I can't get like the right light. 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.760 There's like a thing going through my head. I'm freaking 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.320 flying from my conversation. Can we get somebody to help 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:56.000 him today? Would this be Would this be better if 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.400 I just did this? No? I don't like that. Not 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.919 for me. I need to see. But look, I look 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:03.799 so cool there I was. That's a that's a cool 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:06.880 older picture. Yes, that should have been your eight x 0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:11.760 ten an older picture because I look younger there. No, 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:16.120 I that was taken in the Ring of Primal Conflict 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:20.240 Wrestling when I was their guest hosts WOW, alongside my 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.560 two man Power Trip cohort. There we were the guest 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.720 hosts for the evening, kind of like how Raw did 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:29.080 the guest GM. All we did was announce the opening 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:31.520 contest and like the special guests for the next show. 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.520 So were you nervous doing something like that? No, not 0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:38.520 at all, not at all. No, see, I would be nervous. No, 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:42.320 it was great, But I wasn't nervous. But I stepped on. 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:45.320 So John and I were supposed to do a back 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:47.920 and forth, and I'm the one who started it. I 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:50.080 did my whole you know this is I did that 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:53.840 whole thing right. And uh, we were announcing that Ricky 0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:57.040 Steamboat was going to be on the next show. It 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.760 was like the special guest referee, and I was supposed 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.080 to say up to something and then handed to him 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:04.400 so he could say Ricky Steamboat. And I was in 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:08.040 the moment, so I'm just like, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:13.520 will be joining us next month. No, was there heat. No, 0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:15.520 we had a laugh about it. It was actually very 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.279 funny because I was I was feeling it. I was 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:20.360 in the moment. Did you do it like our friend 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.440 Howard Finkel would do it? You know, I actually did 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.000 not know. I channeled my inner chat on Chad took 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.320 them like Chad took them out. Say, now, me being 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:33.719 a you know, a well rounded performer that I have 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:37.080 been as in the business now thirty years, I would 0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:41.080 have been nervous, and you're not. You're just not nervous, 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:44.159 which is uh. It was weird because you know, I'm 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:47.000 trying to think. I definitely hadn't been like in a 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:49.760 role on a show before. And I mean I've been 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:52.440 to so many of them. I've been, you know, in 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:55.680 the heat. You know where I was the most nervous 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:58.680 working for that Indy was when they got TV and 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.920 they brought me on as a producer to do their 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.880 promost for their TV. That's where I was nervous because 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:07.440 I didn't know who the hell any of these guys were. 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:09.839 I didn't know any of the storylines going on, and 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:11.560 all they did was hand me a paper and say, 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:13.120 this is what I want this guy to say in 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.400 this It's terrible. It's really funny that you mentioned that 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:18.560 because I was thinking the other day, like on Twitter 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.520 and on social media and stuff, so many people always 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:24.080 say to me, are we going to see you on 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.600 AW or are we going to see you in Impact? 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.000 Are we going to see you on WWA? And I'm 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:32.600 thinking to myself, like, I don't watch I don't even 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:36.560 know who's on what program who. Like I know what 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.720 my friends are doing obviously because they're my friends and 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.440 I keep up with things on Twitter and stuff, But 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.040 like if I were, and I'm not saying I'm going back. 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.960 I mean, look, guys, I'm like fifty, Like, let's just 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:53.240 excuse me. I have the logo still fifty and fifty 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:57.160 and fabulous. But like, if I were to like go 0:05:57.240 --> 0:06:00.720 back in any capacity, I would really have to do 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.160 my homework. Like I would have to take a week 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:09.080 and just watch like probably twenty episodes back just to 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:11.880 see what the storylines are, who the people are, who's 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:16.440 aligned with who? I don't know anything like anything. It's tough, yes, 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:20.400 it's very tough. And it changes so quickly. Like we've 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:24.520 talked about this before, These angles are so quick these days. 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.520 Nothing stays for more than like three four weeks. Like 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:30.359 one day they're best friends and the next day their enemies. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:33.320 I'm like, how do you even keep up with this stuff? 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.160 So I don't know, but you're not alone with that. 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:39.960 So a buddy of mine was doing some potential consulting 0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:43.880 work for AW and he was told, you know, be 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.320 up on the product as much as you can. And 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.960 he was like, Hey, what do you know about AW? 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:54.039 And I was like, well, not much because the stories 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:58.280 don't really continue. They feature like Keith Lee was this 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:00.880 huge signing from two weeks ago or three weeks ago. 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:04.200 He hasn't been on TV since he debuted. So they 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:06.440 leave stuff hanging and they don't come back. So it's 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.440 hard to be in that position to follow. It's like 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.360 you can't you can't follow it. Like in my mind, 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:14.840 if you're not gonna use someone right away, at least 0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:18.480 do some vignettes and keep them on your TV so 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.280 that people know he's coming, you know what i mean, 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:24.040 Like just to keep them intrigued with the character. Do 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:29.240 something people in like fans forget some fans forget it, 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:31.400 or they're like, oh, well, he was supposed to get 0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:33.280 a push, he must suck. He's not. And I'm not 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:37.240 talking about Keith Lee just enjoying. You know, they're gonna 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:40.200 push this guy and then he's gone and oh well 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:42.120 maybe he's not as big as we thought he was 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.960 gonna be or something like that. I mean, you you 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:46.880 have to keep momentum up. And it's just like I 0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:49.840 see all this news and then it did like they 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:53.160 drop the ball and I'm like, what happened to so 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.080 and so? You know what I mean, Like it's so 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:59.040 weird the way things work. That's what I'm hoping, Like 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:03.280 with this whole road situation, like if he you know, 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:07.480 all fingers are pointing at WWE right now, I'm just 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:11.280 hoping that they they just push him to his potential 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.840 and it's not another you know, we get him for 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.680 three months and then he's gone from TV, because that 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.800 could happen, you know, and I and in his case, 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.600 he worked so very hard to just revamp himself and 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:26.760 show us exactly what he's capable of. And and if 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:31.560 he you know, WWE is known for burying people. Let's 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:34.959 hope it's not the case. I think Cody's got them 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.320 kind of by the balls, though, I hope so, I 0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:40.000 hope he does well. I mean he's, like I said, 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.559 I don't know the guy, but he's worked really hard 0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:46.240 from what I've seen, and uh, you know, the last 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:51.400 three years just reinvented himself as this top you know 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:55.160 character in wrestling. And now if he goes there and 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:57.360 they just poo poo on him, that's gonna be a shame. 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:01.720 I poopoo indeed, and that you know, they know the 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:04.520 best way to do it. They'll just you know, bury you, 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.640 or they'll bring up all the old crap that he 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.080 did that was bad and not good. I mean, this guy, 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:11.360 you know, you run down. This is kind of the 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:15.200 similarities to when Shane went back in ninety five, right, 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:17.120 Shane went back as the top guy on the on 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.040 the Indy c in a ECW goes back there, he's 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:23.319 Dean Douglas Cody. The last time they saw him on 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:27.160 TV was Stardust, right, Okay, who was? He had even 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.600 evolved past being like a gold Dust clone. He was 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:34.439 this weird kind of like the Joker like space character, 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:36.800 right like every member of Kiss rolled in the one 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:40.199 but before that, and people forget this crap. His gimmick 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.400 was that he had a mustache, the porn mustache. He 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.199 had the porn stash and like, and that's where you 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:48.920 know in the first storyline that he's in that they're 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:50.760 going to bring it up in a in a promo. 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:53.240 Oh why don't you go back to growing your mustache, Cody? 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:54.920 Or why don't you go back to being star Dust 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:57.640 or something like that. Oh for his case, I hope not. 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:01.760 I mean that's and Cizarro couldn't come to terms on 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:06.640 a contract, which I was just like, wow, And that guy, Oh, 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:10.840 he's amazing. He's so very talented and never got the 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:14.320 push that he frightfully deserved over there. So I would 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:18.439 love to see him, you know, in another organization as 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.160 a world champion, because I think he deserves that run. 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:24.160 There's just so much, so much good talent out there 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.200 and they're not being utilized the way that they're supposed to. 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:31.840 So yeah, pretty interesting right now in the world professional wrestling, 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:35.120 and with Cizarrow. What's funny and fans, don't you know? 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:38.840 I understand there's a there's a distinctive line between smart 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:43.000 fans and the average fan. You look at Cizarrow, Oh, 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:44.920 we should have been world champion. Ahways should have been 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:48.199 the Well guess what, he's been employed for ten years. 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.880 He given a ton of money, so I'm sure he's 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:55.800 fine with not being champions in that contract. As a 0:10:56.080 --> 0:11:02.040 performer myself, you can be performed, you know, performing at 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:05.920 your highest right and still be like at a mid 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:11.120 card level and not be happy with your position, Like 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:14.000 you know, it's good to have money coming in for 0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:18.000 ten years straight. But I'm sure he was frustrated at times, 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:21.840 because let's face it, people are in this business to 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.760 achieve certain things, and if he wanted to be a 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:28.240 champion and they have, you know, they have their thumb 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:31.160 down on him, maybe he wasn't happy. I mean, he 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.280 did try to renegotiate a deal and they couldn't come 0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:37.080 to terms, so he walked. Yeah, he could have settled 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:42.160 for less money, but he didn't, So there's something there. Yeah, 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:45.520 I mean, you're getting older. You know, people have certain 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:48.040 goals that they want to reach in this business, and 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:52.839 it's sometimes it's not always about money, you know, it's 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:56.520 what you can do for yourself and for your character. Right, 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:59.320 But for ten years, you know, he was making a 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:01.840 pretty damn good a lot of money, and now he 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:05.320 can go away from there, dictate his schedule, pick where 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:07.640 he wants to go. And I'm sure you know, yeah, 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:10.160 having that world championship or that top run would have 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:11.559 been great, But you know what, at the end of 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:13.760 the day, now he can just go do that someplace 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.760 else that'll appreciate him, and he can and I get that, 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.040 But that doesn't mean he was happy for those ten years. 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:20.720 Oh yeah, I'm not saying he's happy at all. But 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.240 well you're saying, you know, I'm saying ten years of 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:27.120 employment at a high rate, at a high dollar speaks volumes, 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:31.240 that he's resigned multiple times in that ten years. Yeah, 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:34.360 I'm just saying that it didn't mean that he was happy. 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.640 He probably wanted more and I just feel like he 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:42.720 could gave them a good you know, title run. He 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:46.319 could have been a good chance. Again, there's a lot 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.600 of people that fit that description that never get the opportunity. 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:52.560 But you know, some people are just happy getting a paycheck. 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.000 I could tell you for the first time and speaking 0:12:56.000 --> 0:13:00.240 to somebody directly that worked for WWE, Yeah, I actually 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:05.320 found somebody that enjoyed their time there from top to bottom. 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:07.120 And I was a guy who's going to be on 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:10.280 the next new generation Declassified. He was one of the 0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:17.000 artists in the early nineties designing ring attire, debut concepts 0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:19.960 and posters. And I said, I was like, you know, basically, 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.679 I haven't met anybody who's enjoyed the work there and 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:24.600 go did you like he goes? I loved every minute 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:27.280 of him. Maybe if he was talent, he would have 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.000 felt differently. I mean I didn't like it there for 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.640 the time I was there. It made a dream job. 0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:34.839 I said this in an interview with somebody the other 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:39.199 day that working for WWE was a dream job that 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:44.679 turned into your worst nightmare. You go in with these 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:49.240 high hopes and big eyes, and you know, you just 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:52.280 want to you just want to do well, and you 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:56.480 want them to use you to your potential. You go 0:13:56.559 --> 0:14:00.079 to them, you have your meetings, you offer everything that 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.800 you have. I will work, I will this, You pitch 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.880 ideas and they go uh huh uh huh hun to 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.559 your face, and then you turn around, you walk out 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:11.320 the door, and it's just like it's just like you 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:14.920 never had that meeting to begin with, because they most 0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:17.320 of the time, it's just like who cares? And and 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:19.880 then you say to yourself, why the hell did they 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:23.040 even hire me? Because that's what I've said multiple times. 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.400 I'm like, why why did they even hire me? You know, 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:28.160 it's you know, it's not for everyone, and that's all 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:32.800 I'll say. Appreciate the opportunity, but yeah, it was. It was. 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:35.320 It was a fulfillment of a dream. It was the 0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:37.840 guy who showed up to their offices with his resume, 0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:40.520 knocking on the door to politely deliver one. But you 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.440 know that you know that meme or that that jip 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:45.880 that's on Twitter of the guy with the mouth that 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:48.480 falls open and it's like a skeleton face and he goes, 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:52.720 oh yeah, yeah, that day one I walked in, I'm like, 0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:55.920 all right, I'm here, and then mouth dropped at the 0:14:56.160 --> 0:15:02.040 horrible so well, we're gonna dial all the way. Technically, 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:05.200 if you watch like any cartoon, Australia is underneath us. 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:06.760 It's like you have to go all the way underneath 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:10.200 the globe to get to Australia. But I pitched this 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:15.000 guy indirectly to you on the fiftieth birthday party on YouTube, 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:18.680 he commented, and I put him over big time, saying 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.000 he was this great, funny whatever. So the pressure is 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:25.520 on to deliver. It's the aucy guy, awesy guy. Is 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:29.960 that what you'd like to be called? Yeah, that's yeah. 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:34.800 My name is Dane. But first I just wait one second. Yeah, 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:39.240 I could listen to you talk for hours. There is 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:42.520 something now. People say I have the worst voice in 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:46.880 the world, and to them, I say this, but there 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:53.000 is something about an Australian accent that just makes my 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:55.920 heart flutter. So I might just sit back and just 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:59.760 let you say whatever you want. I just love love 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:01.640 that voice. He gets in trouble when he says what 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:03.800 he wants, so I don't know. I don't I can 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:06.720 say whatever you want on this because we are You 0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:08.720 don't want to, you don't want to let me say 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:12.800 whatever I want. But no, thank you very much. For 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:15.600 having me on. It's it's it. I said to Chad, 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.040 it would make my life and my honor. There man, 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.520 come on the show. Uh and and yeah, look I 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:26.080 I love your accent as well. And every time you're 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:27.960 in the cold open of Get My Go, I love 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:35.720 hearing Get My Gal. Yeah, people, it's very annoying. No 0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:38.480 I disagree. I love it. I love when there's character 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:40.720 in the voice. Chad's kind of got that, you know, 0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:44.720 just that standard American broadcast of voice. You know, I 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:47.680 can't impersonate you, Chad, You're you're so difficult talk to 0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:49.560 me off air. Maybe that might change a little bit. 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.480 We just talked about this last week, how the accent 0:16:52.520 --> 0:16:54.480 can go up and go down with depending who you 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:57.640 talk to. So I'm in front of this thing. It 0:16:57.720 --> 0:16:59.920 sounds different when I'm around Fred seeing that, you know, 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:01.840 when we're outside of this, I'm like, I talk more 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:04.240 like this and like, hey, yeah, you doing now you don't. 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:08.480 I just feel like I don't have a specific accent. 0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:11.920 But I mean in America, depends on where you are 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:16.800 in the country, and everybody just it changes the farther 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:20.720 up ninety five you drive. It's just the Northeast that happens. 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:23.639 It changes if you go to the Midwest, it changes 0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:27.119 if you go to California. It's just really bizarre. But 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:32.040 everybody that I meet from Australia to me, sounds the same. 0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:34.680 Now I only meet people at conventions, so I haven't 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:39.280 met a lot of asses, but television and I just 0:17:39.400 --> 0:17:43.800 find I just find it very very appealing, so very 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.560 very A lot of Americans say that, And it's interesting 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:49.639 because when I listen to a lot of American you know, 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:53.000 podcasts and radio and stuff, and whenever I hear the 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:57.000 Australian accent pop pop, I go ooh, you know, it's 0:17:57.080 --> 0:18:00.399 weird to me. But you're right, that doesn't to me. 0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:03.919 There's no there's no separation across our country. Like I 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:06.080 feel like the accent is pretty much the same all 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.800 across the country. But it is fascinating how much it 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.280 changes across the US. And you know, from the Southern 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:16.480 States and then up to that northeastern area that they 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:20.240 range so much. It's it's very interesting. Yes, and when 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:24.600 and when you travel, uh and you tend to pick 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:27.640 up like if I'm in the South, like after my 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:30.000 four day loop, I'll say, well, I reckon and then 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.320 I go, wait a minute, that I'm from the northeast, 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:35.640 so it's you pick up little things here and there. 0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:38.720 So where I live in Virginia is basically like you 0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:41.920 start to go south, and then that's where the accents 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:45.200 get deeper and deeper, because we would be considered northern Virginia, right, 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:48.159 But we are around so many people that have different 0:18:48.200 --> 0:18:51.560 accents that my wife and I talk in the accent 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.159 like as a goof to one another. But then I 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:57.280 find myself not being able to stop talking like that 0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.679 as the goof in my regular time around here. And 0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:02.359 it's the hardest thing to do. But you know, like, 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:04.560 wait a second, but I sound like a fake Southerner, 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:07.200 But I can't control the fact I'm trying to sound 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:10.400 like a fakes other as a goof, and that's where 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:12.359 it is. But I'm like down here in Virginia, I'm 0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:14.480 the I'm the sore thumb. You're kidding me. Nobody sounds 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:18.240 like me around here. You're not a true Virginia Virginian. 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:22.080 I'm not a true virgin either, But that's actually anesty guy. 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:26.480 So tell the people listening where are you from? What 0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:31.000 show did we pull you from? And how did you 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:34.560 get involved with them because this guy over here loves 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:38.240 you guys. Yeah, now I pointed this way, this guy 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:41.879 over here that Chad has been very coind to me 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.320 and a big supporter. So I mean there's a there's 0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.440 a long running saga that it obviously culminated in Get 0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:50.080 My Go and say that's that's how I've got to 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:53.199 know Chad is it's through Get My Go and the 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:57.600 hours that we've sat there listening to terrible podcasting and 0:19:58.160 --> 0:20:01.280 making fun of it. And look, it's it really is 0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:03.520 a lot of fun. And yeah, people will say it's 0:20:03.520 --> 0:20:06.720 main spirited or whatever, but we have a lot of 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.320 fun doing it. And I've got no problem if anyone 0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:11.720 wants to, you know, shoot back at me, like you know, 0:20:11.920 --> 0:20:14.320 go feel off. I've got no problems with anyone coming 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:16.639 back at me. So yeah, we we just try and 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:18.840 make each other laugh and it's always a good time. 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.240 I want to Get My Go. I am still waiting 0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:26.280 for that. I've had an invitation, several invitations, but never 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:30.040 a follow up, and wondering, can't get it done on 0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:32.679 Friday that's the problem. Well, they said they would. They 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:37.399 said every single person that I now I am friendly 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:40.280 with the Get my Go crew, you know. Uh, and 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.720 every single person said, oh, we will do it on 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:46.359 a Friday for you. And I'm sitting here every Friday, like, 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:49.240 where are these persons in here waiting? I agree, you know, 0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:51.600 I had I gotta do it on Saturday morning. Poor 0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.560 Dean has to do it Saturday night. So technically for 0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:59.640 Dean right now, he's enjoying his nice Friday evening Australia. Well, 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:04.160 I mean technically it's Saturday morning. It's jeez, twenty five 0:21:04.280 --> 0:21:08.800 to one. It's twelve thirty five on Saturday morning. Well, 0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:11.680 oh geez, we should have started earlier for this poor man. 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:13.560 I'm so sorry we kept you out unless you're a 0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:16.320 night out and then I don't know. It's perfectly fine. 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.800 This is the standard. And it started with Get My Go. 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:21.520 This is kind of standard for me. And what I 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:23.480 try to do is I'll grab a couple of hours 0:21:23.480 --> 0:21:27.560 sleep beforehand and then wake up, do the do the session, 0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:30.280 and then go back to bed. So I'm used to this. 0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:32.880 This is this is standard for me. When when Chad 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.320 said eleven eleven am Eastern on a Friday, I was like, oh, perfect, yeah, 0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:39.919 that's exactly That's exactly what he said, because that's when 0:21:39.960 --> 0:21:42.520 we usually do get my goal. But what I will 0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:44.760 mention though with Dean and get my goal and the 0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:47.520 stigma I think we run into. See I look at 0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:50.080 it as a parody. I don't look at anything we're 0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:52.040 doing as being mean, because just like he said, if 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:53.880 you can dish it out, you got to take it. 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:56.400 And anybody who wants to retort and say something back, 0:21:56.440 --> 0:21:58.800 I mean, what can we say right that we haven't 0:21:58.800 --> 0:22:00.879
