade
Speaker 1: I was dead. The next day I had like I
Speaker 1: was on the airplane like this. I was like, what
Speaker 1: did you do? It wasn't that sugar for me? It
Speaker 1: was both, yeah, but it was while I was doing it.
Speaker 1: I was feeling no pain. It was no. You have
Speaker 1: like two or three, You're like, wow, this is the
Speaker 1: most refreshing drink ever. And then I had six and
Speaker 1: then I ordered whiskey like a dope. That's a tough
Speaker 1: trying to climb a chain link fence and in the
Speaker 1: middle of climbing, I got so dizzy and I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a bump. I was going to fall
Speaker 1: backwards and take a bump, and thank god I didn't.
Speaker 1: Then I rolled underneath and but no, getting back to
Speaker 1: the show in general, like I didn't know what to expect,
Speaker 1: and it was it was such a different concept, like
Speaker 1: it was like a state. It's like nothing else. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. It was. It blew my mind, like how
Speaker 1: funy And you know this is how stupid I am.
Speaker 1: So I meet I didn't realize it was Mark Sterling
Speaker 1: from a bus. He doesn't have that gray hair out
Speaker 1: and flowing. You didn't reize him. I'm twenty years younger too,
Speaker 1: with like a hat on, so you don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said, nice to meet you, and that's the That's
Speaker 1: the most we talked, I think, except when I was
Speaker 1: saying probably betting nervous around you too. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I'm so nice and your students were so nice,
Speaker 1: and it was it was so all our guests. We
Speaker 1: always just say, hey, you're going to see me Mark
Speaker 1: and Brosky and that's all you know you're coming to
Speaker 1: see and then our guests are always a surprised, have
Speaker 1: no idea. So that's been another like foundation of the
Speaker 1: live show. My favorite example is like Delo Brown and
Speaker 1: then this is like everyone kind of basically has the
Speaker 1: same experience that you had. They're like, what am I doing?
Speaker 1: And then by the end they're having the best time ever.
Speaker 1: But we had Delo Brown come and long story short,
Speaker 1: in our major pod world, we had this like side
Speaker 1: show where we like fantasy booked action figures into Feds whatever,
Speaker 1: and Brosky put this tag team title on dal So
Speaker 1: we had him come out with the tag team title
Speaker 1: and he got this like Attitude era mega pop and
Speaker 1: he's just like ah, like raging on his entrance like
Speaker 1: this epic pop and then he's my boss. I see
Speaker 1: him an impact. Like two weeks later, I'm catching up
Speaker 1: with him and I'm like, dude, thanks for doing that show.
Speaker 1: You have fun. He goes doom. The show was fun
Speaker 1: as my old dog, and he was so fired up.
Speaker 1: The stale from it because it's just like they made
Speaker 1: you know, the fans are so appreciated to see everybody
Speaker 1: and everyone gets these awesome reactions. It's just like I said,
Speaker 1: it's pure fun. Yeah, it was fun. What what was
Speaker 1: the belt that Andrew? The guy Andrew had. We initiated
Speaker 1: a hashtag Major Fitness Challenge and people use that on
Speaker 1: social media. They use it in our Patreon Facebook group,
Speaker 1: and we kind of just like encourage people to work out,
Speaker 1: eat healthier. You know, you don't have to like do anything,
Speaker 1: just kind of look at your life situation and just
Speaker 1: try a little better. So we did a contest that
Speaker 1: ended at that live show where the winner got a
Speaker 1: eight belt with the with the logo on it. Oh
Speaker 1: that's cute. Okay, you've been using that person, Andrew Husfar,
Speaker 1: it's one of our fans. He'd been using the hashtag
Speaker 1: like every day posting pictures from the gym, and you
Speaker 1: know we picked the deserving winner and stuff. Right, that's
Speaker 1: so cool. I loved it. I loved it. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: been it's been a blessing. I mean Brosky like three
Speaker 1: years ago, said hey, you want to start a podcast
Speaker 1: about wrestling figures, And I was like why, Like everyone
Speaker 1: has podcasts like so lame, right, And then the more
Speaker 1: I thought, I was like, well, I mean we're literally
Speaker 1: talking about this ship in the car anyway, why don't
Speaker 1: we just record it and see what happens? You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Yeah, It's just it's been like one
Speaker 1: of the blessings of my life. It's just been so cool.
Speaker 1: It's a world. It's a you guys created this old
Speaker 1: people and we've built the community literally within itself of
Speaker 1: people like it's so cool to see, you know, and
Speaker 1: seeing you know, Shane's been at the show too. You
Speaker 1: guys created There's another one that was like he walked
Speaker 1: in like what am I gang? No one knows what's
Speaker 1: going on, but I followed the you know, the trading
Speaker 1: cards and seeing like them being resold. It's like unbelievable that,
Speaker 1: oh man, and we just we just worked on We
Speaker 1: just worked on this trading card set that's going to
Speaker 1: like blow the roof off with all these autographs and
Speaker 1: stuff that we collected from you know, paid our friends
Speaker 1: in the business and got like really cool people involved,
Speaker 1: and like we're still keeping sets like that that's going
Speaker 1: to like knock people's socks off. That love trading cards.
Speaker 1: So we're very excited about that. It blows my mind.
Speaker 1: I you know, you had talked to me prior, like
Speaker 1: weeks prior, and you sent me a text and you
Speaker 1: showed me the eight by ten that you made and
Speaker 1: you said, I'm too excited. I need to show you now.
Speaker 1: This is so cool. Blah blah blah. Yeah. I didn't
Speaker 1: expect you guys to do anything else for me when
Speaker 1: we were there, and so we did our little stick
Speaker 1: where we were mad at each other or whatever, and
Speaker 1: or I'm mad at you and you know, you're trying
Speaker 1: to butter me up, and you pull off the micro
Speaker 1: brawler and I'm gonna be honest with you, I didn't
Speaker 1: even know what a micro brawler was. Wow. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm looking, I'm staring you're holding this thing up and
Speaker 1: Matt's going look at the screen, look at the screen.
Speaker 1: And I'm looking at the screen and I go, what
Speaker 1: if I had no clue what this was? And it's
Speaker 1: it's a little action figure is out. Yeah, They're wildly popular,
Speaker 1: and the ones that came out like initially then when
Speaker 1: people weren't collecting them so like die Hard, are are
Speaker 1: worth so much money? Is ridiculous, hundreds of dollars like crazy.
Speaker 1: I love mine because her boobs are so bigger. I know.
Speaker 1: I was very particular when the designing I went. I mean,
Speaker 1: I told my guy, like what it should look like? Yes,
Speaker 1: thank you for making my boobs look that's another thing.
Speaker 1: Fraining doubted me, and she goes, no, one's going to
Speaker 1: want this, it's not going to sell out. I think
Speaker 1: if the site was working properly, it happened to just
Speaker 1: coincide with the same weekend to see ing punk like
Speaker 1: basically shut the whole site down for days, But uh,
Speaker 1: I don't think it lasted half an hour. Two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty of them right I was gone. There was
Speaker 1: three hundred of them. Three hundred okay, yeah, wow, yeah,
Speaker 1: there was three hundred of them. And I got one,
Speaker 1: and everybody was texting me, message Ryan and get some
Speaker 1: some more. Dylan was like, okay, are you giving me one?
Speaker 1: I know, I literally have one more than what I
Speaker 1: was going to suggest to you. And I was going
Speaker 1: to do this off air, but who cares, We'll do it.
Speaker 1: Off air. We can block it out if it's if
Speaker 1: it's no, it's a big deal. What you need to
Speaker 1: do is talk to the Prostates and if you want,
Speaker 1: I can do it where they could change the red
Speaker 1: outfit to a white outfit and do a variant that
Speaker 1: you can just sell your own. My god, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, you can have I think I think
Speaker 1: you can do it for me. Yeah, I want to
Speaker 1: sit home and package up three hundred frames. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: you just tell them. I mean they could do it,
Speaker 1: or they could send you the three hundred and you
Speaker 1: could do it and you sign them and sell them. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to make you do the work for me.
Speaker 1: I'm saying you could suggest it. Okay, sure, thanks Bryan,
Speaker 1: but you would have to buy buy the order from them,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I get it. Well, we can talk
Speaker 1: more later. But I just an idea. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 1: even know what they were. And it's the cutest little
Speaker 1: thing and I love it, and I kept it something
Speaker 1: that's like wildly popular. It's so crazy how popular they've
Speaker 1: gotten in like a short amount of time. Very collectible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I had no clue even when I'm staring at the screen,
Speaker 1: what's clueless, I said, I don't know it a little bit. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's very much well, I said. And then when they
Speaker 1: told me what it was, I was like, Oh, I'm
Speaker 1: going to cry. It's so touching. And that's like, don't cry.
Speaker 1: And I was like, Oh, don't heal me. This is
Speaker 1: my moment. Just let me enjoy it. You know, he's
Speaker 1: healing me. I was like, come on, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was a good time. Tell us about Live ten.
Speaker 1: It's in Las Vegas. Live ten is in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: It's going to be October twenty third, where you're basically
Speaker 1: trying to encourage people to hit Live ten on Friday
Speaker 1: night and then bound for glory. The biggest h impact
Speaker 1: restl pay per view of the year is the following night,
Speaker 1: so you can double up. Okay, weekend of it. Because
Speaker 1: they're on Salemajor WFO dot com, they're already rocking and rolling.
Speaker 1: There's only one hundred and fifty and say, we're about
Speaker 1: halfway there. We understand that, you know, the last couple
Speaker 1: of shows have been selling out in like ten minutes,
Speaker 1: but they're very East Coast based. This is our first
Speaker 1: venture to the West coast and it's Las Vegas. We
Speaker 1: understand it's very expensive and it's a big ask, but
Speaker 1: we think it'll be fun. We know it's gonna be fun,
Speaker 1: but we think it'll be a opportunity for the West
Speaker 1: Coast people to you know, make that drive whatever they
Speaker 1: got to do to be there. So I think you'll
Speaker 1: sell out before then. It's at a really cool, really
Speaker 1: cool place called the Nerd Bar, which Matt went to
Speaker 1: this weekend to scout out for us. We already booked it.
Speaker 1: They had instead of a mechanical bull, they have a
Speaker 1: mechanical like dildo, which I've never seen before. What. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like a big like penis looking thing and you
Speaker 1: ride that instead of say, can only women ride it?
Speaker 1: I mean, it's definitely gonna be good for some photo ops.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that I would have wrote it if
Speaker 1: I want to get the orange spoggle up there on that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh he'll do it. Oh no back yeah maybe not
Speaker 1: good for his back. No, you have to be careful
Speaker 1: with this back. If I was booked, I would have
Speaker 1: did it, just just saying, but you know, is that
Speaker 1: a big plea in Vegas? Vegas Baby Brainy would blow
Speaker 1: us off and hit the hit the poker table, So one,
Speaker 1: did you come up with the most professional wrestler name? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I did. Actually, it was just kind of like an accident.
Speaker 1: The gist of it is Gallows. Luca is like one
Speaker 1: of my best friends in the business. We both we
Speaker 1: all got fired in the same day whatever it was,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty of us whatever. And he he's the ultimate hustler,
Speaker 1: carneie guy, at least of my generation that I know of, Like,
Speaker 1: he's just non stop go. So he was talking to somebody.
Speaker 1: He's like, there's this TV deal blah blah blah, We're
Speaker 1: gonna film this like show blah blah blah. I need
Speaker 1: you just send me a promo. So I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: And this is very early on in like the ninety
Speaker 1: days of being fired, and I went to my school
Speaker 1: and I just had one of my students gonna help
Speaker 1: me out. I was just was kind of like riffing,
Speaker 1: like saying shit about myself, and I was just getting
Speaker 1: so fired up. I said, I'm the most professional wrestler
Speaker 1: and this is just something I just kind of said.
Speaker 1: And then as I got into talks with Impact, I
Speaker 1: had that used that promo. I sent that to them
Speaker 1: as well, and then everyone there, like Scott Thea Moore
Speaker 1: and all the writers and Don Kallis were all kind
Speaker 1: of like, Prince of Queens is cool, but that that's
Speaker 1: the name we want. We think that's better. There's something
Speaker 1: to that. And I was like, you know what, I agree,
Speaker 1: So just kind of fluke thing that was was definitely
Speaker 1: a blessing. I like it. I felt like it's like
Speaker 1: my fresh coat of paint kind of Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: like it too good. That's a good name. And how
Speaker 1: did you, uh, whose idea was it to put you
Speaker 1: with Sam? That was one of the writer's idea. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I kind of look at that Sam is a
Speaker 1: student of actually this guy Trey Miguel who's there. He's
Speaker 1: not actually my student, if you can figure that out.
Speaker 1: He had been coming and like driving in and kind
Speaker 1: of paying his dues and doing jobs and stuff. And
Speaker 1: I think what impact thought was like, there's something to
Speaker 1: this guy's look is so unique and he's working really hard. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they wanted that's a real firm By the way, I
Speaker 1: thought that was the last TV. I thought that was
Speaker 1: just how he like wakes up in the morning. But
Speaker 1: that's that's a perm like his hair like mine and
Speaker 1: his mom is a hairdresser and does it for him.
Speaker 1: So the old school gimmick at all to me last
Speaker 1: TV and I was like hilarious. Yeah, I was like, no, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: so then they I mean, it makes sense. It was
Speaker 1: like the evolution of the most professional wrestler that I
Speaker 1: you know, I extend my learning treat of these young
Speaker 1: ins and stuff. And I don't know if you're an
Speaker 1: a spanded down fan, but if you are and you
Speaker 1: watch my promos and things I do with him, I've
Speaker 1: just channeled my inner like Kenny Powers, and he's my
Speaker 1: Stevie Janowski basically, And it's been a The dynamic between
Speaker 1: you guys is very good. Yeah, very good. And you
Speaker 1: play off each other. Well I'm sorry, Chad, go ahead, No,
Speaker 1: you can see it exactly, the cadence, the style you exactly,
Speaker 1: He's right on the money, It's exactly. And you see,
Speaker 1: it's been pretty fun. I like, I like the pairing
Speaker 1: a lot. Well, why don't you tell us where they
Speaker 1: can find you? Tell us a little bit about your
Speaker 1: school and if anybody wants to just had a big
Speaker 1: show Creative Pro Wrestling, It's in Hicksville, New York. Did
Speaker 1: anybody bump in the pool. Oh man, do you don't
Speaker 1: know about this? No, because Mary Kate was at my
Speaker 1: house okay before she came to see you guys, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: and she sends me this picture and she goes, look
Speaker 1: there's a pool. And so I text Hack because he
Speaker 1: told Mary Kate Telfrey Tinge to text me we're doing
Speaker 1: an appearance. And I said, look, it's not nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: seven anymore. You got to get yourself over. No one
Speaker 1: knows who you are. Take a bump in the pool
Speaker 1: and everybody will remember it. I wish so I knew
Speaker 1: the show is at YMCA. This isn't creative pro By
Speaker 1: the way, this, I had two shows this weekend. This
Speaker 1: was a SWF in New Jersey. So I had brought
Speaker 1: in Rich Swan for the weekend. Me and rich Swan
Speaker 1: were making all these times. We had a signing, we
Speaker 1: did my show, this show, and we walked into this
Speaker 1: and I wish we were being filmed because we were
Speaker 1: just like jaw dropped. I'm assuming this is an Olympic size.
Speaker 1: It was the biggest pool I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 1: I mean it was massive, like a football field sized pool.
Speaker 1: And then over in the corner eighty bitty little sixteen
Speaker 1: foot ring with like if you got shit cand on
Speaker 1: one side of the ring maybe eight feet into the water,
Speaker 1: that would have been a great bump. This is the
Speaker 1: big problem. So as soon as we had walked in
Speaker 1: and pieced all this together, they were having a talent meeting,
Speaker 1: and I thought, this is going to be the hey,
Speaker 1: nobody go in the pool because this match is going
Speaker 1: in the pool kind of talk, because then everybody would
Speaker 1: want to do a pool spot when there's a football
Speaker 1: size pool next to the ring. And basically it was
Speaker 1: the lady who owned the YMCA saying you are forbidden
Speaker 1: to go in this pool. It was the complete opposite,
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if it was like COVID reasons
Speaker 1: or health reasons, whatever, She's like absolutely forbidden, Like they'll
Speaker 1: never be the show here again if you do this.
Speaker 1: Really threaten everybody, because I would have loved to like
Speaker 1: speared somebody through there and just get the clip online
Speaker 1: or whatever, but wasn't happening. And the real downfall was
Speaker 1: my match included anytime somebody was on the floor. I
Speaker 1: mean it was a nice house. Actually, there's a decent
Speaker 1: amount of people, like three undred people. They would go
Speaker 1: pooh pooh like a pool. Cham would breakout like no
Speaker 1: matter what, because it's right, like you can't ignore it.
Speaker 1: So then then there's no payoff for these people. I know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so totally unfortunate. Well but so so indie rific. We'll
Speaker 1: call that one so typical of Indian. It was the
Speaker 1: big one. This is a giant wineca There was like
Speaker 1: a basketball court. It could have been on because it
Speaker 1: was a beautiful day. This could have been outside, like
Speaker 1: one of options here. I was like, all right, dang,
Speaker 1: I saw that pool. I was like, I one hack
Speaker 1: to just do something crazy. Hack was in full hack mode.
Speaker 1: He wanted out of there. I shared the table. I
Speaker 1: share a table with him. So oh god, all right,
Speaker 1: so you're on you're doing indies. Tell us about your school. Yeah,
Speaker 1: created Pro Wrestlings in Hicksville, New York. We've been open
Speaker 1: a while now. We trained MJF from Scratch there, we
Speaker 1: trained Max Caster and Scratcher, Chris Statlander, Bear Bronson, uh
Speaker 1: Mark Sterling. I mean, we've had like pretty much a
Speaker 1: gauntlet of a great talent come through, and honestly, it's
Speaker 1: not like it's just not your typical wrestling school. Man.
Speaker 1: If there's someone in there I don't think can cut
Speaker 1: it or has a lame attitude, we go, you know,
Speaker 1: like I'm not there. It's not a cash grab. I
Speaker 1: don't need your money or whatever. It's just it's truly
Speaker 1: just for hard working, passionate people that love pro wrestling,
Speaker 1: and that's what we've protected it in that way, my part,
Speaker 1: Pat Buck and I and it's been just incredible. So
Speaker 1: that's rock and and rolling. So if you're taking yourself
Speaker 1: seriously and you want to be a pro wrestler, we're

Speaker 1: rests things. I've never I've never brought my own stuff
Speaker 1: when somebody else is paying me to sit there, and
Speaker 1: I've just never I've never even thought about that. I'd
Speaker 1: entertain it. But you know, it would be something where
Speaker 1: if you and I had said, you know, i'll take
Speaker 1: care of it, I take care of it. But I
Speaker 1: get what you're saying. I yeah, like it's yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a deal. I would rather save my stuff for an
Speaker 1: event that I know I need merch for, right, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, instead of having to always buy
Speaker 1: new merch. I know they're going to have plenty of
Speaker 1: merch for me, So why bring my own stuff? You're
Speaker 1: not gonna get You're not gonna brutus beefcake me and
Speaker 1: go out of the parking lot sign stuff for somebody
Speaker 1: else and give me a couple of bucks and say,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, this is all he gave me. No,
Speaker 1: I would never want come on, I would never do.
Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite stories. Ever. That's horrible. No
Speaker 1: comes back and he goes, hey, guys, stop me. Asked
Speaker 1: me to sign a bunch of stuff in the you know,
Speaker 1: in a parking lot. So I went out and uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: here's your half. It's like sixty bucks. Like okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure that's all he gots. I don't know. Good bye,
Speaker 1: Brude eye weird. But yeah, anyway, I never I never
Speaker 1: would think to bring my own merch. You know, I've
Speaker 1: never done that unless you would. Yeah, I get I
Speaker 1: get it, I get it. I completely understand. So I
Speaker 1: don't know. I guess these these younger kids are trying
Speaker 1: to teach me. I mean, I mean I've seen it
Speaker 1: other guys who have specific stuff they do want to move.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a matter of telling it advance.
Speaker 1: Just don't surprise them at the venue. But I'm not
Speaker 1: it's going to be off the There's gonna be plenty
Speaker 1: of stuff to buy at Russell Cade, So I think
Speaker 1: I'm good. He could sell the eight x ten and
Speaker 1: then send them over to buy get your autographs. I
Speaker 1: think we're going to be sitting right next to each other,
Speaker 1: so I mean, oh, that's right. Yeah, it's the same group.
Speaker 1: My bad, we're in the same Yeah, there's like eight
Speaker 1: or nine of us going. That's a big group. That's
Speaker 1: the cool thing about wrestle Kate too. When the get
Speaker 1: together like that and they have a group of guys,
Speaker 1: it's not just one person sitting at the table, and
Speaker 1: it's this whole conglomeration of talent. It's very cool. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like we're always going to have a line
Speaker 1: for somebody. Somebody's gonna want to see one of the
Speaker 1: nine of us constantly. There's never going to be all
Speaker 1: that's good. That's a lot nine, that's pretty. It's a
Speaker 1: deep crew. We're gonna need a bunch of tables, I'm
Speaker 1: telling you. And that's another thing, like there might not
Speaker 1: be room for all this extra stuff that you want
Speaker 1: to bring because there's a lot of us that are
Speaker 1: going to be there. Yeah, I'm curious to see COVID wise,
Speaker 1: you know how they they they kind of space out
Speaker 1: the building because that room can get very tight. And
Speaker 1: I know they've they've gotten into a bigger room, but
Speaker 1: it can get tight in there with all the people.
Speaker 1: So I wonder how COVID restrictions in North Carolina will
Speaker 1: change the setup. I don't know, but we recently, you know,
Speaker 1: I've been booked for Rhode Island Comic Con and they
Speaker 1: just send out a very long informative letter saying uh
Speaker 1: and it contradicts itself. First it said everybody must wear
Speaker 1: masks who entered the building, but then it says it's
Speaker 1: your choice if you want to do a mask for
Speaker 1: your photo op. I didn't really understand what they It
Speaker 1: was mandatory a minute ago, and then when you take
Speaker 1: your photo you're allowed to take your mask off. So
Speaker 1: that really didn't make sense to me. And I'm assuming
Speaker 1: since it's two months away, it'll change again. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna you know, I have my mask in
Speaker 1: my bag if I need one grade If I don't, great,
Speaker 1: I don't know. But you know, that's three days in
Speaker 1: this building and that's a big one as well. It's
Speaker 1: going to be packed huge, So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: I mean, I followed the rules whatever they tell me,
Speaker 1: I do, so I don't I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: going to affect people coming to see us or what.
Speaker 1: For a queen of extreme you are a queen of
Speaker 1: rule following. I do follow the rules. I'm not a
Speaker 1: rule breaker usually, you know, I just need to I
Speaker 1: need to know ahead of time what I have to
Speaker 1: do and I'll do it. Yeah. Very cool. But yeah,
Speaker 1: So anyway, but getting back to earlier, we had to
Speaker 1: put Brian on because I told him twelve and it
Speaker 1: was twelve twenty three and he's texting me, are we ready?
Speaker 1: Are we rady? I'm like, oh, I did a podcast
Speaker 1: with a lovely gentleman from the UK. His name was James,
Speaker 1: and you know, we have issues every week with my
Speaker 1: computer and my sound system and my microphone. And as
Speaker 1: soon as I got on, he was like, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I really can't hear you that well, and I'm trying
Speaker 1: to adjust things. And then it got to the point
Speaker 1: where he couldn't hear me at all, and I'm just
Speaker 1: picking different systems and nothing was working. And then I
Speaker 1: tell him, can we go to my phone? And he
Speaker 1: says yes, And I go on the phone and there's
Speaker 1: too much background noise even though yeah, like he could
Speaker 1: hear himself over you know. Then I get off of
Speaker 1: there and he says, oh, you should have just put
Speaker 1: the headphones in the phone. I said, oh, I didn't
Speaker 1: even think of that. I ran upstairs, I got my iPad.
Speaker 1: So yeah, now we're on the iPad for this. But
Speaker 1: I have no idea what's wrong with the computer in
Speaker 1: the audio. I couldn't tell you. It's a mystery because
Speaker 1: you know, we recorded in stream yard for X amount
Speaker 1: of time, but then that was experiencing the microphone problem.
Speaker 1: So we moved to zoom. You know what, Chad's got
Speaker 1: a master plan. He will go ahead and he'll he'll
Speaker 1: try to figure something out for you. Please do before
Speaker 1: next week, because well it might not be next week,
Speaker 1: it might be a few weeks. You got something. I
Speaker 1: think he's got something up his sleep for you. I
Speaker 1: don't know it's it's the microphone's not old. I bought
Speaker 1: a new cord. I just don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: I don't know, We'll say. And I think Brian's mocking
Speaker 1: me because he sent me this gift, that little dickhead,
Speaker 1: and she's got brave, says and I have braces now
Speaker 1: he's making fun of me. Ha ha, yeah, damn it.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to get these things off. Well, it
Speaker 1: has been quite the quite the week, so to speak.
Speaker 1: We're recording a different day, but just man, what a
Speaker 1: week it's been. How have you been doing? We really
Speaker 1: chatted much, but what's yeah, you know, just just taking
Speaker 1: everything day by day as always. Kids started at school,
Speaker 1: so we've been busy with the homeschooling and getting them
Speaker 1: on a schedule, and I had to take my mom
Speaker 1: to the doctor, and uh, you know, just living life,
Speaker 1: just being thankful for each day that I have, even
Speaker 1: though some days I want to rip my hair out
Speaker 1: of my head. But for the most part, it's okay.
Speaker 1: I'm okay. I had so many people have been worried
Speaker 1: about me. I'm okay. I'm you know, you need to
Speaker 1: allow people to grieve. Yes, and I did, and I
Speaker 1: still hurt, but I'm at the point where I'm not
Speaker 1: sitting here crying every day. You know, I think I'm
Speaker 1: past that. I think of her, I get teary eyed,
Speaker 1: but I know in my heart that she's at peace now,
Speaker 1: and that's what makes me happy, because that's all she wanted.
Speaker 1: So I'm okay, and I'm just trying to think of
Speaker 1: happy things and the kids. The kids have gotten me
Speaker 1: through these last couple of weeks, because I mean, if
Speaker 1: your kid can't make you smile, then there's something wrong
Speaker 1: with your kid, and there's something wrong with the way
Speaker 1: you're raising your kids. Because my kids can make me
Speaker 1: smile every single time I look at them. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: that's true. And you know, and it's a sign that
Speaker 1: you're such a history you guys have. I mean, nobody
Speaker 1: expects you to just move on the next day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's going to be an everlasting thing. And you know,
Speaker 1: you shared so much over those two weeks. You know,
Speaker 1: it's even tough to go back and do it again
Speaker 1: last week and have you relive it all over again.
Speaker 1: It was. It was very emotional to be sitting here
Speaker 1: watching you doing it, and I just you know, you
Speaker 1: shared so much of us and we're very appreciative of it.
Speaker 1: So thank you for letting this in. Yeah, it needed
Speaker 1: to be done, you know, it needed to be done,
Speaker 1: and I just, I don't know, I just had to,
Speaker 1: you know, grieve the way that I felt was right.
Speaker 1: And I still think of her at night before I
Speaker 1: go to sleep. But I and I find it's weird.
Speaker 1: I find and I found myself doing this with my
Speaker 1: sister as well, when she passed away. Something will pop
Speaker 1: in my head and like this week, I go, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I got a text Shannon. I got to
Speaker 1: call Shannon. And then I'm like, no, I don't have
Speaker 1: to call Shannon, Like you know what I mean. It's
Speaker 1: an impulse to want to talk to her and tell
Speaker 1: her something, and then I realized she's not here. I
Speaker 1: can't do it, so and I know that'll stop eventually too,
Speaker 1: But my mind, it's just it's weird how your mind thinks.
Speaker 1: Sometimes that's Honestly, the hardest part is to yourself, you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: the deal. Yeah, but you know, yeah, we we started
Speaker 1: up our fall softball season over the weekend. Now, we
Speaker 1: did not win any games last year. We were a
Speaker 1: punching bag for the league. I mean, they must have
Speaker 1: gotten together and they I don't think the league is
Speaker 1: a big fan of the old Chadster. Chadster tends to
Speaker 1: do things a little differently than everybody else. But they
Speaker 1: they came together. We tied the first game, but what
Speaker 1: a victory. Were down ten to one going into the
Speaker 1: last inning and ended up tying eleven eleven. Wow with
Speaker 1: our yeah, with our last at bat, literally a bases
Speaker 1: loaded walk to tie the game. I gave out a
Speaker 1: game ball to a girl who was hysterical crying before
Speaker 1: the game started. She was so nervous. She had two hits,
Speaker 1: drove in four runs, and made a game saving play
Speaker 1: at third base. Oh she's it was great. Circle crying
Speaker 1: for the game start. Yeah, it was, that's fun. But
Speaker 1: then we've been you know, a second game already that
Speaker 1: was going until eight o'clock last night. It was tough
Speaker 1: for these kids. Oh yeah, girls could barely hit the
Speaker 1: plate with the pitch because they were so tired from
Speaker 1: the right. That's cool all day, and then you're going
Speaker 1: to play a game for three hours. It was. It
Speaker 1: was brutal. It's too much. I agree. I did it
Speaker 1: when when the kids had cheerleading and they were this
Speaker 1: was when they were in second grade, and we would
Speaker 1: have practice and then we would be there until, you know,
Speaker 1: the games were over, like nine thirty, and then they
Speaker 1: had school the next day. Yeah, it's ridiculous. So you
Speaker 1: gotta go. You gotta get there a half hour early,
Speaker 1: so you get there at five. The game starts at
Speaker 1: five thirty, so you gotta leave your house at four
Speaker 1: thirty to get to the game of five for the
Speaker 1: five hours start. And then when we walked off the
Speaker 1: field and loaded up the car, it was seven fifty
Speaker 1: when the game was and it's like, holy crap. After
Speaker 1: a long day of school, it's pretty it's a pretty
Speaker 1: long day. And my little one kindergarten her first after
Speaker 1: school activity today and that it's just crazy that that
Speaker 1: popped up out of nowhere. She's already Yeah, what is
Speaker 1: she doing doing robotics? Oh so they're building a robot
Speaker 1: that walks backwards. Okay, better than what you'd been doing here.
Speaker 1: I been like, yeah, jelly, I okay, you're good. Yeah
Speaker 1: right anything, well that's fun, good for them, sounds good. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's about it. Again, we're recording a different day.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a whole different outlook when we're recording
Speaker 1: on a Friday and there's been more happening, extra days
Speaker 1: and things. Oh how about this one Norm MacDonald passing away?
Speaker 1: I know, I felt too bad. Yeah that was crazy yesterday,
Speaker 1: like it. That's an l He did the monolog where
Speaker 1: he came back a year and a half later and
Speaker 1: he explains how he got fired because he wasn't funny
Speaker 1: but now he's funny enough funny as the host. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Watching out yesterday, he was hilarious. He was hilarious. Bert
Speaker 1: Reynolds was like, top notch. You and Norm McDonald have
Speaker 1: one thing in common, we do. He loved to joke
Speaker 1: about Frank Stallone, Frank the Left. I don't joke about Frank.
Speaker 1: He would always talk about Frank Stallone. Oh yeah, Frank
Speaker 1: likes to put himself over, That's all I say. But
Speaker 1: uh yeah, Norm McDonald, who knew nine years bount with cancer, right,
Speaker 1: what kind of cancer did he have. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's been disclosed yet, but just apparently no family,
Speaker 1: no friends, only very close constituents new that he had. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it was quite the shocker to everyone. But I
Speaker 1: don't know what he had. But I mean, he was
Speaker 1: always a smoker, you know, he was always smoking on
Speaker 1: the side of you know, gigs and whatever. He was
Speaker 1: always that was not a private private thing. He publicly smoked.
Speaker 1: So I mean, I don't know if that was the
Speaker 1: cancer or not, but I mean, just when you lose
Speaker 1: somebody of that stature in the pop culture world, you know,
Speaker 1: a comedian of that ilk who didn't subscribe to one
Speaker 1: specific ideology. You know, it wasn't beating you over the
Speaker 1: head with he's got liberal you know thoughts or he's
Speaker 1: way conservative. He was so let me rip on everybody,
Speaker 1: let me riff on stupid crap, let me just do abstract,
Speaker 1: funny things. And it's like he was so introspective in
Speaker 1: a way. But it's just it, I can't believe that
Speaker 1: he's gone. It's like the craziest shit that that came
Speaker 1: out of nowhere. Yeah, side very sad, nothing uh nothing else. Uh.
Speaker 1: We took our pool down, and it pissed me off
Speaker 1: because we've had three days of nothing but beautiful sunshine
Speaker 1: that we could have swam, beautiful weather. Beautiful weather. Last
Speaker 1: week was the shit. It was like seventy one in
Speaker 1: cloudy and we were like, all right, well we'll drain it,
Speaker 1: we'll take it down. Whatever. And the last three days
Speaker 1: I've taken my children for walks, you know, around the
Speaker 1: neighborhood to get some gym time in and just you know,
Speaker 1: do something healthy and the kids, I mean the sweat.
Speaker 1: I can see my son because my son gets a
Speaker 1: buzz cut, and I could see a scout when we walk.
Speaker 1: It just dripping sweat. Just why are we not in
Speaker 1: the freaking pool. Well, that's right, we need it prematurely
Speaker 1: again because we thought it was the summer was over,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And uh yeah, it's uh,
Speaker 1: Mother Nature, totally throw your eagles. They're back football. My
Speaker 1: Eagles could ask the other day and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a good thing. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: get too hype about it because we've done this before
Speaker 1: and we've totally you know, face planet and then the
Speaker 1: season was over before it began. But we it's a
Speaker 1: good start. Poop pooed the bed is what we like
Speaker 1: to Oh okay, now will you and Scottie having any
Speaker 1: kind of Dallas already? He started tweeted me already. I
Speaker 1: was like, bro, that's game one dude, so uh, you
Speaker 1: know it's on every year. We were of each other
Speaker 1: a little bit back and forth, but we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: I can't stand the Cowboys, man, and I'm not the
Speaker 1: only one. I just can't stand them. How about a
Speaker 1: friendly wager at the end of the season, whoever has
Speaker 1: the better record has to record themselves to in the
Speaker 1: American males. Oh, I'll do that anyway. The clap on
Speaker 1: that's fun. That's a fun dance to do. I like it. Oh,
Speaker 1: speaking of dances, I showed my daughter the safety Dance
Speaker 1: video from nineteen eighty four. Whatever you we show. We
Speaker 1: were laughing so hard. She's like, Mom, what kind of
Speaker 1: dances that? I said, it's the safety Dance. It's an
Speaker 1: s and and I showed her where the guy's walking
Speaker 1: through the field. So random. But we were talking about
Speaker 1: like crazy dances that people used to do in the eighties,
Speaker 1: like that wouldn't get over today. Basically, and she's like,
Speaker 1: remember the pac Man and it was pac nan fever.
Speaker 1: I was like, I got one worse than that. And
Speaker 1: I showed her the safety dance and she thought it
Speaker 1: was the most hysterical dance in the world. So when
Speaker 1: we were walking, she busted out with the s in
Speaker 1: the middle of the streets. So it's so dated when
Speaker 1: you look at it, but it was, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's so bad. Oh yeah, it was great at the time,
Speaker 1: it was. It was just so bad. Like an Egyptian too.
Speaker 1: Oh I did them all well. I was trying to
Speaker 1: explain to her dancing on air. Remember dancing on air? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do you watch that as it Yeah, and like I
Speaker 1: remember it, well, you were younger. So for me, I
Speaker 1: was like thirteen fourteen. I would get home from school
Speaker 1: and I would want Dancing on air was like everything,
Speaker 1: you know. But they would play these songs and the
Speaker 1: kids would do the dances from the videos and you
Speaker 1: see people doing this. That is the worst dance move
Speaker 1: in the history of the world. I think it's worse
Speaker 1: than the Dad. It's just bad, you know, like the
Speaker 1: day No, no, the dove is the floss, They're all
Speaker 1: they're all cringe. Now, my daughter tells me nobody does
Speaker 1: them anymore, so we have to come up with something
Speaker 1: new so they don't do the combination dab floss that
Speaker 1: we've called the bloss in this house. Oh, I don't
Speaker 1: know the way he does this whole thing, which should
Speaker 1: be called the Boss. No, I don't know about Virginia,
Speaker 1: but North that's a no. No. Oh god. So but
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I've been showing I was trying to Culture eighty.
Speaker 1: They know all the songs, but they haven't seen the videos.
Speaker 1: So once in a while show them an old video
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh my god, it's so lame. You
Speaker 1: have it back then it was gold. Hey i'll tell
Speaker 1: you what now. I know we're not a fan of
Speaker 1: Dark Side of the Ring, but there's the Dark Side
Speaker 1: of the Nineties on Vice and it's all nineties pop culture.
Speaker 1: It's pretty freaking awesome. I have to say. I watched
Speaker 1: the first episode or what maybe it's the second episode
Speaker 1: was the first one that I watched, and it was
Speaker 1: all about the Viper room in la Oh yeah, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, so cool, just like the background on it
Speaker 1: and Johnny Depp and what like that. Oh so cool.
Speaker 1: I like the you know, it's not always about the wrestling.
Speaker 1: Somebody tweeted them and said, you should do an episode
Speaker 1: on me. I was like me, what do you find
Speaker 1: the dark about me? Yeah? I said, it's better to
Speaker 1: pick somebody else, you know. It's I find it very
Speaker 1: strange that they haven't done and I know they've done
Speaker 1: ECW related people, but just an ECW specific episode. And
Speaker 1: what I think is is they're saving that for their
Speaker 1: like Coup de Gras. When they need to have like
Speaker 1: a full series, like a five part series on one topic,
Speaker 1: they'll use ECW. But I find it strange that it
Speaker 1: hasn't been that way yet because obviously all the stories
Speaker 1: and everything that we've heard, you know, I'm sure they
Speaker 1: can spice it up to make it even more salacious.
Speaker 1: But this was very good. Now, look, it did deal
Speaker 1: with the death of River Phoenix in a very major way,
Speaker 1: but just the story behind the Viper Room was so
Speaker 1: awesome just to see it was like, you know how
Speaker 1: Studio fifty four in the late seventies was this hangout
Speaker 1: for celebrities and it was this like safe space. The
Speaker 1: Viper Room acted the same way, but it was like
Speaker 1: it was like the guy from Counting Pros. I forget Adam.
Speaker 1: Something from Counting Pros was like on the Billboard charts
Speaker 1: with Counting Pros on the cover of Rolling Stone and
Speaker 1: the bartender at the Viper Room like and it was
Speaker 1: like nothing, he was just it said, he said it
Speaker 1: saved his life, like he was going down this dark
Speaker 1: path and the Viper Room saved him. Just crazy, crazy stuff.
Speaker 1: So I highly recommend Dark Side of the Nineties on Vice. Okay,
Speaker 1: something uh, something I might be able to watch. Have
Speaker 1: you started heels yet? I have not, but I actually
Speaker 1: had my work It guy recommended to me too this week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: got to start. It's pretty good. It's pretty I watched
Speaker 1: for the most part. Yeah, I watched episode I'm I'm
Speaker 1: up to date. So this week was I think the
Speaker 1: fifth episode. It's it's pretty good. I don't want to
Speaker 1: give anything away from those that haven't watched it, but
Speaker 1: if you like wrestling and you like Southern wrestling, this
Speaker 1: is something you'd be interested in. So use a lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of lingo. Oh yeah, and then they
Speaker 1: explained the lingo, which to me, i'lmost like, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean like serious necessary, like they're talking to if they're
Speaker 1: talking to like a family friend who's not around the business,
Speaker 1: and they'll go, oh, that's Kate Fabe. What does Kate
Speaker 1: Fave mean? Well, Kate Fave mean, and I'm like, uh,
Speaker 1: glad I could do about It goes back to what
Speaker 1: Brian said earlier, you know about the the you know,
Speaker 1: the wrestling figure fan closet. It's like, this is stuff
Speaker 1: that I always knew of on one side of the
Speaker 1: of the landscape of life and never thinking it would
Speaker 1: translate over to the other side. So I would never
Speaker 1: expect somebody who's not a wrestling fan to know about
Speaker 1: kfabe and lingo and stuff like that that we've learned
Speaker 1: from all the things that are out there, just you know,
Speaker 1: process it. Same thing with the wrestling figures. I've been
Speaker 1: doing this since the nineties. Never realized there was this
Speaker 1: many people out there that would jump on based off
Speaker 1: of a fan base. So it's just it's it's cool
Speaker 1: to see how things have done evolved. There are so
Speaker 1: many different categories of things that people are into that
Speaker 1: they congregate for and get together and praise, and like
Speaker 1: the dungeons and dragons, you know, the people who play back.
Speaker 1: They have their own little language that if I sat in.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know what the hell they're talking about. No, now,
Speaker 1: don't say that, because everybody's into something different. You're saying
Speaker 1: you think you're the coolest person out there. I think
Speaker 1: it's fun that people have stuff that they can do.
Speaker 1: You know, if you like it, you like it. I
Speaker 1: don't judge anybody for what they like. You know, people
Speaker 1: are into different things. User you're a square, You're a dick,
Speaker 1: is what you are. But I say, be your own person.
Speaker 1: If you like it, go for it. Agree, that's what
Speaker 1: I said. I agree, it's just cool. I never would
Speaker 1: have thought it. Oh it's no, it's cool. I agree
Speaker 1: with it. It It look, if I was in my mind,
Speaker 1: i'd probably be a part of their patreon if I
Speaker 1: if I was to think about it, because I know
Speaker 1: everything that those guys are talking about. It's it's probably
Speaker 1: a really cool group. But the response they get is unbelievable.
Speaker 1: But it's it's it's amazing. It's not just wrestling figures
Speaker 1: and dungeons and dragons, it's everything. That's what I said.
Speaker 1: There there is a niche for so many different things
Speaker 1: out there that I've never probably even heard of, And
Speaker 1: everybody has their own universal language, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It's like the wrestlers have their carni k fave shit
Speaker 1: that they listen to and they know then they speak.
Speaker 1: Maybe the dungeons and dragons guys have their own words
Speaker 1: verbiage that they use that only they understand. Everybody's got something.
Speaker 1: That's what I was trying to say, Like, it's not
Speaker 1: just wrestling, it's universal. There's so many different things out there,
Speaker 1: and I, you know, being in their world, in the
Speaker 1: Action figure world, I just was like, I didn't know
Speaker 1: half the things that were going on. But I adjust it,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I adjusted and I think
Speaker 1: I fit right in, and I just I did my best,
Speaker 1: and I got a micro brawler, so you're and I
Speaker 1: got a micro bowler and I didn't even know what
Speaker 1: it was and now I have one. Oh man, all right,
Speaker 1: well let's let's get into what we're going to do
Speaker 1: this week on Patreo. Yeah, I have no clue what's
Speaker 1: going on. Okay, So we're going to head back to
Speaker 1: our favorite destination on the internet. We're heading back to
Speaker 1: BuzzFeed to check out a truer false the mind blowing
Speaker 1: food fact addition, So we're going to go through questions
Speaker 1: that are going to be true or false as it
Speaker 1: relates to different foods. You like food, right, Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: gonna blow your mind. I think. No, there's something that's
Speaker 1: gonna blow your mind. Hey hey hey hey wow. But
Speaker 1: first of all, we go with the shoot names. Now
Speaker 1: we we we go with Oh, I'm sorry, I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to take outside the box because I will ask
Speaker 1: you some funny questions now coming off of our funny
Speaker 1: bad acting video that we watched last week. Whoever the
Speaker 1: uploader is has some of the best videos I've ever seen. Uh,
Speaker 1: so we are going to be checking out. Uh hang on,
Speaker 1: let me see which one I pulled here, give me
Speaker 1: one second, because I closed the window, do do I
Speaker 1: send it to the Queen of Extreme it is and
Speaker 1: I quote uh the try not to cringe compilation. So
Speaker 1: it's gonna be mostly news clips and some awkward moments
Speaker 1: that we get to see captured on video. And uh
Speaker 1: for our match, this is one that I mentioned last week,
Speaker 1: I believe. Uh, but we are going to check out
Speaker 1: from IWA mid South Ian Rotten's promotion on me Eaton
Speaker 1: and Mark Wolf accompanied by the Queen of Extreme Francine
Speaker 1: versus Yes, mean and hard. I don't remember anything about this.
Speaker 1: Oh I think I think this is the one where
Speaker 1: I got the thumbtack in my in my thumb. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be an interesting one. We're probably not
Speaker 1: gonna be able to watch this whole thing because it
Speaker 1: goes on past the match. It's gonna have to be
Speaker 1: a definitely two part. But it's just a weird one
Speaker 1: because for like the last like thirty minutes of the video,
Speaker 1: it's a riot with Tracy smothers, but like it just
Speaker 1: keeps going on and on and the guys are talking
Speaker 1: over it, and it's like it stops and it's like
Speaker 1: moving around like it's not really a right. I don't know,
Speaker 1: So we'll talk about it because I don't really know
Speaker 1: what to think. Hmm okay, but I just my question
Speaker 1: is gonna be out the ring. I don't remember. Shit,
Speaker 1: it's gonna trigger when you see this ring. It is
Speaker 1: disgusting so perfect, okay, yes, yes, So if you ever
Speaker 1: have an itch in a weird spot, it's probably because
Speaker 1: of that. That's from that night, Okay, perfect, that's where
