It's not ME it's YOU

On this week’s episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver settle in for a deep and wide-ranging conversation that goes far beyond wrestling. The episode, titled “It’s Not Me, It’s You,” touches on everything from Kevin’s return to the road for a fan convention, to thoughtful reflections on grief, fatherhood, autism, and the emotional impact of connecting with fans face-to-face. Kevin opens up about what it felt like to get back out in the world after some time away, recounting his travel experience, interactions with fans, and a touching story about someone who brought him a photo of his late son that hit him harder than expected. He and Sean also dig into the kind of connection that can form between performers and their audiences—especially when people feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether it's the dad who listens to the podcast in the car with his daughter, or the fans who just want a minute to say thanks, Kev gets real about what that means to him at this stage in his life. The guys also spend some time talking about Kevin’s run-in with Shannon Elizabeth at the con (yes, she owns a rhino), and the surreal feeling of chatting casually with Henry Winkler when your brain still remembers him as “The Fonz.” There’s a moment where the conversation shifts into a discussion of autism and how people on the spectrum can be misread or mishandled by those who don’t understand. Kevin draws on his own experiences with his son to talk about empathy, patience, and just taking the time to listen. Later in the episode, they analyze John Cena’s current direction in WWE, breaking down the psychology of a slow-burn breakup between a performer and the audience that used to love him. It’s not just about titles—it’s about worth, legacy, and feeling like you gave your all only to be left behind. That leads into a great sidebar on Kurt Angle’s criminally underrated TNA run and why that company never got the respect it deserved. As always, there are plenty of laughs too. Kevin recounts getting pulled over and ticketed in what may or may not have been a construction zone, tells stories from his days in the business, and somehow we end up talking about orbs flying over Daytona, chamomile tea, Ron White stand-up, and black shoe polish as a home remedy for ringworm. It’s one of those episodes that bounces between hilarious, heartfelt, and heavy without missing a beat. Whether you’re here for the wrestling talk, the behind-the-scenes stories, or the real-life reflections, this one delivers across the board.
