The volume. Here we go, We're here on the sessions. I feel like I'm kind of do I sound like I'm whispering. I feel like I have a wiga spring essence right now because where I've moved to recording is directly above my daughter's room, which is asking for trouble because she's in bed. She's not sleeping right now, but she's rattling around. We'll just see what happens. Plus, John's not home, so if shit hits the fan, it's on me. There's definitely like a little sultriness in the voice right now, Like, well maybe because I'm just like tired and set up too, you know. Well, I mean it's a guest honestly though. Okay, so let me just like preface this. So Emilio and I we both have our Taco Bell bags because Emilio has never had Taco Bell, which is fucking absurd to me. So we're going to put a stop to that today. But I would like to preface this by saying I'm a team player because I'm embarking in this journey with you. Okay, I have been cooking all day, Yeah, all day, I've been shooting cooking content for the old foody Friday. It's not a real cooking show segment that I started doing. So I've been cooking all day. I'm sort of over food right now. But we need a podcast episode, and we promised the last time we did the Brene and Emilio Show that we would do it. So I postmates uber eated, uber eated, uber eatst. How would you say that, I would say, I uber ate it. I uber ate it so that it's here, It's here, I'm ready to go. It's it's warm lukewarm. At this point, you went to actual drive through to do this. Oh, I wanted the whole experience. So I had to google where a taco bell was because I did not know where they like it. Obviously they're a thing everywhere, but in New York they're not too hard to track down. No, I think you can throw a rock and get a Taco Bell and a Kentucky Fried Chicken and a McDonald's. I mean, you know what I mean, I just eat it. Shit. So it was the first time ever. You're gonna shit your pants, probably because you don't put this filth in your body, so you're probably going to get a little cleansing moment out of this. That's what my good buddy Joe Shoe said, because I also consulted him on what to get as well. So who is Joe Shoe? Why is he? Why does he get to weigh in on what your body eats? Because Joe Shoes is a competitive food vloger and he has a really funny YouTube show where he reviews food and he's also part of the major pod network as well. Shout out to Cardona and Myers. Got it, Sorry guy, I didn't know, and he likes all things disgusting food, And I asked him, Shoes, I'm doing this for the first time. What should I get? Well? First of if he abused me, and he was like, what type of fucking childhood did you have? And I was like, actually true, I'm with them on that. I don't know. And then the second thing he told me was all right, you have to get a grilled cheese beef burrito things. So I got the Mexican pizza, I got a taco, and then I got whatever this is. So when we decide to eat this ship and muck bang and just talk and eat at the same time, I'll give you a review. I'm a little bit bummed about two things. One, I'm bummed that they don't have the nacho fries in season right now, which I think is like, what's the fucking monopoly on these fries? Like they're so good. I truly think that they rival any other fast food joints fries, But they like dangle the carrot that they only release them like twice a year or something, and we just so happened to be in a null period. Well, I think that's why. I think they want you to go and spend your money on these specific fries, just like how they do with the McRib. As a loyal Taco Bellian, I should be able to order off the menu. I think there should be a specific menu and a point system for specific Tacobellian. Yes, yes, did you get any hot sauce with your tacob of course? Did the talk about hot sauce fucking slaps? Well, this is you. You spoke so highly of it, and I'm like, all right, all right, I guess I will have to do whatever Honey does, and I'm gonna eat the same way. I think we should just start. Oh. I would also just like to say, this is sort of like my food blessing to my body. I understand fat lords that are watching down at me. I know that I'm riding this thing like a fucking lightning bolt. Right now, I'm going to tidy up my diet. I don't mean for it to be like this. We needed the content. Should I just have chicken and broccoli right now? Yeah? Of course, but we need the content. I'm having the Taco Bell. What do you want from me? I want the fat gods to know that I know, and maybe they will spare me. I worked out today and went right to Taco Bell, So I feel like a big hypocrite. And you know me, I'm a real picky, finicky eater. So this is it's you being a hypocrite. See. I feel like when you did the when you do the workout, and I know everyone says you get abs in the fucking kitchen whatever, but you already at least burned the calories. I stood all day and like listen, I wasn't sitting around doing nothing. I've literally been going all day. But I didn't work out work out in a traditional sense. So I don't know, man grasping at straws here, I just want the fact gods to be gentle and kind to me. I think they will be. I think they're going to kiss your forehead and say listen for the betterment of the podcast and for the listeners. Since we promised this, we're not going to let this go straight to your ass um I'm just gonna open this bag and see what do you want. You want to start with the Mexican pizza first. I want to start with this. I want to start with the Soft Taco Supreme. Okay, did you get the cinnamon twists? By the way, no, they didn't have it. I'm going to a little cinnamon twist. Don't do it like this is the ASMR of everybody ready, Oh my god, you have no idea. Probably the weird Day got to come out now. They're going to be like, oh I wish I was that little squiggily cinnamon. Want to be a cinnamon twist. Twist my cinnamon, Twist my cinnamon. If her Wicked Wiki Feet does numbers, this is going to do numbers. Let's get the number. Okay, So okay, I'm going to be a traditionalist, a purist here, I mean, which I guess with the Soft Taco Supreme has been on the menu. The reason why I love a soft Taco Supreme. Just a little backstory, And I think actually the reason why I love Taco Bell is that my dad used to take My dad would pick my brother and I up from elementary school on like Wednesdays or some shit, and he would take us to Taco Bell on our lunch break, and I would always get a soft Taco Supreme. So I think there's probably some like deep rooted, ingrained thing in me that just loves a soft Taco Supreme. It's a very happy, nice memory. Hey listen, I get it because it's connected with texts, and text is a fun brother. And yeah that's that. And here you go for all our ASMR folks. Oh yeah, I get in there. I'm gonna I'm just digging for my hot sauce. I was gonna just have it straight up, which my first bite will be that. But I just want a little hot sauce on the back burner too. So this is this is where we're folks. Okay, I got a little mild, I got the hot, I got the Diablo. I've not had the Diablo. Actually, I wondered how that's gonna affect my butt. Oh it's gonna it's gonna come out like hot lava. I'm disgusting. I've been like I've recently recovered from food poisoning. Now I'm eating taco bell again. I'm just riding this shit into the fucking ground. Hey listen, you've been married six years. Happy anniversary, thank you. Okay. Oh, I also added how lapino to this. So I've never ordered taco bell from Postmates or from Uber Eats. I didn't know how much you could alter. Ye, that's what it's supposed to look like. That's it right there. Yeah, so the thing that makes it it's supreme is the strip of sour cream. By the way. Um, but I added how lapino rings to mine. I've never done that before. I think I'm really elevating my experience. Oh, your butthole's gonna be puckered, brother, After this, I was so excited. Okay, you're ready, Okay, yep, here we go. Cheers one, two, three, cheers. You get a hard taco Yours is hard. Yeah, they fucked up my order. They didn't even give me the the sauces that I wanted to either. I'm never going back there. No, I don't say that it was fine. It was poppa. I didn't know. It was like talk about lines are always busy. Every time I passed the talk about drive through, it's like slam. They were like blasting music like they were playing its rain and men on the speakers outside. Like the place looked like trendy. I was like, what is this place? That's what I want you in California. I think the hell opinion goes really elevate this experience for me. I love it. This is um I mean taste like meat. Yeah, I mean a grade of meat, some version of meat. I'm putting the hot sauce on it here too. I'm what a hot sauce kick right now? We shouldn't be what type of hot sauce I just did? I did the right hot version of Taco bellt sauce. No, I'm talking about oh in real life. You know what I had today? This is so basic. I just had fucking Tabasco sauce. I have not had Tabasco sauce and so long. So when I was cooking stuff today, I was one of the videos I did was making a caesar, which is like a Canadian bloody mary um and you add um tobaut. I used tabasco. You kind of use whatever hot sauce you want. But that's what I had on hand, and I've not had it in so long, and it really kind of lit my world up. It was good. I thought you would have had um Ryan Loco's chili flakes. M that's a different kind of party. Those are so good. Oh, the cats coming in for the hot sauce. You want to see this? That monster is cat. He's coming in the hot sauce. Who's attacking it? I wonder what his ship would be like? Disaster? Mm hmm. Okay, So this wasn't so bad. It's not bad. There's nothing to dislike about it. There's no offensive flavors, nothing's gonna linger. It's not only gets like riddled with a ton of like raw onions or some shit. No, because when we said we were going to do this and then I'm in Los Angeles, yeah, I'm getting I'm eating badia tacos like the legit ones. I'm like, how am I going to do this next week? Yeah? But here we are. I'm going to cleanse the pala with my favorite water. Here's my thing with Taco bell. So as I kind of prefaced and bitched Right before we started that, I was like, I shouldn't be eating this. I thought. I was like, I'll do it for the show, but I'm only going to really have a bite and then I'll go eat something healthy off camera. Piece of shit. I'm eating the whole thing, all right, you lie to yourself. It's okay. I just I love it. I'm drawn to this taste. I love it. Well. I got news for you. You know who's a big taco bell person? Who? And how come you've never had it? Then? Because we never had it in our childhood. This only developed for her a few years ago. I guess after she did the whole menopause thing. She was like, I like Taco bill now, oh yeah, okay, So I'm like, all right, do you do you? Boom? You should have taken her a drift through with you. No, she was like, I'm not eating that ship now. Maybe next weekend. Oh my god, this is so Honestly, the hallapenos in here have made this really an elevated time. I wish you would have consulted me with the hallapenos because I would have gotten No. Until I ordered it online, I've never done it in person. I ordered online. I was like, wait, there's all these different sauces. I think, who would you get? I added nacho cheese sauce to mine too, you sassy little bitch, bitch. Unbelievable. Wow, So what would you rate that? Like on a scale from at? Okay? I would give mine a solid eighth. I would change a thing about mine. And I'm eating it cold, Okay. I like that. I have like a little languor bite of heat happening right now. Yeah, because of the because of the hot sauce or the halapeens are a little red right now. There you go, get them the nice and Poppa for TV this week. All I have is a diet coke on me, which really just accentuates the heat. It makes it worse. I think there's like a certain mountain dew that is only at Taco Bell that people love. Isn't that the Baja Blast? Yes? Is that only a Taco Bell? Is that an exclusive? I think it? I again, my Taco Bell knowledge is very amateur at best, So all our Taco Bellians please let us know if the if the Baja Blast is only a Taco Bell exclusive. So I've decided to cleanse my palate with my favorite water lillam, I know, baby steps with me, baby steps, then we can I'll try chick fil at for the first time and now and now you're back. Now. I shouldn't react like that because I've only had chick fil A for the first time quite recently. Okay, it's also worth the fucking hype. Well maybe we'll maybe we'll do that on an episode. Worth the hype. Every time I pass once it's not as crazy as you know talk about. Their line is not as crazy as U Chick fil A. But every time I pass when it deters me because I'm like, the line's too big. I don't need any chicken sandwich. I don't wait in the line for anything. I'm not interested. Nobody makes baby weight on anything. Round Braddy, I'm impatient. Oh, I mean, you know it is what it is. You're a woman that does not want to wait for her food. I get him. I wanted the experience. I needed the experience. I needed to go to the drive through. I needed to hear its raining men. I needed to see that what the hype was, it was a whole big kitten koboodle. I was disappointed they didn't give me the they were out of the cinnamon twist gimmicks. I was like, son of a bitch, I have an abundance of them. There's well, maybe in Cincinnati they ain't eating them as much as they didn't stop Niel. I don't know them. So do we want what do you want to do next? I'm gonna do the burrito? Or do you want to do the pizza? Do we save the pizza for last? I want you to have the burrito now and then we'll do the pizza because I don't have a different thing. I don't have a third item. You go, asmar There's cinnamon sugar all over my microphone right now. So this one was a shoe. How many people have already stopped? Those snakes are like this is disgusting. No, I guarantee you. They're like all listening and they're tingling. Look at this thing. Oh my goodness, look at that that grill. That is a cheesy That is a cheesy blend right here, my friend, that's a sexy little number. Do you do your own burritos? Do I? What? Do you make your own burritos? No? I'm actually not a huge burrito person. It's too much for me. It's too heavy. That's a lot of like, it's dense, it's very heavy. I'm not gonna lie this is this was a This was a Joe Shoes pick. So if I if I don't like it, we can say fuck off to Shoes on his Twitter. And there is a great there's a great burrito place in Toronto called Burrito Boys and they're fish burrito. I used to fuck with that back in the day. Big time. You're leaving like a bar late at night, Burrito Boy, shout out, what the fuck is in this name? I don't know if you ever had one? I stick? What is that? What is that? Oh? Oh it's a tortilla strip. Yeah, spicy tortilla strip. I don't know about the tortias. Here's the thing that I don't like about. Um. I don't need extra things like that in my burrito. Like I actually don't like potatoes in my breakfast burrito. Just give me the eggs, give me the meat, game and the cheese, a little pico de guio, a little walk something. What do you think you know what's really good? Okay, this is really good beef grasp no, um, steak. Oh, I'll show you a piece look at that or whatever. Whatever this whatever it looks like. I don't know if she doesn't look that appetizing, to be honest, but which is good? Though better than the soft Chacoa Supreme? You can be honest, I'm not going to be offended. I didn't invent the soft Tacoa Supreme. No, they're just to the different tastes, sure, of course, but I still need you to rank them. I'm not asking you to play nice nice here. I want you to be cut throat in the Taco Bell world. Yeah. Well, if I'm gonna order something, I'm definitely doing this burrito gammick. Okay, there we go. I could tell that you lit up a little bit. Yeah, because this is also a little dorito chip in there too. Oh that's a nice touch. What if it was cool Ranch, Cool Ranch would be nice in there? Huh? That would be a game changer. Honestly, I'm not gonna would be nice. I think we have to get the chefs of Taco Bell on the show and be like, hey, why's you put a cool interesting in it? They're probably really hard to track down. I would imagine, like, I don't know who's coming up with this menu. I would love to see you come up with a Taco Bell menu, I would add hallapeno rings to everything. Clearly, I love pickled halapenos. Oh my god, so dealish. It was this our version of a muck bang. I don't know, I guess so I've never really muck bang before, kind of did once and the last time I did with with Del Taco. So I'm a taco gal. You really are, normally I do. I wouldn't put myself in that category, but I think evidence has proven otherwise. Now here's a question for you, if you have to choose one for the rest of your life. Are you doing Del Taco? Are you doing Taco Bell? No, No, that's not even a question. It would be talk about. I wouldn't even blink. I don't understand the hypo Del Taco. But again, it's good. It is good. So I think people talk shit about Del Taco. I've never heard someone hype it up a day in my life. That's why I was like, are people eating this? Let me try it? And I was actually pleasantly surprised. What I will say about Del Taco, though, is that they've got a good menu that they have like burgers, They've got chicken sandwiches, like they're not just burritos and tacos and all that shit. You know who's a big burrito person or buddy etour is he? And every time that it has to be right. But it is a specific place that he goes to. I think it's called hand charos or pancharos. Okay, it's this one specific place every time that he goes to I guess Iowa where he went to college, and he sings this places praises where this is the only thing. If he's there for four days, he's eating burritos for four days straight. I like that. So we should have much to talk about it. Do you think that Colin Cowherd is so annoyed that we're just doing and that there's up to this point there has been no sports talk. We can have some, We can dabble some in to keep Uncle Colin happy. We probably should. Hey, look, the Yankees have beaten the Baltimore Orioles and the Tampa Bay Rays are on a I think by the time this airs a nine or ten game winning streak. I could be wrong. They're at eight right now. So I'll keep I'll keep this food and sports oriented. Today I did a video where I tried a bunch of different Skyline things, and I called out Joey Votto, who has played for the Reds for like sixteen seasons or something crazy like that, he's never had it. Now, the whole entire city of Cincinnati is up in arms. But this man, my fellow Torontonian, that's just not even willing to try the chili. So I'd just like to start shit on the internet. Hop rough, no I invite, I said, listen, I will bring you Skyline. I will meet you in a parking lot. You can come over to my house. I can, I'll come down to the stadium. Whatever you want. I'll just need you need to have it for the people I'm trying to help you help them. I answer a question for Uncle Colin because he's been he's a workout nut, and he said he's been the same waistline since college. He said that on this show. Do you think he would eat this ship with us? Absolutely not? Or do you think he's more of a surf and turf wagoo steak kind of guy. I think he is a protein and veggie guy. That's what I think he would. There's no way he would stoop to our level, right, now well, he Scott nice. This is as I'm eating this, there's a kick good. He was getting more and more spicy. Here. I'll talk a little sports, well some wrestling while you eat your burrito. Um. I am thrilled about a few things, specifically that we get to take a w to London into Wembley. Holy shit, I'm so pumped for that. Like, not only do I love just getting to go over to London, but every time I have we've always done the O two, which is a fucking awesome, awesome arena, so cool, Like I love that arena. I love that, Like that arena is familiar to me. Um, but I am super pumped to go check out Wembley and see what that's all about. Um, I don't I don't know what the capacity is it? Holy shit. Yeah, and that's updated too, because they updated the arena where you see No, I cannot wait to go over and check that out. Um. I'm excited for like for Sorea, for Jamie or like you know, all the Brits to get that moment to like really wow. Also adding in I'm so pumped that Nigel mcg is now all elite, that Nigel is like going to be doing commentary for Ring of Honor whatever other hats the guys going to be wearing. But like what a get do you know? He was one of my favorite Ring of Honor performers when I was a wee lad going. Everyone loves Nigel. I mean Nigel is like Nigel. I don't know that he gets all of the credit, which is no, you don't. The only thing that I would actually love to do for a ew and for Ring of Honor, you know, everything that falls under that umbrella. I want to talk to Tony about this because I would love to do features on people like a Nigel, like a Samoa Joe, all these like claudio casting Njolie like I want to for newer fans that are maybe less familiar with their catalogue with why these guys are your favorites favorites. I would love to do features like that to just like update because there's so many younger fans. If you weren't watching however long ago, you don't know why every I mean, of course you can still see that these guys can't go. I mean, Nigel's not wrestling, but like these other guys I just mentioned, you can see how talented they are you understand why they're great in the ring, but to go back through their catalog and understand, like some of the rivalries that they've had, how they changed what professional wrestling is like. I would love to do features like that as far as I'm concerned. Ring of Honor changed the current landscape of professional wrestling the way we see it twenty years ago when they were signing guys like McGinnis. Because I was at that last Ring of Honor show when Brian and McGinnis wrestled, It was at the Hammerstein Yeah, and they were both going to they were both going to the Fed brother Yeah. And then for whatever reason, Nigel didn't. Nigel didn't and Brian became Brian. But I was there to see the rise of a young Tyler Black who would become Seth Rollins, Roderick Strong. I'm Ricky, Yes, m r ip to to Jay Briscoe did Briscoe Brothers an absolutely favorite team, the Kings of Wrestling. I produced the Kings of Wrestling theme song. Do you know how crazy it was to hear the theme song that me and my buddy co produced and hearing out on pay per views and TV was crazy? Is cool and let's take one quick pause. Norris flipping out one second. Sorry, Hey guys, thanks for coming to hang out here on the Sessions. A friendly reminder that you can hang out with me more than one place, because I'm also on AMP. Just download the app. Come hang out with us Tuesdays and Thursdays eight thirty pm Eastern Time. Let's get a little more Sessions in your life. We all need it. Okay, we're back. I've not stopped recording on my end. M guys, this is parenting. This is what happens. You've got a kid, You've got a podcast to do, the kids doing the podcast. Now, that's how we roll. Here. She's like staring at the computer right and I'm like, what is happening? Why am I here? I was wondering the same thing. He's like, what is this guy eating? I know, I'm Michael. A little attempt to give her cinnamon twist to just do what happens? Oh yeah, give her one to what she says. She sheds like she talks. I mean she kind of does. See if she'll take it bus, she'll throw it in disgust. You want to try sign interest, I try you a bit it right? It do you think they're good. I think she approves, I think she apprus All right, oh okay, I will let her much on that cinnamon twist and we'll keep talking about this unor situation. No, it's it really is cool, like what you were saying, to the point of, like you rattle off all these different names and some of them ever you know some of them. Of course, we all know every one's history. But depending on your level of fandom of what product do you happen to be watching at a certain time, you might not be educated. Yes, of course, all the informations out there and it's on the internet and you can do a deep dive on something for sure. But I would love to like provide the service of like let me download you real quick, because this is what you need to know and understand. Right, here's what I would love, right, I would love to hear Ryan Danielson, Christopher Daniels and low Key talk about the first main event at the first Ring of Honor pay per view. Yeah, that's what I want to hear. I want to hear Samoa Joe talk about wrestling Kenta Kobe Ashi. It's it's it's one of my favorite Samoa Joe matches of all time. Like, I just feel like, if if we're gonna nerd out on wrestling, let's just lean into it, you know, like, let's go for it. Let's just get into the nitty gritty. I would love to like moderate some of those conversations even produce it. Like I've talked about this before, but like I do love the idea of even just being able to produce stuff. I don't have to be on camera for it and like just to I don't know, I think it's an incredible idea, right. I would love to hear Claudio and Chris Hero talk about, um, you know what they did against the Briscoe's and when Noah came in and worked with Ring of Honor. I would love to hear about that stuff. I would love to hear about I mean, c him Punk versus Raven had one of the most like bloodiest matches in Ring of Honor history. I would love to hear about um, Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero doing the Havada pickle. And you know what would be cool too, And I doubt that this would happen, but given the fact that m A and he just did the Dusty Rhodes Special and you got to see Dustin Rhodes on there and he thanked Tony for having let him do that. Like, why can't we get seth on to talk about those matches and like get some of you know, get aj on. Can we get aj styled on to talk about some stuff? Like I think that would be really cool. You know, I think you have to because these individuals was so pivotal to the early part of the development of Ring of Honor. It was this little indie that could and this was before the big indie boom, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, Like this was the This was the one where I feel companies like PWG and GCW walk and run where Ring of Honor had to crawl to begin with. Yeah, And if you think, I think like, like, of course, we we know the identity of Ring of Honor, but I think Ring of Honor's identity under the AEW umbrella. I think it's it's kind of finding it's footing with whatever the future is going to continue to be with this rollout, as you know, they continue to do different shows and blah bity blah blah. I think that it Yeah, it would just be really cool to uh, to really lean into that stuff and lean on the history, because if you're right, it is it's like it really is like the blueprint for a ton of stuff. You know. Everybody talks about um Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane and the fight for everything, but the fight for everything started at Ring of Honor and when it was l Generico and Kevin Steen. Yeah, and to really I think really hone in on those things as well. To me, it's important. I think I would love to and I and every time I do see him backstage, I try not to annoy him with wrestling questions, but I'll like say hi to Brian and I'll be like, hey, Brian, so why could you tell me real quick what the mindset was going into wrestling Barashima? And he'll stop what Rene, He'll stop in his tracks, get really excited, and then like like talk to me for ten minutes about this specific thing and then get pulled into another direction, and I'm just sitting there like this, yeah, wow, yeah, yeah. No. It is so cool when you look at like what just about the history as of all that stuff, and I think it's really cool for you know, a bunch of the guys and you know, girls' names that we can rattle off. Is I think that those are some some matches and like pieces of work that everyone's really proud of in a time when like wrestling was just you know, the thing that they love to do. And not saying it's not the thing now, but it's times change and circumstances change. It's kind of fun to go back to like those good old heyday Absolutely, you know, it's cool. Absolutely because to me, and again this might sound like a hot take, but I think the quote unquote developmental system of the Black and Gold when it first started was a Ring of Honor adjacent. I mean, you know, man sorry said on my podcast Wrestle Rap that there was talks about buying Ring of Honor and making it a product of WWE before NX. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean, like you said, like you look at those names, I mean from the from the jump even. I mean obviously Tyler Black bring him in as Seth Rollins, I mean, he was such a big name for that. But having guys like like Adam Cole and you know, there's just there's so many different names of guys that you can see what they've been able to do and stuff that they've been able to do. Right. But I want the little stories too, write like I want like individuals like Prince Nana, who was there from the beginning. I like that guy. He's great Nana. You know what, we should have Nana on the I like him. He's like a good vibe. I feel like he's one of those people. Every time I passed in the hallway, I'm like, yeah, you're a good vibe. He's a he's a great vibe. He pulled up to walley Mania and his his smile and just his vibe infectious. He's he's cool, not as the guy. Yeah, so she likes it, hush, she likes the cinnamon twist. Do you like a cinnamon twist? Baby? You got cinnamon sugar all over your fingers? Now? Yea? What do you say? Please tell me you guys heard that. Oh we did. Now you have to reward her with a treat for being a polite baby. There you go, honey, again, this is what parenting is it. Should she be having sugar cinnamon twists at nine pm when her she was supposed to be well asleep. No, I don't recommend it, but hey, we're do what we gotta do. We gotta finish doing an episode here, Johns. Does she deserved it for being polite? Yeah? You sweet girl, honey with her semi little bob, her little face. You're so cheeky. She's had a fun h day. You've been eating good today? Huh because mamma was in the kitchen cooking all day. Did she the benefits she did? She did for her standard stuff. I got her Easter bunny, got her a bunny basket, the books, the the eggs, some of them had some candy and um manne go crazy and we did a little Easter egg hunt, which she crushed. I was going to ask, how was that? Yeah, it was great. She loved She loves to like put things into other things, so she was like thrilled to be doing that outside. How was Easter for you? Oh? You know church Italian food like bange cook like she was going for an army, but there was only four of us in the house. Love it. What was the dessert situation? She made a five layered chocolate cake with it was delicious. Um And I gave up sweets for Lent too, So for forty days I didn't do anything. Okay, I was just gonna say a stupid question. But it's forty days. Lent is forty days. It's yeah, it's forty days, Yeah, forty days and forty nights. The old Josh I love that movie. Yeah, I know he's talking about what's her name? Black Hawk down from He was in everything in in Uh he was, yeah, he was like, he was the heart grob. He was in um Virgin Suicides. He was in a ton of stuff. What is Josh Harte is jo It's Josh Hartnet, Josh something. Yeah, Josh Hartnet. Oh my god, my mic is literally covered in cinnamon sugar right now. It looks like cinnamon toast crunch exploded everywhere. Are you living your best life right now? But you're just saying, please, no, you can't have more babies. Well, now she understands, she understands what Pavlog's dog like, you know Pavlog's dog is. Now she's like please because now she wants another one. Well, hopefully John will hurry up and get home and relieve me of this double duty that I'm currently i'man like. I think listen, I think the listeners are enjoying us talking about Ring of Vanna wrestling and and the baby eating cinnamon twists. I mean, this is if this isn't content, I don't know what you people want. He Look, we've given you John Moxley. We've given you Kenny Omega. We've given you a Bella Twin, We've given you a Barbie Blank, We've given you a Samoa Joe. Tons of people you could sit here and watch us enjoy the revelry of a child eating cinnamon for the first time and saying please, please please, You're cute. Um. You know what I want to talk about too? While we're on here and we're rattling off names of guests that we've had, Um, is I guess to put together a little bit of a wish list? Yeah, I know who I would like. I'm sure you've got a bit of a list of people that you want. I want. I want to know what the people want? Is I mean, I know I kind of throw that in sometimes on like the intros and the outros, to like, you know, get a little inspiration or something. But you know who's actually tippy top of my list and he's already been a guest. Um, But I would like to do a revisit with Eddie King, so I knew it. It's funny. Well, you and I had been talking briefly when we were both kind of going over some names of like who we should get, what kind of conversations we want to have and all that, and um, yeah, Eddie comes to mind because when we had Eddie on, I really didn't know Eddie. I knew him as John's friend, and honestly, I think he was just kind of doing me a favor. Where now I know Eddie and I would like to have him on and push his buttons and have a good conversation. Well. I think one of the fun things too, is to remember, if we're going back into Sessions history, he was episode eight. He was our eighth episode. Wa we yeah, we were brand new. Yeah, Oh my goodness, we were crazy. We were brand new. Oh I did not, So he was definitely doing us a favor him. And and and Tony was an early episode. He was on really early too. I would actually love a little Tony. Let's get Tony on and talk about my pitch. Come on, I'll just pitch shit me out, boss. I just put some idea you could put them on the spot, right, I will just be like, hey, why don't we do that? And he'll be like, sure, great, do it. Just yeah, right, that's the way to do it. Just put someone on the spot and go please, please, can you do this? But yeah, I would love to have Eddie back on you like Uncle Eddie. Yeah. No more, honey. You see she does sign language. This is more. I didn't know that. Yeah, how does she learn that? What does Miss Rachel? Any parent listening to this, I'm sure you know who Miss Rachel is. So she does these YouTube videos called like Songs for Littleles or something like that. Um, and she basically taught Nora a ton of words, taught her sign language. So she does sign language for more. She came up to me today she goes, eat eat, I wanted to eat. I was like, oh my goodness, sure, yeah that's what you want? Eat more? Just eat? How do you do more? I'm obsessed with her? Oh my, I can't even. You just make me want to go into Marty pants. You just make me want to go it and pregnate somebody to have a good You should they're cool. But you made right, But you made right. But yours was made by design, and wantne would just be made because I just would want like Nora to have like a like a like a cousin right here. Yes, yeah, they're they're pretty addictive. I will say kids are addictive because I haven't. She does cute stuff and I'm like, oh my god, we make a cute kid. Let's double down. You have to. You have to. I mean, if we're if we're sharing things here, I think we should. Um, I've already picked out the name if you ever do have a child. Again, Oh my gosh, what is the name. I've picked out the name for your son, if you had a son. What is it? Charlie. I actually like that boy or girl to be honest, Like, listen, how do we know lots of Charlie, Like you know, there's Charlie Caruso or Charlie Arnold. Charlie. Good. How great is that name? It's great. So John's grandfather was Charlie. So that was like on our shortlist. Yeah. Did you just pluck that out of thin air? Yeah? I just thought it was like a cool name. Charlie. Charlie's really cute. I like, Chuck, Yeah, it's really cute. Charles Barkley, Yeah, Charles. Another another episode of the session, another guest a friend of the program, A friend of the program. If you think you know who was also Dad that I'm thinking about it, you know who was? Another early episode was the DMD as well. Yes, oh we should get ripped back on obviously, Jamie Hayte or somebody I would love to get on. Um, we've done about the cards close to the vest that one could break though. I want to have a little peek at those cards. I think you should. I want to get her on. I think you should. I mean we've had we've done now over two hundred and fifteen episodes. He's crazy, It's insane. That's so many episodes, totally Molly, so many conversations, so many wrestlers. Noah, you know who we should have on again? John Moxley. I like when I'm like, I gotta go up and record with like I've got a record, and he's like, who like me and Amelia? But anytime I'm like in a pinch, He's like, want me to come back on because he secretly wants to do it, because he secretly wants to do it because he enjoys it, and you know he's hanging out with me. That's really what it's about, right, and I think and Daddy and also too h you hit us with the daddy, say dad, Dad's daddy? Who I don't think he can hear. I don't know what you're picking up, but no, he is. I mean John Joey was a great guest. Obviously. Why did you have done that many episodes? Like that's really impressive. I'm impressed with us. I mean, this is the longest tenured thing I've ever worked on. Yeah, well I did the math. This is our fourth year together. What we started in twenty twenty, it's twenty twenty three. Wow, we've been together four years. And it's funny because I was cleaning out my email, right yeah, and I found something. I'm gonna screenshot it. I'll send it to you later on. But do you remember, let's see Renee Poquette, you're in my email. Do you remember, by chance? This was you emailed me in twenty nineteen when Biggie introduced us when I was when I was working for New York and they asked me to pitch podcasters podcast ideas, and you sent me a pitch. Do you remember the pitch? He did? No, it was the pitch. Here you go, Hi, Emelio I just put together a one page idea. Let me know what you think and what tweaks what we should work on young and the wrestlers. This will be a podcast hosted by me or in a pocket. Each week I will welcome a guest from the world of WWE, a past, a current, or an NXT superstar. Or we could welcome somebody that's equally passionate about the world of professional wrestling ie me and celebrity fans. The goal of the podcast will be to unkiel the layers of those lovely human beings and show a side of them that maybe we don't get a glance of in between the ropes of a WWE ring. Given my laid back style and hosting, hosting and interviewing each episode, we could try it. We could try something different depending on who I'm sitting with on the other side of the microphone with we might possibly have an honest and open conversation. Maybe we do a coin toss, talk about their their career, what ignited their passion for sports entertainment. Maybe we won't. We could branch out into family life, love life, weird habits, life on the road, movies, music, and well just about anything personal just fun, just two people hanging out. Ideally maybe over over an adult beverage. We let loose, we hang out, we have a little fun. I'm nosey as all hell and I have a lot of questions. Oh my god, Welcome to the Sessions, everybody. The pitch from all pitch though, I will say I'm as much as I love the name the Sessions Young and the Wrestlers is great, and I'm sad that I'll never be able to use Eddie and somebody else actually gave me the idea for that. I can't remember who gave me that that. I will say that was not my idea, but I love it. You know. It's really funny, though, is I was thinking about this not that long ago? Maybe maybe because you guys were doing this special for E at the Wallet Mania. Excuse me, ma'am, you have something to say into the microphone because you keep grabbing it. Are you blowing all the cinematography fingers? Anyways, I remember when etour connected because I was I must have been in La doing backstage, so I remember being at that hotel and us jumping on a phone call for the first time. I remember it like, very, very vividly Yeah, that's so funny. And here we are, we are just muck banging and interviewing and there's a kid in the picture. Now. Who would have thought, But yeah, I remember that. I remember that vividly. I got up in the middle of of of a boardroom people that I did not know, and I'm wearing a suit and I pitch you and I said no, and they said no. And they were like a bunch of fucking stiffs. They're like, circle back, We'll figure it out. Okay, it's okay, here we are here. We meant to be. It's meant to be. It was meant it was meant to be. It wasn't meant to be there, but it was meant to be. On our own, we made it happen. It grew some legs. We've been working with the volume since what episode Eddie Kingston episode? Wow, this is Reliano to Eddie today. Yeah, it's a nice little circle back to him. That's really cool. Yeah, Hey, listen, sometimes you have a good idea and you just keep hammering away. I think that that's a good lesson because even though a room full of people that I had worked with a plenty, I actually guess the guy says a lot about me. They're like, no, we don't want to do that. They probably they were sick of me at that point. I was kind of on everything. No, you know what, I think it was. No, you know what I think it was. I just think they wanted to do specifically. It's funny that now that they signed with Endeavor. Um, you know, they signed that deal with Endeavor. They were originally going with Endeavor Audio. I don't know if it's the same company, but um, it's funny that they I guess they wanted to just get the wrestlers more into it, talking about like wrestling wrestling stuff. Sure, sure, and that was the thing. But I said to them, we need people like a Corey Graves. We need we need someone that's a conversationalist. We need a Renee Poquette, you know, or Renee Young. We need a Renee Young, you know, like this is this is what we need. And and they said, boo, you horror, Nora. What's the sign language for? She can't hear him. Guys, relax, It's fine, Um no, it's it is really funny. But but anyways, to my point is that like even though it was a no there, then we went to go do it ourselves because we believed in it. In eight episodes in we've been with the volume for the duration of that time, um with this young upstart company, just surrounded by really great, talented people, and here we are so lucky to get to do it. And it's like, you know, it's pretty cool to me to think of like, what like the duration of the time of this podcast. But also during the time of COVID, I was doing the show when I was home and I was super super pregnant. We did the pregnancy episodes to give me a little buffer to figure out being a mom, which clearly is going great. Heysten him into it? Are you trying to give my microphone your bottle? Thank you? Anyways, I'm proud of us. I'm really I'm proud of us too. I'm proud of us too, you know, because it's just funny because I was cleaning up my email and I've seen that and I was like, Yo, this is the this is the pitch to the sessions. This is the sessions. That's the sessions. That's the idea, that's it. And now we've been doing it two hundred and fifty how many episodes? But this is this is two fifteen to sixteen. Maybe, Yeah, we've done a lot. We've done a lot. Now it's really cool. I'm really proud of what we've done. And we're just going to continue to go, continue to go and continue to grow. And Nora is going to continue to go and to grow. Are you leaving out of here? Yeah, she's had enough violent, she's going right into that bag and she's going to eat that that that Mexican pizza that No, you can't have any more, baby, that was just for fun. Parties over. That's it, kids, Sorry, the harshness of life now is cold. Sorry, the cameras are off and now party is over. Now you have to understand that's it. Now you got to go to bed. All right. Well, hey, I'm proud of us, I'm proud of you. I'm thrilled that you exist. Same likewise, I was telling E when we when we did that video for him, and I was telling him afterwards, I was like, you know, you helped me change my life, right, I'm I'm there's a there's a two people that well three I'm him Brian to Willagher and you that really helped change my life and body too. But that's a different thing. But um, you him and to Williger really changed the course of my life where I'm able to do this and I'm respected and people listen to what I have to say, and I'm eternally grateful for you, and honestly I do. I love you like a sister, so like like, I love you like a sister too. Thank you. I got the lovely hair for it. You do a great head of hair. Mine's all gone, but it's still a great head of hair. Oh I no, next time we come on, we definitely got to talk about my Canadian tuxedo outfit that I wore at while Oh my god, with the sunglasses. Yes, it was very. Um, it's very Matthew McConaughey, I would say I was. I was. There was two looks that I was going for. There was an album cover from the seventies R and B disco group called the Tramps and Matthew McConaughey very good stuff. Yeah, well, we'll do more fashion next time, guys. This was dedicated to Taco bell Um, to our bee holes, to our love for each other and for the podcast, and um, I hope that Colin is okay. That we just ate Taco Bell on a podcast, right, Colin Fallin, are you here? Are you listening? Colin Gollin, We're still cool. Um, all right, I'm out of here. I gotta go put this kid to bed.
