Welcoming Garrett's New Baby
00:00:35
Speaker
Hey everybody, welcome to Predetermined, a pro wrestling hangout. I am your host, Garrett Callender, and with me are the other hosts, Fax, who just had a chicken, Vendolu, and Chris, who is in an Airbnb with delightful artwork around him.
00:00:49
Speaker
Oh yeah. And Garrett, nothing new for you, right? You're just at home, just another weeknight. Yeah, good. Are you having a good time, dad? Yeah, just business as usual. I have slept normal every night since Saturday night. Yeah, no, nothing to report here. Oh no, I had a baby. The baby is here two weeks early. You can be called dad now, it's appropriate. I mean, some people called you dad, you know, big daddy before, but now it's really appropriate.
00:01:18
Speaker
It was mostly my friends in the bear community that called me that. And now it means even a little more. A little bit. And we should memorialize this for our listeners too who already know what the length of this episode is. Garrett is a father. That just happened a couple of days ago. We all thought he was gonna take a week off. He's here. I'm flying to Iceland tomorrow. I'm here. Chris is already in Chicago gearing up.
00:01:45
Speaker
for, well, other stuff but then a bunch of wrestling. We're all over the place and we figured, hey, let's get together for what we are intending to be a mini episode, a less than half episode. 20, 30 minutes is what we're gunning for.
Jokes and Baby Naming
00:02:00
Speaker
Viewer, you will know how successful we were when you see this in your feed and by the time you're listening to it, just know if we're going more than 20 or 30 minutes, we're going way off topic and that must mean it's a good podcast.
00:02:14
Speaker
Right. A spectacular one. We were just having too much fun that I decided whatever repercussions I get for going over the allotted time I was allowed. If you hear a baby crying in the background, that means Garrett's having way too good a time.
00:02:30
Speaker
No, no, I think our listeners, if they see like 49 minutes in the thing, they should either say, hey, maybe Garrett dropped out or Garrett's wife who gave birth just days ago is in the room and just be like, you know what? Those are some really good takes on Beastman. You should keep going.
00:02:48
Speaker
Oh my God. When I say we just had a baby, this baby has lived in our home for six hours. We have had very little time at home. The baby was born at 11, 20 Saturday night. Took us a day and a half to decide a name. And Fax, I did text you guys this. Last week, Fax and I discussed what our mothers say when they don't care for something.
00:03:16
Speaker
And when I text my mom the baby's name, first thing I got back. It's either that's not what I expected or that's different. I got back two words and a period. That's different. Yep. Absolutely. The baby's name is Ozzy Victor Calendar.
00:03:36
Speaker
He is growing up to be the Prince of Darkness. And he's our second favorite Sabbath. But I don't want to name the kid Ronnie. And your third favorite Kevin Nash gimmick. But also, but also your favorite of Kevin Sullivan's gimmicks, too, if he's going Prince of Darkness.
00:03:59
Speaker
OK, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, right. I mean, I mean, if I had a name after my favorite Kevin Nash gimmick, he obviously would have been super shredder Victor Callender. Right. Which is a strong name. Have you have you submitted the paperwork yet? Can you go back? I actually I thought that because my wife was, you know, pretty loopy on on some some pain meds. Yeah, one by the goalie. Is that what you're thinking? And from the part where a baby came out of her body.
00:04:26
Speaker
Yeah, and they gave me the paperwork and I
Hospital Wrestling Antics
00:04:28
Speaker
thought like, maybe the best prank I could play is, we say this is the baby's name, you find out much later than it is not. I was thinking, Chev Chellios Calendar Statham. So I would hyphenate my last name with Jason Statham. Sure. But you know, instead we went with something normal like Ozzy.
00:04:56
Speaker
But that that is how genetics work, right? That if you if you put the hyphen Statham, he's going to basically inherit Jason Statham's genetics. Yeah, I mean, that's kind of what I thought. I mean, the guy was an Olympic swimmer. He's got perfect abs for his age. I watched him punch a shark in the face in the mag. Why wouldn't I want want little Ozzy to have that? Now, are you going to watch any wrestling tonight with the baby? Because the first night that
00:05:23
Speaker
my child came home to our apartment. Fax came over and we watched Kenny Omega versus Cody Rhodes. We weren't going to miss that and it was the right time. Which one? The Cow Palace? No, the Supercard of Honor one.
00:05:43
Speaker
Gotcha. Yeah. In New Orleans. Yeah. Yeah. I was I was there for that one. I was there for that one. Great. Again, we I maybe we could maybe could have been there. But again, I was you were. I was in this post, but I was able to watch the show. And that's, you know, that's love that my wife has for me.
00:05:59
Speaker
Well, yeah, I don't typically go to the good Wrestle manias. That's not really one of my features. And since that was something you'd fall under a fairly iconic good Wrestle mania, I couldn't be there that weekend. Gotcha. Gotcha. That was not a good one, by the way. That was a bad Wrestle man. That was a terrible one. Was the best thing on that card was Ronda Rousey in the four way.
00:06:25
Speaker
like Ronda Rousey's debut. Oh, I'm thinking the previous wrestle. That's how old and burnt I am. I am referring to the previous WrestleMania New Orleans when Daniel Bryan won it all in the streak of broken. Now like nine years ago.
00:06:42
Speaker
That was the WrestleMania that everybody thought, oh man, Shinsuke Nakamura versus AJ Styles at WrestleMania. This is going to beat anything that's ever happened in the Tokyo Dome. And then it didn't. I couldn't tell you anything that happened. And then Chris and I saw the rematch in the Prudential Center.
00:07:04
Speaker
And the first the first the first live show I went to after my daughter was born. Facts is like I've got this extra ticket to this WWE pay-per-view. Someone bailed and I was like, OK. And that was the one where they did first. Two things. I was like literally someone bailed and they already paid for the ticket. It is a free and they were like not like front row, but they were solid tickets. Yeah. A pay-per-view like.
00:07:32
Speaker
We watched Daniel Bryan wrestle Big Cass. Was that the one where Big Cass left after that? I think that was the next month. I think they might have done one more match. But this was the one where they did the finish of Nakamura and Styles and just kicked each other in the balls a bunch of times.
00:07:55
Speaker
That was really special. We walked out during the main event, which was Roman Reigns against maybe Samoa Joe. I believe it was Samoa Joe, yeah. Yeah, we were just like it's time. There was a good period where it's like, how do we make our guys look tough? Well, the only way you can beat them is to repeatedly hit them in the dick.
00:08:16
Speaker
Yeah. See the weird thing though here is, is based in our text. Garrett, I think you might've watched the most current wrestling this weekend of any of us. Yeah, I watched very little.
Wrestling Event Plans
00:08:29
Speaker
So Saturday morning around 3 a.m., my wife thinks her water is broken. But we aren't sure, but she isn't having contractions. We wait till the morning, call the doctor. The doctor says, go to the ER. We're in no hurry to get there. We end up in the ER for like four hours. And our good buddy, Hardway Heater, was participating in Battle of the Tough Guys in Boston. And honestly, I thought we were gonna make it back in time that I could watch it on my TV.
00:08:59
Speaker
wasn't happening, so I was like, hey, do you want to watch this on our phone? And my wife and I sat in a waiting room, or like on, she was on the hospital bed, and we watched Deathmatch Wrestling. Like, both of you. Together. You watched it together. I knew you were watching. I didn't realize this was a family affair.
00:09:16
Speaker
It is getting more charming now, Garrett. We were honestly concerned about this for you. Does your wife know Heater? I mean, you guys. Yeah. OK. Heater and his wife, you know, come over and we hang out like we're we're all friends. So I think I just wanted to clarify. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She's she was very proud of Mr. Hardway and no joke, like five minutes. So we're in that waiting room for four hours. Some nurses come in and tell us
00:09:45
Speaker
false alarm, like not happening. And they tell us that mid heater match and we're like, okay, whatever. And, but they told us to like, hang out for a minute. We're sitting, the match probably sit there until the match. They're like heaters wrestling. He's a, he's a friend of the Nashville hospital system. Yeah. They've seen him quite a bit.
00:10:05
Speaker
And then basically match ends, and seconds later, our doctor walks in, he's like, hey, actually, nevermind, baby's coming today. And swerve, yeah, swerve, really some Vince McMahon. Vince Russo is just down in the basement, like, bro, bro, nurses, here's what you do. We gotta make this more exciting. That's how we're gonna make this work. We can get people in.
00:10:33
Speaker
that mentally fucked bro bro bro bro which I guess it turns out that Vince Russo was working for USA through all of COVID as a consultant for wrestling but not for WWE what other wrestling is well no no like he was USA you mean the network or the country the
00:10:55
Speaker
He was captain wrestling for the entire country. He was overseeing everything from your local indie to the Appalachians. To like Olympic tryouts too.
00:11:10
Speaker
But yeah, so we're sitting in the room like my brain is melting because I went from you aren't having a baby today, go home to actually you are having a baby today. I'm short circuiting. I see that heater is calling me and I have to text him and say, Hey, man, good job in your match. I can't answer. I guess I'm having a baby today. And yeah, that was the last match. I saw a battle of the tough guys from there. I mostly spent the next few hours panicking.
00:11:40
Speaker
as one does but do have to say with the hard way heater match really gross thumbtack spot heater did not win but he had one of the longest matches of the card it was him versus hood foot and you know they were they trained together they were buddies they've had a lot of matches so it was kind of like another one of those brother versus brother kind of things
00:12:02
Speaker
But man, Hoodfoot took a sack of thumbtacks and one at a time started pushing them in Heater's forehead. Did not knock him onto them. Was just gently, I guess not gently, but he did it all around the cage so everybody got a view. He was drenched in blood.
00:12:20
Speaker
I'm happy he's back is what I'm saying. I like to see my friend get hurt. Now, I have a I have a medical question here. So do you feel like watching deathmatch wrestling prepared your wife mentally for giving birth? And if so, would you recommend to listeners as you know, an expert in this now that as people are going into labor, they watch some deathmatch wrestling just to really get their mind right for
00:12:49
Speaker
birth. Um, I don't know if it helped her. But, but for me, like, mid C section, I hear like a slop sound at my feet, because you know, there's a curtain in front of me, I can see my wife's head. And there's now a mess of bloody rags on my shoes. And I didn't feel as
00:13:12
Speaker
anxious and bad when Heater was bleeding all over that cage in Boston, as I did seeing my wife's blood at my feet. That's scarier. Did the deathmatch prepare me for it? I mean, honestly, if anything, seeing Mittens get lemons squeezed into his eyes in a deathmatch may have actually calmed me down.
00:13:35
Speaker
i was gonna ask i wonder if that would have been the thing you see you know your what your wife's blood if just mittens were in the room holding a banner up if that had just brought you back of like oh it's just mittens it's just a show everything's gonna be just okay mittens is holding the curtain and the curtain says
00:13:55
Speaker
He's actually just got the three man's Warner sign. Well, what's funny is that a few minutes before finding out that we were having a baby, my wife had to sit there and listen to me explain who Mittens was. To whom? And I do get a message from our friend Lowell, who is offended that Mittens is predetermined before Lowell.
00:14:28
Speaker
Here's I guess here's the thing. I mean, if I were about to become a parent and I were contemplating mittens, I feel like that would be very distressing. I just need mittens to know he lives rent free in my head. You know, I think the day my child was born, I was explaining who he was. He's just. Second greatest character in pro wrestling next to next to Beastman.
00:14:55
Speaker
Next. So I will, we should note that while you were going through this, Garrett, and we were, we were messaging, all of us are messaging with you and kind of give you support. Fax and I were also messaging separately, mainly to discuss what we should wear to see Beastman wrestle Joey Janela in a couple weeks.
00:15:20
Speaker
And I think what we were so we thinking because we sent a message to our friend Tom and to Tom's credit. His first response was, OK. How do I should I cosplay? Or no, it was more like I should cosplay. Right. And we're like, oh, we hadn't even considered that. But yes.
00:15:40
Speaker
Well, it was interesting because I had brought up like just before that, like, Hey, should we dust out our old blazers? I don't know if any of the listeners have seen the curtain jerks that used to be our signature. Look at wrestling shows in New York. We'd bust out the blazers, but now the blazers are for a podcast that no longer exists.
00:15:57
Speaker
We're like, oh, maybe we wear the blazers and we just tell people about predetermined. And then and then our friend Tom with the cosplay and we're like, this is all is all right. We're going to cosplay. We're going to do a Beastman thing. And maybe this is something we all do. And this is how we promote our podcast and Beastman at the same time. Because and so my first thought is, OK, we're going to need the help, but with like the head thing, which Beastman does wear sometimes. But facts had some concerns.
00:16:25
Speaker
OK. Yeah, it's they were. So again, when you describe them, it all sounds like, OK, Beastman, you kind of describe Beastman, but they're on Beastman. Then when when you take those same terms, put them into a Google search, find a site that sells them and you see them on a normal sized person. And while we are all wrestling fans, we're far closer at least to normal human size than Beastman is. They get a little bit January 6th.
00:16:53
Speaker
real quick. That guy ruined that for all of us. He did. He really did. And it's a nice look. But I think, you know, we shouldn't say definitively what we're wearing. As I mentioned, I'm going to Iceland, legit Viking country. We're going to see what I come back with.
00:17:09
Speaker
We've kicked around some other ideas of things that might work. We found a couple things. There's something we all really, really liked. And again, money is no object for making sure we show our love of Beastman. It's just Kenneth. Unfortunately, we didn't have this idea in time. There was one that Chris found on Etsy that was perfect, but it's not guaranteeing shipping in time.
00:17:34
Speaker
but you're going to Iceland facts. I'm, I'm expecting, I'm not just thinking it may have, I'm expecting a, just a Venmo request from you for many hundreds of dollars that just says. Okay. If you haven't already, please message facts, your, your measurements.
00:17:58
Speaker
So then he has to like do the conversion to see what it is and, you know, Iceland. That's one thing we found out even from looking at like Etsy, Viking stuff doesn't really do sizes. It's just kind of, and I think that's possibly why Beastman is gravitated to it and the observer before him is that it's just, it's big. It's fur. It's, you just kind of drape yourself in it. It's not like something that has, it's not going to be tight, right? Cause it's just fur that covers you, covers part of your body.
00:18:27
Speaker
It's giving those Homer Simpson vibes in the episode where he's like, I don't want to look stupid. Give me the Moo Moo. You know, that's right. Exactly. But also in a pinch, keep in mind, this isn't going to be as authentic or quite as good. Spirit Halloween is back open.
Beastman Match Excitement
00:18:47
Speaker
So, you know, worst case scenario, you go buy a $40 Tarzan costume and
00:18:52
Speaker
We have some fallbacks. We have some, so that's kind of where I'm at. I shared, I have a fallback option. If I don't find something in Iceland, I think worthy of the beast, man. But we'll see. And we, by the way, we just found out before the show, it's now him and Janelle in a body slam challenge. Is that right, Chris? Yes, that's what I saw on the Instagrams.
00:19:16
Speaker
Yes. Well, I mean, at first I was like, damn, that means we're not going to get a proper Janela Beastman match, but then I realized how fantastic this is going to be. And presumably it also means like we all knew Beastman was going over Janela, right? Janela, whatever is a couple of matches on TNT for a year and change or two years. That's.
00:19:37
Speaker
It's nothing to Beastman, but now it does feel like that's all but a certainty, but it's just, I do, I can't wait just to see the facial expressions on Janela as he tries to slam Beastman.
00:19:49
Speaker
and also to see the facial expressions on Janela as the three of us just very loudly chant beast man, beast man, husk husk husk, just over and over again. Just beast man, husk husk, yeah. And Janela has seen us, right? I mean, I don't... Yeah. We've been to quite a few GCW shows in Jersey and stuff like that. I don't think he knows our names or the name of the podcast per se, but he's definitely gonna be like, oh, that guy.
00:20:16
Speaker
But not about this way. No, I've had some chats with Janelle because Janelle was one of the few people that if you just come up to him and just start talking about early 2000s indie wrestling, he's just like, uh-huh, yeah, let's talk about that low-key match from 2003. He's very excited to do that with you. Very few other people in this world are excited for that competition.
00:20:37
Speaker
I will, he is honestly one of the most fun wrestlers to chat with. If you'd go to a show and he's around, very willing to chat and he's super nice guy. I always, I do enjoy chatting with him in a show. Can I throw out a suggestion for you guys? Would you like to have a priceless artifact? I think the answer is yes. Spirit Halloween, get a fake bone,
00:21:07
Speaker
go to that show, because this is the show that's going to break Beastman. As hard as we've been trying to get everybody to know him, more people are going to know, get Beastman to sign that bone. That's a good point. We should have the bone. We should each get a bone. We should each get a bone. Both Janela versus Beastman, get them both to sign it, date it, that.
00:21:30
Speaker
Hang it on your wall. I also think if we're doing the chant while waving the bone, I think that's really going to put it over the top in a way that I think is going to really drive it home. I just don't want to offend Beastman if it's not a real bone that there was meat on at one point. Well, bring your grill, have a little cookout and do some tailgating, invite Beastman, show him the seasonings.
00:21:55
Speaker
Well, here's, so here's part of it. So I think we mentioned this a little bit last week. So there is a GCW settlement series show and it's at 2 p.m. Eastern that day. Now the JCW show with Beastman is until 8 p.m. So the settlement series is not going six hours, right? It's going three tops, I would say, right? So there's going to be a nice window in between that clearly like we're going to get some food and stuff like that. So it's in Boonton, New Jersey.
00:22:25
Speaker
I actually know this town pretty well. This isn't just some town in Jersey to me. I actually know this town. I actually am in this town once or twice a month, no shit. So I pretty much know all the good eating in that town. So I think that we might just do stop from place to place looking for Beastman, seeing where he, I think, by the way, I'll give this hint to anyone in New Jersey or in the area that might want to go to the show, listen to the podcast. Sabor Latino.
00:22:55
Speaker
one of the finest places to get any food in all of New Jersey. Good place for you to get a meal if you're gonna go to that show. And honestly, I think Beastman's got a he's got a nose for this stuff. So I think it might be a place where I might look for me some Beastman. Yeah, or we could bring him a rack of ribs. I mean, invite him out. Spend the time with Beastman. Get to know the Beast.
00:23:20
Speaker
The one thing is, I'm trying to think about how to talk about this delicately. You don't meet your heroes. What was that? You don't meet your heroes. Well, I was just going to say, so I'm going to be just because, again, I live in New Jersey. These guys are coming from New York, so I'm going to be driving. I'll be the designated driver. So, Grinn, I would love to go out on the town afterwards. It's a Saturday night. Let's go out on the town with Beastman.
00:23:46
Speaker
I don't know that Beastman would fit in my car. It is, it is a very, it is a compact SUV. Maybe we can put down the back seat, maybe you could just kind of play. And then I don't know. You and Tom, Chris would probably have to either share shotgun or you would have to just sit on Beastman's lap. I'll go on Beastman's lap.
00:24:14
Speaker
I'll go in the Beastman's lab. And Garrett, I don't know. Our friend Tom is literally like a power lifter who competes in strong man competition. He's a big guy. He's he's one of the top seven vendors in the world. Subscribe. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So like the robot from Futurama. But it's going to follow each other on Instagram. And Tom and I had watched wrestling together on the Internet. Mm hmm.
00:24:40
Speaker
A handful of times. He never once mentioned the bending, follows me on Instagram. Now this man that I only know from this one room in his house is now bending steel with his bare hands. How does Bragg about that, Tom? Bragg about that. That is, you're incredible. You're incredible. He's incredible. He's incredible. And in almost any room,
00:25:06
Speaker
He and I'd say the same about myself, Tom and I are both types that in most rooms we're in, we are the biggest person in the room, right? If we go to a wrestling show, maybe not, but Tom will look like an actual child compared to Beastman.
00:25:24
Speaker
And here's the thing about Tom is that maybe you have enjoyed the work of Bill Kazmaier, former World's Strongest Man and briefly Debbie Sibi wrestler in the early 90s. Tom kind of looks like El Ejo del Bill Kazmaier. In fact, I have pitched that he go to Japan and just say he's the son of Bill Kazmaier and just people will believe him. What does that get you other than like a Roberta jacket?
00:25:50
Speaker
It's for a bearer jacket and probably three tours with all Japan. Have you seen their Gaijin roster at this point? It's not strong.
00:26:05
Speaker
Yeah, I just I think he I think we can I think he even he would be dwarfed by Beastman Beastman would make him feel like a small, small man. Yeah, that's going to get a picture with him, right? Like he would have to sit on Beastman's lap and it would look like a four year old taking a picture with Santa.
00:26:22
Speaker
I actually, I wonder if Beastman would be willing to do this. I feel like Beastman, I could take a picture of Beastman where he's just holding me like, like we're crossing a threshold, just like I'm in his arms, like a small, like a baby, like a baby. He's holding me, rocking me like a baby.
00:26:38
Speaker
Can Tom please record the interaction of you two talking to Beastman? I need to see a video where when you approach him, arms are wide, like you are a child hugging the Easter Bunny at the mall. Like, I mean. Yeah, no, no. And I hope that's after the card, if I'm being honest, because I want the people watching at home, right? Watch this show, right? I think it's streaming free on YouTube. Most of them are. Free?
00:27:08
Speaker
I want you to see the reaction of both us because it is a small venue. It is at an elk's lodge. I know what it looks like on the outside. I've never been inside, but it's not a big building. They're selling two rows of tickets. I was shocked.
00:27:24
Speaker
that they actually could even fit a ring in this place, let alone even two rows of seats. So you will see us on this video. So I encourage you, listener, A, look for Chris, Fax, and Tom, and just how we are reacting to the Beastman, and then also how he reacts to us. Because again,
00:27:46
Speaker
I don't know, again, how big he might have gotten in West Virginia. I don't think he's going to like Buntin, New Jersey isn't like the boonies like it's we're talking like 35 minutes from Manhattan. Right. Like we're this is the real Northeast.
Chris's Chicago Travel Plans
00:28:03
Speaker
I don't know Beastman's expecting going to be expecting what he's going to get.
00:28:07
Speaker
when he walks through that curtain, he's gonna feel like he's cheap trick in Asia. Like he needs to really feel this, feel the love. The only thing time he's gonna feel more like cheap trick is when he's actually main eventing Budokan for New Japan. And honestly, I feel like this is just a great way
00:28:34
Speaker
to just say this is Alphas and Omegas, not just because Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega are both around, but also, I mean, now your child, Garrett, is going to be here to see the full real arc of Beastman, right? Because this is the
00:28:52
Speaker
alpha event. We really think this JCW show is going against Joey Janela. It's going to get a lot. And the fact that it's on YouTube for free means it's, it'll probably get more views than a normal GCW show outside of the really big ones. And it's, it's right after the, you know, one of the biggest wrestling weekends of the year, right? Labor day weekend in Chicago. So there's a lot of momentum, your child, and you will always, you know, you'll never forget.
00:29:21
Speaker
where you were and where your child was during the rise of Beastman. You'd be like, oh yeah, you were here and you were a few days old. You were two weeks old when the story of the Beastman really started to be written. You're going to be watching on YouTube, Garrett. You're going to be holding Ozzy and you're going to be saying, that man, you're going to be watching that man for the rest of your life.
00:29:47
Speaker
That man is your godfather.
00:29:52
Speaker
Yeah. OK, we we have hit the 30 minute mark. I do want to say so, Chris, you are in Chicago. You're going to. What are what are you going to? Well, so. So yes, I'm in Chicago. By the time you hear this, Derek and I will have gone to dynamite. Maybe we'll try to do. Maybe we'll try to do an old Instagram drop in. Just say hi. Then I'm going to maybe the settlement series. Haven't determined that yet, but definitely art of war games.
00:30:24
Speaker
And again, probably on the brunch, but then Derek and I are definitely going to be at all out. We are going to try to record some things afterwards. So maybe in this space next week, you'll be hearing at least a little bit of Derek and I responding to the show that we have just been at, hopefully like an hour before that.
00:30:47
Speaker
Awesome. Yeah, it's going to be fun. Record some with Derek, record some with Lowell and Matt. Sure. Please, please. I still I honestly still have not figured out where I'm staying for that part of the weekend yet. And man, the red roof just keeps getting cheaper. It's. Can't go wrong with the red roof with the. Like you stay and we actually OK, hear me out. Hear me out. Forty dollars.
00:31:18
Speaker
And we'll throw in an amenity. And you're like, what is it? And they're like, maybe it's a towel. Maybe it's maybe we got a Coke machine out back now. But either way, you're walking distance to GCW. Either way, maybe it's maybe it's you share a room with the GCW wrestler. We don't tell you which one. Man, who? Hmm. Jimmy Lloyd. It's Jimmy Lloyd. He's ripped out the smoke detectors.
00:31:47
Speaker
And he's just teen smoking. It's it's schlack and he he's not even just a sleepwalker. He just does a lot of activities while he sleeps. Just get in your door, bust it in, and it's like a stepbrothers situation, but it's schlack.
00:32:13
Speaker
Uh, he's just in the parking lot, turning cars over and just eating garbage, like straight out of the trash. And when you say garbage, I'm picturing like the old like seventies and eighties metal Oscar, the grouch can bites out of the metallic can itself.
00:32:32
Speaker
Holy shit. This, I am, yeah. I would love to, I'm excited to hear you and Derek's recording. I would love to get a report from the Red Roof and with you and Lowell. Like, especially because you guys have never met. I think whatever audio comes from that after you see people bleed in a cage would be fun for me. But I'm excited to see what happens that weekend and hear about what all you see. It's gonna be fun. I mean, tomorrow night,
00:33:02
Speaker
The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega are going to wrestle Will Osprey and Ozzy Open, which is very, very exciting. Again, you'll have seen this by the time you, you listening to this are ahead of me. It's like it's the future or something. Um, but I'm very excited to see that. It is amazing. Garret, you're basically like, you,
00:33:26
Speaker
Admittedly, you've fallen asleep several times during the recording of this. Just at opportune moments, you just keep popping back up. It's been very, very impressive. I'm actually schlack at my sleep right now.
00:33:40
Speaker
And Chris, it's good to see you seem to be fully over COVID. You do seem to have some kind of flesh eating bacteria, very obviously forming on your forearms. Yeah, that started right before. So I got to Chicago. I had five layovers. So I've been to five different cities.
00:34:02
Speaker
And New York to Chicago is not a popular flight. It's not. It's not. So I had to fly to Birmingham, Alabama and then Tulsa, Oklahoma. Yep. I've done this one. Then around to Salt Lake City. Sure. Then up to Boise.
00:34:21
Speaker
up to Boise and then to Chicago. And so if I had something that was contagious, I may have spread it across the country.
Podcast Reviews and Farewell
00:34:31
Speaker
I don't know. I'm not a doctor. You're like, I have coughed and ejaculated at five different Starbucks in three different time zones in 24 hours. It sounds like you pretty much covered all of Mormon country, right? All top five centers of Mormon culture here in the US.
00:34:50
Speaker
yes that's that's gonna be great and i was also thinking that that main event man that's six assuming it's the main event that six men like we don't know what the main event of all out is but it's like a coin flip on paper it's going to be as good a match on paper as kenny omeg and young bucks versus will osprey and ozzy open
00:35:08
Speaker
Yeah, I wasn't sure if I was going to go to to dynamite. And then I was like hoping for that because we did have the tickets and it was like, oh, no, now this is 100 percent. I'm actually somehow more excited for this again, maybe than the pay per view. And that's why I'm getting a really good new Japan match. Yeah. But we don't get we don't get Kenny in New Japan anymore. So this is the closest you're going to get. But maybe we will down the line.
00:35:32
Speaker
Maybe, maybe, because here's the thing. Garrett's about to be awake basically for the next year straight. So this is the perfect time. Kenny Omega, if you're listening to this, you want to do a tour of Japan, you want to wrestle matches at three in the morning Nashville time. Garrett is ready. I am watching. Ozzy is watching.
00:35:53
Speaker
my wife hopefully getting some sleep while I do dumb shit in the wee hours of the morning. But yeah, I'm in men that no better time than now to get back into New Japan. Tell your wife, maybe send a letter to Kenny Omega. Tell him this is the time. This is the time for her sake. Well, all right, everybody, I think it is. We should probably call it there if that's OK with you guys. Here's here's what I'm going to tell everyone out there right now. If you want to give Garrett a gift,
00:36:23
Speaker
for becoming a dad. You rate, review, and subscribe. Give it five stars. That's what you need. Five stars, just like every Beastman match. That was a gift right there. That was a gift. That performance was a gift. Don't be a pud. Rate, review, subscribe. Thanks.
00:36:42
Speaker
All right, everybody, we will be back next time or at least Chris and Derek. That's the new vibe of the show is just tune in. It'll be somebody who gives a shit. You like all of us, right? We're all good. And you haven't heard Derek in a while. You're excited to hear him come back. I know I hit our goddamn music.
