Speaker 1 (00:00):
H h.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
The most hardcore audience I think there's ever been. But
I could stand corrected. But here we actually we're about
to be joined by our guests already.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Who has his.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
WWF tie or excuse me, w W E get to
about allegiances as we welcome in the one and only,
the Great Scott Stanford here today.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Where is he?
Speaker 5 (00:52):
There?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
He is?
Speaker 5 (00:53):
Guys, what's happening? What's up?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Scott visible?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
For a second, I would.
Speaker 5 (00:58):
Tell you, guys, changing my camera for.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
There you go?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Look at you?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
What's that accent?
Speaker 5 (01:05):
I live in the New York area New York.
Speaker 6 (01:10):
Everybody says that I have a New York accent, but
I'm originally from Philadelphia, and so I feel like my
accent is way different from your New York.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well here's here's the thing. When I am on the air,
I will change my voice to sound a little more
non New York.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I like it. Don't you change for anyone, Scott?
Speaker 5 (01:32):
You listen. I'm not going to be asked you guys.
I'm here for one reason and one reason only. I
came to play America's favorite game show, porn Star or
Baseball Player.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Did you love it? You love that one? Scott?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Well, I'm so thrilled that you're here because I always
have to just play with Chad and you know it's
all right.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
But I don't think you can handle it though I
don't know it's uh throw you for a loop?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Are we gonna play against each other?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I'm gonna how about it?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Before we get rolling? How about we do a little
rapid fire? How about that?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
May I say one thing?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
I feel like I'm at a disadvantage because I feel
like Scott would know more about baseball players than I do.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
I also know more about porn stars than you do
as well.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
That's another thing because I haven't watched porn in years,
so I might be a little rusty.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Sure I swear listen.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Since I've had my children, my whole life has changed.
I don't have time for porn anymore. I just want
to sleep, and I don't even get to sleep anymore.
So I'll you know, no porn for me, but I'll
do my best, all right?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Who would like to go first? We'll get it.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Let you know what.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
We let our guest go first? Yes, that would be
that would be fitting.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Now, I don't have all of the great uh little
uh descriptions for this because we're going rapid fire.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
All right, But Scott, I'm gonna let you go first
baseball player or porn star?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Go ahead?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Richard Cheese?
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Oh you mean Dick Cheese as he goes, friends call him. Uh,
let's see Richard Cheese. That's a good one. I'm gonna go.
Didn't he star? And white men? Can't hump? Richard Cheese?
Or no, my god.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
If you know titles, I am going to fat.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
So your final answer would be porn star.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go baseball player.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You are incorrect. Oh Cheese is a porn star?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
He wasn't can't hump?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
He probably was? Did he win an Aviana Award?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I don't have the information available at.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I don't want you to think I'm a degenerate. The
only reason I know these names is because one one
WrestleMania back in New York, I was part of Dolls
Ziggler's comedy night, and I roasted Dolph a little bit,
saying how he looks like the pizza delivery in a
porn movie. And I started throwing out these these titles
(04:04):
and names, and that that's the only reason why I know.
But I'm because I only watch once a day, so
I wouldn't really get to know all of the porn
starf Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
You're you're down to one movie to day.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
No, Francis, you're giving me too much credit. It's it's
one three minute clip a day.
Speaker 1 (04:22):

Speaker 3 (04:24):
With time to spare sometimes.

info for me.

Speaker 5 (09:25):
Oh, Ryan Driller. Oh that's a good one. That's you
know what I'm going. I'm going porn star on that one.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Ryan Driller is indeed a porn star. Although he could
have been a middle reliever somewhere. I'm sure at some
point that was really good. But you as you stipped
your games up with the compared to the last showing Francine,
I will say that was.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I read in the newspaper that you didn't know Rusty
stopped the last time you played this game. In the newspaper,
I read that we made the sheets.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I didn't know a lot of things last time.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I'm trying to like listen to the last name and
like put it into a scenario, and sometimes it works,
and sometimes.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
It's the biggest pop came from Pete Lacock. So the
next week I had to bring the Pete Lacock baseball card.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Indeed show this was a baseball player.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh god, that's hilarious.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
Well, there was a guy by the name of Dick
is in you who played for the Astro.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
No get out of here?
Speaker 6 (10:33):
Could you imagine going to school with a name like that, Like,
please call me Richard.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Call me Richard, don't call me Dick.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Scott. Let's let's let's get her mind own of the dutter.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
And right, that's true. I forgot why I was here exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Let's put you over a little bit. Seven time Emmy winner.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Really that you're gonna bring talk, Well you mean you
mean this?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
He hasn't Scott? Do you have seven of those in
your house. Oh my god, can you juggle with them?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
That's why he wanted the wide shot. That's why he
wanted the wide shot.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
You wanted a wide shot?
Speaker 6 (11:14):
If you Oh my goodness, Yeah, that's impressive.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Now are you a married man, Scott?
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Unfortunately? Yes, friend.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
I was gonna say, do you use them as lever?
Do you use them as leverage with your wife to
get action?
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Because well, listen, every time I walk into my bedroom,
I say, hey, baby, you ever sleep with a seventh
time Emmy winner? And she goes no, he says no,
and I'm still not.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Oh well, she knows what's going on? Hell, how do
we win seven Emmys in a lifetime?
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I think back when we had our kids. I only
had four at the time, so that was probably the
last time. No, you know what I Listen, I've been
a sports and news anchor here in New York, yes,
for since about two thousand and three, okay, and you
know every year they have the Emmy Awards and I've
I've won seven. I've won one for the morning show
(12:06):
that I used to do with my partner Suki who
we have our show at night now, and I won
six others for on cap the be the best sports
anchor in New York on camera perform.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I love that that. Well, you're very charismatic. I could.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
I could just tell by the little conversation we had
that's that's impressive.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
And I've I've never won a Slammy Award though in
my life. That's something that's never happened.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
Well, I think in Emmy Trump's Slammy. In my opinion,
you're you're better off with the Emmy. How did you
get involved in in the sports world so to speak?
Now you started doing the commentating for the news and.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Right right, no, I I basically everything kind of felt,
you know, you have you have to. We had this
conversation of the day on our show with Kevin you
Banks used to be the Tonight Show director musical director, right,
you know, it's you could have all the talent in
the world, but just like WWE, it's always good to
have a little luck to get yourself in a position
to you know, show off those talents. Uh. And I
(13:10):
just happened to, you know, I had a friend call
me about doing sports one day and I ended up
doing sports on the radio here in New York, which
led to me doing sports on TV for the Fox station,
uh and the UPN nine station, which is how I
kind of got into WWE. And then just you know,
when when you're in broadcasting, you constantly move from you know,
you move up, you move up, you move up till
(13:31):
till you get to a certain level.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
And I've been on a bunch of different stations here
in New York, you know, as a sports reporter, a
sports anchor, and it's just once, you know, once, once
you get on the air, it's always easier to get
a job somewhere else while you're on the air, you know,
because it's in this business with with ww as well,
you got to you gotta be on to stay relevant,
(13:54):
right and once you're out of sight, out of mind. Uh,
there's so many things going on right now. If you
don't stay present, people will just kind of forget about you.
So you know, I kind of slowly moved up here here,
a little more money here, a little better position here.
Speaker 6 (14:09):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
And that's really how it worked out. And I just
did this. I always wanted to be a game show
host or me and gene Oakerland love it.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Okay, So the.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Sports, the whole sports thing just kind of fell into
my lap. People always oh, man, you must be watching
sports all day long, and you know the short answer
is no, you're watching watching porn all day in between WWE.
So it's listen.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
You know.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
I have a little time for sports. I watched the
highlights like everybody else, and then I report on it.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
My favorite is Geene Rayburn from me.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
I love Geene Raybn.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
I love him and his long microphone, long mic good
enough and Charles and Riley.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That show is like the best. I'd agree with you
on game shows. I would love to be a game
show host.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
The best beverage since I saw Bob, Bob Barker always
hung around with beautiful women, Dianne Parkinson and all those
jan right they were had an affair. I got to
be this guy. Oh yeah, I think Bob Bob slept
with all of them.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Well, I know Dianne Parkinson or whatever her name is,
that she admitted that she had an affair.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
With mister Barker.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
So how do you go from you know, you mentioned
a little bit you started on the sports How do
you go from there to getting a job with WWF
at the time or ww A. Did they contact you
or were you trying to get into the company.
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Well, here's the funny thing. I was the sports actor
Fox and UPN. We're together here in New York, Okay,
So I was the sports guy at both stations SmackDown
about eleven years ago. Because I've been here for eleven
years now, SmackDown Friday night SmackDown came to the UPN network,
right if you recall. And once it came to the
(15:55):
UPN network, you know, whenever something starts off, you make
a big deal about it. So they wanted a guy,
and I'm in the New York area closest to WWE.
They wanted a guy who can go out and do
feature pieces for all the news programs that would come
on at ten o'clock after SmackDown. Smackdowns on from eight
(16:16):
to ten on Friday nights. Ten o'clock to eleven o'clock
was all the local UPN newscast that would come on
in all the markets, right, So they wanted it. So
how do you keep that? How do you keep that
audience that's watching Friday night SmackDown? You put a little
t's into the show coming up on the UPN nine
News at ten, you know, hul Cogan Caught with his
pants down in Florida, you know, or the Bella Twins
(16:39):
or something. So I was the guy who worked with
WWE on all those feature pieces. So I would go So,
let's say WWE was at Madison Square Garden. I would
go to the garden. We would set up like ten
interviews the big show and all the you know, seeing
all those guys CM Punk at the time. They would
(17:00):
come into a room with me and I would literally
sit and do like a five minute interview with each superstar. Okay,
so now you have five pieces in the can for
the next five weeks of shows. You would put together
a piece with b roll and video and this and that, so,
you know, coming up after after SmackDown on the upn
nine news. You know CM Punk's favorite, you know, Hobby
(17:22):
blah blah blah, we'll have it coming up after the
you know. So it was kind of a way to
keep that SmackDown audience on Friday nights, to stick with
the news coming up after smack because it's a totally
different demographic of course, right for folks who are going
to watch the news. So they wanted to try and
hook the people who are wrestling fans So anyway, long
story short, I was the guy working with WWE to
(17:45):
do all these pieces, so it was almost like I
worked for them already. I had all these I had
all these videos and me interviewing everybody and doing pieces
at WrestleMania and this and that and this and that.
So when the time came, I got a call from
the PR guy said, hey, we're looking for a new
studio host. Vince Saw. They narrowed it down from three
(18:07):
hundred tapes. Vince narrowed it down to three. He hated
the three that we showed him. Put together a quick
and we'll show it to Vince. They showed my demo
to Vince. He said, get this guy up, get this
guy up here, and that was that. I went up.
I auditioned with Joey Styles. I remember I love.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Joe How can I forget?
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Yeah? Yeah. He took me through a little audition process.
We called a few matches together and did a few things,
and I did a couple of pretend interviews, and uh,
here I am eleven years later. I basically you know,
I'm still still going strong. People. It's funny because once
in a while on Twitter I'll s when I do
a kickoff show for a pay per view. People are like,
(18:49):
I didn't even know this guy was still at the company.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
Right, I'm like, OK, I appreciate that. But yeah, So
it's it's been eleven years and in this pandemic, I've
been doing all the kickoff pay per view pre shows
as well, because everything's done right in Stanford, Connecticut, right
and next Saturday, I'm doing the NXT kickoff show with
Sam Roberts again, and you know, we got Summer Slam
(19:16):
coming up, and I've been doing this week in WWE
forever and it's just been great. I love it. I
still love it. Every day is like the first day
for me.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
See, And that's what you mean.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
You need to love what you're doing or else you're
going to be miserable. We say that all the time. Yeah,
and it's interesting because I always say, you never know
who's watching always, you know what I mean? So you
here you are, you're on a local network news and
then they see you and then you get this opportunity
to do their show as well.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
So yeah, you're double dippin' you're here.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
There, And you know what's funny, I've worked at NBC
four here in New York. I was the news anchor
it Picks eleven here in New York, the morning show
host WWE never I never missed a day. It never
interfered with anything I was doing. Uh. There were times
where I was doing a Monday night Raw pre show
and a Tuesday night SmackDown pre show with Booker and
(20:12):
Corey and Otunga. I would do my five and six
o'clock newscast. I jump on the train at Grand Central
up to Connecticut for a seven o'clock show. Seven to
eight o'clock we would do, Yeah, we would do the
pre show, hang out after, have a little dinner. I
jump into a car, they take me back down for
the ten o'clock news. So my Mondays and Tuesdays were
(20:35):
pretty hectic. But it's it's none of it's like working
for me exactly. It's so much fun. I love doing it.
Nothing is like work for me.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Were you a wrestling fan growing up?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I was?
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I was. I was.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
I used to walk around the house pretending I was mean.
Gene Yeah a child.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
As a child, so you didn't want to be a wrestler.
You wanted to be mean, Gene okerl.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
I always wanted to be mean, Gene. I always loved
Vince when he was the you know, the the commentator
on the side of the ring, back when I was
watching on the Spanish stations, when I was a cad
and when my brother, who's still a cameraman to this day,
he got his first like camquarder back in the day,
those giant things they used to sell. When he got
his first camp corder, the first thing we did was
(21:19):
put me in front of like one of those old
wrestling advertisement posters, you know, Pedro Morales and Brunos San Martina. Yeah,
And I was literally all right, ladies and gentlemen, this
Monday night haul Cogan. Oh forget it, I am. And
then when I got to meet me and Jean and
work with him, it was, you know, it was just
a thrill for me.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
That's adorable.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
You should have taken that footage if you still had it,
and I have it on your highlight reel.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Oh, I love that. I want to see that. That's
so cute.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
I have it if I actually I have it on
my phone. I wish I would. I could have emailed
it to you could have played it.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Follow you after on Twitter.
Speaker 6 (21:57):
Yeah, I want to keep I want to I like
to follow the guests and see what I love, like something.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I love Justin Roberts, who.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
I'm sure you know, Oh, sure, good friend.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, he's a he's a great guy. I love him
to death.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
And I love how he always puts up like his
pictures when he's a kid with and then and then
you see him in the ring.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
Yeah, my dad used to take us here in New
York to the Westchester County Center.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, I think I've worked there.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
You probably have always one of the stops. It's a little, tiny,
small little venue in Western I'm sure when I was
a little kid, we used to see like Andre the
Giant and Ivan Putsky would be there, and I just
happened to have this.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Look at.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
There, that's Andre. I don't know who's on. I could
be doctor Dave Schultz. I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I can't tell, but it looks like they just weren't
tights because Schultz would have had the single.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
That's amazing.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
There's Andre. That was at the Chester County Center, and
I always remember had the shirt that said Polish Power
for Ivan Putski and I love it. We were big fans.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
I love that venue. That's always been one of my favorites.
I saw shows there many times. It's a that's a
it's an interesting one because they run conventions there.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I think the Westchester Knicks play there. It's like it
can do it, can do it all.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we ran there. The name is
ringing a bell.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
It's It's sad. I don't remember much these days. I
think because I hit my head so many times.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
My memory is gone.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
When were you? When were you there? Did I ever
see you backstage?
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Or because I worked for w w E in two thousand,
I did two thousand and five The One Light Stand
Pay for View, and then in two thousand and six
I had signed a contract for the New East. The
Fake e c W is what I call.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It, fake whatever you want.
Speaker 6 (23:50):
It didn't live up to expectations, but I was there
for about six months and then I got the good
old we have nothing for you, got cha?
Speaker 5 (24:00):
You know I started. I started in nine.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Yeah, I was gone.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
Yeah, okay, I was already pregnant and having my first shot.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Listen, and now in the pandemic, right, we're all shooting
in our homes. I'm gonna take my camera. Here's here's
my WWE set.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Right over here. O, god, that's awesome.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
I got my posters, so I sit in front of those, okay,
and you got a nice little set there, and I
do all my shows from there. So it's uh, it's
great when it's nice at obviously, I'll do it like
in my backyard so it opens up. You see some trees.
But back in in March, when we first started doing
the you know, the pandemic hit and the weather wasn't nice,
(24:44):
I stole a few posters from the from headquarters, got
myself a nice little set.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Look that's gonna come.
Speaker 6 (24:51):
Out of your paycheck into the warehouse.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
That's funny. Do you have a favorite interview.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Of anything? Oh? Boy, god, you know what. Someone asked
me this the other day. And I've done so many.
I mean, I've met so many celebrities, so many athletes.
Even the show that we've been doing, uh, the Suki
and Scott Show, which is on Facebook Live every night.
You know, it's kind of like the Tonight Show. We
(25:22):
have celebrities and entertainers. So we'll have a celebrity uh.
You know, we had Taylor Dane on the other night. Lisa, Lisa,
we're singing, we're dancing, you know, George Lopez and god,
you know, doing the morning show in New York, You'd
be on the set doing a story and in the
commercial break a celebrity would just come walking in, you know,
(25:46):
like Cheryl Ladd from Charlie's Angels, and I'm like, oh
my god, I used to have your poster on my wall.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Awesome.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
Yeah, there's too many of them. I can't even can't
even you know, say, oh, I have a favorite that
I've done. There are favorite people, like in sports that
I loved working with right right athletes who were always
you know, a little nicer than others. But it's just
a god, I've done so many I don't even I
couldn't even come up with a name for you.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Let's reverse it. And you don't have to answer this
because I never answer it.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Do you have anyone that you despised that was so
hard to interview that they just didn't want to be there?
Speaker 5 (26:24):
Not hard to interview? Uh, there are some people that
I and I don't despise a lot of people. There
are some I do despise, mostly sports stars because you know,
I had a chance to be in the locker rooms
with everybody for a long time, right and people always
used to say to me, Oh, that must be so cool.
You're in the Yankee locker room with Jeter and a
Rod and all these gain and the Giants and Strahan
(26:47):
and all these And I said, you know what it
to be. That's at the start, it was very cool.
Right now in my career, it's how quick can I
get in and how quick can I get out?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
I want to get out of here.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
I want to get out. But yes, there are I
there are a couple of people who I just think
are kind of like dbs, if you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
Okay, yeah, And you don't have to name names, you know,
at this point in the game, like I don't heal
anyone because why bother?
Speaker 5 (27:15):
Right, it doesn't right, it doesn't matter. Even even when
I see them like on Twitter, I'm like, oh, you
just you just want to you just want to clock
them in the head, you know, right. And the thing is,
you know, and I've seen it firsthand. You know, they're athletes,
not really celebrities, but athletes. These guys make so much
money and they are they're in a world that we
(27:37):
will never know unless you win the lottery, you'll never
know what it's like to be an athlete and pampered
and not paying for anything and just treated like you
are absolute royalty and you and you're still a putts,
you know what I mean. You still act like the
weight of the world is on your shoulders with all
the things going on around you in the world and
(27:58):
people who are suffering, and you got a life of
a king and you're still you're still a dB. You
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
And I look it up if you don't know what
that means.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Yeah, yeah, just initials, just initial understood.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
Well, I think you're delightful. I'm so happy to meet you.
There's so many people in this business I've never met,
so anytime we get like somebody I haven't met before
and they're nice, pop because because you know, some people
can be dbs as well.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
That's what I'm saying is there's no reason not to
be nice. It's like, what's the what's the point?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Right?
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Well, some people are just miserable in life and they're
being change. But you're delightful and and I wish you
the best of luck.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
Do you have any questions?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
No, I mean I talked to Scout a couple of
months ago, right after me and Jean passed away and
he kind of told, uh, you know, the whole story
about like kind of what he was saying. But you know,
I'll throw one at you, just you know, from the
kind of the studying factor when talking to me and Gene,
you know, and seeing his style.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
It was so different.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I see a lot of the elements in you because
you had that classic kind of like look and sound.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Whatever. Do you ever go back to watch.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Any of the old stuff from older guys, to not
even just wrestling, older announcers, just to kind of borrow.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
You know, if I see some well, listen, the funny
thing is the what was it the last pay per
view I did with Peter Rosenberg. We did the kickoff
show to not Money in the Bank. I think Extreme
Rules was the last one, right, Extreme Rules before summerslamt
and I literally opened the show as the camera's pushing in,
I'm like, you know, in the words of mean Gene Oakland,
(29:34):
all right, ladies and gentlemen, come on in. Yes, yeah,
and I'll just and a lot of folks, a lot
of folks have written me, especially when I first started,
they said that I reminded them of Mean Gene, probably
because I probably acted just like him, and I'm just
so used to doing it now, you know, all right,
ladies and gentlemen, you know, but he was Listen, the
(29:54):
great thing about him back when is that he was
still the announcers the interview is were part of the
shtick back then and part of the show. And he
was as big a part of of of any segment
as anybody. And he you know, he made half of
those segments. And listen, he turned the macho man and
Haul Cogan interviews into something special, whereas today it would
(30:18):
have just been you know, my guest at this time,
come on in, and the and the and the superstar
speaks and then they walk away. Back then, it was
just he was such a part of of the shtick
that you just mean, Gene was a character, and so
you know, like Bobby the Brain and Jesse Ventura when
those guys were announcing, and Gorilla Monsoon, the announcers were
(30:39):
all characters of the show and it was just all
part of the one group, you know what I mean.
But it's just I love it. I love the whole thing.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
We just did a thing last week for our Patreon
about bloopers.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Was it last week or two?
Speaker 3 (30:54):
It was two weeks ago.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
And I love when Gene is interviewing and we're a
live pal that is my favorite.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Mean Gene, he says, can we do this again? He's like, oh,
we're a lot.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
You know. This bops be huge every time I watch it.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
But you know what it is, though, I just like
what I love about Scott's approach is that the one
thing that I look at when I watch announcers and
being in broadcasting on such a minor level, it's the
act like you've been there, model, and like you look
like you've been in front of the camera for fifty years.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
You're you know you you're so comfortable and and it's
a lost.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Art but no, but it's a lost art where I
feel like there's a lot of the kind of the
modern day sports announcer is more in the fan approach,
and you got to act like you've been there. Me
and Gene he could have been out drinking half the
guys at the bar because he didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
He was there, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
And that's a big thing that I feel.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
It's lost in broadcasting as a whole, is you gotta
be as big as that guy who's making a hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
That's that's really a lost art, right.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
You can't, right, you never listen as big as these
people are all you never, Oh my god, I'm so
excited to interview you know. It's just hey man, I'm
just as I'm just as big as you are. We're
both here together. Let's have a fun conversation. You're not
going to do anything to throw me off. And it's
just you know, I tell the young kids today, it's
all about practice, practice, practice. You want to look comfortable
(32:19):
in front of that camera. If you're reading a prompter.
You don't want to make it seem like you're reading
a prompter. You have that's an art in itself. And
a mirror yeah, right, right, practice in the mirror, practice
with the radio. And it's one of those things where
you know, to me, it's almost like I've never been
big on on drugs, even college or whatever. But to me,
(32:40):
when I'm on television, that's like my.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
High ye.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
When you're doing a live show. When you're doing a
live show where you're sitting out there at a WWE
on the side of the ring, whatever it is, you're
not thinking of the bills you have to pay or
any troubles in your life, it all goes away that
time being and it's just you know, it's it's great.
But yeah, practice practice, practice gets you comfortable in front
of the camera.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Amazing, and it gets you to Carnegie Hall too, So
that's there.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
You go.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
Well, Scott, as I said, delightful. I enjoyed our time
together here. I am going to follow you as soon
as we are done everything because you're charming and I
like you.

the show we've been doing every night. It's this great
fun stuff on that show. And again we started it
to help people through quarantine, something fun, non newsy to
get them through the night. Turned into almost a full
(33:54):
time thing for me now. But yeah, it's it's a
lot of fun and you could if you just search
me on on Facebook. I got a few pages and
if you if you go look Francine, you'll see all
the clips that I have up from even doing sports

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (34:19):

not like to watch sports.

Speaker 4 (00:40):
WWF tie or excuse me, w W E get to
about allegiances as we welcome in the one and only,
the Great Scott Stanford here today.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Where is he?
Speaker 5 (00:52):
There?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
He is?
Speaker 5 (00:53):
Guys, what's happening? What's up?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Scott visible?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
For a second, I would.
Speaker 5 (00:58):
Tell you, guys, changing my camera for.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
There you go?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Look at you?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
What's that accent?
Speaker 5 (01:05):
I live in the New York area New York.
Speaker 6 (01:10):
Everybody says that I have a New York accent, but
I'm originally from Philadelphia, and so I feel like my
accent is way different from your New York.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well here's here's the thing. When I am on the air,
I will change my voice to sound a little more
non New York.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I like it. Don't you change for anyone, Scott?
Speaker 5 (01:32):
You listen. I'm not going to be asked you guys.
I'm here for one reason and one reason only. I
came to play America's favorite game show, porn Star or
Baseball Player.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Did you love it? You love that one? Scott?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Well, I'm so thrilled that you're here because I always
have to just play with Chad and you know it's
all right.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
But I don't think you can handle it though I
don't know it's uh throw you for a loop?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Are we gonna play against each other?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I'm gonna how about it?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Before we get rolling? How about we do a little
rapid fire? How about that?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
May I say one thing?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
I feel like I'm at a disadvantage because I feel
like Scott would know more about baseball players than I do.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
I also know more about porn stars than you do
as well.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
That's another thing because I haven't watched porn in years,
so I might be a little rusty.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Sure I swear listen.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Since I've had my children, my whole life has changed.
I don't have time for porn anymore. I just want
to sleep, and I don't even get to sleep anymore.
So I'll you know, no porn for me, but I'll
do my best, all right?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Who would like to go first? We'll get it.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Let you know what.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
We let our guest go first? Yes, that would be
that would be fitting.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Now, I don't have all of the great uh little
uh descriptions for this because we're going rapid fire.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
All right, But Scott, I'm gonna let you go first
baseball player or porn star?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Go ahead?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Richard Cheese?
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Oh you mean Dick Cheese as he goes, friends call him. Uh,
let's see Richard Cheese. That's a good one. I'm gonna go.
Didn't he star? And white men? Can't hump? Richard Cheese?
Or no, my god.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
If you know titles, I am going to fat.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
So your final answer would be porn star.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go baseball player.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You are incorrect. Oh Cheese is a porn star?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
He wasn't can't hump?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
He probably was? Did he win an Aviana Award?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I don't have the information available at.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I don't want you to think I'm a degenerate. The
only reason I know these names is because one one
WrestleMania back in New York, I was part of Dolls
Ziggler's comedy night, and I roasted Dolph a little bit,
saying how he looks like the pizza delivery in a
porn movie. And I started throwing out these these titles
(04:04):
and names, and that that's the only reason why I know.
But I'm because I only watch once a day, so
I wouldn't really get to know all of the porn
starf Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
You're you're down to one movie to day.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
No, Francis, you're giving me too much credit. It's it's
one three minute clip a day.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
That's all you need though, right, really.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
With time to spare sometimes.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Oh yeah, all right, Queen of Extreme, you're up much
info for me.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
But okay, all.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Right, here we go.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Now you're a veteran of this game, so I'm going
to try to give you the names that we did
not hear the last time.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
All right, so here we go.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Dick Pole, Dick Pole like p O l E. P
O l E. I think I know this one.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Dick Pole.
Speaker 6 (04:49):
I'm going to say that he is a baseball player.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
You are correct. Look at the Queen of Extreme taking
in an early one nothing lead.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
All right, here we go, All right, Scott, here we
go with yours. This is a good one. How about
Tom Wanks?
Speaker 5 (05:06):
Oh, Tom Wanks, Jesus, these are good. Uh. I think
Tom Wanks is a porno star.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
You are correct. Tom Wanks is a porno star.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Obviously a take off of, the of course, famed Oscar
winning actor Tom Hanks.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
And I believe he may have starred on Saturday Night
Beaver if I'm not correct.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Also ast Tom, Yes, I remember correctly.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yes, well, there you go, all right, clean, here you go.
How about Bruce le Bruce.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
That kind of name is Bruce leb Bruce?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Well, is it a baseball player or porn star? That's
the kind of name.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yes, Bruce le Bruce.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
I think it's stupid sounding, so I think it's a
porn star.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
You are correct, Look at you.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
It sounds very stupid.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Under look under the.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Pressure of the the guests welcomed in, You're you're dominating.

to say.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
A baseball player saying a baseball player, Yeah, Flash Brown
is a pornographic.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Flash Brown.
Speaker 6 (06:50):
I just thought Flash like it would be like a
like a nickname for a baseball guy.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
Now, I know you guys are using we're on stream
yard right now. Right when I use stream yard, I
always knew the boxes pushed back a little bit. You

That I like?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
The pushed up it's all about to push up, all right, Sorry,
don't try to distract me there as Lance Thruster is
your next name.

Ryan Driller is indeed a porn star. Although he could
have been a middle reliever somewhere. I'm sure at some
point that was really good. But you as you stipped
your games up with the compared to the last showing Francine,
I will say that was.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I read in the newspaper that you didn't know Rusty

I read that we made the sheets.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I didn't know a lot of things last time.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I'm trying to like listen to the last name and
like put it into a scenario, and sometimes it works,

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Scott. Let's let's let's get her mind own of the dutter.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
And right, that's true. I forgot why I was here exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Let's put you over a little bit. Seven time Emmy winner.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Really that you're gonna bring talk, Well you mean you
mean this?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
He hasn't Scott? Do you have seven of those in
your house. Oh my god, can you juggle with them?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
That's why he wanted the wide shot. That's why he
wanted the wide shot.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
You wanted a wide shot?
Speaker 6 (11:14):
If you Oh my goodness, Yeah, that's impressive.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Now are you a married man, Scott?
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Unfortunately? Yes, friend.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
I was gonna say, do you use them as lever?
Do you use them as leverage with your wife to
get action?
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Because well, listen, every time I walk into my bedroom,
I say, hey, baby, you ever sleep with a seventh
time Emmy winner? And she goes no, he says no,
and I'm still not.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Oh well, she knows what's going on? Hell, how do
we win seven Emmys in a lifetime?
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I think back when we had our kids. I only
had four at the time, so that was probably the
last time. No, you know what I Listen, I've been
a sports and news anchor here in New York, yes,
for since about two thousand and three, okay, and you
know every year they have the Emmy Awards and I've
I've won seven. I've won one for the morning show
(12:06):
that I used to do with my partner Suki who
we have our show at night now, and I won
six others for on cap the be the best sports
anchor in New York on camera perform.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I love that that. Well, you're very charismatic. I could.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
I could just tell by the little conversation we had
that's that's impressive.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
And I've I've never won a Slammy Award though in
my life. That's something that's never happened.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
Well, I think in Emmy Trump's Slammy. In my opinion,
you're you're better off with the Emmy. How did you
get involved in in the sports world so to speak?
Now you started doing the commentating for the news and.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Right right, no, I I basically everything kind of felt,
you know, you have you have to. We had this
conversation of the day on our show with Kevin you
Banks used to be the Tonight Show director musical director, right,
you know, it's you could have all the talent in
the world, but just like WWE, it's always good to
have a little luck to get yourself in a position
to you know, show off those talents. Uh. And I
(13:10):
just happened to, you know, I had a friend call
me about doing sports one day and I ended up
doing sports on the radio here in New York, which
led to me doing sports on TV for the Fox station,
uh and the UPN nine station, which is how I
kind of got into WWE. And then just you know,
when when you're in broadcasting, you constantly move from you know,
you move up, you move up, you move up till
(13:31):
till you get to a certain level.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
And I've been on a bunch of different stations here
in New York, you know, as a sports reporter, a
sports anchor, and it's just once, you know, once, once
you get on the air, it's always easier to get
a job somewhere else while you're on the air, you know,
because it's in this business with with ww as well,
you got to you gotta be on to stay relevant,
(13:54):
right and once you're out of sight, out of mind. Uh,
there's so many things going on right now. If you
don't stay present, people will just kind of forget about you.
So you know, I kind of slowly moved up here here,
a little more money here, a little better position here.
Speaker 6 (14:09):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
And that's really how it worked out. And I just
did this. I always wanted to be a game show
host or me and gene Oakerland love it.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Okay, So the.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Sports, the whole sports thing just kind of fell into
my lap. People always oh, man, you must be watching
sports all day long, and you know the short answer
is no, you're watching watching porn all day in between WWE.
So it's listen.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
You know.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
I have a little time for sports. I watched the
highlights like everybody else, and then I report on it.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
My favorite is Geene Rayburn from me.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
I love Geene Raybn.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
I love him and his long microphone, long mic good
enough and Charles and Riley.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That show is like the best. I'd agree with you
on game shows. I would love to be a game
show host.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
The best beverage since I saw Bob, Bob Barker always
hung around with beautiful women, Dianne Parkinson and all those
jan right they were had an affair. I got to
be this guy. Oh yeah, I think Bob Bob slept
with all of them.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Well, I know Dianne Parkinson or whatever her name is,
that she admitted that she had an affair.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
With mister Barker.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
So how do you go from you know, you mentioned
a little bit you started on the sports How do
you go from there to getting a job with WWF
at the time or ww A. Did they contact you
or were you trying to get into the company.
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Well, here's the funny thing. I was the sports actor
Fox and UPN. We're together here in New York, Okay,
So I was the sports guy at both stations SmackDown
about eleven years ago. Because I've been here for eleven
years now, SmackDown Friday night SmackDown came to the UPN network,
right if you recall. And once it came to the
(15:55):
UPN network, you know, whenever something starts off, you make
a big deal about it. So they wanted a guy,
and I'm in the New York area closest to WWE.
They wanted a guy who can go out and do
feature pieces for all the news programs that would come
on at ten o'clock after SmackDown. Smackdowns on from eight
(16:16):
to ten on Friday nights. Ten o'clock to eleven o'clock
was all the local UPN newscast that would come on
in all the markets, right, So they wanted it. So
how do you keep that? How do you keep that
audience that's watching Friday night SmackDown? You put a little
t's into the show coming up on the UPN nine
News at ten, you know, hul Cogan Caught with his
pants down in Florida, you know, or the Bella Twins
(16:39):
or something. So I was the guy who worked with
WWE on all those feature pieces. So I would go So,
let's say WWE was at Madison Square Garden. I would
go to the garden. We would set up like ten
interviews the big show and all the you know, seeing
all those guys CM Punk at the time. They would
(17:00):
come into a room with me and I would literally
sit and do like a five minute interview with each superstar. Okay,
so now you have five pieces in the can for
the next five weeks of shows. You would put together
a piece with b roll and video and this and that, so,
you know, coming up after after SmackDown on the upn
nine news. You know CM Punk's favorite, you know, Hobby
(17:22):
blah blah blah, we'll have it coming up after the
you know. So it was kind of a way to
keep that SmackDown audience on Friday nights, to stick with
the news coming up after smack because it's a totally
different demographic of course, right for folks who are going
to watch the news. So they wanted to try and
hook the people who are wrestling fans So anyway, long
story short, I was the guy working with WWE to
(17:45):
do all these pieces, so it was almost like I
worked for them already. I had all these I had
all these videos and me interviewing everybody and doing pieces
at WrestleMania and this and that and this and that.
So when the time came, I got a call from
the PR guy said, hey, we're looking for a new
studio host. Vince Saw. They narrowed it down from three
(18:07):
hundred tapes. Vince narrowed it down to three. He hated
the three that we showed him. Put together a quick
and we'll show it to Vince. They showed my demo
to Vince. He said, get this guy up, get this
guy up here, and that was that. I went up.
I auditioned with Joey Styles. I remember I love.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Joe How can I forget?
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Yeah? Yeah. He took me through a little audition process.
We called a few matches together and did a few things,
and I did a couple of pretend interviews, and uh,
here I am eleven years later. I basically you know,
I'm still still going strong. People. It's funny because once
in a while on Twitter I'll s when I do
a kickoff show for a pay per view. People are like,
(18:49):
I didn't even know this guy was still at the company.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
Right, I'm like, OK, I appreciate that. But yeah, So
it's it's been eleven years and in this pandemic, I've
been doing all the kickoff pay per view pre shows
as well, because everything's done right in Stanford, Connecticut, right
and next Saturday, I'm doing the NXT kickoff show with
Sam Roberts again, and you know, we got Summer Slam
(19:16):
coming up, and I've been doing this week in WWE
forever and it's just been great. I love it. I
still love it. Every day is like the first day
for me.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
See, And that's what you mean.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
You need to love what you're doing or else you're
going to be miserable. We say that all the time. Yeah,
and it's interesting because I always say, you never know
who's watching always, you know what I mean? So you
here you are, you're on a local network news and
then they see you and then you get this opportunity
to do their show as well.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
So yeah, you're double dippin' you're here.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
There, And you know what's funny, I've worked at NBC
four here in New York. I was the news anchor
it Picks eleven here in New York, the morning show
host WWE never I never missed a day. It never
interfered with anything I was doing. Uh. There were times
where I was doing a Monday night Raw pre show
and a Tuesday night SmackDown pre show with Booker and
(20:12):
Corey and Otunga. I would do my five and six
o'clock newscast. I jump on the train at Grand Central
up to Connecticut for a seven o'clock show. Seven to
eight o'clock we would do, Yeah, we would do the
pre show, hang out after, have a little dinner. I
jump into a car, they take me back down for
the ten o'clock news. So my Mondays and Tuesdays were
(20:35):
pretty hectic. But it's it's none of it's like working
for me exactly. It's so much fun. I love doing it.
Nothing is like work for me.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Were you a wrestling fan growing up?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I was?
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I was. I was.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
I used to walk around the house pretending I was mean.
Gene Yeah a child.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
As a child, so you didn't want to be a wrestler.
You wanted to be mean, Gene okerl.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
I always wanted to be mean, Gene. I always loved
Vince when he was the you know, the the commentator
on the side of the ring, back when I was
watching on the Spanish stations, when I was a cad
and when my brother, who's still a cameraman to this day,
he got his first like camquarder back in the day,
those giant things they used to sell. When he got
his first camp corder, the first thing we did was
(21:19):
put me in front of like one of those old
wrestling advertisement posters, you know, Pedro Morales and Brunos San Martina. Yeah,
And I was literally all right, ladies and gentlemen, this
Monday night haul Cogan. Oh forget it, I am. And
then when I got to meet me and Jean and
work with him, it was, you know, it was just
a thrill for me.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
That's adorable.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
You should have taken that footage if you still had it,
and I have it on your highlight reel.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Oh, I love that. I want to see that. That's
so cute.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
I have it if I actually I have it on
my phone. I wish I would. I could have emailed
it to you could have played it.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Follow you after on Twitter.
Speaker 6 (21:57):
Yeah, I want to keep I want to I like
to follow the guests and see what I love, like something.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I love Justin Roberts, who.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
I'm sure you know, Oh, sure, good friend.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, he's a he's a great guy. I love him
to death.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
And I love how he always puts up like his
pictures when he's a kid with and then and then
you see him in the ring.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
Yeah, my dad used to take us here in New
York to the Westchester County Center.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, I think I've worked there.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
You probably have always one of the stops. It's a little, tiny,
small little venue in Western I'm sure when I was
a little kid, we used to see like Andre the
Giant and Ivan Putsky would be there, and I just
happened to have this.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Look at.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
There, that's Andre. I don't know who's on. I could
be doctor Dave Schultz. I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I can't tell, but it looks like they just weren't
tights because Schultz would have had the single.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
That's amazing.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
There's Andre. That was at the Chester County Center, and
I always remember had the shirt that said Polish Power
for Ivan Putski and I love it. We were big fans.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
I love that venue. That's always been one of my favorites.
I saw shows there many times. It's a that's a
it's an interesting one because they run conventions there.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I think the Westchester Knicks play there. It's like it
can do it, can do it all.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we ran there. The name is
ringing a bell.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
It's It's sad. I don't remember much these days. I
think because I hit my head so many times.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
My memory is gone.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
When were you? When were you there? Did I ever
see you backstage?
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Or because I worked for w w E in two thousand,
I did two thousand and five The One Light Stand
Pay for View, and then in two thousand and six
I had signed a contract for the New East. The
Fake e c W is what I call.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It, fake whatever you want.
Speaker 6 (23:50):
It didn't live up to expectations, but I was there
for about six months and then I got the good
old we have nothing for you, got cha?
Speaker 5 (24:00):
You know I started. I started in nine.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Yeah, I was gone.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
Yeah, okay, I was already pregnant and having my first shot.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Listen, and now in the pandemic, right, we're all shooting
in our homes. I'm gonna take my camera. Here's here's
my WWE set.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Right over here. O, god, that's awesome.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
I got my posters, so I sit in front of those, okay,
and you got a nice little set there, and I
do all my shows from there. So it's uh, it's
great when it's nice at obviously, I'll do it like
in my backyard so it opens up. You see some trees.
But back in in March, when we first started doing
the you know, the pandemic hit and the weather wasn't nice,
(24:44):
I stole a few posters from the from headquarters, got
myself a nice little set.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Look that's gonna come.
Speaker 6 (24:51):
Out of your paycheck into the warehouse.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
That's funny. Do you have a favorite interview.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Of anything? Oh? Boy, god, you know what. Someone asked
me this the other day. And I've done so many.
I mean, I've met so many celebrities, so many athletes.
Even the show that we've been doing, uh, the Suki
and Scott Show, which is on Facebook Live every night.
You know, it's kind of like the Tonight Show. We
(25:22):
have celebrities and entertainers. So we'll have a celebrity uh.
You know, we had Taylor Dane on the other night. Lisa, Lisa,
we're singing, we're dancing, you know, George Lopez and god,
you know, doing the morning show in New York, You'd
be on the set doing a story and in the
commercial break a celebrity would just come walking in, you know,
(25:46):
like Cheryl Ladd from Charlie's Angels, and I'm like, oh
my god, I used to have your poster on my wall.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Awesome.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
Yeah, there's too many of them. I can't even can't
even you know, say, oh, I have a favorite that
I've done. There are favorite people, like in sports that
I loved working with right right athletes who were always
you know, a little nicer than others. But it's just
a god, I've done so many I don't even I
couldn't even come up with a name for you.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Let's reverse it. And you don't have to answer this
because I never answer it.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Do you have anyone that you despised that was so
hard to interview that they just didn't want to be there?
Speaker 5 (26:24):
Not hard to interview? Uh, there are some people that
I and I don't despise a lot of people. There
are some I do despise, mostly sports stars because you know,
I had a chance to be in the locker rooms
with everybody for a long time, right and people always
used to say to me, Oh, that must be so cool.
You're in the Yankee locker room with Jeter and a
Rod and all these gain and the Giants and Strahan
(26:47):
and all these And I said, you know what it
to be. That's at the start, it was very cool.
Right now in my career, it's how quick can I
get in and how quick can I get out?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
I want to get out of here.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
I want to get out. But yes, there are I
there are a couple of people who I just think
are kind of like dbs, if you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
Okay, yeah, And you don't have to name names, you know,
at this point in the game, like I don't heal
anyone because why bother?
Speaker 5 (27:15):
Right, it doesn't right, it doesn't matter. Even even when
I see them like on Twitter, I'm like, oh, you
just you just want to you just want to clock
them in the head, you know, right. And the thing is,
you know, and I've seen it firsthand. You know, they're athletes,
not really celebrities, but athletes. These guys make so much
money and they are they're in a world that we
(27:37):
will never know unless you win the lottery, you'll never
know what it's like to be an athlete and pampered
and not paying for anything and just treated like you
are absolute royalty and you and you're still a putts,
you know what I mean. You still act like the
weight of the world is on your shoulders with all
the things going on around you in the world and
(27:58):
people who are suffering, and you got a life of
a king and you're still you're still a dB. You
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
And I look it up if you don't know what
that means.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Yeah, yeah, just initials, just initial understood.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
Well, I think you're delightful. I'm so happy to meet you.
There's so many people in this business I've never met,
so anytime we get like somebody I haven't met before
and they're nice, pop because because you know, some people
can be dbs as well.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
That's what I'm saying is there's no reason not to
be nice. It's like, what's the what's the point?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Right?
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Well, some people are just miserable in life and they're
being change. But you're delightful and and I wish you
the best of luck.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
Do you have any questions?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
No, I mean I talked to Scout a couple of
months ago, right after me and Jean passed away and
he kind of told, uh, you know, the whole story
about like kind of what he was saying. But you know,
I'll throw one at you, just you know, from the
kind of the studying factor when talking to me and Gene,
you know, and seeing his style.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
It was so different.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I see a lot of the elements in you because
you had that classic kind of like look and sound.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Whatever. Do you ever go back to watch.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Any of the old stuff from older guys, to not
even just wrestling, older announcers, just to kind of borrow.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
You know, if I see some well, listen, the funny
thing is the what was it the last pay per
view I did with Peter Rosenberg. We did the kickoff
show to not Money in the Bank. I think Extreme
Rules was the last one, right, Extreme Rules before summerslamt
and I literally opened the show as the camera's pushing in,
I'm like, you know, in the words of mean Gene Oakland,
(29:34):
all right, ladies and gentlemen, come on in. Yes, yeah,
and I'll just and a lot of folks, a lot
of folks have written me, especially when I first started,
they said that I reminded them of Mean Gene, probably
because I probably acted just like him, and I'm just
so used to doing it now, you know, all right,
ladies and gentlemen, you know, but he was Listen, the
(29:54):
great thing about him back when is that he was
still the announcers the interview is were part of the
shtick back then and part of the show. And he
was as big a part of of of any segment
as anybody. And he you know, he made half of
those segments. And listen, he turned the macho man and
Haul Cogan interviews into something special, whereas today it would
(30:18):
have just been you know, my guest at this time,
come on in, and the and the and the superstar
speaks and then they walk away. Back then, it was
just he was such a part of of the shtick
that you just mean, Gene was a character, and so
you know, like Bobby the Brain and Jesse Ventura when
those guys were announcing, and Gorilla Monsoon, the announcers were
(30:39):
all characters of the show and it was just all
part of the one group, you know what I mean.
But it's just I love it. I love the whole thing.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
We just did a thing last week for our Patreon
about bloopers.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Was it last week or two?
Speaker 3 (30:54):
It was two weeks ago.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
And I love when Gene is interviewing and we're a
live pal that is my favorite.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Mean Gene, he says, can we do this again? He's like, oh,
we're a lot.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
You know. This bops be huge every time I watch it.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
But you know what it is, though, I just like
what I love about Scott's approach is that the one
thing that I look at when I watch announcers and
being in broadcasting on such a minor level, it's the
act like you've been there, model, and like you look
like you've been in front of the camera for fifty years.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
You're you know you you're so comfortable and and it's
a lost.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Art but no, but it's a lost art where I
feel like there's a lot of the kind of the
modern day sports announcer is more in the fan approach,
and you got to act like you've been there. Me
and Gene he could have been out drinking half the
guys at the bar because he didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
He was there, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
And that's a big thing that I feel.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
It's lost in broadcasting as a whole, is you gotta
be as big as that guy who's making a hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
That's that's really a lost art, right.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
You can't, right, you never listen as big as these
people are all you never, Oh my god, I'm so
excited to interview you know. It's just hey man, I'm
just as I'm just as big as you are. We're
both here together. Let's have a fun conversation. You're not
going to do anything to throw me off. And it's
just you know, I tell the young kids today, it's
all about practice, practice, practice. You want to look comfortable
(32:19):
in front of that camera. If you're reading a prompter.
You don't want to make it seem like you're reading
a prompter. You have that's an art in itself. And
a mirror yeah, right, right, practice in the mirror, practice
with the radio. And it's one of those things where
you know, to me, it's almost like I've never been
big on on drugs, even college or whatever. But to me,
(32:40):
when I'm on television, that's like my.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
High ye.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
When you're doing a live show. When you're doing a
live show where you're sitting out there at a WWE
on the side of the ring, whatever it is, you're
not thinking of the bills you have to pay or
any troubles in your life, it all goes away that
time being and it's just you know, it's it's great.
But yeah, practice practice, practice gets you comfortable in front
of the camera.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Amazing, and it gets you to Carnegie Hall too, So
that's there.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
You go.
Speaker 6 (33:12):

together here. I am going to follow you as soon
