Nick D – Dr. Keith Lipinski, Pro-Wrestling, and More Terrible Celebrity Side-Projects

Nick teams up with pro-wrestling expert Dr. Keith Lipinski from AAW Pro to break down the latest in the squared circle. Despite a wave of injuries to stars like Ospreay, Strickland, and Cole, AEW has been delivering strong shows and top-tier pay-per-views. They also talk about how the women are continuing to dominate WWE, why Netflix ratings are baffling, the surprising TNA invasion of NXT, and what fans can expect at the next AAW show in Berwyn, Illinois. Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to chat about the charm of Indian Summer and the weekend ahead before diving into the hall of shame that is celebrity side-projects. From Sean Connery’s bizarre turn as a skateboarding veterinarian in an animated flop, to John Travolta’s Scientology-inspired rock album, to will.i.am’s failed attempt at launching his own smartphone, it’s a reminder that fame doesn’t always equal good ideas.
