Speaker 1: well everyone, I love when we do these live twitch thingies.
Speaker 1: There's some fun live twitch thingy. That's a good way
Speaker 1: to put it. I think that's a good way to
Speaker 1: put it. I do too. This is your deal, and
Speaker 1: I love it. I'm starting to like it a lot.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we can do it as many times
Speaker 1: as you'd like. It's a it's always available and I
Speaker 1: love Twitch and I love Eyes up Here, so it's
Speaker 1: a perfect combination. Yes, you do. And speaking of Eyes
Speaker 1: up Here, my eyes are focused on your ill. You
Speaker 1: didn't know where I was going to go with that one,
Speaker 1: but my eyes are focused on your teeth, eyes literally
Speaker 1: up here. So last we left you, you were preparing
Speaker 1: for this arduous task of putting braces in your mouth.
Speaker 1: How are you feeling and how are you doing well?
Speaker 1: They're in top row. You can see them. You can
Speaker 1: also see right there. I know you'd skip, but I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I have to show it. Cotton. I had to put
Speaker 1: cotton in my mouth because there is a I don't
Speaker 1: know what it's called, but they when they took the
Speaker 1: spacers out, they put these metal things around your teeth
Speaker 1: in the back to keep the space open, I suppose,
Speaker 1: and there's a gimmick at the top that turns with
Speaker 1: a sharp point, and it literally cut my cheek wide open.
Speaker 1: So I have a hole in my cheek and I
Speaker 1: had to put the cotton to block it. Because they
Speaker 1: didn't give me wax or anything. Everybody's like, oh, just
Speaker 1: put wax. I don't have any wax. So we ordered
Speaker 1: from Amazon these things, silicone things I think that you're
Speaker 1: supposed to put over, but they don't come till tomorrow.
Speaker 1: So I have cotton in my mouth. My bracket on
Speaker 1: the front tooth came off, which is a rarity. It's
Speaker 1: not these things are not supposed to move it your teeth.
Speaker 1: I was brushing my teenis and I noticed it was
Speaker 1: to the side, so I called my dentist office and
Speaker 1: they were like, well, we can't see until June twelfth,
Speaker 1: and I, excuse me, July twelfth, and I said perfect.
Speaker 1: So I just moved it over and now I have
Speaker 1: to wait ten days to go see my dentist. And
Speaker 1: the pain is unfreaking believable. Now, what did you think
Speaker 1: going through it when they were putting the braces on?
Speaker 1: Were you listening? Were you like trying to zone out?
Speaker 1: Like where were you at? Headspace? Wise? First of all,
Speaker 1: they couldn't get the metal thing on this side, so
Speaker 1: it's not there because of the two crowns. They had
Speaker 1: such a problem. They try and their number, so it's like,
Speaker 1: let's try sixteen. Oh, that's let's try seventeen to the eighteenth.
Speaker 1: They went up to the twenties, the mid twenties, and
Speaker 1: he's like, I can't do this, and I just looked
Speaker 1: at him. I said, what are you going to do?
Speaker 1: And he says, well, a month before you get your
Speaker 1: bottom braces. We're just gonna have to do something and
Speaker 1: we'll worry about it then. And I was just like, okay,
Speaker 1: you know what am I supposed to say? Like he's
Speaker 1: the dentist, I'm not. I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: How how long did it take? It took about maybe
Speaker 1: an hour the whole procedure. And and let me just
Speaker 1: tell tell you something. I pray to God he doesn't
Speaker 1: have corona because his nose was practically inside my mouth
Speaker 1: the whole time. I mean they had to. I could
Speaker 1: feel the breath, it was all over me. And I'm
Speaker 1: just laying there like, please God, I do there's more
Speaker 1: important things and like to worry about, but let this
Speaker 1: guy not have corona and and let this be over quickly.
Speaker 1: I just felt, you know, I felt trapped not to
Speaker 1: inhale his So, yeah, it was a bit of a
Speaker 1: traumatic experience. Did you watch anything while you were getting
Speaker 1: this done? Like do they give you like a screen
Speaker 1: to like his was like I couldn't watch anything, headphones, earbuds, nothing, No.
Speaker 1: I had to listen. I wanted to know what the
Speaker 1: hell was going on because they obviously things were not
Speaker 1: going the way they were supposed to so, and then
Speaker 1: they hand me this paper and it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: here's what you can eat and what you can't eat.
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I came home. I couldn't eat
Speaker 1: anything the teeth and and you know, it's almost a
Speaker 1: week later. My teeth are so sore. They're just sore.
Speaker 1: I feel. How do little children go through this without
Speaker 1: like crying every day? I don't understand. That's why kids
Speaker 1: get it when they have their mommy around, so they
Speaker 1: could just go cry. Sit there, Well, you your mommy
Speaker 1: actually if you wanted to. I know I did cry
Speaker 1: to my mommy. She was like, how do you feel?
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't feel good. Yeah. So I mean
Speaker 1: I think I have probably two years of this ahead
Speaker 1: of me. And uh yeah, so get ready, eyes up here.
Speaker 1: You're gonna just hear me bitch and moan for like
Speaker 1: two years and it's gonna be glorious. They're weird, like
Speaker 1: I can't you know if my lip for truth, like
Speaker 1: they're white, you can't really. I mean you could see them,
Speaker 1: but it's not like the metal you can tell your mouth.
Speaker 1: You can just you can tell in your mouth you
Speaker 1: have them. But the way the screen sits. I mean,
Speaker 1: I also have really shitty eyes, so I can't see
Speaker 1: that well. But I can't tell looking at you. I
Speaker 1: could see when your mouth is closed. Yeah, yeah, because
Speaker 1: the lip has to go over them. Now, it's just
Speaker 1: it sucks. It's unanimous in the chat, by the way,
Speaker 1: ew and that nasty or reigning supreme either with me.
Speaker 1: It's uh, yeah, it's not. You know, it wouldn't be
Speaker 1: as bad if this thing didn't cause a hole in
Speaker 1: my cheek, okay, because that's like what you know, years
Speaker 1: and years of braces and they can't get a better system,
Speaker 1: Like they can't put like something silicone that's soft for
Speaker 1: your mouth. No, they have to put this friggin metal
Speaker 1: thing with a point that goes right into your cheek.
Speaker 1: Who does this? How about three printed braces? Maybe you
Speaker 1: can barely even see them. They're like a foe. They're
Speaker 1: not even like really there, they're just well there's the
Speaker 1: invisible line. And those things are apparently, like, you know,
Speaker 1: really good, but they're really expensive. I was going to
Speaker 1: pay for them, but they said that as soon as
Speaker 1: they looked at me, they said, you're not accounted it
Speaker 1: for a visital house. Really, yeah, I think because my
Speaker 1: overbite was bad, so I don't know. They just said
Speaker 1: you need traditional braces and I said, can I get
Speaker 1: the clear ones? And they said, well we have the
Speaker 1: white ones and I said okay, and that's then He's like, well,
Speaker 1: it's an extra five hundred dollars. I said, just put
Speaker 1: it all my job to do a few more cameos
Speaker 1: than have to pay for this for real. Wow, let's
Speaker 1: take a moment just to welcome everybody in. I appreciate
Speaker 1: y'all being here. I see some familiar faces, so I'm
Speaker 1: happy to have everybody here on this lovely Friday morning.
Speaker 1: And yeah, we'll be going back and forth from the
Speaker 1: chat to see if you have any questions. But how's
Speaker 1: your week been? Has anything special happened? Oh? Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: absolutely a huge day for me. Yesterday I opened up
Speaker 1: officially my IB Exclusives office, which you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: is it operational as a retail business. No, It's an
Speaker 1: office that I can now leave the home to do
Speaker 1: my outside of my regular work business but have a
Speaker 1: physical address and maybe be a little more appealing to
Speaker 1: some vendors and some outside opportunities. But just a big deal.
Speaker 1: I don't really think it's kind of sunk in yet
Speaker 1: because I don't have anything in the office yet. I
Speaker 1: brought a little end table and a roly cart and
Speaker 1: that's all I have so far. But yeah, kind of surreals.
Speaker 1: Just like literally after we were done recording last Friday,
Speaker 1: I went and looked at it and then signed the
Speaker 1: least yesterday and was in that fest. It really was
Speaker 1: like kind of like an I said to the real
Speaker 1: I was like, does it always go this quickly? And
Speaker 1: she goes yeah, And I was like, oh, I guess
Speaker 1: I'm not special then sorry, well congratulations. I ever read
Speaker 1: a certain do, I would have come in and do

Speaker 1: it's just an office. This is just my office. But
Speaker 1: sooner or later it will be operational. Where it's gonna be.
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a purchasing component to it at some point.
Speaker 1: What I really want is to do signings in the
Speaker 1: in the office and have you know, my my banners
Speaker 1: and my backdrop is as a place for maybe local
Speaker 1: talent or somebody that's close come in, do it and
Speaker 1: off for photo ops. Folks. That's what it's all about.
Speaker 1: But anybody who checks it out, I can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1: I can. I can't show the thing here. If you
Speaker 1: want to keep talking for a second, I'll bring it up.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I was going to say, where where do
Speaker 1: we stand with with conventions? Now? Are we comfortable doing
Speaker 1: these in store signings? Do you think the world is
Speaker 1: is pretty much coming back to normal? I think so, yeah,
Speaker 1: I do. And it seems like all the conventions and
Speaker 1: signings that I've seen so far, even with guys that
Speaker 1: I would say had been around a lot, are doing
Speaker 1: really well because I think people are dying to get
Speaker 1: out and get these pictures taken and get items signed.
Speaker 1: And from what I've seen, it's it's it's really it's
Speaker 1: been kind of overwhelming what the the in person signings
Speaker 1: have been doing. You've been to one so far, right, So, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know. I've been to one the Squared Circle where
Speaker 1: I was told you're supposed to wear a mask, you're
Speaker 1: supposed to social distance, and I was the only one
Speaker 1: that did that. Everybody else did not have a mask on,
Speaker 1: you know, they were taking pictures. I'm reading about the
Speaker 1: Delta variant, the new and it's like a coin flip,
Speaker 1: Like there are certain people saying, oh, it's going to
Speaker 1: be even more deadly, and then the other ones are
Speaker 1: putting up stats and it's like it's getting one percent
Speaker 1: of the population. It's like, who do you listen to?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, it's so it's so difficult.
Speaker 1: I think now I'm comfortable going somewhere and not wearing
Speaker 1: a mask to take the pictures, but I'm not comfortable
Speaker 1: putting my arm around people and being that close, you know,
Speaker 1: like I And that kills me because I'm a people
Speaker 1: person and I love to welcome the fans and hug
Speaker 1: the fans and say hello and be able to take
Speaker 1: the nice picture. But I'm just, you know, because of
Speaker 1: my mom, I am. I am so hesitant to get
Speaker 1: super duper close to strangers anymore. I don't know how
Speaker 1: long that's going to last for me, you know, And
Speaker 1: it sucks because I want to get out there and
Speaker 1: I want to do all this stuff, but I still
Speaker 1: got that little bit of hesitant. How about all right,
Speaker 1: can we negotiate. Can I negotiate with you? How about
Speaker 1: still won't get close? But are we going to take
Speaker 1: down the mask? Well, that's what I just said. I'm okay,
Speaker 1: but officially yeah, yeah, I'm having the mask off because
Speaker 1: people want to see our faces. I understand that one
Speaker 1: hundred percent. I get it, but I don't want people
Speaker 1: on top of me, and I feel like they shouldn't
Speaker 1: want me on top of them. Well there's home. There's
Speaker 1: a whole segment of people that would disagree with that
Speaker 1: second statement that I Well, I'm just going to pop
Speaker 1: this bad boy up here if you don't mind, If
Speaker 1: anybody wants to see the picture it is. That's beautiful.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a really cool custom print that I
Speaker 1: had done up. It's signed by Bolt, Shane and Francine.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite things to do with the perfect yellow,
Speaker 1: perfectly rated yellow. And what I love. I love the
Speaker 1: pictures of everybody signing him. Yes, Shane looks like a cowboy.
Speaker 1: There you are and he looks like a cowboy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's got his his song beyond a cowboy, yellow black
Speaker 1: and yellow horse he rides. No. I think that's a
Speaker 1: beautiful photo. I think it's great and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: if anybody wants to sign up patreon dot com Forward
Speaker 1: slash Transcene podcast, you might just get one sent to you.
Speaker 1: So I'm feeling nice again. I really enjoy you know,
Speaker 1: the patriot stuff and this well, you know, we're gonna
Speaker 1: promote it again. Troy, who's been commenting, he's a part
Speaker 1: of our Patreon. He's always talking about how much he
Speaker 1: loves it. It's a good freaking time and I like
Speaker 1: to reward it. And Christy as well. Christy as well,
Speaker 1: he's in years comment things. Uh yeah really uh really cool.
Speaker 1: So thanks thanks to everybody. But yeah, that's that was
Speaker 1: my high point of the week. And my second high
Speaker 1: point is, uh is being here today? That nice? Can
Speaker 1: I can I just sing to Troy for a second.
Speaker 1: Thank you for the bits, my friend, Thank you for
Speaker 1: the bits. Thank you for the bits, my friend, Thank
Speaker 1: you for the bits. Oh and Christy, I have to
Speaker 1: thank you for the bits, my friend. Thank you for
Speaker 1: a bit sing with me, Thank you for my friend,
Speaker 1: Thank you for Troy and Christy, thank you so much
Speaker 1: for the bits. Much appreciate it. You mind if I
Speaker 1: ask you a question? One clean? Of course not so
Speaker 1: we kind of were thinking about doing this show, you
Speaker 1: know we do. Before we were thinking about going live,
Speaker 1: we had another topic that everybody's been asking you about.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna just be the I'm gonna get the
Speaker 1: elephant in the room out of the out of the way.
Speaker 1: This Jeff Jarrett comment or or comments from his podcast.
Speaker 1: We've kind of debunked it throughout the week, but please,
Speaker 1: if you don't mind, enlighten us as to what you
Speaker 1: heard and now what has kind of come out of
Speaker 1: this situation, just the backstory. It was the My World
Speaker 1: podcast he reviewed the TNA first show. There are possibly
Speaker 1: comments made about you and Shane having heat, thus why
Speaker 1: Shane didn't come into TNA. You can take the rest
Speaker 1: of the way. It was weird because you told me
Speaker 1: about it initially. You brought it up, and it's like
Speaker 1: telephone the game Telephone, you get passed down and then
Speaker 1: once it goes to the last person, it's a completely
Speaker 1: different story the way you told me what you mentioned
Speaker 1: the SME thing, but you also mentioned that I had
Speaker 1: a lot of heat with several different people and one
Speaker 1: of them was Elektra. That was what I was told,
Speaker 1: but that was never mentioned. It was just Shane. So
Speaker 1: I'm told. So I just messaged Conrad and I was
Speaker 1: just like, hey, I didn't I didn't say that we
Speaker 1: were going to discuss it on the podcast, but I said,
Speaker 1: I'd like to know about the heat that I had
Speaker 1: with the whole locker room because I was not aware,
Speaker 1: and can you enlighten me on the situation so I
Speaker 1: know better? And it was basically, it wasn't the whole
Speaker 1: locker room. It wasn't Electra. It was Shane, which we
Speaker 1: you know, we did have a falling out back in
Speaker 1: the day, and I guess they said he wouldn't come
Speaker 1: in because I was working there, but Shane denies that.
Speaker 1: But here it wasn't Jeff. It was Dave Meltzer who
Speaker 1: reported it. So take that as you will, because you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I don't believe anything that
Speaker 1: that man says. So and it really look how it
Speaker 1: could start trouble. Now, I said to you from the start,
Speaker 1: I've heard this second and third hand on my way
Speaker 1: to telling you. But then since then people have tweeted
Speaker 1: about it. There was comments in the one YouTube Budge
Speaker 1: I was watching to try to get some information, but
Speaker 1: that's the way it goes. It turns out it was
Speaker 1: completely different outcome than what we had been told from
Speaker 1: the start. Here's my whole tena journey in a nutshell.
Speaker 1: Bob Rider contacts me. I signed for four events, four shows.
Speaker 1: I do four shows. They tell me, we don't know
Speaker 1: what to do with you anymore. And I accept it
Speaker 1: because I knew initially I was coming in for four shows.
Speaker 1: Now would I have liked to work there longer? Yes?
Speaker 1: I did. Get along with all the girls that were there.
Speaker 1: I loved the locker room, and the guys were great.
Speaker 1: I didn't have a problem. I didn't. There wasn't any
Speaker 1: heat I mean that I know of. No one approached
Speaker 1: me with anything negative. Got along with everyone. I had
Speaker 1: a good time working there. I was kind of hoping
Speaker 1: that this would be like the second ECW locker room,
Speaker 1: you know, the type bond I was trying to form.
Speaker 1: Friendships didn't work out, and I moved on and that
Speaker 1: was that. And why are you laughing at me right now?
Speaker 1: I'm just laughing because in the comments, Mike Derband asked
Speaker 1: a question, and it's I would I would put this
Speaker 1: in the facetious category if I was. But that's why
Speaker 1: I was laughing. What was it like working in ec W.
Speaker 1: Mike Chad hates that question. I loved working in New CW.
Speaker 1: Maybe they'll ask about the WWEE CW next, Maybe that's next. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's why I laughed so funny. But yeah, and that
Speaker 1: was I have nothing to say, you know, negative about
Speaker 1: the TNA experience. I was taken aback because when when
Speaker 1: you had said elector, I was like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: we were friends. I don't get that now, the whole
Speaker 1: Shane thing. And to be honest with you, I don't
Speaker 1: even know what year it was when Shane and I
Speaker 1: kind of I guess it was at his show when
Speaker 1: we you know. But and it's funny because that night
Speaker 1: he tells me, well, we'll talk later, and to this
Speaker 1: day we never have. We never have talked about what
Speaker 1: we were supposed to talk about a million years ago.
Speaker 1: And thank you for the bit, my friend, thank you
Speaker 1: for the bit truly, and Mike Durban, thank you for
Speaker 1: the bit. But seriously, I told him the other day,
Speaker 1: I said, we really should sit down and discuss the
Speaker 1: heat that we I don't think he wants to. So
Speaker 1: we're good. But we're good now. And can I be
Speaker 1: a neutral moderator in between, just to be a fut please,
Speaker 1: this would be a private conversation. But you know, I
Speaker 1: hate dwelling on the past. Why I hear we're very
Speaker 1: good friends now. I would hate for us to get
Speaker 1: it into another stupid fight over something that happened a
Speaker 1: million years ago. Yes, and he vehemently denied it that
Speaker 1: there was any problem because if you look at your timeline, right,
Speaker 1: he leaves in ninety nine. Okay, whatever happens between ninety nine,
Speaker 1: this is O two. You guys reconcile and put whatever
Speaker 1: behind you in two thousand and nine, six and five,
Speaker 1: so that three years after this, you guys are shown
Speaker 1: on camera seeing each other for the first time. That's
Speaker 1: on freaking YouTube if anybody wants to watch it. And
Speaker 1: that was so like the anxiety. I had so much
Speaker 1: anxiety going into that weekend because it was like Shane
Speaker 1: Show was on Friday, WWF was on or WWE whatever
Speaker 1: they're called, that was on Sunday, and between the two shows,
Speaker 1: my anxiety was like through the roof. So I was
Speaker 1: very nervous. Well, they were like, oh, Jerry Bourn, you
Speaker 1: have to walk into this room and see and talk
Speaker 1: to Shane and I go all right, and he goes
Speaker 1: and we're gonna tape it and I go no, and
Speaker 1: he goes, no, we have to and I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is so awkward. It was very
Speaker 1: very bizarre and awkward. And somebody might have thought it
Speaker 1: was like, you know, this was all planned out. It wasn't.
Speaker 1: That was the most organic part of the night pretty much.
Speaker 1: That and the meet and greet afterwards with uh, you know,
Speaker 1: with us together. But it was just really weird. Do
Speaker 1: you do that a lot of like looking at the sky,
Speaker 1: you know, like trying not to address anything, you know.
Speaker 1: I remember saying to him, is this going to be
Speaker 1: like the Carry movie where I walk in and the
Speaker 1: blood is just falling? And then I'm not going to
Speaker 1: be on the show. And He's like no, no, no,
Speaker 1: and he goes in. I think I go in for
Speaker 1: a handshake, and Shane actually went in for the hug
Speaker 1: so and I was like, oh, oh, we're doing okay.
Speaker 1: That brings a tear. That brings a tear to my
Speaker 1: eye every time. Yeah, I know, bring with a tear
Speaker 1: in my eye. This is the greatest moment of my life.
Speaker 1: That's the greatest moment ever was the reuniting of the
Speaker 1: franchise of Francines. Troy wants to point out that the
Speaker 1: Yankees and Mets play this weekend Subway series style. We
Speaker 1: need to at least take two out of three from
Speaker 1: the Yankees. So Troy, good luck and young Shire, thank
Speaker 1: you for the bit, my friend, thank you for the bit.
Speaker 1: E CW is underrated. What do you think perfectly rate
Speaker 1: it underrated? ECW under come on? First of all, he's
Speaker 1: got a point. A lot of people. We've talked about this,
Speaker 1: a lot of people they say ECW was an Indie fed,
Speaker 1: a glorified Indie Fed, and I disagree with that. On yes,
Speaker 1: I think due to its place in history and the
Speaker 1: influence has had on the business then and now, there's
Speaker 1: absolutely zero discussion of ECW being under or over that word,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to say it. I would classify ECW
Speaker 1: as being perfectly grated. I do feel sometimes we are underrated.
Speaker 1: I feel sometimes ECW from uh, not so much from
Speaker 1: a fans point of view, but from people who have
Speaker 1: clout maybe in the business. They don't give us the
Speaker 1: recognition we deserve as a company. Yes, that's because they're jelly.
Speaker 1: That's why It's plain and simple. Think about the guys
Speaker 1: that probably either could have reinvented look at three weeks
Speaker 1: ago Luke and Butch, the Bushwhackers as the sheep Herders
Speaker 1: and ECW in ninety nine could have been literally revolutionary
Speaker 1: and gave them another dimension of their career. Didn't happen?
Speaker 1: I bet Luke wishes it did well. Yeah, And I
Speaker 1: was shocked to hear this story behind you because I
Speaker 1: never heard why they only made two appearances with us. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and to hear him say that, that's just makes me angry.
Speaker 1: You know, God knows how many people that happened to. Yeah,
Speaker 1: down the line, you know, one man gang's another one
Speaker 1: one man gang was in for a few shots here
Speaker 1: and there, but imagine a dominant, big, one man gang
Speaker 1: in that point. Maybe did he have the ww F stigma?
Speaker 1: Was it just that he's known as a cartoony guy.
Speaker 1: He probably fit in really well with you guys. He's
Speaker 1: a nice dude. Yeah, well we used him a lot
Speaker 1: more than well then the Bushwhackers. Yeah yeah, but just
Speaker 1: you know, when you hear a story like that and
Speaker 1: you've never heard that before, which just like because again
Speaker 1: there was a revolving door. In ECW, people came in,
Speaker 1: people went out. We were used to it. We had
Speaker 1: our mainstays, but then we had talent coming in and out.
Speaker 1: So when they came in, I never really thought that
Speaker 1: they were going to be here for the long run.
Speaker 1: And to hear Luke tell the story, it's just like, damn,
Speaker 1: that could have worked, you know. So that makes me
Speaker 1: sad because I really like him. I was, yeah, they
Speaker 1: got I'm telling you when they came through the curtain
Speaker 1: and those Dudley shirt they were instant heels. They got
Speaker 1: over it on the first night. It would have been great.
Speaker 1: So that makes me sad. But what can you do?
Speaker 1: What can you do? What he got going on July
Speaker 1: fourth weekend, I don't think anything. I'm going to be
Speaker 1: cursing the people who light those freaking fireworks at eleven
Speaker 1: o'clock because I'm going to be probably in bed trying
Speaker 1: to sleep. But no, I don't think the weather's going
Speaker 1: to be that great. I don't think we're doing much well,
Speaker 1: that's unfortunate. I think you guys should be out there
Speaker 1: shooting bottle rockets nine hundred feet in the air. I
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't know if it's legal where you
Speaker 1: are for fireworks in Virginia, all you gotta do is
Speaker 1: go to the store and there's a giant canopy tent
Speaker 1: of fireworks sales. Yeah, I'm too afraid to do it.
Speaker 1: I'm the guy who I'm gonna light a firework. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna blow my hand off, so I stay away. I
Speaker 1: don't mind everybody else doing them. I prefer not past
Speaker 1: a certain time in the night as well, But I'm
Speaker 1: never gonna touch one because I are you way too partying?
Speaker 1: Are you having a cookout? Or I would be partaking
Speaker 1: in festivities? Yes, at some point, I don't know where exactly,
Speaker 1: hopefully in the neighborhood. Looking to get a little something
Speaker 1: together in the neighborhood, stay close to home, and then
Speaker 1: do it up. As the kids say, I like your neighborhood.
Speaker 1: Your neighborhood. There's always a party going on. It seems
Speaker 1: like you're all like kind of the same age bracket.
Speaker 1: There's running around my neighborhood, all old people, uh not
Speaker 1: too many children. No one ever comes outside their house.
Speaker 1: You don't see a soul. I mean, if you hate people,
Speaker 1: you got to move near me, because you don't see
Speaker 1: anyone around here. Honestly. And in the summertime, everybody has
Speaker 1: a pool, so everybody's in their own backyard. No one
Speaker 1: plays on the street, you know. I just I don't
Speaker 1: like that. I like the way I grew up. There
Speaker 1: were forty kids on the block. Everybody was sitting on
Speaker 1: their porches. Yeah, windows open, you smelled the gravy. It
Speaker 1: was just it was a good time. And it's not
Speaker 1: like that around here, so it's a whole different world.
Speaker 1: It goes up, down, arts goes up and down. Sometimes
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people around. Sometimes there's not the
Speaker 1: thing about that there are a lot of kids in
Speaker 1: the same age range. So it is nice where they
Speaker 1: can just run off. But then, of course after two
Speaker 1: seconds somebody falls, somebody's got an injury. You got to
Speaker 1: pull them out. It's, you know, the usual thing. But
Speaker 1: it is very good to be able to just step outside.
Speaker 1: I hang out. You know. Sometimes it's hard and the
Speaker 1: old people start to talk to you and you're trying
Speaker 1: to just have fun. I would love it'd be nice.
Speaker 1: I wish I would. I would just you know, I
Speaker 1: know my two neighbors and the ones across the street
Speaker 1: and everybody else. I have no clue who they are.
Speaker 1: I wave and I walk, and you know, sometimes you
Speaker 1: see an old guy mowing his lawn, doesn't even look up.
Speaker 1: I'm all right then, just keep walking, you know. But
Speaker 1: I long for the days when there was always a
Speaker 1: kid outside to play. You know, kids weren't glued to
Speaker 1: their devices. It's just not like that anymore, and it
Speaker 1: just sucks. How was your cooking stream yesterday? What did
Speaker 1: you call so good? I have we ate probably half
Speaker 1: of the tray, so I have some left there. And
Speaker 1: it was great for me because it was soft enough
Speaker 1: for me to chew. Yeah, and it was. It was
Speaker 1: absolutely delicious. And I told everybody like, you guys can
Speaker 1: make this. It's so easy. And I showed everybody's stuff.
Speaker 1: I stepped out of there. Not hard at all. There's
Speaker 1: shortcuts you can take if you don't want to, you know,
Speaker 1: make your own gravey or sauce or it's just a
Speaker 1: simple dish. And it was. It was good and it
Speaker 1: was fun because instead of cooking by myself, I was
Speaker 1: just chatting with you know, everybody on twitch and they
Speaker 1: made it fun to cook. Has the a w live stream? Uh? Concluded?
Speaker 1: Are you doing you? Have you watched it? Are you
Speaker 1: just still talking during it. I you know, I watched.
Speaker 1: I made it a point to watch the girls because
Speaker 1: I wanted to see Vicky. I wanted to see what
Speaker 1: they were going to do with Vicky. I didn't read anything,
Speaker 1: but it looked like that rebel took a weird Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I was going to ask. I was. I
Speaker 1: said to the people in chat, like did she take
Speaker 1: a weird bump or because she did something? And then
Speaker 1: she did this slow out of the ring and she
Speaker 1: laid right next to like her opponent. Yeah, And I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's a no, no, you're not. Then I realized she's
Speaker 1: she's got to be heard or it's a work. I
Speaker 1: don't know, but I haven't seen anything that said she
Speaker 1: was hurt, so I don't know what happened. I think
Speaker 1: that I don't know if they're hiding things at this point,
Speaker 1: but she looked like she got wrecked. And it's like
Speaker 1: Wanzo one crutches legitimately a while ago, didn't she have
Speaker 1: I think she's a back issue or something like she's
Speaker 1: been she's had a lot of she's had issues, but
Speaker 1: it's like the injuries on AW are like out of control.
Speaker 1: Seems like every week, somebody's going down. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Do you know Trent BURRETTA, No, he's actually our buddy,
Speaker 1: Chris Pavon's old tag team partner. He's in AW he's
Speaker 1: in the best Friends with Chuck Taylor and Orange Cassidy's involved.
Speaker 1: He had to get neck fuse and surgery because he
Speaker 1: took a band like pile driver. And it's like every
Speaker 1: week these guys are going down. It's hard to watch.
Speaker 1: It's scary. I mean, I you know, I do my
Speaker 1: best to go back and forth from the chat over
Speaker 1: to the to the show. But when you you know,
Speaker 1: you have like a bunch of people asking you questions,
Speaker 1: you don't want to be rude and not answer them.
Speaker 1: So for the girls, I just said, listen, guys, let's
Speaker 1: just take you know, ten minutes and just why. I
Speaker 1: just want to see this one match. And that's when
Speaker 1: I noticed she went down. I was just like, oh,
Speaker 1: that didn't look good, so hopefully she's okay. But you
Speaker 1: don't want to see anyone get hurt, you know, It's
Speaker 1: it's a little scary. And Troy, thank you for thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, Troy. I was just going to say that
Speaker 1: I saw it pop it on my screen. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: don't take notifications, so if I don't look at the chat.
Speaker 1: See when I'm on Twitch, a gift comes up, if
Speaker 1: someone subscribes, if someone gives bits, see all those little
Speaker 1: little thingies, the little heart. Yeah, but it's not coming
Speaker 1: up on the screen. So she dislocated her knee. Oh
Speaker 1: damn okay, damn it. That sucks. That sucks. Yeah, she
Speaker 1: did that slow crawl and I was like, something's wrong
Speaker 1: with that girl for sure. So oh, I hope she
Speaker 1: has a speedy recovery. That's you know, you come off
Speaker 1: one injury and then boom, right away you get hurt again.
Speaker 1: So you gotta be you gotta be careful. That's why
Speaker 1: I always said to Shane, like, you know, he worked
Speaker 1: injured forever, and I'm like, if you get hurt while
Speaker 1: you're hurt, it's gonna make you double the time to recuperate,
Speaker 1: you know. And He's just like, no, you gotta work,
Speaker 1: you gotta get And I'm just but that was the
Speaker 1: work ethic of ECW. We all worked injured. I think
Speaker 1: Kenny omega Is is nursing some big injuries and they
Speaker 1: can't take him off TV. He's got like seven championships now,
Speaker 1: oh take the main guy off. Crazy, Yeah, just crazy.
Speaker 1: It's a shame. I don't want anybody to get hurt.
Speaker 1: Especially it's literally every weekend. Now they've gotten account on
Speaker 1: Twitter called ae W botches. Have you seen AW botches? No?
Speaker 1: I have not. You know why? Well AW is going
Speaker 1: after them hard, trying to get them shut down. And
Speaker 1: all they do is basically show like replayed like little
Speaker 1: like two second clips or they'll you know, they'll show
Speaker 1: you the botch And Tony Kahan has gone on his
Speaker 1: own to try to get these pages taken down. He's
Speaker 1: on a mission, a mission copyright flags and everything. Wow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't hide it. I mean, it happens. There's a
Speaker 1: ton of stuff. We just we watched the match for
Speaker 1: a watch along this week. That was crystal clear, picture perfect.
Speaker 1: There wasn't a botch out to be found. But they
Speaker 1: happen in matches and you can't say no, I mean
Speaker 1: unless it was taped and you could literally cut it
Speaker 1: out or you guys have to do it again. Can't
Speaker 1: do anything about it. It's it's live, it's in front
Speaker 1: of you. You can't hide those things, right, and it happens,
Speaker 1: not you know, we're not perfect. Things go wrong, and
Speaker 1: you know, when people mess up, it's unfortunate. But you know,
Speaker 1: at least these guys aren't getting hurt. It's when it's
Speaker 1: when a botch happens and then they break a let
Speaker 1: or they you know, like you said, he had to
Speaker 1: get next surgery or whatever. I mean, I'd rather see
Speaker 1: somebody mess up and be able to stand up and
Speaker 1: move on. Why do we have to make fun of
Speaker 1: these flaws? These guys and girls are out there kind
Speaker 1: of risking life and limb to entertain, and then you
Speaker 1: get the haters that just come on and just throw
Speaker 1: hate and make fun of people. And it's like, let
Speaker 1: me see you try and do that. You think you
Speaker 1: can do that better, because I would love to see
Speaker 1: you try. Probably not I will. I'll go try right now,
Speaker 1: Go out and you do that. Shock find my local
Speaker 1: independent promotion here. There's actually not my local area. Have

Speaker 1: my TMPT partner John, he's gotten in. He was John
Speaker 1: took a class taking bumps. He actually did take some bumps.
Speaker 1: I forget which school, one of the schools in Pennsylvania
Speaker 1: and Shane had a match in Philly at the ECWRATA
Speaker 1: where John actually got involved and got punched by Louke
Speaker 1: Hawks and he got tagged. But I give him credit
Speaker 1: for doing it. I never wanted to. I never did.
Speaker 1: It's just not something nice. I like being a host.
Speaker 1: I love doing that, but I know it's's never been

Speaker 1: would you rate John's Bone? I actually never saw it.
Speaker 1: I couldn't make that show. It was the same night
Speaker 1: as my grandma's ninetieth birthday party and I couldn't go.
Speaker 1: If I had an excuse, it was that one, and
Speaker 1: that was the last time I hadn't seen Shane. From
Speaker 1: that show to January of this year, I hadn't seen
Speaker 1: in a year and a half. But I was supposed
Speaker 1: to be at that one. It was November, I think
Speaker 1: November twenty nineteen. I can't remember, but still I from
Speaker 1: what I heard, was very good. Yeah, I wasn't sure
Speaker 1: if you, like ever had like I know you wouldn't
Speaker 1: follow through, But like aspirations to be a worker, no,
Speaker 1: I always wanted to do the creative stuff. I literally,
Speaker 1: anything I've ever wanted to do in wrestling I have.
Speaker 1: I worked behind the scenes at WWE, in production, I've
Speaker 1: worked producing stuff at independent shows. I've hosted things in
Speaker 1: the ring. That's that's all I ever wanted. I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm not that skilled. I'm at I could be athletic.
Speaker 1: I love game of baseball. I played baseball. I can
Speaker 1: do that, but I just it's never been my thing,
Speaker 1: even like, I never want to be a manager, never
Speaker 1: want to do any of that. I just want to
Speaker 1: be in the creative ent and produce. Would you if
Speaker 1: the opportunity came up, would you be like a guest manager? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I would do something like that for sure.
Speaker 1: Why are we making a comeback? No? Maybe in your corner,
Speaker 1: I've you know, I've recently had an epiphany. Oh I've
Speaker 1: been It's been shot down by several people, but you know,
Speaker 1: I ultimately make the decision. And I you know, I
Speaker 1: was thinking maybe this should be my last year on
Speaker 1: the road, and then I said to myself, well, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm going to be fifty in February, believe it or not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I feel like next year might be my Swansea.
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, like the fifty and Fabulous tour. Maybe
Speaker 1: maybe that's my last year to be out there because
Speaker 1: I'm not out there that much, okay, especially because of
Speaker 1: this whole coronavirus. You know, we we had a lot
Speaker 1: of time to be home, but I realize, like everything
Speaker 1: that's important to me is here and I'm not living
Speaker 1: for the road. I don't like being away from the house.
Speaker 1: And like I you know, I don't want to say
Speaker 1: too much about this, and I'll make an announcement soon,
Speaker 1: but I just got a project handed to me yesterday
Speaker 1: that could be something really really good, and I was
Speaker 1: talking to my husband about it, and it's it's five
Speaker 1: days that I have to be gone, and I have
Speaker 1: anxiety about it, and you know, he's like, well we
Speaker 1: we can, you know, get somebody to come in and
Speaker 1: help with your mom, and we could do this. We do,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, do I really want to be going
Speaker 1: that long? Like five days might not be a long
Speaker 1: time to sum but for me being away from my
Speaker 1: kids and not being able to help my mom, it's
Speaker 1: a long time. And like a lot of these conventions,
Speaker 1: you have to be away for four or five days.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to do it that
Speaker 1: much anymore. And I know people are doing this into
Speaker 1: their seventies. That's not going to be me. I don't
Speaker 1: want to do that. So I'm thinking next year might
Speaker 1: be it interesting. And I'm not saying I'm going to
Speaker 1: shut down like this stuff because I'm yeah, I'm home
Speaker 1: doing this. This is very convenient for me. Just the
Speaker 1: traveling and like my kids crying when I'm gone, and
Speaker 1: it just it makes me sad, like I don't I
Speaker 1: just don't want to leave them anymore, you know, And
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I like the sound
Speaker 1: of the fifty and fabulous fabulous Tour. Yeah, now what
Speaker 1: about the what about the like all right, let's say
Speaker 1: fifty and fabulous, that's gonna be my say goodbye to
Speaker 1: the road. But what if you get a one off?
Speaker 1: Like the one offs it's not happening. No, what if
Speaker 1: it's like, hey it's wrestle cuhnn, or hey it's this
Speaker 1: big Let me all right, let me ask you this. Okay,
Speaker 1: fifty in Fabulous Tour. We're doing hypotheticals here, Okay, what
Speaker 1: if you get a hey, I'm a promotion in England?
Speaker 1: And I would love to bring you in for a
Speaker 1: Q and A and a couple signings. It's X number
Speaker 1: of dollars, but you're fifty one at this point. You
Speaker 1: just don't know. I don't want to leave the States, okay,
Speaker 1: I have no desire to even like do Canada, and
Speaker 1: no offense to to our uh our fans overseas. I
Speaker 1: love you, but I just I don't have it in me.
Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't know. I'm really and it
Speaker 1: could change next year. I mean, maybe something will happen
Speaker 1: that'll change my mind. But if you had to ask
Speaker 1: me today and I had to give like an answer,
Speaker 1: I would say probably next year is like it for me.
Speaker 1: All right, So that sounds good. Now I'm gonna throw
Speaker 1: some some Kiss questions. You know. Kiss. They're a great band.
Speaker 1: They travel all the time. Kiss has been on their
Speaker 1: farewell tour for like five years, right, could we see?
Speaker 1: It's also making twelve million dollars a piece, So you know,
Speaker 1: if you want to throw that money my way, I'll
Speaker 1: do it another extra year or two. Maybe. You know.
Speaker 1: That's my favorite thing, is the farewell tours, like in
Speaker 1: the music scene, where you really have to look through
Speaker 1: like the fine print. So it's like the Kiss farewell tour,
Speaker 1: but maybe it's the Kiss farewell tour with that lineup,
Speaker 1: and now they bring out two more other guys to
Speaker 1: be the other two members of Kiss, and now they
Speaker 1: do the next set of farewell tours. That's like, I
Speaker 1: always love looking through the fine print of a goodbye tour.
Speaker 1: But you know, I respect your decisions. I think that
Speaker 1: that's wonderful of all about the family stuff. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that's where I'm at. I mean, I just thought,
Speaker 1: maybe next year, just do as much as I possibly can.
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't know, it could change,
Speaker 1: but right like today, that's where I'm at. And thank
Speaker 1: you for my friends. Thank you for appreciate you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I get exhausted quickly, I
Speaker 1: get I miss them. I know people are like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's a break, you know, take a break for me.
Speaker 1: I like being home. I like being surrounded by my family.
Speaker 1: It's a heartache for me to be away, and I
Speaker 1: just can't When I'm there, I'm having fun, but I
Speaker 1: can't wait to get home. I feel the same way
Speaker 1: about you or about the situation, but different situations. I mean,
Speaker 1: me anytime. And you know me, whenever I do something,
Speaker 1: I am so freaking gone, yeah, same day, because I
Speaker 1: don't care if I'm five hours away from home and
Speaker 1: I got a drive, or in the case where I
Speaker 1: was suck in Boston, I was making every effort to
Speaker 1: get home the same day because I'm the same exact way.
Speaker 1: My wedding song is Don't want to Miss a Thing
Speaker 1: by Aerosmith. Picked it for a reason, folks, Yeah, for
Speaker 1: a reason. Yeah. The kids grow too fast. It goes
Speaker 1: by too quickly. I don't want to miss stuff, and
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I just feel guiltful. I
Speaker 1: feel guilty taking bookings and I know that sounds idiotic,
Speaker 1: but to see my kids upset when I leave it
Speaker 1: makes me feel bad, you know, And I don't like it.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I'm just Are you a souvenir purchaser?
Speaker 1: Do you buy them something from the area that you're
Speaker 1: in it? Did they not care? I don't get to
Speaker 1: go anywhere in the airport, you know, Hey, I was
Speaker 1: in I was in you know, uh, Nashville. Here's a guitar. No,
Speaker 1: because every day we're buying stuff off of Amazon in
Speaker 1: this house. Is that not like the greatest like uh,
Speaker 1: you know, like joke of all time that everything now
Speaker 1: is purchased off of Amazon. I look at my bank
Speaker 1: account and it could be like seventeen consecutive purchases, it's all.
Speaker 1: And you have to get the Amazon credit card. Oh,
Speaker 1: haven't gotten that note? Oh it's five percent back on
Speaker 1: all purchases. It's great because if you use Amazon a lot,
Speaker 1: you need that credit card. We both have it. Me
Speaker 1: and Helbs have our own credit card for our own
Speaker 1: Amazon accounts. I'm always using Amazon. So the kids are
Speaker 1: bullying me. They have enough shit in this house. They
Speaker 1: help need anything else. They've actually gotten to the point where,
Speaker 1: I mean, the Amazon business is so crazy, like they
Speaker 1: do everything that I've actually stopped even purchasing stuff from
Speaker 1: distributors because I'm getting it cheaper on Amazon. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: Like the big thing with myself are Baseball's right, you
Speaker 1: always need extra baseballs. Well through the distributor, you're still
Speaker 1: getting them for like sixteen or seven teen dollars a piece,
Speaker 1: and that's wholesale. Amazon had on sale for fourteen the
Speaker 1: other day, So I'm like click, Oh, I just got
Speaker 1: a giant delivery of Baseball's to my house because you
Speaker 1: would have got five percent back on that purpose if
Speaker 1: you want to have damn it. And then when you
Speaker 1: go buy something else, they'll say, would you like to
Speaker 1: apply your forty dollars blah blah blah, And it's like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: then you pick like two dollars and thirty two cents
Speaker 1: for things because you have all these points. It's great
Speaker 1: as a damn good point. Yeah it is. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. So that's where I'm at. But this

Speaker 1: we want to you want to do the Patreon weekly.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the extras this week and what people
Speaker 1: can see. It's all about Patreon, folks. It's right there
Speaker 1: Patreon dot com. A franccene podcast. If you like franccene,
Speaker 1: if you like podcasting, it's the perfect marriage. We do
Speaker 1: four shows a week, including this. This is Eyes up Here.
Speaker 1: This is our main show, but we give you three
Speaker 1: extras in addition to this video version of Eyes up Here.
Speaker 1: You ready for what we're going to be doing this week,
Speaker 1: Well you already know because you were there. I'm ready.
Speaker 1: The first thing we're doing is a Patreon member spotlight.
Speaker 1: So what we do is when you sign up for Patreon,
Speaker 1: you have the opportunity to come on, say hi, introduce
Speaker 1: yourself to franccene, and I tell us about yourself, what
Speaker 1: you look forward to with Eyes up Here, And might
Speaker 1: I say this is for any tier level, so you
Speaker 1: don't have to, you know, go to the highest tier level.
Speaker 1: Even at our lowest level, which is ten dollars a month,
Speaker 1: you get to come on and chat with me and Chad,
Speaker 1: and you know, we get to know you a little better.
Speaker 1: So I think this is a great opportunity for anyone
Speaker 1: who's ever wanted to do a one on one with me. Well,
Speaker 1: now you get a two on one because U Chad
Speaker 1: never goes away, He's always here, so it'll be it'll
Speaker 1: be a three give me the three of us like
Speaker 1: a bad like what do you call pimple or something?
Speaker 1: I just don't go away easy. You got to really
Speaker 1: like a little mosquito, the one mosquito that's always nipping
Speaker 1: at you. That's right, catch them out of thin air.
Speaker 1: But at our highest here you actually get to co
Speaker 1: host the show and format it in whichever way you want.
Speaker 1: And we've seen in the past that has been a
Speaker 1: launching pad for other members who want to go off
Speaker 1: and do other things. Yeah, they start their own podcast,
Speaker 1: which is great. So if you want some practice, come
Speaker 1: on over to us and we'll help you out with that.
Speaker 1: But it is a fun time. I do like the
Speaker 1: one on one. You know, we get to know you,
Speaker 1: not just the name that I see. I get to
Speaker 1: know the faces. And it's it's nice for me because
Speaker 1: I'm a people person and I love to talk to
Speaker 1: people and to see your face and uh, get to
Speaker 1: know a little more about you is what I like.
Speaker 1: Because y'all know about me. I need to learn more
Speaker 1: about you, that's right. And you get to talk to
Speaker 1: me because I get to set it all up, so
Speaker 1: you get to talk to him, and the first person
Speaker 1: who signs up today we'll get that at a extra yes,
Speaker 1: so the first email that we get coming through is
Speaker 1: the one that wins' that's correct. And then also this
Speaker 1: week you can do a little trivia with us. We
Speaker 1: do some wrestling trivia, and this is something we'll pull
Speaker 1: out every so often. We kind of had an idea
Speaker 1: of what we were going to do, but we flipped
Speaker 1: the switch. We did some wrestling trivia, and you will
Speaker 1: be surprised when you listen to this trivia and see
Speaker 1: how well our suppose Oh, I don't know anything about
Speaker 1: wrestling person did on the trivia portion of this show.
Speaker 1: I didn't do that great. Yes you did. I don't
Speaker 1: think I did. I think you did. I personally think
Speaker 1: you did. I did, Okay, I didn't. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe if for not watching the product that much, I
Speaker 1: did pretty well, but I think most of our members
Speaker 1: will beat me. I think that most questions had a
Speaker 1: had like a haven't happened in the last ten years.
Speaker 1: They were all a little older, some of the questions,
Speaker 1: So maybe that's a lot of stuff I didn't watch
Speaker 1: so I was pulling answers out my ass and one
Speaker 1: of them will shock you. So this was a great
Speaker 1: one and even you popped for this. The watch along
Speaker 1: this week, Living Dangerously nineteen ninety nine Shane Douglas and
Speaker 1: a unexpected techning partner, Tommy Dreamer with Francine taking on
Speaker 1: Just Incredible and Lance Storm. What a great match that
Speaker 1: got one star. It got one star. Yes, no, it
Speaker 1: was fun. Again. I do not watch I don't watch
Speaker 1: any wrestling except for if I do the aw watch
Speaker 1: alongs on Twitch right. I never even when we had
Speaker 1: the ww network, I never sat there and pulled up
Speaker 1: old things just to watch them. I don't watch stuff.
Speaker 1: So this watch along it's great because it jars my
Speaker 1: memory because he have the things I don't remember. And
Speaker 1: like today, when you said it to me, I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't remember this. And then as soon as I
Speaker 1: came out the current, I remember this and everything falls
Speaker 1: into place. So I will tell you what we were
Speaker 1: talking about backstage, What was happening, you know, while I
Speaker 1: was in the ring, what was going through my head?
Speaker 1: Insider information that you will not get anywhere else. So
Speaker 1: Patreon is the place to be great. It literally toggled
Speaker 1: your memory. It was great. Yeah, And I just went
Speaker 1: to say hi to my bestie Betty. Good afternoon, my love,
