    Jim, I'm guessing none of those guys have a podcast as big as yours and they probably enjoyed getting the love. I get it, I was never a wrestling legend, but I get, how do I say this? Like, one minute everyone loves you and knows your name. They adore you. Back to what I said, does Tito has a podcast? I've never seen the guy wrestle. Way before my time. Do you not think he didn't have the time of his life getting a pop 30 years later. I'm 34. I never saw him wrestle so I know it's been that long since he was in a WWE ring.
