Plus, Jesse discusses his new substack venture and podcast, "Die First Then Quit" (jesseventura.substack.com), which he's undertaking with his son! - Розваги
Jesse was such an awesome heel announcer. Just brilliant 👍
Jesse and Gorilla Monsoon- best duo ever whom announced pro wrestling.
@@mjones2305 the only thing better was when Gorilla would say to The Brain…..”Would you stop it!” 😂
I could listen to Jesse tell stories all day long
He really is a great storyteller 💯
Go watch Will Sasso do his Jesse Ventura Impersonation!! It's dead on lol
Well why don’t you tell me what I said? You weren’t there. I’m a patriot, I spend 6 months of the year down in Mexico in the Baja. I have solar panels and I eat fish tacos. But why don’t you tell me what I said? 9/11 was an inside job. I never said that. Nope. Well why don’t you tell me what I said?
@Miguel Stein 😅🤣😅 And he has the head shifting down to an art lmao
So could Jesse
Jesse Ventura was my childhood hero. I always listened to what he had to say, every month I faithfully read his columns. I learned from Jesse as a little boy. That no matter how, "unpopular," it makes you. "Always tell it like it is." Which consequently was the name of Jesse's monthly column. Thank you so much Jesse for the lessons you taught me when I was younger. Your advice made me the man I am today.
I just shed a tear
I am so glad that Jesse Ventura has his own podcast.
Jesse is one of the best talkers in sports entertainment. :)
Where?! My days will fly by from now on
@@rampageclover9788 under there...
Yeah, most delusional guy I ever heard.. so yeah he can babble on for days
@@kylejoseph7849 Doesn't sound very delusional here.
Jesse Ventura, one of the most brilliant minds ever.
Would have made a much better president than what we had the last 4 years and currently have.
And voices
Says Jesse Ventura
just ask him, he will tell you
*One of the best most brilliant minds ever? Goodness, what nonsense. Ventura is a crackpot conspiracy theorist who is incredibly thin-skinned and engages in pure self-pity whenever he's criticised.*
Jesse Ventura...love this guy. "I ain't got time to bleed." - classic quote :)
yep, classic line
One of the only lines which tops that for me is "I'll get all the sleep I need when I'm dead" by Wade Garrett ( Sam Elliott ) in Road House
@@reallymysterious4520 Agreed - great line.
@@reallymysterious4520 That line was actually taken from a 1976 Warren Zevon song called "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" Good tune off his 1976 self titled album/CD.
@@mlbowen6476 Thanks for that !
Guys like Jesse Ventura are important to protect the wrestlers and make sure they are properly paid.
Wrestling careers are extremely short and can result with chronic health problems. Their pay needs to cover the times when they are unable to work and the needed medical treatment.
It’s a punishing business, and one where even the talent are manipulated into a state of settling for less and then turning on others who might speak up about such issues. Jesse Ventura has been way ahead of his time on this, and his seasoned status has given him the opportunity to push such issues to the front without being silenced.
its called a union, and the boyz wont touch it...
Jesse Ventura is the greatest Wrestling Color Commentator of all time. He meshed well with anyone, whether Vince McMahon, Gorilla Monsoon, Jim Ross or Tony Schiavone.
2nd best. Heenan was the absolute best when it came to color commentary
@@projectgraham414 i would say they were 50/50
JR
@@creed9922 JR was the best at Play by Play. Jesse was the best IMO on color Commentator, like Jerry Lawler & Bobby Heenan.
He didn’t mesh well with JR. JR was jealous that Ventura was making way more than him. JR has admitted it.
Lmfao 3:47. I did not expect Cyndi Lauper to be mentioned in this conversation.
I remember when Jesse was governor of Minnesota, he did so much good for that state, the people loved him
It went pretty much the opposite of how you say, he was a disaster by almost all accounts
@@thehammockdistrict5355 He was loved there, it's his family who were hated the most..
Would love if he ran for president
@@thehammockdistrict5355 When he became governor there was a four billion dollar surplus in the state coffers. When he left, there was a four and a half billion dollar deficit in the state coffers. That pretty much sums up his governorship.
They hated him. His approval was so low that he didn't bother to run again. He turned a huge surplus into a huge deficit.
If A.E.W CAN GET JESSE ON TV SOON ...THAT WOULD BE INCREDIBLE
And do what?
@@filthiestfish commentary...
@@wolfmanscott8669 At this point in his life, I have to believe that he would have to be thrown a huge pile of money to agree to do commentary. It wouldn't do anything for him and it wouldn't do anything for AEW.
@@filthiestfish it would only be cool as a one off. But that’s pretty much it. They have enough guys on commentary.
@@TheFailedmessiah what about all the talk from AEW fans that want JR off of commentary?
The "Me too" at the end got me 😂
Ventura and Gorilla were the best on the mic. Gorilla and Heenan were world class too
this is the kind of thinking that we need to have for our next President of the United States. Love it!!!
Listened to this episode of Talk Is Jericho earlier. Enjoyed listening to the stories Jesse Ventura had to tell.
I have total respect for Jesse Ventura.
his talking is so clear and crisp. no errors.
I was a fighter….
a navy seal….
I wore a feather boa….
I’m off the grid….
Jesse Dentura
a Mongol
Jesse the Body was great especially on the mic 🎤 I love hearing him today and loves the bodyshop but I wish I got to see him wrestle and I go back and watch him nowadays because it's easy especially on UA-cam. One of the great wrestling minds.
Especially the tag team matches with Adrian Adonis in the AWA
Jesse Ventura is freakin legend
I need Jesse to become my business agent for my local carpenter 's Union.The cities where the mob is prominent are the ones that get the highest wages,better pension credits and annuity.Kind of funny how that works.
I knew this would hit Jesse sooner or later he’s tried to sue Vince so many times not including the fact Jesse brought up the fact that wwe doesn’t pay taxes or view their wrestlers as employees
What do you mean they don't pay taxes can you be more specific how would you know that
@@VSMOKE1 try reading, u might learn on your own for once
So what?
Vince may have a T-Rex skull in his office, but let's never forget that he still lost against a goddam sexual tyrannosaurus in court! 🦖
I understood this reference!
Jesse doesn’t have time to bleed.
He was the first to job to the predator though. To him, he was a jabroni.
S!mp McMahon
So great to hear this story, have never heard it anywhere else before
Lol this episode had me thinking Jericho was talking to Grandpa Simpson at times lol. But definitely had alot of great stories. I’ll look into his substack.
grandpa simpson for president, it is an improvement!
Beating vince in court is a big accomplishment
I loved when Jessie talked about Jan 6...
2 legends in one podcast, amazing job 👍 Chris
2 dbags who got owned by jimmy Norton 😅😂
One legend, jesse
Fucking Love You Chris. 😁😁
And Mr. V, your Badd Ass sir soo soo much words can't explain. 💯💯💯❤️🔥
Jesse is the only proper legend
Go get him Jesse he needs to be humbled! 💯👍
it really is crazy how good value for money the wwe network is compared to other streaming platforms
Chris your podcasts are brilliant! Truly brilliant! Vince McMahon lies is commonplace, but what Jessie did was he took Vince's greed, his lies and brought it back to him. This was incredibly beautiful to see Vince losing! Sorry but I LOST EVERY SINGLE OUNCE of respect, and love for the wwe. I can't watch it, I just am disgusted by him. To me the wwe is already done! After Owen Hart, the Pat Patterson allegations, and the constant lies, I just can't be a fan of a man who runs any sport, or and company like this.
Outstanding and Most Excellent.
Vince, a billionaire, depriving wrestlers out of royalties yet coerces women with millions to stay quiet about abuse.
He wasn’t a billionaire at the time and also wasn’t paying women to stay quiet about sex yet either nice try lol
@@ginoabboud4365 eh you don’t really know, Vince has done some really shady things so who really knows. There’s probally going to be more accusers coming out.
I'm not sure how true it is but I heard through various interviews and documentaries when Owen died his wife filed a lawsuit against Vince over him not being protected and Vince countersuit because Owen couldn't carry out his contract, wouldn't be surprised if true tbh
You jealous of Vince lol lol hilarious
@@charronrose68 You jealous of decent human beings lol lol hilarious
The story about Hulk Hogan ratting on Jesse Ventura is so great about making a union
What story
One of the rarest of people in the industry smarter than Vince.
Talk is Jericho is totally awesome! Huge jollifications chris lol
One of the many wonderful qualities Jesse posses is talking to everyday people of all walks of life. Many of the stars will just blow them off. I miss Jesse's commentating commentating NFL games and Pro Wrestling matches.
Please come back JESSE VENTURA YOUR THE BEST OF ALL TIME GREATEST G.O.A.T
Jesse Ventura is a best funniest former commentator, Jericho.
I was entertained by his mind and truth. Witty is an amazing thing Jesse Ventura has.
Nice Riff Raff from the Rocky Horror Picture Show haircut - Little Jimmy Norton
I love how uncle Chris uploaded this part, but not the part where Jesse talks about the people who went to Capital Riots, of which Jericho’s wife was a part of, where Jericho just cut to commercial break 😂
Jericho really is the greatest mark for himself ever.
Let's be fair about this - if Vince has to pay out royalties, how can he afford to pay hush money to his mistresses?
Lol you sound jealous hilarious
@@charronrose68 I'm not all that jealous. I mean, it would be nice to have all that money and get to run a huge entertainment corporation, but it's also nice to be a decent human being that cares for others and treats people with respect. I guess that's a wash.
@@charronrose68 Lol you sound simpy hilarious
@@jonlavigne3270 yes including paying royalties to it's top wrestlers.
@@rojayreid908 every wrestler deserves royalties, the amount should vary of course
Always enjoy Jesse's story.
Jesse & others should sue because if you own your name & likeness, you should be getting streaming royalties
Jess is up there with the best Color Commentators in the business ever if not the best. That iconic moment and words with him and Gorilla Monsoon when Hulk Hogan and Andre go face to face at Mania 3 “Look at the size of the Giant” and “What is Hogan saying to him Monsoon what could Hogan possibly be saying to him” for me the most iconic words that any of us will remember. We can count on one hand the best lines that have came out a commentators mouth and those are the ones that will always be simply Stand Out for many years to come.
Oh my favourite was at mania 6 when he had a pop at Gorilla about eating hotdogs “mustard all over your lapels.. you’re a mess Monsoon”😂
@@sg-zd8eb Yes I remember that one quite well and his opening words of Mania 6 were also amazing “Well Gorilla I’ve been to the Super Bowl I’ve been to The World Series I’ve even been to The Rolling Stones but there is no place like Wrestlemania”
WrestleMania 5. Him calling Hogan "The Luster" and "Lust" Hogan. Simply hilarious.
Thought the thumbnail was qui gon jinn 🤣🤣🤣
The Ultimate Warrior also beat Vince in court.
What did warrior beat him on?never heard that story
@@Savage-sr6lh On getting out of WWF and keeping the Name Ultimate Warrior.
Vince is a lawyer and went to law school. Even though he hates lawyers he's a pretty good 1 and almost never lost. He either won or settled out of court. But it was never a Flat out "L". Never Lost, especially to rookies. Now I don't know who he lost to 1st? If it was Jesse or Ultimate. My guess is Warrior. Warrior got out of WWE with a bad taste in his mouth but it was at the same time a legit way out with almost no consequences. Other people would pay back the contract or so. Warrior got kicked out Scott free. He did it like 2 or 3 times. No 1 has done that neither without paying a major consequence. I'm pretty sure Vince doesn't like someone to leave without taking a hit or knowing they'll be crawling back. Which usually happens.
I think Warrior beat him like a couple of times but I'm pretty sure Vince down played the situations because of his ego to lose at anything. He's very competitive. When Warrior got kicked out the 1st time before Wrestle Mania 6 Vince told Warrior how much would he want to get paid to do Wrestle Mania. Warrior didn't know how much to charge and didn't know about pricing and charging. So he asked Ahmed Johnson for some advice. Johnson told Warrior "Well, you should get paid what Hogan is going to get paid, you're going to take his spot so it makes sense." That amount was $1million. Warrior told Vince the price. Vince agreed, but the Warrior made him sign a hand written paper that he agreed with his signature.
After the match Vince payed Hogan but never paid Warrior the million for the match. I think Vince gave him a raise but it was not the million he sign off to. So time went on and on and Warrior was asking for the money over Wrestle Mania. Vince never wanted to pay him and that's when the Warrior said he wasn't going to go out the ring unless he paid the money Vinced agreed to. Vince said okay and when he came back in Vince fired Warrior and I think Jake the Snake couldn't get his title shot because he needed Warrior in it. But ... it was Vince's fault for not paying Warrior. And if Vince wanted to make Jake the Champion he could have done it with or without the Warrior. He's the CEO for goodness sake.
@@Savage-sr6lh Warrior got kicked out. Everyone was waiting for him to come crawling back because everyone usually does. But Warrior never did and didn't depend on just wrestling to survive. This guy was really poor back then and could live off of the money he already earned in WWF. I think they went to court and Warrior showed the paper with Vince's signature in it. I can't remember if they settled or something but I think the judge was on Warrior's side.
The 2nd time they kicked Warrior out was for steroid usage. The government was pressing WWF hard over steroid usage. That's when Vince made Shawn Michaels and Brett hart world champions to show the audience that steroid bodies didn't = Wrestling champions. Out of the whole rooster that used steroids they only kicked out the British bulldog and Warrior 😐??? Shoot even Vince was using the roads when he wrestled. Lol 😂!
Warrior felt they did this on purpose to him because he he was charging generously the 2nd time around and this was a good way to show the world WWF was kicking out steroid users out and didn't agree with it 😐...? Also they didn't have to pay him that much am cut his contract legitimately. But Warrior still got out without any consequences, again.
@@Savage-sr6lh I think the 3rd time was when Warrior's father passed away and he didn't attend the shows. its been a while but The problem with this 1 was that I think WWF use to go to convention centers to do samples of merchandise ideas they had to sell later on. And warrior had this phrase "Always Believe" and he registered it. I think all the wrestlers would go to it to help promote the merchandise WWF would want to sell to buyers to make more money. And they told Warrior especially not to go that day.
I think when he use to wrestle back then he would always see the conventional sells and knew how they worked. He surprisingly showed up and they stole his phrase and used it without his permission.
When he did this 3rd contract with Vince Warrior in the contract said he would work for the WWF if they paid him X amount of dollars and they let him plug his merchandise and his comic book. And he'll cut the contract if they miss used anything of Warrior's intellectual property or him. And since they used his phrase without his permission, and it was copyrighted? Uff....😥! That was an automatic win for Warrior.
Since Warrior yelled and screamed in promos and did steroids, i think they thought he wasn't that sharp. Also they never thought he would put up a fight. But he did. And won this 1. I think he got out of wrestling Scott free and they payed him the rest of the contract. I think they also payed for using his phrase.
@@Savage-sr6lh after this I think Vince wanted to run the Warrior out and made sure he never got to Use the name Ultimate Warrior to shut him out of buisness. Vince tried to copyright the name Ultimate Warrior to strip him of money and Vince can keep all of Warrior's properties as his own to be the complete owner. Ultimate Warrior during this battle with Vince registered his name permanently to Warrior so he can use the name for buisness $$$. That way U.W. can use the name Warrior because it's his now government name.
Vince and Warrior fought over who was the originator of the Ultimate Warrior name and again Warrior won. So every time the WWE used the Ultimate Warrior's merchandise they had to talk to him 1st, negotiate, and cut him a check.
Warrior usually got away with branching out of the WWF without a consequence. He basically got dismissed but didn't have to pay anything the back to the WWF. WWF would usually mess up in the contract, tried to fire him, he would take them to court, the court would be on his side, Warrior would cut his contract short, but he would still get paid extra.
.....Jesse....USA Loves You.
Thank You for ur Service, Governor.
Jesse Ventura should appear on AEW as Luchasaurus father, The Sexual Tyrannosaurus
Thats, actually kind of fucking brilliant for a cameo backstage, that’s a good line, he probably won’t drop the rest of that quote though lol 😂
What an absolute legend. Two legends right here
Wrestlers really do get screwed alot by promoters. They are called private contractors so they don't get retirement and health benefits (in the USA) but management still orders them what they can do what they can't do who they can talk to what outside projects they can take. Also they don't get paid royalties on the network or VHS/DVDs back in the day. IMO I think wwe should give a 1 time bonus payment when guys sign their contract this bonus would be payment to use any of there footage without having to pay royalties in the future. It would cost WWE money up front but save them money in the long run from lawsuits like Jesses. It would also be more fair that the wrestlers got something for their footage.
@@link2947 that’s what unions are for and why Jesse wanted to start one.
problem is other industries, ie football, acting etc, are also considered independent contractors and they have sorted the issue out by unionising and stuff.
@@anthonymacgregor9790 the NFL also sorted those union issues out by charging $300 tickets and $169 jerseys to pay for these obscene inflated contracts. Greed goes both ways. I want wrestlers to get whats due but it should still remain affordable entertainment for the working class fan imo.
why bother when they'll climb over each other to sign anything they r given?
Promoters don't have anywhere near that control.
Not sure how Jesse is still married if he wins every argument.
The best part of this interview is when Jesse called out the January 6 protesters (which Jericho’s dumb wife and mother in law participated in) and Jericho just had to sit and take it 🤣
Jesse Ventura is one of the best ever!
Well, Taker DID have a movie alongside Hogan in Mr. Nanny. So Taker should also have royalties from Hollywood as well.
@Chris Jericho: they still put out DVDs man. I just saw a bunch in Sunrise Records here in Ottawa. Including this years Wrestlemania
Unless there’s a video attached - I’m forever convinced it’s Will Sasso talking
This used to mean something, I'm going in there mano a mano, why don't you tell me your such a patriot?
I cannot disagree with anything Ventura said. By the way, I was doing my Ventura impression as I was listening to him, LOL!
That's an i interesting point. I hope other wrestlers follow jesse. Good for jesse
Will Sasso's impression of Jesse Ventura tho 😂🤣
That navy seals story was awesome.
Love when will sasso foes his ventura impression
Jesse 2024
Jesse is a very interesting guy
The government probably gave him a message saying you run we kill your family the USA is evil
Jesse Ventura is the best!
I love Jesse Ventura .
See so many guys just get mesmerized by vince or intimidated. Idk why, I get it, he's the "GodFather" of this whole thing. Only Jessie remembers when he wasn't.
I've always wondered that. For all his success, notoriety an wealth, McMahon just seems incredibly fragile and insecure. A lot of his behavior is rather childlike.
If you get this message, Chris. Ask Jesse to start his own UA-cam channel. There are a lot of people that like listening to him, plus there is a ton of conspiracy people in this day and age.
You know this guy is hard work 😪
This will sasso interview is very interesting
I'm so pissed this guy never ran for President. People say he was one of the greatest governors when he was in office.
He was an awful governor. Lol.
McMahon obviously isn't too sharp nor are his lawyers. As a former legal professional, who has handled hundreds of cases and business transactions, I can honestly say that there are ways McMahon could have avoided the quantum merit suit that Jesse instituted. It needs to be done at signing of a contract. Love Jesse and of course, I'm glad that he won, but just saying there are some wealthy people who just go through the world and are dumb. Lawyers too. Some, not all. A lot of wealthy people and many attorneys are very sharp. Be careful when choosing an attorney because you can really get screwed if they do not know their field. Jesse had a good one.
He's worth billions. He's obviously not dumb.
@@ButterBallTheOpossum it was a dumb move. Period. Give it up. The contract should have been different. You obviously work at a job or have a low key small business. Nothing wrong with that. There are plenty of billionaires who are not too smart-- especially the one's from generational wealth. Most very smart people who are in business probably will never be billionaires. Kim K. is a good example. Still studying to pass the real bar. Please.
Jesse is always steps ahead.
Imagine Jesse on AEW commentary…
I would love to see the back and forth between him JR.
Imagine NO
He’s who I most want
Jesse Ventura on Color
And Kevin Kelly on Play by Play
Is AEW paying royalties?
Love this guy
Hundred percent Jericho and edge they were the best boys should get money to they put their life on the line
Good for Jesse standing up and getting what was owed to him
moderna royalties
Be "Me Too!" ......
EEEEEEEVERRRRR!!!
With all the talk from fans wanting Jim Ross to be replaced on commentary I think, Jesse Ventura would be the guy to do it.
@@connor7036 oh but I'm pretty sure he's messed up other names as well.
@@connor7036 he called dynamite WWE dynamite
@@connor7036 how is that woke?
Will Sasso actually did this interview🤣
Could of gone on to an amazing wrestling career, still a legend though.
The biggest fight he won in his life should be winning the governor elections in Minnesota, as an independent, without being a puppet of any party or lobbyist. Idk if there's any other US official who has achieved this.
Great Video !!
They defd still make DVD's
The LEGEND himself!
Jesse might actually be a better idea for president than either leader of the two garbage parties that get taken too seriously
💯
Jesse wasn a decent worker in the ring. But as a commentator, he was gold. And also on the mic was great. And I may not agree with everything he says, I have incredible respect for the fact that he always stood up for himself. And never allowed Vince or that tool Hogan to push him around. He stood by the things he said and never backed off.
Jesse Ventura still one of my heroes! The world will plunge even further when we lose more people like him
Hot damn I love listening to Ventura.
i remember in the semi early days of WWE dvd's they would mute Jesse's voice, i guess they made a deal as eventually his annouincing returned
I'm an Englishman and have all Jim's books.
I miss Jesse doing color. He was the best. Chico Santana, Chump Hogan...
My favorite... "The Pukester"
Jesse is one smart dude.
Quantum Meruit has nothing to do with lies as this guy proclaims. It is a simply a legal way to determine the amount to be paid for services rendered in the event that an amount isn’t stipulated in a contract in the first place.
Now play the clip where he demands an apology from the guy carrying the confederate flag in the capitol.
Or just have your wife apologize.
I'm so sad that Jesse "The Body" Ventura didn't go for US President after his term as Minnesota governor!!!!!
Jesse Ventura is a Legend
Jesse ventura is amazing
I know the Honky Tonk Man and Roddy Piper widow sued Vince McMahon over the same lawsuit. McMann was paying royalties to Jerry Lawler and when HTM found out Vince was paying his cousin and not him he sued him for it.
Yes yes yes to that he mean and stephanie shame on them I pray for they soul to go to the good side
Love Jesse
