  Speaker 2: So down. How long you've been at the coffee?
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Uh you know, I really started getting
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: into it probably about ten years ago. Ten years Yeah, yeah,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Well we do w We travel so much. We're on
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: the road all the time. We don't have a lot
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: of time. A lot of people think it's very glamorous.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Not very glamorous. Right back, say ten years ago, I
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: was doing roughly two hundred shows a year, wrestling two
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: interred matches plus a year. Every day we go to
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: a new city. A lot of hotels, right, a lot
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: of back of the arenas, a lot of gyms. The
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: one thing that was different was a coffee shop. So
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: every time we go to we'd be able to find
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: a coffee shop, sit down, get a little of the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: local field, local vibe, local culture. But it also it
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: made me a stop because then I started looking for
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: the best coffee. I had to have the best coffee.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: It's to acquire a taste.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I made a difference. I started to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: notice the difference. So me and my buddy who we
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: traveled together all the time, we started to just try
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: to find the best coffee shops.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: What should go to coffee like I can at home.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: If you make coffee, you have a brand that you like,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I mean.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Well, currently my own brand okay, yeah, yeah, My wife
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and I just started our own brand of coffee called Amo,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: which yeah yeah, yeah, Latin for love nice yeah and
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Latin no, not at all Irish. I think Gras is
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Irish for love g r a with a little little
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: tick on it, but not not quite as sexy as Amo.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: So Amo. Yeah. We launched Amo a couple of weeks
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: ago and it's it's kicking ass.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Is it smooth?
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, very smooth. I mean we we only do high
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: quality coffee. We're here at Daglo in Venice and Daglo
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: there are roasting partners, so they and all of the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: nuance of the coffee. We just do the tasting.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Where's the beans at them?
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Are there everywhere? Yeah? I mean there's a coffee belt, right,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: so you've got everywhere from Africa to the Caribbean to Mexico,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: all the way across that space between the tropics where
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: you can get really good coffee. So we've got farmers
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: in all those different regions that are sourcing the beans.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: But this is a special toy. But like in the morning,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: how do you have your coffee? Do you like it?
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Just BLACKO?
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: First thing I do and I wake up is an espresso.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: That's just espresso, Just a double shot of espresso. No sugar, no,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: not nothing. Don't need it if it's right right. It's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: like wine when you get a taste to it. You know,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: you get a taste of a fine wine. You understand
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the nuance of the flavor and what's good and if
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: it's if it's in you know, pulled a little too
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: long versus a little too short means that the extraction
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: time takes too long, too short. So there's a lot
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: of nerd stuff that goes on with coffee too. So yeah,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: but for me, just a double shot right out of
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the gate, and.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: That's how you slut your day.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Let's go, yeah, because otherwise hard to function without it, right.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: You know what. So my wife is she needs it.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: She's like, I gotta have it. I'm more of a like,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I just it's like I don't need it to like
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: in other words, you don't need it to kick you. No,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I'm okay, you're okay. Function Yeah, I just I like it.

• 8:05
  Speaker 2: honey on.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: This little hot honeycutt?
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Is that what you wanted?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: This isle's uh, let's toast.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: This is beautiful to the belt to the champ yah ah.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: If we had the seth freaking slice, what would it be?
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Buddy?
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Man? You know, when I was a young man, I
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: like weird stuff on my pizza. But I know I
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: used to. I used to order a pizza with green olives.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Green olives on a pizza, that's not too bad. It
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: would be like a pepperoni, a green olive, maybe a
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: red onion, yeah, something something like that. But I might
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: not need some spice. I might popojlapeno on there as well.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but you don't like just a simple plain slice.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I love a plain slice. I mean I think this
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: is fairly plain. You know what I mean you don't think.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: I would say this is a little fancy.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know you got pepperona, you got hot honey,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: you got some model on top.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: I mean it's it's not completely pure.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: You're not pure.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just like just just cheese and sauce. Cheese and sauce.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: That's all you want.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: That's really what I want.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: That's your number one, that's.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Your favorite, that's my goat to.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean people like what they like.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: I mean sometimes I like a little sausage and I
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: might have a little green pepper like.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: You know, are you like you put any cheese on it?
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I like salt, Oh, salt on the pie.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: I like a little salt. But I like a thin slice,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: But this is very good, right, thinner than this? Mm hm,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: like like a real thing? Yeah, okay, like just a
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: crispy Would you like crispy? Or do you like like
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: a like a like a foldable like this?
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I like it foldable. I mean I don't.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: I don't get caught up on that whole flop ship.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: You know, Oh if it flops, it doesn't flop.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: This is very New York. You're you're describing as a
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: very New York pie.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's where I'm from, Joe.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: You know, that's what is what you're accustomed to. But
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: in all of your travels, you weren't like, you weren't
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: enchanted by another style of pizza. No, I've been the
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: deep dish in Chicago. The deep dish is more of
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: a meal, it is.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: I actually like the Detroit style.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: The crispy edges.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a fan of that.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I'm a fan of that as well.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: I don't really consider deep dish like true pizza.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: It is good.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I like it, and I like Chicago.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I like the people.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: But you know when they try to say, oh, that's
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: real pizza.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: We got some more coffee.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Oh nice, what do we got there?
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: You got the chocolate strawberry. This is yeah, so this
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: is my coffee. This is your course. This is our coffee.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: My wife and I almoke. This is a chocolate cover strawberry.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know how it's gonna go with the pizza,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: but give it a shot. It should be very smooth.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: This is smooth. I thought I was drinking bourbon.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, nice, nice, not very strong, but well,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: so what do you mean by strong? I mean it
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: has a tea.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Like yeah, yeah, softer, it's softer.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: That's how coffee should be.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: It should be that way. Yes, it shouldn't be like
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: too black.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: If you if it's strong, you're it's it's probably not
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: prepared well, is my guess. Okay, likely So like if
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: you get an espresso and it tastes strong, it's because
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: it's too bitter. So either the extraction time is too quick,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: like it just comes out really fast, or the extraction
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: times too long it takes forever to dribble out. If
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: it's just right, it's super smooth. That's a pour over,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: so like he took it a lot of time. Back there,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: that's a boiling water.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Is that the same one on the site?
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: The same one? Yeah, same one there, the same color,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: same color. And as it cools down, it'll there'll be
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: different flavor notes that'll come out of that as it
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: cools down, as it starts to cool down, you'll get
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: different types of flavors out of it. But again, I
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: don't know how this delicious pot.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Doesn't go bad with the pizza.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Really, whatever reason?
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Okay, who would think seth Rowlins's coffee and a hot
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: honey what's the hell pepperoni would work? But somehow, somehow,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: you know what will go good right now? A nice
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: cold yingling. If me and you had a yingling right now,
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: we would be in heaven.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I'm looking around right Rose Avenue.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I don't think the last money cash in with the
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: belt that you know? How electric? Was that?
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Look at last time I won the world? So I
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: don't was at SummerSlam about nine months ago. Uh yeah,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I cashed in my money in the bank contract the
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: second time I've ever done it. Now. The first one
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: way back in twenty fifteen, sort of lives an infamy
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: in a good way. It's generally regarded as the greatest
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: cashion of all time.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Now, explain to me what the cash in is?
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Can you say? You?
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Can you actually cash in?
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: So once a year WW hosts an event called the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Money in the Bank. There is a ladder match that
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: takes place. Ladder match being there, in this case a
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: briefcase hanging above the ring. You have to set up
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: the ladder, scale the ladder and unhooked the briefcase. The
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: first person that does that takes possession of the briefcase
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: wins the match. Now, in that briefcase is a contract
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: for a World Heavyweight Championship match anytime, any place, so
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: you can cash that in for the entire calendar year.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: You can do it on a Sunday morning when he's
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: at church. You can do it on a Saturday afternoon
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: when he's hanging out by the pool. You can do
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: it anywhere you want. My first one back in twenty fifteen,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I decided to do it in the main event of WrestleMania,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: which WrestleMania is like our super Bowl, So this was
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the first time anybody had ever done that. I was successful.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Was my first world title. Flast forward eleven years. I've
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: got the money in the bank briefcase again, I've won
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the ladder match. How do I taught myself? Well, there's
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: this guy, his name's see him Punk, real asshole. This
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: guy he's got the world title. I got to get
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: it off of him, and I figure, well, I'll ruin
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: his moment. So he's got this match with Gunther at
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: rest at SummerSlam. Gunther's the champion. See him. Punk pulls
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: out this miraculous victory and defeats Gunther. He has the
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: world championship. In the middle of the ring. He's realized
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: is a childhood dream and my music hits. I come out.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I've been faking an injury for two months to get
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: people off the case, not think that I was a
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: viable threat. I came out on crutches. I planned the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: whole thing. I dropped the crutches. I run to the ring.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I take off the knee brace like I'm Forrest Gump,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: you know, sprint down there, bash Punk's head in with
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: the briefcase, bring the bell, stomp him in the back
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: of the hand, and cover him. Steal his title. It
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: was a glorious, beautiful moment. Yeah, as I'm reliving in now,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: it's even better, same time around.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: So this guy Punk, you don't seem to like him.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Is he a bit of a douche?
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I don't like him. A lot of people love him, Yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: a lot of people love him. He and I don't
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: get along. We don't see eye, do I. It's a
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: long history. He's got any long time rivals?
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah I do. Yeah, I know what you mean.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not a grudge holder. Really, I wouldn't consider myself
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: he rubbed it a long way. He's an exception to this.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Is he a phony? I would say so. Yeah, I
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: would say so. He's an interesting cab because if you
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: love him, a lot of fans of seeing punk out there,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: you believe and hang on every single word that he says. Right,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: But if you know the guy like I do, right, you.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Could see through it.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I see through all of it, right, you seek through
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: all the fakeness all and he would probably say the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: same thing about me, and he would say that about you.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Credit to him, I mean, he's I'll give him his
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: due in the sense that he's been a relevant figure
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: in our industry for over twenty years. He's been around right,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: a long long time. I mean, he was a guy
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: that I looked up to when I was trying to
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: get in the business. You know, they say, never meet
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: your heroes. He's a prime example of that. So yeah,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: I mean there's a there's certainly some bad blood there.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I think it would be it would be a tough,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: tough relationship to repair.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, maybe a better off this way.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: You know, not everybody's gonna love you or you're gonna
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: love them. It's okay, it's okay not to like somebody.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Let me get one more pipe, give me one more pieces.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Liking the pizza.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Are you happy he got the throne that WrestleMania.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: WrestleMania this year was a bit tricky for me, ma'am.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: So I tore my rotator cuff back in October when
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: I was holding that title. I lost it. I had
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: to give the title up. Didn't didn't get beating the
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: match for it. I had to forfeit it because I
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: had to go get surgery in the rotator, So I
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: was out for five months. In the interim, seeing Punk
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: wins the title, m takes it into WrestleMania and he's
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: wrestling in the main event. Mind you, my other rival,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: this fellow named Roman reigns. So you've got two of
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: my worst enemies fighting each other from my title in
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: my main event, and I have to I have to
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: watch it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: You have to swallow that.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I have to swallow that one. So it's really difficult
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: for me to feel any which way other than disgusted
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: by the result.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: You know, so there's no nobody can win there.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: So now Roman range is walking around my title talking
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: about how he made the title relevant, which is bullshit.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I'll just say it. It's complete bullshit. He knows it.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: I know it. Everybody else knows that he sounds like
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: an idiot when he says it.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: So's you can settle it.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Well, I got a score to settle with a young
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: cat named bron Breaker. Oh I'm dealing with right now.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: He's he's the guy who actually put me on the shelf.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: I'd hurt my shoulder initially in a match, and we
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: weren't sure if I was going to be able to
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: continue on or not. I thought you guys were exactly
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: and then he took it upon himself to pull the
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: trigger and he reinjured the shoulder pretty bad the next night,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: and that's.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: What caused the soldier.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: That's that one.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that one.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: It's all. It's good now we're back to it.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: And I kind of liked Braun.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's got it all man, you know what
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: He's explosive.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: He's an explosive kid. He got a big future ahead
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: of him. Yeah, and I look, he's a star. I
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: think he's I think he's a star. I wouldn't have
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: recruited him if if if do you think he was
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: a star?
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Well? Is this fixable between you and Braun?
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Or no? I mean, it's not personal It's very much
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: a business situation here. You know, it's classic tales, oldest time.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: He's a young guy who wants my spot, and I'm
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: the older veteran who's just not I'm not prepared to
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: step aside.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I think it's going to happen for you again.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Title. Yeah, I hope so man, Yeah, I mean I
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: think you.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Know you're just you're that guy, you know, and so
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: he's just somebody's occupying.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Your your your belt right now, that's right, you know
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: what I mean? But Braun is a he's a force
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: to be reckoned with.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: He's a real deal.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: I think in a couple more years he's going to
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: be pretty unstoppable. Yeah yeah, not even thirty years old yet.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Do you like Dirty Dom?
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Oh? Man? What's not to love about Tom?
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I love the kids.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Did you know I gave Dom his first match in
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: w W?
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: No?
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I did not, Yes, I did.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: I'm sure my son knows.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: It was SummerSlam twenty twenty. You gave him the match
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: SummerSlam twenty twenty. I believe it was Wow, COVID nobody
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: was there. We were an empty building, uh in Tampa
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: might even been the Engling Singer Center. I don't know
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: it was either Tampa's Orlando is one of these buildings,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: you know. We had the Thunderdome we called it, so
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: we had all these the screens with the people at
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: home on their screens like watching the show. It was
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Dom's first match. She was a white meat babyface, as
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: we say, just absolutely rain stereos kid doing the best
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: he can and to see what he's become now and
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: the most detestable, disgusting, you know, irredeemable character on our
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: television show Love. I love every second of it. He's
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: really really coming to his own he has in.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Your mind, in your opinion, what does it take to
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: be one of those guys, the top five guys like
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: you Reigns or punk of beside ability?
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: You know, I think one of the things that's really
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: underrated in top talent and you kind of look at
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: it through the history, is there's a level of I
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: feel you bro smelt the pizza. I think there's this,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: there's a there's a there's an intelligence that exists, there's
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: an understanding of people and how to read people, how
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: to read a room, and how to kind of manipulate
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: that reaction and that feeling that you look at guys
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: from all different eras and they have it, you know,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: and they may not be like traditionally the smartest guys
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: in the world, like you know, math scientists and type
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: of things, right, Like Dusty Rhodes was incredible at it
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: the American Dream. You look at Rick Flair, you look
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: at Bruno San Martino, you look at Stone Cold, Steve Austin,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: you look at the Rock, you look all these generations
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: triple h these guys, you know, in John Cenail, myself,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Roman reigned the common denominator. Aside from the desire for greatness,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: there's a hunger to like be at a level above
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: other people, right, there's an intelligence, there's like a no
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: a know how with a way to get people to
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: do what you want them to do. I don't mean
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: that in like a negative manipulative way, like I'm not
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: trying to trick you or anything like that. But I
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: understand what you want and what you don't want, and
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: how to make those things work in conjunction with each
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: other in the context of a story. And I think
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: that's that's a big thing that really I think separates
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: kind of that upper level from like the elite to
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: leagues right.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: I think I know what you mean when you see it.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Even though I'm not a hard hardcore resting.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Guy, but when you see certain guys, I saw you,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: I saw a CM punk, I saw rings.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, these guys, there's a reason why they
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: are where there are, you know what I mean.
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: They have something, they have something different, but you can
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: understand they're not They're not a one trip ponent.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: No, No, there's a versatility and it's.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Got to be deeper than just one thing.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Sometimes people go, I like when you do this, and
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: I yeah, but that's not all I do. If that's
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: all I did, then I wouldn't be that interesting, you know.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: And you wouldn't have been able to I mean, how
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: long is your.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Career then it wouldn't have been around for thirty years.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Thirty years. I would have came and went, yes, you know,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: so many flashes in the pan, right, and then they
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: come and go.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: And they come and go, you know. So, I mean
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: I agree with you on that. You happen to be
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: a big sports fan to love me you. I heard
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: you're a football guy.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: I'm a big football baseball guy.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: That's your team, The Bears, NU Bears, The Bears I.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: Can finally wear the hat in public now after many,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: many futile seasons, right, we finally got How long you
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: have been a Bears fan since I was a kid? Yeah,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: I mean you grew up.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got eighty five Bears?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Is that you say?
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: So?
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I was born in it nineteen eighty six, Okay, so
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: too young to know. They won the Super Bowl in
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: January eighty six and I was born in May eighty six.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: All I've seen is awful Chicago Bears teams minus the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: OA Super Bowl squad. You know, Devin Hester, Bryan or
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: lacker A, Lance Briggs, that crew. Rex Grossman was the
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: quarterback for the team. God bless him. Had no business
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: being in the Super Bowl. But the Yeah, I grew
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: up that way. So my my grandpa was a Bears guy.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: My dad was a Bears guy. So he's just in
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the blood. Yeah, he just gave it to me. I
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: had to deal with it. But but it's nice. We're
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: on the good side of things and seen North champs
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: as we speak sitting here.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well you got to get a title.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: But well, you know, we're doe. We're due, you know,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's been thirty one years. Right, so let's
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: let's get back. I know, let's get one. You know,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I like the Yankees where it's like every five years
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: we're in them, but.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: We haven't won many World Series in a longe time.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: It was the last World Series two thousand and nine,
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: one in twenty five years.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Is notice not really a great run?
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Wow? No, that's not good at all.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but they've become like very good not great. They're
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: sort of like Dallas Cowboys.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: In the way. Oh yeah, yeah, you know they used
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: to be great.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: You know. No, I don't want to be them. We're
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: still the Yankees, but we need them. I'm frustrated from
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: that point of view.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: I can see that.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because a lot of people are the Yankees win
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: every year. I'm like, that was a long time ago. Yeah,
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: that's history.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Do you think it's just the other teams have caught
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: up with their spending.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: In retrospect, it's the organization. They're just doing shitty work.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: And that's why they don't like guys like me because
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: I speak honestly, I speak from my heart. I have
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: no agenda other than I want.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Them to win. Yes, of course, So you know, if.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: They brought me in and said, hey, Nick, give us
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: your two cents. I could fucking help, but that's not
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: going to happen. So I feel I'm still going to
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: be a fan. I root for the uniform. It's nothing personal.
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: I get it, you know, so you understand you your team,
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: yeah man, and what you do commentating too.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I have been fortunate enough to be a part of
• 24:55

• 25:23
  Speaker 2: So you know they could bring you in you could
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: you can handle yourself?
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I can handle that stuff. I'm not a
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: complete moron.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: Right, And you're coming from a fans point of view,
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: like they brought me in a few times Fox and
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: knock it out of the park. But they think I'm
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: gonna go crazy and I'm like, no, I'm not gonna
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: go crazy.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: I didn't even have any rehearsal. But I don't need rehearsal. No,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: I live this shit every day. Yeah, it's in my
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: it's in my body, it's in my head, you know.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: So. And people are like more happy when I'm mad
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: or something. I'm like, I can't just be mad to
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: be mad, no, I gotta have a reason. Give me something,
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: give me something. Yeah. And then the other day I
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: was pissed off, people were happy. I was like, good,
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you're happy. I'm you're happy.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: I'm miserable.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're your misery brings.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Misery brings happiness. It's fucking weird. I'm like, oh, he's
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: so nice right now. What's wrong with them?
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: That's that's how it is with me. I a few
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: years ago, I started this thing on Twitter where if
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: the Bears would win, I would say I love football,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: and if they would lose, I would say I hate football.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: But nobody cared about the me loving football. They only
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: wanted me to hate the football. But they would wait.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: They would win every time the Bears would lose. In
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: this heartbreaking fashion, they would just wait for the I
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: hate football tweet they would wait for it. I've now
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: carried it over to threads because I left Twitter because
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: it's as cesspool. But but yeah, I still I still
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: love and hate football from week to week during the season.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Do you voice your opinion on a weekly basis? Do
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: you so when you're frustrated?
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Do you vent? I try to keep it and I try.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: I try to keep it as tame as I can
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: in the sense that I know what these guys go
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: through as far as the players right right, I know
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: what they respect, I know what they put No one's
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: going out there to stink the joint him. No, They're
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: doing the best they can and they're putting their bodies
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: on the line, right And I'm not in their shoes
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: and their cleats. I'm not the one.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: So you don't want to cross that line.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I don't want to cross that line. I'll be critical
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: if I'm on a show and I'm asked to give
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: your opinion stuff Rollins, what is your opinion on the
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns quarterback room? I will tell you what I
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: think about the Cleveland Browns quarterback room if I'm asked,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: But I'm not going to go out there and question
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: somebody's effort on any of these plays on social media.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: I mean some of that stuff is.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Is exaggerated, yes, of course, and some of it is
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: just frustration from a fans point of view.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like you know, you want to win so bad.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: It's like, what do we have to do to get
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: to get there and then get over the line?
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: What is it going to take? I guess that the
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: perspective I also have is and you might as well
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: as being someone in the public eye, is like you
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: see that come at you.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: For me, I see people on the other side of
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: that who know nothing about the wrestling business. Just Joe
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Schmoe from that restaurant over there, who watched the show
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and just has some opinion on it, and he doesn't
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: know the ins and outs of how it got to
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: that point. And sometimes if you over indulge in that
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: side of social media, it can be really negative for
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: your psyche. And I find that I don't want to
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: contribute that to these guys and these players. I try
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: my best to not do that, even if it's coming
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: from a place of goodwill. They don't know that all
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the yeah, you know, all they see is that negative
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: feeding that's right, and it can mess with you, and
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I know it messes with me. And I've gone through
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: stages in my career where I'm like, I'm looking for
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: some sort of validation and what I see is negativity,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: and I focus on that and it really affects me
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: in my day to day life. So I don't want
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: to be a part of that too much if I
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: don't have to.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Nobody wants to be viewed just as a negative guy,
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Just just this sometimes pisses
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: me up because it's like, I'm not just about that.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: I know when you win, I'm happy when you When
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: you fail, I think I fail, Like I might be
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: yelling something, but it's like, whether it's just a fight
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: or not, it's just emotion. That's You're just a sports fan,
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: you know. I mean, you're upset, so am I. So
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just I just break it down in
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: a way. I say things that a lot of fans
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: want to say, and because it's coming from somebody.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: That's maybe public, they go, oh, that guy is just
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: like me. I'm like, yeah, I am like you. I'm
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: just a fan. At the end of the day. I mean,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: I love you guys. It's nothing. It's not that I
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: don't like you, wouldn't want to have a beer with you.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: But if I'm screaming and yelling about something, it's not personal. No,
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: you understand that.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I understand it. Yeah.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: What's it like to work with The Rock?
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Oh? Man?
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: You know The Rock I met him recently was very
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: nice to me. I was a little star struck by
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: the Man, I have to say, you know, I was like,
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: big guy.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a stature Yeah, yeah, he's a big presence,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: is uh.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: The rest of the Rock in one of the main
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: events WrestleMania was pretty wild. I think it was one
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: of those things where, you know, when you get into
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: the business, I think, or any any sort of industry
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: like that, you kind of like, oh, what are my dreams,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: what are my goals? What are the things I would
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: love to do? And there's like a list of people
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: that you might want to get in the ring with.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: But The Rock was long retired before I got to WWE.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: You know, he'd been out of the game, hadn't wrestled
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: the match and us ten years at least. By the
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: time I got to WWE. I think he retired in
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: two thousand and two ish kind of did a little
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: bit after that, but I came in twenty twelve, you know,
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: so it was like, oh, that was not even in
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: my realm of possibility. So when he came back for
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: us leading into WrestleMania forty a couple of years ago
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: and kind of got involved in our story and it
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: became apparent that we were going to have this tag match,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: it was pretty shocking, and in a good way. I
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: was just so I was you know, what I was
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: interested in the most was his process. So I'm like,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: here's a guy who's done it all. He's done everything,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: not just in our business, but in Hollywood. This is
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: the biggest movie star in the world. Yeah, and he's
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: coming back to do a WrestleMania match with us. Like
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: why you know, what's what's your process? Why do you
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: want to do this? What are you thinking about? Is
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: we're putting the story together, and like, how does what
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: you've done now translate what we're doing here. It was
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: really fascinating. I got to know him on a bit
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: of a personal level as well, and that was extremely
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: beneficial for me. He's just such a good guy. Consider
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: him a bit of a mentor. Now. He was kind
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: enough to have my family and I to his Mawana
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: two premiere out in Hawaii. Brought us to the resort
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: there and we were able to hang out and see
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: the thing on the lawn. And my daughter, she's five,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: she love this. She's four at the time thought it
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: was the coolest thing in the world. So, you know,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: when you meet somebody like that who doesn't have to
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: do any of these things. He doesn't have to come
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: back to WW and wrestle, he doesn't have to offer
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: these types of things to you and your family, but
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: he does doesn't do anything for him and literally, you
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, it's nothing, there's no like return, investment,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: is no reason.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: No.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: He just because he's a good person, right, And I
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: think you know, people in his position get a bad
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: rap sometimes, and he himself gets a bad rap. It's
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: all bullshit. He's a good dude. He's a good guy.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: And I'm probably blowing off some heat here between me
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: and him, but he's a really good guy. And he's
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: someone i'd like to have with or in his situation,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: some tequila. He's turn to me too.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: I would even like to cuddle with him, you know
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: what I mean, because he's just a burly Yeah, yeah,
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: you know, we just cuddled together.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that would be awesome.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: He'd be a little spoon.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: That would be the little spoon. I'm okay being I
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: can't do that little spoon.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not for me.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: That's all right. I'm used to that. I had a
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: big brother.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I'm the little guy. I'm sure with my manhood, so
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: I don't worry about.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: That, you know what I mean calling me out here.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: You're a good guy being that you're a creative guide.
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: Now you get the coffee thing, you get the NFL,
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: you're champion wrestler.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: And what else is what else is in the pike
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: for Seth Rowlins? What else do you want to do?
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: What else? What are the goals or what other things
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: that you know you aspire to do?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: God, man, that's a good question. You know. I've always
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: taken the approach of like, do what you love right,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: you know, and whatever you want will come back to you.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: I find that's I've never put like huge priority on like, oh,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: what's the most amount of money I can make from
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: a thing? I got into wrestling because I loved that
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: it was just something that gave me purpose and meaning
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: when I was a young man. It gave me like
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: a space from any of the chaos that was around
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: my life when I was a teenager, and I wanted
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: to be able to provide that for young men and
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: women as I got older as well, you know, And
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: so the fact that I've been able to do that
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: on a global scale has been incredible. At this point,
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: I'm a father, you know, my daughter's five, So I
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: just want to be the best dad I can be,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: trying to be a great husband and my wife be supportive.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: There the football thing. I love football, so I want
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to talk about football. What the ceiling is for that?
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: I have no idea. Coffee shops, the coffee brand amo
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: the same thing. Like I love coffee. I just want
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: to give it to people. Here's the thing that I love.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: I want you to have it. I want you to
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: experience it the way that I do. You know, And
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: if that's not for you, that's awesome, But I love it.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Maybe you can love it too. But I think for
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: me for talking about creative endeavors in the future, like
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: wrestling is my thing, that's the thing that has given
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: me the opportunity to even have this conversation with you,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: to be drinking my coffee, to have this action figure,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: to be able to be married to the girl that
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I'm married to, or Becca Plane, Becky Lynch, the greatest
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: of all time, like she's you know, I wouldn't have
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: met her if it wasn't for this business. We wouldn't
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: have our kid, if it wasn't for this, wouldn't been
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: able to buy my mama house. If it wouldn't for this,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: we'll be able to take it. All of it is
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: due to professional wrestling and the relationship I built with that,
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: And so for me, I do feel like my long
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: term future is in WWE. And again, I'm turning forty
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: this month, so I'm certainly not at the end, but
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I'm much closer to the end in the beginning of
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: my entering career. And then after that, who knows. If
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: there's a position open in an executive spot, I wouldn't say.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: No to it, right, That's a great answer. I mean,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: the guys living his dream what I wanted them to say, dream,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: he's living his dream too.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Get a shot of that guy. I like about you.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: Not only are you a star, You're a regular guy,
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: could have a beer with, could have a slice with.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: You know, you were a champ, You're going to be
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: champ again.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: I mean you made a living at what you love
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: to do and that and that's that success. I mean,
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: it's not about how much money, you're right. I mean,
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: no nobody ever chases the money.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: You chasing the dream, you know what I mean, that's
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: what you got to chase.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, even like with this, I'm like, I started
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: doing it and now I'm doing it and it's paying
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: something I don't know. So you know, because you're doing
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: it from a good place, that's it. Yeah, that's true.
