curtain back and just hey, everybody, come on in.
Speaker 3 (02:50):

Speaker 3 (03:19):

I wrestled? I hope, so I definitely saw him, unless
I wrestled him with my eyes closed.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Well you lost, obviously.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
There's a friend of mine, A friend of mine sent me.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
So it's my wife's best friend, actually her husband.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Well, I mean he's my friend. We're friends.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Like that's how we met each other, was our wives,
but like we're we are now friends. I mean, I
have a have a relationship with the man outside of
his wife and my wife were were able to like,
you know, speak without our wives present. I continue anyway,
(04:09):
he sent me this clip. I don't know if it
was in Russia or what it was, but it was
a blindfolded boxing battle Royal.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So it's like twenty guys in a.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Ring with boxing gloves on and they're blindfolded and they're
just swinging at.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Each other haymakers. I don't know if genius is the word.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
You wouldn't see that, No, I see that.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Yeah, I probably would.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
Dudes in a ring just throwing absolute haymakers at each
other blindfolded.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly what.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yeah, it's well, I mean, I don't know if you
have get thrown over the top. I'm assuming if you
got knock the fuck out, hey, drive you out of
the ring.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Somebody, Well Russians.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I say Russians because that was the Pittsburgh then like
group Group MMA.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Thing that I saw too one time. I was like, God,
damn it, they're crazy.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
But I feel like I feel like twenty dudes in
a ring wearing a blindfold, you got a pretty good
chance of hitting another guy. Like twenty dudes in a ring.
Is there's a lot of guys in the ring that
just be swinging around.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Well, i mean I'm sure that there were I'm sure
nobody that put this thing together were like, well, let's
put like four guys in there, so that there's you know,
they got to really take a while to actually connect
with each other.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I'm sure they were probably coming.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Down guys out.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
They were coming down from like a hundred.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Let's put one hundred in there, and they probably couldn't
find a hundred. They could only find twenty that were
willing to do it.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
Oh, I think if they were, if they were in Russia,
I'm sure they find other guys to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
They are strange. Read those Russians, weird group.
Speaker 9 (06:09):
If you too, I listen, I don't know if you
too are qualified to speak so authoritatively about Russian people.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
I'm Polish.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, okay, so neither one of you are Russian, nor
do either of you have Russian heritage or Russian wives.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
You don't know that.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Cruche, I mean without absolute question.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
No, You're right, I don't, but I would think that
I would be aware in some degree.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Anyway. What what is this podcast about? What? Well?
Speaker 5 (07:00):
You were telling us.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
About what you did this weekend, and then Frank interrupted that, yeah,
I think you.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
Start telling some story about your friend, alleged friend who
knows Russian boxing or.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Remember to be thought we were talking about I thought
we were.
Speaker 8 (07:16):
Talking about Joe Henry.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
I thought so too.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
Hey, did you guys know he's from Scotland. No, yes, Yeah,
he's from Scotland. I knew he was, Like, I just
thought he was English.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
He's not. He's Scottish.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I think because I know he's from I know he
lives in Scotland. So I would assume.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
There you go something again, they assumptions, assumptions.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Yeah, assuming I don't have a Russian wife.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I think that's a fair assumptions.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Actually pretty fucking accurate. I don't think that's an assumption.
Speaker 8 (07:54):
Right before we.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Got there first off, So you don't have a wife, correct, Yeah,
so she can't be Russian if she doesn't exist.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
The terror is not Russian, but she exists.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Right, but are you married?
Speaker 5 (08:13):
No?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
No, right, so to terror.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
I got a Russian way show that.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
We'll slow her down. Shut up, frank.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
So before we came out, we were talking about the
news of the PC moving to Vegas.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Wait is this before or after you got done eating?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
During?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
I think it was during Yeah, he was still wrapping up.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, so rumor has it the PC is moving to.
Speaker 7 (08:48):
Vegas now in last Vegas, Las Vethas. Now, in recent years,
Florida has become a hotbed of independent in wrestling.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Will that affect anything going forward?
Speaker 8 (09:02):
No, okay, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
I mean, Tampa back in the day was the like
mecca for all wrestlers to live for numerous reasons, numerous
alleged reasons.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
One of which that I had always.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Heard when I started breaking into the business was that
the airport is really easy.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And you know, great whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Well, I went to the Tampa airport, went through it recently,
and I don't know, it's like any other airport, So
who knows.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
But then I know Tampa was.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
That was where Florida's Championship Wrestling, you know, Dusty's version
of it was back in the day.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
But then even the recursor two n XT was in Tampa. Yeah,
so I think the you know, then when it came to.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
Orlando, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
I mean, honestly, it's a good question. That is a
very good question. It'll be interesting to see what comes
of it, what happens. I mean, you have to think
just based on numbers alone, not everybody who is employed
by the PC at this point in Orlando is going
to move to Las Vegas. So what will come of
(10:40):
what will become of all of the bells and whistles
and specific departments and whatnot that that run out of
that out of the PC that wouldn't necessarily go to Vegas.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
We'll see.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
How would you describe the physical appearance of the PC
from I've never been through it?
Speaker 5 (11:03):
You have right?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Uh? Do you remember not the mug but the pit?
M Yeah, it was a lot like.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
The locker room, the one that Tomaso had his office
and always smelled a little bit like piss.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Yeah. Yeah, that's what the PC was.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Like.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
I feel like it should be better than that.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
I mean, they tried to make it better than that,
but it ended up a lot like the pit and
it smelled like pissh Yeah, all right, it's where dreams
go to die boys this podcast.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Yay. No, the PC, I don't know like where specifically, Like, so.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
The.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Main room had I want to say, five.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Rings, and this is back when I first started working there,
maybe three rings, I don't know, it was three or five.
But then everything changed, like through COVID and stuff, because
(12:36):
we stopped doing tapings at full sale, and so that's
when the PC took you know, another major overhaul. And
then in recent years, at least the last time I
had gone back.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
There to do.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Some coaching, they had.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Because it's in like a warehouse district, so they had
commandeered or bought a few of the warehouse space, a
few different buildings in that area, that neighborhood, and they
those had rings in them as well, and some of
(13:25):
them were like when we did the War Games, there
were two rings put into a couple of those buildings
that they must have owned at that time too, and
we just walked a little bit off site and we
were able to, you know, have two rings enclosed in
the cages, so we were able to, you know, just
(13:48):
just work things out in there if we needed to.
Those are now part of the PC.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
And I don't know because a lot.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Of stuff change so much after COVID and when that
became Like what you see now for NXT is the
performance center that's inside the building. Oh shoot, yeah, like
that that's where NXT is taped now in the performance center,
(14:19):
and they don't that that's where the rings, the practice
rings used to be.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That the five.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Rings that I was talking about earlier when I first
got to NXT, when it was NXT Black and Gold.
That was the you know, the main training area. And
then there's a fully functional gym like you would expect
to see a like a you know, like a college
or university with a football team. It's like that, but
(14:51):
maybe a little bit smaller because they don't.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Need now they have a lot of.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
A lot of people, a lot of wrestlers are there,
but it's not as big as like the like a
college football team would need for their athletes.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
And then there was there was a sports medicine room
you know where you would go and that reminded me.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Of a college locker room. Also like had pet tables
and cold ice tubs and yeah, I mean all this
stuff so.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Everything you needed as a performer was right on site.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
One.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
And then they had a room for like green screen things,
you know, so if they had a v stuff that
had a different wing of the building. And again this
is going back a couple of years too, like to
when I was actually working there.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
So I'm sure.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
There's more now, you know, because they were never one
to like not spend money, so I'm sure it's it's
quite a bit more equipped now, but that building.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Is going to be up for sale coming up, So
there's the.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
House of Champions have a similar model, just obviously lower.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Scale though.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
House the Champions want like they want to have a
similar like.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
I think there's a lot of things from.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
The PC that, you know, like any wrestling school would
be smart to kind of mimic. They are unique in
a couple of different ways. One before we get into.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
What makes them unique.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
But the one thing that they are waiting on right
now is a second ring. So there's not a lot
of wrestling schools that have two rings. They're gonna have
a second upcoming soon. And then they.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
They and it's their story to tell, so I won't
tell it.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
But Nick and Renee they're married and they own the
House Champions. They were looking for a building and they
looked at this This particular building was the first one
they looked at and it was once batting cages, so
it had a fully AstroTurf field in it, and they
(17:38):
actually had like a fully functional gym like from dumbbells,
astro turf field, kettlebells, they had, they just they had everything,
squad racks, they they they hit the jackpot with the
(17:59):
building they got and I guess, again, it's their story,
so I might have the details wrong, but like, I'm
pretty sure they bought all the equipment with the place,
and they they have as far as Orlando is concerned,
they have one of the better gyms that I've been
to in the state of Florida. Is it similar to
(18:20):
like how the Dark Arts in Tampa, like Malachi Black has,
you know, he buys top end equipment and he's got
like a really like a beautiful facility in like the
(18:41):
garage off his house. It's crazy, but they're building. They're
building another building because they're growing as well.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
So yeah, I mean, and this brings me back, No,
go ahead, no.
Speaker 7 (18:57):
Let's say so it may be a benefit that the
PC is leaving town because then you have two premier
schools in the area.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Now, I don't know, maybe, I mean, we'll see how
this affects everything. It's something I thought about today, was,
you know, when I heard the news, and I thought, like,
I don't know, I'm not really sure how that will
affect because Orlando's become you know, like a hotbed and
(19:32):
even bigger than that just Florida in general. But I
feel like Florida has always been. And I don't know,
if you know the number one facility in the industry
leaving town or leaving state, I don't know. We'll see
what that does.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
I mean, hell, maybe Tony Kahan decides to move shop
to Orlando and buy that building. I mean, he's got
enough money to do it.
Speaker 7 (20:04):
I think you hit on something though, because they're running
shows at that Daily's place during COVID. Yeah, and I
think it kind of benefit them from a financial standpoint,
because when you're trying to run these venues, run the
country and you're only drawing, say five thousand people. We'll
say the MVP arena holds what thirteen to sixty thousand,
(20:28):
you only.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
Put give or take twelve to thirteen Ye all.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Right, So, and you're only putting five thousand gracefully in
that building, you're losing losing money. So if you keep
your product at Daily's Place or the PC or someplace
where it looks like it's full, you're saving on travel
costs to grant it. You're not making the house shows
do all that stuff. But at some point you got
to think about the financial piece.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Of the business.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Then you could run your big shows, big shows in
a Big Arena.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah, I mean I'm not qualified.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
To really have an opinion on it, you know, because
my opinion would not be educated in any way really
when it comes to that. I know that they say
that aw's attendance is down. I don't think they had
much trouble with Wembley Stadium.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
At least.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Yeah. I mean, the European fans.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Are known for coming out in droves, and some of
that can be attributed to the fact that, like they
don't it's not as readily available to them. But fifty thousand, regardless,
like people can say whatever they want, fifty thousand, it's
fifty thousand damn people to come and see wrestling. And
(21:52):
I was thinking about this yesterday, like there's a lot
of derogatory stuff that goes around about AW.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
But and there's a lot of people that will.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
Knock the brand, et cetera, et cetera, the booking, whatever,
whatever can be knocked will be knocked.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
That's just wrestling in general. But to think.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
When I went to nxt SO twenty seventeen eighteen, when
we were there, to think that at that time there
was no real alternative to WWE. There was WWE, and
then there was like kind of TNA and there's no
(22:42):
knock on TNA, like they're doing incredible things now. But
the fact that aew is even talked about in the
same sentence as like.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That wasn't a thing then. That was still like some
crazy idea. And I remember a specific because Kyle.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
And myself and Adam we were going to NXT and
Roddy was there, and then there were the guys that
we were leaving, like the Tavens and the Bennetts and
the matt and Nick Jackson and Marty Skirrell at the
time was doing a lot of stuff with them in
New Japan and uh Hangman Page and like these guys
(23:28):
Cody Rhodes at the time, you know they were and
this aw thing was coming together and it was like, well,
what but what's it going to be?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
And blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
To think that now, like all these years removed from then,
it's what it is, like, love it or hate it,
it's still it's It's a goddamn amazing story, it really is.
And to think that they just put fifty thousand in
Wembley Stadium again and it's and it's a it's a
(24:00):
a legitimate alternative TOWWWE. If you don't want to watch WWE,
you have another major wrestling company that you can decide
to watch.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That was not the case when we left Bring a
Honor and went to NXT.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
And to your point, like for the people that shit
on AW, it's still in its infantile stages here.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
It's not WWE has been around for how long.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I think like two or three years at least, WWE
at least to at least three years.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
Yeah, yeah, right, So you think about how long they've
been doing it, which apparently hasn't been that long, and
neither is AW and they've grown considerably.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Yeah, I mean against what WWE is doing.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
I think people lose track of that stuff. And I
think that there is some credit that is deserved to
be thrown their way, and that includes Tony Kahan and
everybody else that is there doing what they're doing because
it's you know, it's a huge production and I mean
(25:17):
they're selling tickets, like you know, maybe their attendance is
down a little bit, okay, but.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Maybe a year from now it'll come back up, like
you don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
And just the fact that there's competition is like it
was not thought to be possible at one time, and
that time was not too long ago, because we're talking
about like twenty eighteen.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
It's just crazy, you know, it's just crazy. I don't know,
and no, none of us have seen all out correct
or all in, all out, all out, all in, all out,
So I know, I know Nigel came back, yes, and
(26:09):
god damn it. You want to talk about smile like that,
I was watching the clip that I saw and then
I realized how big the smile was on my face.
I've known Nigel for years now and we've had, you know,
times where we were in more consistent contact than others.
(26:34):
And it's the wrestling business. You come in and out
of it, but there were times that we were you know,
pretty close and talked quite a bit.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
So I know.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Him on a very personal level. And man, to see
him like to see him and especially in the UK,
back in a wrestling ring and you know, physically doing
it was man.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Uh it just I get chills thinking about it.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
And then to see him mixing it up with Kyle,
you know, because Kyle, like Nigel, wasn't wrestling when when
Kyle and I were doing our thing and ring of
honor or not. I don't think Nigel was wrestling when
Kyle even first came in the Ring of Honor, so
I think that was the first time, you know, probably meeting.
I think that was in the part of the Gauntlet
(27:30):
match where if I'm not mistaken, Danielson ends up winning
the world title. But and I don't know if that's
like a one off for Nigel or if Nigel's gonna
gonna try to make a go of it.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
What.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Regardless what it is, it made me smile, and I'm
just happy for the human being that is Nigel McGinnis.
I mean it was awesome and for that alone. I
think I said it before, like about the way that
that Aw and Tony Kahn took care of Kyle, Kyle
and him being such a close friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Like.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
They they in no way can I knock them or
would I even want to knock Tony conor aw at
this point for you, you put Nigel back in the
wrestling ring, Like how can I not applaud that and
then like have your back like that.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That was just awesome.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
The crowd team hot, especially when Danielsen won the belt.
When will Ospray went his magic championship. That's alwaich Taeltale
signed me and crams. It's a long show, but when
the crowd still pops at the end for the outcome,
that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I didn't see much of it. I have seen some clips.
It seems like it was a successful show. Fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I mean, even if the show sucked, you still got
their money. That's you know, it's it's a good show.
I mean, fifty thousand, there's nothing to like fart at.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I wouldn't far at it at all, No, man, I
would not as far as that one.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Yeah, Frank, I think like just when you look.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
At you, you you would think like, yeah, that's a
guy that sits in his own brew sometimes, like he'll
just sit far and just enjoy his own.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Drip, his own drippings.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Disgusting, Yes it is.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Fuck, you're disgusting.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
You disgusted me. Yeah, you make you make me sick
to my stomach.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
That wrap I just had is like right, let's throw it,
just come back up.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Great, all right.
Speaker 7 (29:59):
So, so on a somber nose, we lost one of
the true greats Psycho.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
Sid Yeah, yeah he so.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
I'm basing it on kind of a eulogizing thing that
I saw Dallas Post. I believe Sid had cancer, which
you know is so my aunt had cancer, my cousin
(30:36):
had cancer. In no way did it you know, really
it's not my story to tell again, but I know
that like the treatments would take so much out of them.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
That it's like, you know.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
When you have to treat this thing is so distrust
active that you have to treat it with like a poison.
That's how you treat the condition. And there's a family
member right now of my wife's that is going through
(31:18):
treatment as well for cancer. And just to see the
way it just it the appearance of that person when
they're going through treatments and then the stories you hear
about how little energy they have, and you know, it's
just it's so, you know, it's evil man. Cancer is
(31:43):
something definitely created by the enemy. It's you know, as
a Christian, I you know, it's just evil.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
We're actually one of the bookings Matt has set up.
Matt Matt Hallock has gotten squared away from me. Will
be October fifth, I believe, and it's in Wisconsin. It's
called the Pink Heels Foundation. We're doing a they're doing
(32:24):
a wrestling show that I'm going to wrestle on and
some DDP yoga we're gonna be doing. I'll get the details.
It's it's a ways out. It's October fifth.
Speaker 5 (32:39):
Is it the one in Sheboygan?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Yeah, yeah, Sheboygan, Wisconsin. And I'll get the details. I
should have them now before I even brought anything up.
But it's not like I've been very professional at any
point on this show. So this is just, you know,
(33:02):
go just stack it on top of the pile that's
already there. But maybe next week I'll get the actual
details there. But yeah, we got another. We got a
it's a fundraiser and it's it's uh, you know, I'm
looking forward to it. I was actually talking to the
(33:22):
promoter today a little bit over text, and they're excited
and I'm excited, especially all things considered. And yeah, so
back to Sid, I don't know. I guess the thing
that I'll that stands out to me the most with
(33:43):
Sid was just he just had an unforgettable appearance and
like intensity that as a kid like kind of scared
the ship out of me.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
I remember him as the skyscrapers with him and Danny Spivey. Yeah,
and I'm like, man, these two guys are monsters, and
they they look like they were actually jacking people up.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
They didn't.
Speaker 7 (34:10):
It didn't look like anything was again like I could say,
and the power Bomb looked.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Like he was driving a ma.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Well, I think that's because they were.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
And another thing I remember what I said was when
he broke his leg.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Oh that was the worst. I was actually just talking
about that at work.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
I watched that on e Bomb's World like the infant
stages of the fucking Internet, and I kept watching it
and I almost threw up every time I watched it.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
It was awful.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
So why did you go back more than once?
Speaker 5 (34:43):
Because I was like, oh shit, I gotta watch that again.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Oh my god, I feel like I'm gonna throw up.
Like I just kind of burped and got a little
in the back of my throat. Let me watch that again.
What are you an asshole? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (34:57):
I watched it like ten times in a row.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Good lord, I'm gonna stop telling people we were born
in the same room.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
Okay, Well, I mean it's fine because not too many
people know who I am outside of the area, so
they're probably like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
So that's fine. I'm also BigGAN.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yeah, if you polka, I don't know if anybody. I
don't know if anybody knows you here in Florida.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
My mom lives in Florida. She knows who I am.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
She does.
Speaker 5 (35:29):
She doesn't admit it to many people, but she doesn't
know who I am.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Okay, well my kids don't admit I'm their dad. So
there we go.
Speaker 5 (35:39):
That looks like we got some good ship going for.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Another my my other favorite uh Sid thing too was the.
Speaker 5 (35:52):
The live interview with me and Jean.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
We're live.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
He's like, he goes, let me start it over. He goes,
We're live.
Speaker 8 (36:01):
Yeah, Well I.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Laugh, I laugh.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
But I'm definitely capable of that. I'm definitely capable.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Sure, yep, he was, I think so like for me,
I think, yeah, the skyscrapers were definitely my like introduction
to Sid, and like Sid Vicious was just such a
perfect name. And then you had seen big dudes like
(36:32):
that before, but not big dudes that were jacked the
way he was and like as ripped as he was.
That's what was different about him is that he was
like built like Lex Luger but like Lex Luger on steroids.
(36:53):
On steroids again, you know, he was like an even
bigger Lex. He just he defied he was not supposed
to be. I think some of that too comes from,
like you get used to seeing Andre the Giant or
even Paul White, but to see a guy that's big
(37:15):
like that, who's like proportionate, you know, who doesn't have
like colossal ankles. Let's say, you know, he's got like
whittled down narrow ankles and huge cavs and huge, huge squads.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
And then it's just built like a brick shit house.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Like. I think that's what stuck out to me about Sid.
And then the other thing that I'll never forget. I
always thought that.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
From Mike Tyson's punch Out, I always thought that Soda
Popinski was based on Sid Vicious.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
Really yeah, he always looked to me like Sid Vicious.
He always had that same tight froey like mullet curl.
Huh you're looking up Soda Popinski.
Speaker 8 (38:08):
Yeah, yeah, good polish man.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (38:13):
Yeah, it's a brother.
Speaker 5 (38:14):
He's a friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
And it might have nothing, it might have nothing in
you know, no correlation whatsoever.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
But anyway, anyway, so seeing those two, him and Dan Spivey,
the and the like. The look in both of their
eyes was that they were like gone, like off the reservation.
And you know, I'm not sure you can manufacture that look.
(38:44):
I think so. I don't know you. I can't really see. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Wait, maybe it's not Soda Popinski. It's not Soda Popinski.
It was who was the guy before Tyson? Not Soda Popinski.
It's the guy that you fought before Tyson.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
I swear he was. Oh not Jesse Ventura.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Jesse Barfield.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
No, that's reaction.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
Can you google it.
Speaker 5 (39:22):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 4 (39:24):
He was the guy you fought before Tyson. I could
get to him, but I couldn't get past him. I
think I got past him, but I couldn't get past Tyson.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
So the guy before Tyson was Macho Man.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Yes, Macho Man was his name.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
And I swear to God if you can pull up
a Google image of him, he looks like said Vicious.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
He doesn't look like Randy Savage at all.
Speaker 10 (39:52):
Oh yeah, brother, freak out, freak out, Jesus Christ, talk
about yourselves.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
We should.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
I wish we could get the Jeopardy scene right.
Speaker 6 (40:12):
No, that was the copa cabana, Frank, the one when
you got it?
Speaker 5 (40:28):
All right? So that is macho man from punching.
Speaker 4 (40:31):
Yes, now doesn't that look more like that? Could be
said look at the hair?
Speaker 5 (40:36):
Yeah, yes, this one. Yeah, you were a way off
because I was like, so I don't remember looking like that.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
No, no, macho yes there you go, Yes for sure?
All right.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
So, oddly enough, when I looked up Soda Popinski his
bio came up. It was like thirty five year old Russian.
I'm like, this is really too far in depth for
a video game character.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I mean, now look at what they got. You got
virtual reality games. Now there I saw where was it?
Was it in the airport the other day?
Speaker 4 (41:12):
They have like virtual stores where you go and play
your I don't know what it is. They were trying
to invite me in, and I.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
Was like, no, no, I pedophile, I can't No. I
just made Frank come on, I just don't want I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
Fair good.
Speaker 7 (41:34):
Yeah, I ran are there any gaming systems in the
fish household?
Speaker 3 (41:39):
No?
Speaker 4 (41:40):
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 6 (41:44):
Just just to put a bow on the said thing
with condolences to the family, the grandkids.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Yeah, he just did a Orgos signing.
Speaker 7 (41:54):
Probably three weeks ago, and you would have known that
he was second on because he I've seen pictures of
him online like that.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
That's a wow, It's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (42:02):
Really yeah. Wow.
Speaker 7 (42:07):
Apparently he had the heart issues of what didn't mend
The actual cancer contributed to it, but he had a
heart failure issue.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
Okay, well that you know, being being that large of
a human being comes at a price.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
You know, it's generally there's generally some heart issues for
people that are that big. Thanks are working, you know,
working over time? Andrea where Andre Reid?
Speaker 5 (42:43):
Yes, Andre Dawson. No, okay, good?
Speaker 7 (42:52):
Did you guys wives the clip I sent you guys
of Carrying Across and Jesse Ventura.
Speaker 3 (42:58):
No, I saw it, but I didn't watch it.
Speaker 7 (43:00):
Yeah, so he got the opportunity to do his impression
in front of Jesse.
Speaker 8 (43:05):
Oh it's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Yeah, I'll have to watch it.
Speaker 4 (43:10):
I meant I wanted to watch it earlier, but you
sent it to me and I was somewhere that I
couldn't listen, and then I.
Speaker 3 (43:20):
Forgot that I had it.
Speaker 7 (43:22):
It's cool to see those guys like carry Across meet
the guys they grew up watching.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
It was pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (43:28):
Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Well, I mean I can't say enough positive things about Cross.
Cross is just a I mean, he's a great performer,
and he's a guy that similarly to like, I'll say,
like guys like Joe Henry and guys like mac Hardona
and Cross, like, rather than complain about what they don't have,
(43:55):
they truly have mastered the art of making the most
out of what they do have. And it's just it's inspiring,
and it truly it makes me like I wish I
was more like that. I think that those three guys
right there that are named just off the top of
(44:16):
my head, like they they truly have like carved their
own paths. And they haven't always been like the favorite son,
you know, They've they've been the the forgotten son more
times than not. And yet they just won't take no
(44:36):
for an answer. And how do you not respect, you know,
guys like that.
Speaker 6 (44:42):
I'm sure, like Babe Ruth said, you can't beat the
guy who won't give up.
Speaker 4 (44:47):
Yeah, it's the truth, man, It's the truth. I Ha's
Diamond Dallas Page too, you know. I mean these are
all people that I know firsthand, and that's truly who
they show you.
Speaker 3 (45:03):
They are like more times than not, over and over
and over.
Speaker 4 (45:07):
And you know it's great to see, like I speaking
of Joe Hendry, to see the way that that crowd
that we wrestled in front of, the way that they
interacted that he's really he adds such value just his
(45:28):
gimmick adds such value to the show because it allows
for the crowd to be interactive. You know, he's found
a way to get that engagement with them, and dare
I say it makes the show better for everyone. Like wrestling.
(45:49):
In the position I was against him, the life was easy,
but life was also sp spontaneous and fun.
Speaker 3 (45:59):
You know, we we we did it.
Speaker 4 (46:03):
In my opinion, we went out and we did We
did wrestling the way that you know people before us
did it, and uh that made me proud and I thought,
I thought we did a good job. And yeah, I mean,
I can't say enough good things about Henry.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
He's all the all the.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
All the attention he's getting right now. I hope it
continues and he deserves it quick.
Speaker 2 (46:31):
Henry story.
Speaker 7 (46:32):
When you guys are at you did TNA a couple
of years ago at the Armory. There was an issue
with getting out the ambulance out site, so they held
up the show for a little bit so they couldn't
let people inside. Yes, he came outside and greeted everybody online.
Speaker 2 (46:47):
Took some pictures, signed some stuff. He tend to do that. Guys.
Speaker 7 (46:52):
Stayed in the locker room and played himself all week
care But now he walked out.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
He shook hands and.
Speaker 4 (46:57):
Well, you actually cannot at the armory. You that you cannot.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
There's a huge you've never seen the sign about masturbating
in the armory.
Speaker 5 (47:09):
You can't do it there.
Speaker 3 (47:10):
No, that's blashings blashing No. That means no, you could,
they like, and the penalty is death.
Speaker 4 (47:19):
Wow, they put if they catch you masturbating in the armory,
they kill.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
You in the armory, in the army, in the So,
I don't know that it was that. Henry is such
a good guy, Frank.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
I think it's because he went in there like, oh,
I can't wait to rub one out, and then he
saw that sign and was like, well, fuck, I don't
want to die. I might as well, you know, but
I'm horny. I can't keep my hands off myself. I
got to go outside and mingle with the people.
Speaker 8 (47:52):

The Great Day of Florida.
Speaker 3 (50:29):
They're already back to school.
Speaker 5 (50:30):
So yeah, like a week or two ago, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (50:34):
Yeah, there there are two three weeks in at this point,
and the bus system down here, Holy shit, the my
my daughter's boss that you would not believe. I and listen,
New York State gets a lot of things wrong. But
(50:55):
I don't know, man, I've never seen such dropping of
the ball when it comes to the transportation of these
children to school. Like and how somebody does not hang
for this.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
You know what I mean? Like, Wow, these are the
children and we're just.
Speaker 4 (51:17):
Bus stops, Like bus bus is completely missing the stop
or coming an hour and thirty minutes late to the
stop or not or forget it, like not bringing the
kids home. It's just it's like they've failed on every level.
(51:42):
And then they give excuses My wife was in a
scenario today where she was actually speaking to the bus
driver Will the bus driver that does the route, and
the woman just flat out lied right to my wife's face.
My wife was like, well, that's impossible because the app
(52:05):
it says you're right here while we're talking to you
right here, and it was like, because there's in the
navigation you can track them. And my wife was bringing
up something about that, and the woman started to backtrack
and lie right to her face, and my wife was like, well,
(52:26):
that's funny because you're right here and it says you're
right here, and the woman was just like, well, I
don't know, Well.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
That's exactly what it comes down to.
Speaker 4 (52:48):
That's what I don't know means in that scenario means like, Okay,
you got me.
Speaker 3 (52:53):
Yes, I'm lying.
Speaker 4 (52:55):
I'm an adult and I'm lying to you about what
you're asking me about my job performance.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
I'm lying to you.
Speaker 2 (53:09):
I think I would have some uh issues with my
kids be on that bus. They can't get it right.
Speaker 6 (53:15):
I'm just trying to figure out what's going on when
they picked the kids up from school and they don't
bring them home.
Speaker 5 (53:22):
What are they doing with the kids. Who's driving around
with the kids on the school bus.
Speaker 4 (53:26):
This is what everybody has been has been for us
since Willow's been going back to school and it's her
first year at the middle school, you know.
Speaker 5 (53:42):
So it's like, yeah, and they missed the bus stop.
Speaker 6 (53:48):
So like bus driver comes down the street, kids standing
at the bus stop.
Speaker 5 (53:52):
Bus driver just goes he look kids.
Speaker 3 (53:54):
Yeah, yess.
Speaker 4 (54:00):
Right right, And then the kids are showing up like
an hour and a half late to school and whatever,
and so like, yeah, they're getting yelled at. But even
if they don't get yelled at, and then if they
were to say like, oh well we won't mark them tardy, okay, fine,
But like with Willow, she's in advanced classes. She can't
(54:21):
miss an hour of the day, you know, she can't.
You can't expect that child to then be on top
of her schoolwork.
Speaker 3 (54:33):
It's just insane.
Speaker 5 (54:34):
Christ right.
Speaker 3 (54:37):
The kids, Yeah, welcome, Welcome to Florida.
Speaker 5 (54:44):
Oh before we go, bye bye.
Speaker 6 (54:46):
Watch the video I sent in the group chat too,
the one of the tsunami from Big Bronson Reed onto
bron Strowman.
Speaker 3 (54:55):
Okay it was yeah, yeah, really making Ronson Reid quite
the monster. Yeah, I'm happy to see it. Oh, I
love it. Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 4 (55:09):
He and I go way back to Noah bro rustling. Noah,
he came into towards the tail end. Yeah, I mean,
and he's just awesome. He's an awesome performer a good
human being too, so that's makes it. He just makes
(55:30):
you happy to see the success and that the company
sees such promise and stock in him because he is.
Speaker 3 (55:38):
He's awesome and he's very unique.
Speaker 8 (55:39):
And yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 3 (55:41):
It's very cool.
Speaker 6 (55:42):
They made a point last night while during the match
it might have been cold. Maybe it was what's his

wasn't good. I loved the three of them together, but
like they just they they brought it out.
Speaker 3 (57:20):
They took it away, They brought it out, they took
it away.
Speaker 4 (57:22):
I just there was just a feeling of like, he's
not going to get a fair shot with this, so
he's better off getting something else in a fresh coat
of paint coming back. Like, I think he's got a
real opportunity here and we'll see, hopefully he leans way
(57:44):
into the gimmick part of it, because that's that's really.
Speaker 3 (57:48):
You know, that's that's kind of what makes a break
shitt with WWE. Like you're if you're a in ring guy,
there's gotta be some more to you. And uh, I
think that that's just that, that's just kind of you know,
w w E. You're gonna be successful there, like you
(58:10):
really gotta gotta bring the story and the gimmick and.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
I lost, But did you perform well?
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Well, if you don't win, you didn't perform well. H right,
unless we're going to be unless we decide that this

happy to be here and willing, willing to pull the
(02:47):
curtain back and just hey, everybody, come on in.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Let's see.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Let's just show you exactly how the doughnuts are made,
because this is our business to trash and stop all over.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Go ahead, eat the donuts, see how they're made, Throw

Speaker 4 (03:07):
The garbage, do whatever you want to do with those donuts,
right Frank, Okay, so you lost?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
How is Jehanny? How is Johannry doing?
Speaker 3 (03:16):
John? You good?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Did you see him sing a song?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
What do you mean? Did he Did I see him?
I wrestled? I hope, so I definitely saw him, unless
I wrestled him with my eyes closed.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Well you lost, obviously.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
There's a friend of mine, A friend of mine sent me.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
So it's my wife's best friend, actually her husband.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Well, I mean he's my friend. We're friends.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Like that's how we met each other, was our wives,
but like we're we are now friends. I mean, I
have a have a relationship with the man outside of
his wife and my wife were were able to like,
you know, speak without our wives present. I continue anyway,
(04:09):
he sent me this clip. I don't know if it
was in Russia or what it was, but it was
a blindfolded boxing battle Royal.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So it's like twenty guys in a.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Ring with boxing gloves on and they're blindfolded and they're
just swinging at.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Each other haymakers. I don't know if genius is the word.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
You wouldn't see that, No, I see that.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Yeah, I probably would.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
Dudes in a ring just throwing absolute haymakers at each
other blindfolded.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly what.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yeah, it's well, I mean, I don't know if you
have get thrown over the top. I'm assuming if you
got knock the fuck out, hey, drive you out of
the ring.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Somebody, Well Russians.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I say Russians because that was the Pittsburgh then like
group Group MMA.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Thing that I saw too one time. I was like, God,
damn it, they're crazy.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
But I feel like I feel like twenty dudes in
a ring wearing a blindfold, you got a pretty good
chance of hitting another guy. Like twenty dudes in a ring.
Is there's a lot of guys in the ring that
just be swinging around.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Well, i mean I'm sure that there were I'm sure
nobody that put this thing together were like, well, let's
put like four guys in there, so that there's you know,
they got to really take a while to actually connect
with each other.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I'm sure they were probably coming.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Down guys out.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
They were coming down from like a hundred.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Let's put one hundred in there, and they probably couldn't
find a hundred. They could only find twenty that were
willing to do it.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
Oh, I think if they were, if they were in Russia,
I'm sure they find other guys to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
They are strange. Read those Russians, weird group.
Speaker 9 (06:09):
If you too, I listen, I don't know if you
too are qualified to speak so authoritatively about Russian people.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
I'm Polish.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, okay, so neither one of you are Russian, nor
do either of you have Russian heritage or Russian wives.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
You don't know that.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Cruche, I mean without absolute question.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
No, You're right, I don't, but I would think that
I would be aware in some degree.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Anyway. What what is this podcast about? What? Well?
Speaker 5 (07:00):
You were telling us.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
About what you did this weekend, and then Frank interrupted that, yeah,
I think you.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
Start telling some story about your friend, alleged friend who
knows Russian boxing or.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Remember to be thought we were talking about I thought
we were.
Speaker 8 (07:16):
Talking about Joe Henry.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
I thought so too.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
Hey, did you guys know he's from Scotland. No, yes, Yeah,
he's from Scotland. I knew he was, Like, I just
thought he was English.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
He's not. He's Scottish.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I think because I know he's from I know he
lives in Scotland. So I would assume.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
There you go something again, they assumptions, assumptions.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Yeah, assuming I don't have a Russian wife.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I think that's a fair assumptions.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Actually pretty fucking accurate. I don't think that's an assumption.
Speaker 8 (07:54):
Right before we.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Got there first off, So you don't have a wife, correct, Yeah,
so she can't be Russian if she doesn't exist.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
The terror is not Russian, but she exists.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Right, but are you married?
Speaker 5 (08:13):
No?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
No, right, so to terror.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
I got a Russian way show that.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
We'll slow her down. Shut up, frank.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
So before we came out, we were talking about the
news of the PC moving to Vegas.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Wait is this before or after you got done eating?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
During?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
I think it was during Yeah, he was still wrapping up.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, so rumor has it the PC is moving to.
Speaker 7 (08:48):
Vegas now in last Vegas, Las Vethas. Now, in recent years,
Florida has become a hotbed of independent in wrestling.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Will that affect anything going forward?
Speaker 8 (09:02):
No, okay, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
I mean, Tampa back in the day was the like
mecca for all wrestlers to live for numerous reasons, numerous
alleged reasons.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
One of which that I had always.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Heard when I started breaking into the business was that
the airport is really easy.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And you know, great whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Well, I went to the Tampa airport, went through it recently,
and I don't know, it's like any other airport, So
who knows.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
But then I know Tampa was.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
That was where Florida's Championship Wrestling, you know, Dusty's version
of it was back in the day.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
But then even the recursor two n XT was in Tampa. Yeah,
so I think the you know, then when it came to.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
Orlando, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
I mean, honestly, it's a good question. That is a
very good question. It'll be interesting to see what comes
of it, what happens. I mean, you have to think
just based on numbers alone, not everybody who is employed
by the PC at this point in Orlando is going
to move to Las Vegas. So what will come of
(10:40):
what will become of all of the bells and whistles
and specific departments and whatnot that that run out of
that out of the PC that wouldn't necessarily go to Vegas.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
We'll see.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
How would you describe the physical appearance of the PC
from I've never been through it?
Speaker 5 (11:03):
You have right?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Uh? Do you remember not the mug but the pit?
M Yeah, it was a lot like.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
The locker room, the one that Tomaso had his office
and always smelled a little bit like piss.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Yeah. Yeah, that's what the PC was.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Like.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
I feel like it should be better than that.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
I mean, they tried to make it better than that,
but it ended up a lot like the pit and
it smelled like pissh Yeah, all right, it's where dreams
go to die boys this podcast.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Yay. No, the PC, I don't know like where specifically, Like, so.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
The.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Main room had I want to say, five.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Rings, and this is back when I first started working there,
maybe three rings, I don't know, it was three or five.
But then everything changed, like through COVID and stuff, because
(12:36):
we stopped doing tapings at full sale, and so that's
when the PC took you know, another major overhaul. And
then in recent years, at least the last time I
had gone back.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
There to do.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Some coaching, they had.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Because it's in like a warehouse district, so they had
commandeered or bought a few of the warehouse space, a
few different buildings in that area, that neighborhood, and they
those had rings in them as well, and some of
(13:25):
them were like when we did the War Games, there
were two rings put into a couple of those buildings
that they must have owned at that time too, and
we just walked a little bit off site and we
were able to, you know, have two rings enclosed in
the cages, so we were able to, you know, just
(13:48):
just work things out in there if we needed to.
Those are now part of the PC.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
And I don't know because a lot.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Of stuff change so much after COVID and when that
became Like what you see now for NXT is the
performance center that's inside the building. Oh shoot, yeah, like
that that's where NXT is taped now in the performance center,
(14:19):
and they don't that that's where the rings, the practice
rings used to be.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That the five.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Rings that I was talking about earlier when I first
got to NXT, when it was NXT Black and Gold.
That was the you know, the main training area. And
then there's a fully functional gym like you would expect
to see a like a you know, like a college
or university with a football team. It's like that, but
(14:51):
maybe a little bit smaller because they don't.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Need now they have a lot of.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
A lot of people, a lot of wrestlers are there,
but it's not as big as like the like a
college football team would need for their athletes.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
And then there was there was a sports medicine room
you know where you would go and that reminded me.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Of a college locker room. Also like had pet tables
and cold ice tubs and yeah, I mean all this
stuff so.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Everything you needed as a performer was right on site.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
One.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
And then they had a room for like green screen things,
you know, so if they had a v stuff that
had a different wing of the building. And again this
is going back a couple of years too, like to
when I was actually working there.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
So I'm sure.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
There's more now, you know, because they were never one
to like not spend money, so I'm sure it's it's
quite a bit more equipped now, but that building.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Is going to be up for sale coming up, So
there's the.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
House of Champions have a similar model, just obviously lower.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Scale though.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
House the Champions want like they want to have a
similar like.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
I think there's a lot of things from.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
The PC that, you know, like any wrestling school would
be smart to kind of mimic. They are unique in
a couple of different ways. One before we get into.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
What makes them unique.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
But the one thing that they are waiting on right
now is a second ring. So there's not a lot
of wrestling schools that have two rings. They're gonna have
a second upcoming soon. And then they.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
They and it's their story to tell, so I won't
tell it.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
But Nick and Renee they're married and they own the
House Champions. They were looking for a building and they
looked at this This particular building was the first one
they looked at and it was once batting cages, so
it had a fully AstroTurf field in it, and they
(17:38):
actually had like a fully functional gym like from dumbbells,
astro turf field, kettlebells, they had, they just they had everything,
squad racks, they they they hit the jackpot with the
(17:59):
building they got and I guess, again, it's their story,
so I might have the details wrong, but like, I'm
pretty sure they bought all the equipment with the place,
and they they have as far as Orlando is concerned,
they have one of the better gyms that I've been
to in the state of Florida. Is it similar to
(18:20):
like how the Dark Arts in Tampa, like Malachi Black has,
you know, he buys top end equipment and he's got
like a really like a beautiful facility in like the
(18:41):
garage off his house. It's crazy, but they're building. They're
building another building because they're growing as well.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
So yeah, I mean, and this brings me back, No,
go ahead, no.
Speaker 7 (18:57):
Let's say so it may be a benefit that the
PC is leaving town because then you have two premier
schools in the area.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Now, I don't know, maybe, I mean, we'll see how
this affects everything. It's something I thought about today, was,
you know, when I heard the news, and I thought, like,
I don't know, I'm not really sure how that will
affect because Orlando's become you know, like a hotbed and
(19:32):
even bigger than that just Florida in general. But I
feel like Florida has always been. And I don't know,
if you know the number one facility in the industry
leaving town or leaving state, I don't know. We'll see
what that does.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
I mean, hell, maybe Tony Kahan decides to move shop
to Orlando and buy that building. I mean, he's got
enough money to do it.
Speaker 7 (20:04):
I think you hit on something though, because they're running
shows at that Daily's place during COVID. Yeah, and I
think it kind of benefit them from a financial standpoint,
because when you're trying to run these venues, run the
country and you're only drawing, say five thousand people. We'll
say the MVP arena holds what thirteen to sixty thousand,
(20:28):
you only.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
Put give or take twelve to thirteen Ye all.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Right, So, and you're only putting five thousand gracefully in
that building, you're losing losing money. So if you keep
your product at Daily's Place or the PC or someplace
where it looks like it's full, you're saving on travel
costs to grant it. You're not making the house shows
do all that stuff. But at some point you got
to think about the financial piece.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Of the business.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Then you could run your big shows, big shows in
a Big Arena.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah, I mean I'm not qualified.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
To really have an opinion on it, you know, because
my opinion would not be educated in any way really
when it comes to that. I know that they say
that aw's attendance is down. I don't think they had
much trouble with Wembley Stadium.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
At least.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Yeah. I mean, the European fans.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Are known for coming out in droves, and some of
that can be attributed to the fact that, like they
don't it's not as readily available to them. But fifty thousand, regardless,
like people can say whatever they want, fifty thousand, it's
fifty thousand damn people to come and see wrestling. And
(21:52):
I was thinking about this yesterday, like there's a lot
of derogatory stuff that goes around about AW.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
But and there's a lot of people that will.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
Knock the brand, et cetera, et cetera, the booking, whatever,
whatever can be knocked will be knocked.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
That's just wrestling in general. But to think.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
When I went to nxt SO twenty seventeen eighteen, when
we were there, to think that at that time there
was no real alternative to WWE. There was WWE, and
then there was like kind of TNA and there's no
(22:42):
knock on TNA, like they're doing incredible things now. But
the fact that aew is even talked about in the
same sentence as like.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That wasn't a thing then. That was still like some
crazy idea. And I remember a specific because Kyle.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
And myself and Adam we were going to NXT and
Roddy was there, and then there were the guys that
we were leaving, like the Tavens and the Bennetts and
the matt and Nick Jackson and Marty Skirrell at the
time was doing a lot of stuff with them in
New Japan and uh Hangman Page and like these guys
(23:28):
Cody Rhodes at the time, you know they were and
this aw thing was coming together and it was like, well,
what but what's it going to be?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
And blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
To think that now, like all these years removed from then,
it's what it is, like, love it or hate it,
it's still it's It's a goddamn amazing story, it really is.
And to think that they just put fifty thousand in
Wembley Stadium again and it's and it's a it's a
(24:00):
a legitimate alternative TOWWWE. If you don't want to watch WWE,
you have another major wrestling company that you can decide
to watch.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That was not the case when we left Bring a
Honor and went to NXT.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
And to your point, like for the people that shit
on AW, it's still in its infantile stages here.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
It's not WWE has been around for how long.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I think like two or three years at least, WWE
at least to at least three years.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
Yeah, yeah, right, So you think about how long they've
been doing it, which apparently hasn't been that long, and
neither is AW and they've grown considerably.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Yeah, I mean against what WWE is doing.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
I think people lose track of that stuff. And I
think that there is some credit that is deserved to
be thrown their way, and that includes Tony Kahan and
everybody else that is there doing what they're doing because
it's you know, it's a huge production and I mean
(25:17):
they're selling tickets, like you know, maybe their attendance is
down a little bit, okay, but.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Maybe a year from now it'll come back up, like
you don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
And just the fact that there's competition is like it
was not thought to be possible at one time, and
that time was not too long ago, because we're talking
about like twenty eighteen.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
It's just crazy, you know, it's just crazy. I don't know,
and no, none of us have seen all out correct
or all in, all out, all out, all in, all out,
So I know, I know Nigel came back, yes, and
(26:09):
god damn it. You want to talk about smile like that,
I was watching the clip that I saw and then
I realized how big the smile was on my face.
I've known Nigel for years now and we've had, you know,
times where we were in more consistent contact than others.
(26:34):
And it's the wrestling business. You come in and out
of it, but there were times that we were you know,
pretty close and talked quite a bit.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
So I know.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Him on a very personal level. And man, to see
him like to see him and especially in the UK,
back in a wrestling ring and you know, physically doing
it was man.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Uh it just I get chills thinking about it.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
And then to see him mixing it up with Kyle,
you know, because Kyle, like Nigel, wasn't wrestling when when
Kyle and I were doing our thing and ring of
honor or not. I don't think Nigel was wrestling when
Kyle even first came in the Ring of Honor, so
I think that was the first time, you know, probably meeting.
I think that was in the part of the Gauntlet
(27:30):
match where if I'm not mistaken, Danielson ends up winning
the world title. But and I don't know if that's
like a one off for Nigel or if Nigel's gonna
gonna try to make a go of it.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
What.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Regardless what it is, it made me smile, and I'm
just happy for the human being that is Nigel McGinnis.
I mean it was awesome and for that alone. I
think I said it before, like about the way that
that Aw and Tony Kahn took care of Kyle, Kyle
and him being such a close friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Like.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
They they in no way can I knock them or
would I even want to knock Tony conor aw at
this point for you, you put Nigel back in the
wrestling ring, Like how can I not applaud that and
then like have your back like that.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That was just awesome.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
The crowd team hot, especially when Danielsen won the belt.
When will Ospray went his magic championship. That's alwaich Taeltale
signed me and crams. It's a long show, but when
the crowd still pops at the end for the outcome,
that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I didn't see much of it. I have seen some clips.
It seems like it was a successful show. Fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I mean, even if the show sucked, you still got
their money. That's you know, it's it's a good show.
I mean, fifty thousand, there's nothing to like fart at.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I wouldn't far at it at all, No, man, I
would not as far as that one.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Yeah, Frank, I think like just when you look.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
At you, you you would think like, yeah, that's a
guy that sits in his own brew sometimes, like he'll
just sit far and just enjoy his own.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Drip, his own drippings.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Disgusting, Yes it is.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Fuck, you're disgusting.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
You disgusted me. Yeah, you make you make me sick
to my stomach.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
That wrap I just had is like right, let's throw it,
just come back up.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Great, all right.
Speaker 7 (29:59):
So, so on a somber nose, we lost one of
the true greats Psycho.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
Sid Yeah, yeah he so.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
I'm basing it on kind of a eulogizing thing that
I saw Dallas Post. I believe Sid had cancer, which
you know is so my aunt had cancer, my cousin
(30:36):
had cancer. In no way did it you know, really
it's not my story to tell again, but I know
that like the treatments would take so much out of them.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
That it's like, you know.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
When you have to treat this thing is so distrust
active that you have to treat it with like a poison.
That's how you treat the condition. And there's a family
member right now of my wife's that is going through
(31:18):
treatment as well for cancer. And just to see the
way it just it the appearance of that person when
they're going through treatments and then the stories you hear
about how little energy they have, and you know, it's
just it's so, you know, it's evil man. Cancer is
(31:43):
something definitely created by the enemy. It's you know, as
a Christian, I you know, it's just evil.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
We're actually one of the bookings Matt has set up.
Matt Matt Hallock has gotten squared away from me. Will
be October fifth, I believe, and it's in Wisconsin. It's
called the Pink Heels Foundation. We're doing a they're doing
(32:24):
a wrestling show that I'm going to wrestle on and
some DDP yoga we're gonna be doing. I'll get the details.
It's it's a ways out. It's October fifth.
Speaker 5 (32:39):
Is it the one in Sheboygan?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Yeah, yeah, Sheboygan, Wisconsin. And I'll get the details. I
should have them now before I even brought anything up.
But it's not like I've been very professional at any
point on this show. So this is just, you know,
(33:02):
go just stack it on top of the pile that's
already there. But maybe next week I'll get the actual
details there. But yeah, we got another. We got a
it's a fundraiser and it's it's uh, you know, I'm
looking forward to it. I was actually talking to the
(33:22):
promoter today a little bit over text, and they're excited
and I'm excited, especially all things considered. And yeah, so
back to Sid, I don't know. I guess the thing
that I'll that stands out to me the most with
(33:43):
Sid was just he just had an unforgettable appearance and
like intensity that as a kid like kind of scared
the ship out of me.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
I remember him as the skyscrapers with him and Danny Spivey. Yeah,
and I'm like, man, these two guys are monsters, and
they they look like they were actually jacking people up.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
They didn't.
Speaker 7 (34:10):
It didn't look like anything was again like I could say,
and the power Bomb looked.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Like he was driving a ma.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Well, I think that's because they were.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
And another thing I remember what I said was when
he broke his leg.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Oh that was the worst. I was actually just talking
about that at work.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
I watched that on e Bomb's World like the infant
stages of the fucking Internet, and I kept watching it
and I almost threw up every time I watched it.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
It was awful.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
So why did you go back more than once?
Speaker 5 (34:43):
Because I was like, oh shit, I gotta watch that again.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Oh my god, I feel like I'm gonna throw up.
Like I just kind of burped and got a little
in the back of my throat. Let me watch that again.
What are you an asshole? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (34:57):
I watched it like ten times in a row.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Good lord, I'm gonna stop telling people we were born
in the same room.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
Okay, Well, I mean it's fine because not too many
people know who I am outside of the area, so
they're probably like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
So that's fine. I'm also BigGAN.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yeah, if you polka, I don't know if anybody. I
don't know if anybody knows you here in Florida.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
My mom lives in Florida. She knows who I am.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
She does.
Speaker 5 (35:29):
She doesn't admit it to many people, but she doesn't
know who I am.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Okay, well my kids don't admit I'm their dad. So
there we go.
Speaker 5 (35:39):
That looks like we got some good ship going for.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Another my my other favorite uh Sid thing too was the.
Speaker 5 (35:52):
The live interview with me and Jean.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
We're live.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
He's like, he goes, let me start it over. He goes,
We're live.
Speaker 8 (36:01):
Yeah, Well I.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Laugh, I laugh.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
But I'm definitely capable of that. I'm definitely capable.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Sure, yep, he was, I think so like for me,
I think, yeah, the skyscrapers were definitely my like introduction
to Sid, and like Sid Vicious was just such a
perfect name. And then you had seen big dudes like
(36:32):
that before, but not big dudes that were jacked the
way he was and like as ripped as he was.
That's what was different about him is that he was
like built like Lex Luger but like Lex Luger on steroids.
(36:53):
On steroids again, you know, he was like an even
bigger Lex. He just he defied he was not supposed
to be. I think some of that too comes from,
like you get used to seeing Andre the Giant or
even Paul White, but to see a guy that's big
(37:15):
like that, who's like proportionate, you know, who doesn't have
like colossal ankles. Let's say, you know, he's got like
whittled down narrow ankles and huge cavs and huge, huge squads.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
And then it's just built like a brick shit house.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Like. I think that's what stuck out to me about Sid.
And then the other thing that I'll never forget. I
always thought that.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
From Mike Tyson's punch Out, I always thought that Soda
Popinski was based on Sid Vicious.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
Really yeah, he always looked to me like Sid Vicious.
He always had that same tight froey like mullet curl.
Huh you're looking up Soda Popinski.
Speaker 8 (38:08):
Yeah, yeah, good polish man.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (38:13):
Yeah, it's a brother.
Speaker 5 (38:14):
He's a friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
And it might have nothing, it might have nothing in
you know, no correlation whatsoever.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
But anyway, anyway, so seeing those two, him and Dan Spivey,
the and the like. The look in both of their
eyes was that they were like gone, like off the reservation.
And you know, I'm not sure you can manufacture that look.
(38:44):
I think so. I don't know you. I can't really see. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Wait, maybe it's not Soda Popinski. It's not Soda Popinski.
It was who was the guy before Tyson? Not Soda Popinski.
It's the guy that you fought before Tyson.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
I swear he was. Oh not Jesse Ventura.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Jesse Barfield.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
No, that's reaction.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
Can you google it.
Speaker 5 (39:22):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 4 (39:24):
He was the guy you fought before Tyson. I could
get to him, but I couldn't get past him. I
think I got past him, but I couldn't get past Tyson.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
So the guy before Tyson was Macho Man.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Yes, Macho Man was his name.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
And I swear to God if you can pull up
a Google image of him, he looks like said Vicious.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
He doesn't look like Randy Savage at all.
Speaker 10 (39:52):
Oh yeah, brother, freak out, freak out, Jesus Christ, talk
about yourselves.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
We should.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
I wish we could get the Jeopardy scene right.
Speaker 6 (40:12):
No, that was the copa cabana, Frank, the one when
you got it?
Speaker 5 (40:28):
All right? So that is macho man from punching.
Speaker 4 (40:31):
Yes, now doesn't that look more like that? Could be
said look at the hair?
Speaker 5 (40:36):
Yeah, yes, this one. Yeah, you were a way off
because I was like, so I don't remember looking like that.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
No, no, macho yes there you go, Yes for sure?
All right.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
So, oddly enough, when I looked up Soda Popinski his
bio came up. It was like thirty five year old Russian.
I'm like, this is really too far in depth for
a video game character.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I mean, now look at what they got. You got
virtual reality games. Now there I saw where was it?
Was it in the airport the other day?
Speaker 4 (41:12):
They have like virtual stores where you go and play
your I don't know what it is. They were trying
to invite me in, and I.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
Was like, no, no, I pedophile, I can't No. I
just made Frank come on, I just don't want I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
Fair good.
Speaker 7 (41:34):
Yeah, I ran are there any gaming systems in the
fish household?
Speaker 3 (41:39):
No?
Speaker 4 (41:40):
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 6 (41:44):
Just just to put a bow on the said thing
with condolences to the family, the grandkids.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Yeah, he just did a Orgos signing.
Speaker 7 (41:54):
Probably three weeks ago, and you would have known that
he was second on because he I've seen pictures of
him online like that.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
That's a wow, It's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (42:02):
Really yeah. Wow.
Speaker 7 (42:07):
Apparently he had the heart issues of what didn't mend
The actual cancer contributed to it, but he had a
heart failure issue.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
Okay, well that you know, being being that large of
a human being comes at a price.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
You know, it's generally there's generally some heart issues for
people that are that big. Thanks are working, you know,
working over time? Andrea where Andre Reid?
Speaker 5 (42:43):
Yes, Andre Dawson. No, okay, good?
Speaker 7 (42:52):
Did you guys wives the clip I sent you guys
of Carrying Across and Jesse Ventura.
Speaker 3 (42:58):
No, I saw it, but I didn't watch it.
Speaker 7 (43:00):
Yeah, so he got the opportunity to do his impression
in front of Jesse.
Speaker 8 (43:05):
Oh it's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Yeah, I'll have to watch it.
Speaker 4 (43:10):
I meant I wanted to watch it earlier, but you
sent it to me and I was somewhere that I
couldn't listen, and then I.
Speaker 3 (43:20):
Forgot that I had it.
Speaker 7 (43:22):
It's cool to see those guys like carry Across meet
the guys they grew up watching.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
It was pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (43:28):
Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Well, I mean I can't say enough positive things about Cross.
Cross is just a I mean, he's a great performer,
and he's a guy that similarly to like, I'll say,
like guys like Joe Henry and guys like mac Hardona
and Cross, like, rather than complain about what they don't have,
(43:55):
they truly have mastered the art of making the most
out of what they do have. And it's just it's inspiring,
and it truly it makes me like I wish I
was more like that. I think that those three guys
right there that are named just off the top of
(44:16):
my head, like they they truly have like carved their
own paths. And they haven't always been like the favorite son,
you know, They've they've been the the forgotten son more
times than not. And yet they just won't take no
(44:36):
for an answer. And how do you not respect, you know,
guys like that.
Speaker 6 (44:42):
I'm sure, like Babe Ruth said, you can't beat the
guy who won't give up.
Speaker 4 (44:47):
Yeah, it's the truth, man, It's the truth. I Ha's
Diamond Dallas Page too, you know. I mean these are
all people that I know firsthand, and that's truly who
they show you.
Speaker 3 (45:03):
They are like more times than not, over and over
and over.
Speaker 4 (45:07):
And you know it's great to see, like I speaking
of Joe Hendry, to see the way that that crowd
that we wrestled in front of, the way that they
interacted that he's really he adds such value just his
(45:28):
gimmick adds such value to the show because it allows
for the crowd to be interactive. You know, he's found
a way to get that engagement with them, and dare
I say it makes the show better for everyone. Like wrestling.
(45:49):
In the position I was against him, the life was easy,
but life was also sp spontaneous and fun.
Speaker 3 (45:59):
You know, we we we did it.
Speaker 4 (46:03):
In my opinion, we went out and we did We
did wrestling the way that you know people before us
did it, and uh that made me proud and I thought,
I thought we did a good job. And yeah, I mean,
I can't say enough good things about Henry.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
He's all the all the.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
All the attention he's getting right now. I hope it
continues and he deserves it quick.
Speaker 2 (46:31):
Henry story.
Speaker 7 (46:32):
When you guys are at you did TNA a couple
of years ago at the Armory. There was an issue
with getting out the ambulance out site, so they held
up the show for a little bit so they couldn't
let people inside. Yes, he came outside and greeted everybody online.
Speaker 2 (46:47):
Took some pictures, signed some stuff. He tend to do that. Guys.
Speaker 7 (46:52):
Stayed in the locker room and played himself all week
care But now he walked out.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
He shook hands and.
Speaker 4 (46:57):
Well, you actually cannot at the armory. You that you cannot.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
There's a huge you've never seen the sign about masturbating
in the armory.
Speaker 5 (47:09):
You can't do it there.
Speaker 3 (47:10):
No, that's blashings blashing No. That means no, you could,
they like, and the penalty is death.
Speaker 4 (47:19):
Wow, they put if they catch you masturbating in the armory,
they kill.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
You in the armory, in the army, in the So,
I don't know that it was that. Henry is such
a good guy, Frank.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
I think it's because he went in there like, oh,
I can't wait to rub one out, and then he
saw that sign and was like, well, fuck, I don't
want to die. I might as well, you know, but
I'm horny. I can't keep my hands off myself. I
got to go outside and mingle with the people.
Speaker 8 (47:52):
Good lord.

Speaker 5 (50:30):
So yeah, like a week or two ago, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (50:34):
Yeah, there there are two three weeks in at this point,
and the bus system down here, Holy shit, the my
my daughter's boss that you would not believe. I and listen,
New York State gets a lot of things wrong. But
(50:55):
I don't know, man, I've never seen such dropping of
the ball when it comes to the transportation of these
children to school. Like and how somebody does not hang
for this.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
You know what I mean? Like, Wow, these are the
children and we're just.
Speaker 4 (51:17):
Bus stops, Like bus bus is completely missing the stop
or coming an hour and thirty minutes late to the
stop or not or forget it, like not bringing the
kids home. It's just it's like they've failed on every level.
(51:42):
And then they give excuses My wife was in a
scenario today where she was actually speaking to the bus
driver Will the bus driver that does the route, and
the woman just flat out lied right to my wife's face.
My wife was like, well, that's impossible because the app
(52:05):
it says you're right here while we're talking to you
right here, and it was like, because there's in the
navigation you can track them. And my wife was bringing
up something about that, and the woman started to backtrack
and lie right to her face, and my wife was like, well,
(52:26):
that's funny because you're right here and it says you're
right here, and the woman was just like, well, I
don't know, Well.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
That's exactly what it comes down to.
Speaker 4 (52:48):
That's what I don't know means in that scenario means like, Okay,
you got me.
Speaker 3 (52:53):
Yes, I'm lying.
Speaker 4 (52:55):
I'm an adult and I'm lying to you about what
you're asking me about my job performance.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
I'm lying to you.
Speaker 2 (53:09):
I think I would have some uh issues with my
kids be on that bus. They can't get it right.
Speaker 6 (53:15):
I'm just trying to figure out what's going on when
they picked the kids up from school and they don't
bring them home.
Speaker 5 (53:22):
What are they doing with the kids. Who's driving around
with the kids on the school bus.
Speaker 4 (53:26):
This is what everybody has been has been for us
since Willow's been going back to school and it's her
first year at the middle school, you know.
Speaker 5 (53:42):
