I think he can hear you, Ray.
They should do an oral history like they did with Saturday Night Live (Which is an amazing book), just of stories about Vince and his madness. He's an absolutely fascinating character, and most of the WWE is just his id run wild. Huge jacked men, divas, little guys being no good. There's complexes abound.

What was the point of punk being on that recent art of wrestling episode?

"Grumble grumble loving creepy fans taking a picture of me in public they think I don't see them but I do"

Then he says he's got nothing to say and bails. I don't know if he came back at any point on that show because I couldn't handle the guy Colt had on after him and turned it off.

They may have been recording in Punk's house, which Colt does from time to time.

I tried listening and it sounded like Prazak had interesting things to say but his audio kept cutting out and in the end I had to give up. Colt did warn about that earlier in the show and said he was trying to get it fixed, but by the 200+ shows point I would have thought he had stuff like this figured out.

He's just doing what he wants when he wants to.

He probably wasn't recording in his normal spot then? Usually the quality is pretty good but occasionally he screws up, i.e. the live Cleveland show.

Or was that just the opening?

That was just the opening. The mic cutting in and out was due to a faulty microphone cord he's since replaced.

Yeah that's why I just turned it off. There were some areas that were so bad that you missed entire sentences and stuff and it was pointless to try to figure out what the guy was saying.

But poo poo happens I suppose. No big deal. I only checked the episode out thinking Punk might actually say something interesting after having kept his silence for so long since it was his best friend's podcast or whatever and he usually talks more candidly when there.

Just him complaining about the horrors of being famous as usual. Sure people are weird and rude but that tends to happen if you're a public figure for over a decade and he knew wrestling fans were weird long before he got rich off of them.

This was mostly checking in on Rey. Nothing like the Jericho interview and no news other than lot more reiterating that he's pretty much done with wrestling.

Court says ADR is in the works. If he's not keeping quiet because of lawsuits that should be a hell of a show.

Considering ADR pretty much publicly told WWE to blow him it should be interesting, unless Konnan tells him not to say certain things that'll get him sued or something

I love it when they go "Don't worry about it, keep your head down and you'll be back in sixth months" and the talent goes "whatevs man, I'll make more money on the indies now!" or "blow me I'm going off to Mexico"

I try to avoid anything MLW except the Talkin Shop and Jim Cornette stuff. But the few times I've listened, I really want to know what Konnan's beef with Isis is. Like all I know is someone dropped some poorly lit nudes of her and she was done with WWE. Also her matches were pretty awful.
