President Trump: Courthouse Workers, Officers Were Apologizing
"A little bit of what it sounded like. Trump, president Trump talking about what the experience was like when he went into that New York courthouse and was actually indicted. Well, it was a horrible thing because I did nothing wrong. Absolutely nothing wrong. You look at even the pundits and the legal analysis, Greg Jarrett, all of these really talented people. They're saying, he didn't do anything wrong. So that's number one. Number two, they were incredible. When I went to the courthouse, which is also a prison, in a sense. They assigned me in, and I'll tell you people were crying. People that worked there, professionally worked there. That have no problems putting in murderers and they see everybody. It's tough, tough place. And they were crying. They were actually crying. They said, I'm sorry. They'd say 2024, 2024. And tears are pouring down. There is, I've never seen anything like that. Those people are phenomenal. Those are your police. Those are the people that work at the courthouse. They're unbelievable people. Many of them were in tears or close to it. Many apologists were sorry, sir. We're sorry. They had me do certain things. I can't believe I have to ask you. I can't even believe that I have to ask you to do it. You could see. So in one sense it was beautiful because they get it.

Joel Gilbert Unpacks His Film 'Michelle Obama 2024'
"You reveal this in the documentary. And again, folks, it's Michelle Obama 2024. You can see that Salem now dot com, and there's a website Michelle Obama 24 dot com. Not 2024. Michelle Obama two four dot com, but you really Joel are convinced that she is running for president in 2024. And it seems to me that you're nearly as horrified by the prospect of another Obama presidency as most Americans are. And so you want to show that she's really been putting forward a lie that she's been pretending to have this story, which when you look into it, is not only not true. It's the opposite of the truth. Correct. Michelle spent her life actually running away from the black community for education. Every time she had a chance to study with other blacks, she went to a school with all whites. Then she spent her professional career exploiting the black community. She worked for the mayor of Chicago under Valerie Jarrett at the planning department and her job was to knock down the projects she made 20,000 black people homeless when she knocked down cabrini green and other projects in Chicago, and it was up to Michelle to tell the black people. This is better for you. You'll be better off if we take your homes away. Then having proven her callousness, she again worked for white democratic elites at the University of Chicago where her job was to take healthcare away from the southside black community. She ran something called the south side health collaborative where what was happening was black people from the south side were showing up at the emergency room at the University of Chicago because it was right next door and Michelle made a program where she put them in these vans and dumped them at these crappy neighborhood clinics

"60 minute broadways with Lawler that I look back on and cherish because I'm thinking how the hell am I going to go 60 minutes with this guy? We did a baby face 60 minutes. Damn. He's so good, man. How good is Jerry Lawler? And his cadence of all of it just unbelievable. The moon dog matches I had, which were really hardcore before it was with Randy cully or Larry Latham. Bill Smith. So the moon dogs and there were some hardcore matches and look, it wasn't no AEW kind of houses. But it popped the territory when a time territories weren't popped. The people wanted to come out and see it. You know, when you look at that era, 89, 89.991. Anyway, that, and then of course the show and Michael masses. Scott hall, I had, you know, Scott's a big dude, man. And so the kind of matches we had, I had a couple of ladder matches hold up to today's standards, but we had some good matches, and then when you kind of fast forward through the years, a young A.J. Styles that, I mean, I knew he was a special athlete. I knew he's a special talent in just, we had some matches that to me were for sure some of the best in my career. And then it goes without saying. And from 2010, 2011, I had some matches with Kurt Angle that at that stage in my career that I had really and here I am 15 years old, but I had really consciously made it my mind that I was going to be a full-time executive and really wanted that. And then that opportunity came up and I just said, all right, let's dive in and Kurt's timing on false finishes and submission holds and knowing, again, sat under the Curt learning tree several times during that era. But those were some of the matches, we had one in Charlotte on pay per view, like to kill me, but those. So different errors, different times like that. And then I know this may sound crazy, but the Ric Flair last match. You're a heel and a baby face. You are truly an anomaly. The connection you have that just transcends. To me, it does. It transcends, believe me, I got buddies in the gym all this. Your connection with the audience is never been done because I think from a music perspective and the theme song and you don't need you don't need any crab it's or Joan Jett. Right. So that emotional connection. But I think where I'm going with this is that you're a heel, but you're also anomaly. But you understand where I'm saying this. For me to have the opportunity to play the role that I had in Ric Flair's last match, the angle, beat him up in the parking lot. It was just kind of a yes, it was a throwback, but it worked. You know, a $2 million weekend and hats off in the next board God bless him. I wish he'd slow down, but he's going to keep going the way he wants. That was really special to me from a professional point of view is that I was the heel that got to do the honors. Well, Jeff, it's great having you in AW. You look great and it's great having you in the ring and out of the ring. And they'll probably have to take us here in the Woods and shoot us before we ever got into this business. I made the list, folks. I got on talk is Jericho. I appreciate you having me on. I really do, man. Thank you, man.

"Vince as a talent in the ring and then working with him in the office. Well, the, you know, I left in 99 and we weren't public. It was almost the last day. So coming back and it being a publicly traded company, it changed everything to me. It was just truly a corporate environment. And all the good and the bad with it. The benefits and all that kind of stuff. But it's also, it's just a different vibe. It's a publicly traded company and you're well aware of that. And I think there's some good and the bad comes with it. You know, we're entertainment. I don't have to tell you that. So, you know, I don't think AC/DC kiss, Aerosmith, any of those legendary rock bands were heavily at publicly traded company. And there's a reason why. I don't think fozzie's ever going to go public. But you know, because what we do, it is so unique to what we do. Wait, you mean you want to lose tonight? Yes, that's what we need to do. And then the following Wednesday, no, I need to win tonight. Will you lost last week? To an outsider, people don't understand, and I'm trying to drill down and do something simple a simple analogy, but when I came back to WWE and it was publicly traded, that was different. To me, the chairman was, at this point, 15, 20 years older, but hadn't changed. I mean, the same dance, the same mentality. He's going to work harder than you. So he expects you to work as hard as him. You're not going to outwork him. All of that mentality still to me very, very, very creative. Of course, we all ebb and flow and that and maybe as we get older, we don't change our ways. But for the most part, Vince is Vince. His track record, he's hit a lot more base hits and home runs and grand slams than struck out. Just look at the track record. And I think there's a lot of guys here, obviously they didn't work for Vince. And I always think like, man, if you would have worked for Vince for a year or two, you'd have a whole different new enlightenment about what the business is. You learned so much from him. And also too, about the changes of the business, you know? And I think a lot of the guys don't understand that just because you told me something yesterday didn't mean we have to do it today because the boss changed his mind. That's how it goes. That's life. That's life. It truly is situational. And the thing that, and you were Mexico, you were Japan, you work some smoky mountain, working for different, even if it's bookers. I tell Dutch this. And I've told them, you know, working with him. So I worked as a talent in the territory days, then later I worked for him in Puerto Rico, then he worked for me, but you know, different minds that they're the ultimate decision maker. Vince being the ultimate decision maker, he had a way of doing things which to me guided me in so many others because I just think that we are a musician. I don't know if you've ever heard Phil Collins talk about producing yourself. Sometimes you can rise up so hard to the top, but if you produce yourself a 100%, you can really fall through the cracks because you just don't see the force from the times. Absolutely. It'll bite you in the ass. And so having that kind of ultimate compass, the vents was in everything at times a little bit too stringent, but other conversation, but yeah, I think it's good to really have that visionary leader right or wrong because then you can solve correct and I'm sure you witness this that Vince doesn't like something and he sees something happen. Yep. Let's change it guys. We're doing it this way like that, boom. Last few things to discuss at least that there's so much to talk about, but when you first came into WWE, it was a big deal. WWF, Jeff Jarrett's here. The gimmick was almost like, I remember there's a Robert Redford movie electric cowboy. You almost had the electric car. Tell us about when you came in. It was Vince's idea for his gimmick and tell us about your entrance and all the different flashy stuff that you had. Well, you're, you love those light up jackets as well. What was kind of and look now as we're sitting here today on the podcast and all the social media and we're in the building where Chuck Norris superkick me. So you'll know that. Nice. But. Vince's vision of he's still called it country in western. That was kind of his mindset, but it goes back to he saw me in Memphis. He came down and that's the first time he ever played the evil mister McMahon against Jerry Lawler. You know, he was coming down every week and look, business was down 92. I mean, he really down. Him and my dad were having the conversations. But Vince came down to us as a territory. We had a talent exchange. And all that kind of stuff and savage and Jimmy hard and just all that whole kind of wide raging relationship. But he saw Jeff Jarrett, the white beat baby face, southern white meat, babyface. And I blond hair. Exactly. Blond hair, all that kind of stuff. And he was, he was like, you know, you can imagine him telling Jerry Jarrett. I don't see anything in Jeff as a baby face. What? He's my number two baby face. But no, but anyway, Vincent immediately like I see this guy as an arrogant heel because Vince is Jeff, you can work your ass off. You can talk your ass off. You can do this, but we got to create something larger than life. And he just kind of rolled out that, you know, your arrogant and you're going to use the WWF and rename it the double JF because you want to take over country music. Country music fans are non music country, non country music fans won't understand this, but at the time, Garth Brooks Clint black, the hat acts of Nashville, will really exploding into pop culture. They were doing a crossover. It wasn't just country music. It was really a crossover in the early 90s. So I kind of fit pop culture in a way, and he just kind of saw that that character in me and then him and Bruce had the conversation and said, Vince goes, wait a minute. Look at his name. Two J's two R's, two T's, having spell his name, him and Bruce had the conversation, and then Bruce hits me with it. I'm like, what? And then all of a sudden, about the third, fourth brief tape, I go, I got it. This is super arrogant. An asshole spelling his name. At the beginning, and at the end of every promo is heat. It's just like, I don't like you. People don't like me to this day, I think, because they in great. But that whole character, and then I was there, and he didn't the stripes and Porter Wagner was his point of reference to cut your music, not Garth Brooks. It really was. Porter was his point, but from like the 60s. Yes. But kind of the flamboyant. And so once he kind of saw the flamboyancy of the outfit because in my mind, a country music wrestling star doesn't wear boots and tights. I wanted to, so that's where I came up with the file or the straps and all that.

"Karen was in our bathroom, getting ready for church, and I got a text and said, hey, can you chat? Yep. Chat, amen. Vince would like you in the Hall of Fame. What do you think? And so 2018 was the Hall of Fame year and then from there Royal Rumble and, you know, hey, do you want to produce some matches and then me and Vince stroke up a conversation? And I said, hey, Vince. I want to do more and he goes, can you be at the office next Tuesday? Mike, this is all within 30 days. So had that went up and fought CWT creative writing team. As part of the creative writing team for the first probably 6 months, but that's really just traveling with vents at the shows, observing and all that. And probably, I don't know, 30 or 40, now longer than that. Three or four months. One night on the plane, he just said, hey, man, stick around. And then he said, I'd like for you to kind of dial off into live events. And I was just like, oh, yes. I'll do that. And then we did that, and then the pandemic hit, and the more live events, and he moved me over into international. And that's something that has been right up my alley. I feel lucky that I got that opportunity. To kind of look at learn. I mean, you know, DNA is one learning ground through the global force days. Also had an international agent who, again, that continuing education, but then seeing the WWE system from an international perspective, I learned a lot amazed a lot, and then I think that can really help us, Chris, as I sit here today, moving into the future with AEW. How will you go with the differences in your experiences of working for Vince, I guess the major difference is working for

"It's still going. Do you take some pride in that that it's still something you started 20 years ago, it's still going? Sure I do. You know, it's like a kid that you raised that not on the best speaking terms in 2017. I'll take all the blame or as much blame as needed, but I do have a lot of sense of pride in from a professional point of view to, look, TBS and TNT are top 5 networks. We got on spike in the Viacom family, spike was probably the fourth network in the MTV VH1. They were kind of a redheaded stepchild, if you will. They were, we were on the top, I think we were a top 25 cable network. Not bitching, but we got really successful. It took us a lot longer than three years. But you know, we were making 6, $8 million a year, O 7 O 8 O 9. So really built that thing and got it rock and roll and kind of dated you on our Cheesecake Factory meal one time. But no, we had built that thing up. So from a professional point of view, you know, Jill passed away and O 7, and that was, you know, from a personal point of view, dark times, professionally, just the opposite Chris. It was something that, to this day, very proud of, we got that thing rocking and rolling, and then it became, oh, that looks easy and me and the carters, not me in the car. In Dixie got sideways, and look, I'll take my responsibility. I didn't deal with everything perfectly. There's a lot of blame to go around. But those times are very good. And then in 2013, when me and Toby couldn't back by controlling interest and I just knew the writing on the wall that it wasn't going to be, it wasn't sustainable in the current model. And so that's when I resigned and left and gave global force and we're going to tell that story coming up. There's a lot of folks that I think even you. Fox Sports plays a story in there. There's a lot of stuff that were important in sheets because there's like 5 of us that knew, but on the global four story. But anyway, in the 2017, but they just had their 20th anniversary impact because that's your question, is that, yeah, it's cool. I mean, that library from player Hogan, hardee's, you name it, name after name every Joe, the homegrown Christopher Daniels, and there was a point in time where snow Joe was my favorite wrestler in the world when he was with the impact. With Kurt, so good, it hurt. It was a really, really, and I hear stories about AW, the correlation of just kind of the vibe in the energy and everything that went with it, 'cause you know Mick Foley was with us four time and Mick was so good for the dressing room because here's a guy that legendary dude, but he's like, he was so good. So anyway, a lot of good times in that. And yes, I am, again, I'm so glad anthem. You know, you're backyard. Lin asper. But that group got a hold of it with deep pockets. You know, we consider all day and the business is so subjective. It's because it's creative. But yeah, I'm super impressed that they're keeping on keeping on. So the peak of TNA was probably 2008, 9. And what kind of a rating were you guys doing? So I mean, that's why it's different, but here's what I always look at when you hear different folks either bash it or congratulate it online, but we were doing about between 1.8 and 2 million viewers a week. Which, you know, again, it's great. It was fantastic, but we were so here's what I try to impress upon whether it's Conrad on my podcast or others. We blew their network average away. So the network average in prime time and they had different content, but the network average 800,900 thousand. So when we're doubling that every week, the value to the network was enormous. I think had we kept on that chartered course, it would have been, who knows. I definitely think we would have another hour on another night, maybe another two hours. The trajectory was that way. It didn't happen, but we were so far above network average in the numbers were good. The demo was good. They were an all male network and were very proud of it. So yeah, but we had a good little run there for a while. What led to you kind of reconciling with WWE. As ironic, is it may or may not be. So quick cliff notes, 2017 of October was the darkest period of my life. And that's when I was sick and tired of being sick and tired and by the grace of God went into alcohol treatment. And that was, you know, Karen was, yeah, she is ready to kill me for sure. But, you know, we got to get him help. And so Bruce Pritchard had worked at impact with her. She knew Bruce, she knew wrote dog. All my buddy, you know, buddies, so she had reached out to Brian, reached out to Bruce, just I need help, and they just immediately went, boom, we're going to get on the phone with WWE. And so that was kind of my first entry back into Jeff Jarrett, at least being in the conversation after all those years. And then coming out of out of that. And I've told this story, I'll never forget it. I was getting ready for church and I was already ready.

"You know, they had the roster with you were there. All of that then Vince had the pick of the litter. Nash, Hogan. Goldberg. Guys that I'm well aware are way above my stock. And we could go after failure after failure after failure that didn't work out. So I knew for sure, I don't need to go now. I need to buy my time because there's no demand for that. Kind of like this situation. You guys, when Tony approached me and I'm like, I want to do all the director of business development. No, all this, and then you got into, we've already discussed it. No, the magic of you and Jay and this and that and I'm like, okay, I can see this working, all that. But anyway, so the opportunity was there for me to launch TNA and so that's I kind of sees that. My dad went with him and he saw it and look, it was a lot of ups and downs, but that was the real impetus of me to jump off into starting DNA. I just knew there was a void in the marketplace. Tony Kahn saw the huge void in the marketplace. I just love the old school. And once again, that's something that probably Vince loved the fact that you get the check from the gun arena. So they can't avoid it. That's right. I mean, that would never happen again ever. It's such a cool kind of, like you said, one foot in the past, one foot in the future story. Yeah it is. You know? We all know family is meant to be there for each other. And the Toyota gazoo racing family may not be your typical family, but they always stick together. And now that family has grown bigger with Toyota's most exciting vehicles, GR Supra, GR 86, and the first ever GR corolla hot hatch with a turbocharged 300 HP engine and GR four all wheel drive. These GR vehicles are born on the racetrack, not in the boardroom. They are performance cars made by enthusiasts for enthusiasts. They're track tested and meticulously engineered, and if you love cars and drive a you'll love that they're all available in manual transmission. Nothing like the

It's not a four letter word around here, which I love. But you know, so the house show business, I'll call them the non televised live events. I think the proper terminology that I use when I'm talking to different promoters, I said, hey, these are non televised. Oh, I got it. Right up to the forefront. And that's going to be a situation that. I want to be careful that we I'm a big believer in crawl walk run. If you jump into something and you guys, like you said, you know, a couple of months in that television deal and my God, it's hats off. It's unbelievable the success through the pandemic, which nobody could have planned on. And we come out, say, we AEW, we come out the backside of that and Arthur Ashe or I mean, we could talk about a lot of that success stories, but the thing for me is an old promoter is that's on a Wednesday night. That is fascinating you know well. You don't play many Wednesdays. I would assume. Unless you're out on tour and that's kind of a different deal if you're out on routing and touring, but every promoter in the world wants to run Friday or Saturday and every now and then a Thursday and then it just depends. But the success on Wednesday night is something that I don't believe the typical wrestling fan and certainly not the viewer that I don't think they kind of take. It's a great point. It's just amazing. It's the hardest night of the day of the week to promote. Nothing's even really close. And WWE has been in the market 30 years, Rawls coming up on 30 years, so that's a Monday night at the staple. I don't think there's any mystery into Friday night SmackDown. I know Fox is a programming, but Friday night's a lot better night, so I'll take this, but anyways, success on Wednesdays is huge. So now getting into the non televised events, I want to be real careful that we strategically help with the guidance getting we call them C and D markets, but candidly markets that dynamite is not going to go to. Dynamite is at the top of the top of the top. And I can tell you, we're not Garth Brooks or Taylor Swift, but we are a property that's 52 weeks a year that's incredibly value, incredibly successful. And so, you know, that's the driver of this brand. And so to put shows in sandy markets, I hate to name markets because then all of a sudden either I didn't get mentioned or they think we're coming there. But no, that's at the top of my list is non televised Universal Studios, which was so freaking surreal that I was just there this week, right? And that's where you used to film a lot of impacts. Yeah, almost all of it. But I was just there. And so being a part of that situation will kind of let the cat out of the back because it's already getting out that karate combat has been on the property at Universal Studios, PFL. When we were there, a Universal Studios Chris. We're in between the two parks, but it was kind of like a hidden secret. It was truly called the back lot. And that there was no forward facing events. You couldn't charge for it, really couldn't sell merch. It was a true studio mentality as go in, shoot your content, whether it's a 32nd commercial or they've done feature length films on wrestling was just one of many properties. Moving forward into 2023, I'm super excited how we kind of launched Universal Studios or relaunch and it's going to be a paid crowd. It's just going to have a whole new vibe to it. So Universal Studios not televised a lot of events and then some international projects that I'm working on. And that's going to be again a TNA we had a lot of success internationally. And it's just because the U.S. has four major I mean, U.S. is just a, you know this from fazi. It's just a different world. Once you get outside of the United States, the AEW brand believe it or not, is we are. We are on par with WWE. We're just, you guys, prior to me getting here super successful. Hot TV is strong. We're growing. TSN is strong. Yeah, yeah. I still never really consider them international. I feel like they're home. They're just north of the border. But yeah, it's true. When you're talking about ratings in other countries, it's huge, huge. Huge, and that was something that literally, Chris, I was here, I think my 5th day. And our friend Kevin Sullivan, I'm Texan him and I said, hey man, I need to get a deck put together. He's like, dude, do you already do it? I said, yeah. I said, I need numbers in Canada. And so anyway, they came along and I was, man, it's fantastic. The growth internationally is super exciting and because America is so developed in a raw Monday's NXT Tuesday, dynamite Wednesday. SmackDown Friday, rampage Friday. All the different things. So America has a lot of content, but we can sustain it. We can internationally, they don't get that. So I think the growth of AEW internationally, not just the UK, India, Australia, South America, all through Asia, man. I think we're going to see a growth period just because pandemics and parts of the world are still coming out of it, but a lot of growth to be done internationally. Football season

"Was it hard when you first started being the promoter's son? Because a lot of people think, oh, it's the easiest, the easiest place to be in, but I would think it's probably the opposite and not just from your father, but from the other boys and for everybody else around. And I got lucky. I used to not think that it was a 100% like you, but look, to me, is almost the same as being grateful. When I broke in, obviously, D was kind of the end of the territory days. And so that mentality, but Nick gulas was the old Greek promoter that my father bought out gotten into big promotional war. But he had a son named George, and of so George gash, 90 days ago. But George didn't have a lot of athletic ability, never put in the work, his dad kind of gave him everything. He never paid his dues, not just as far as running concession standards setting up the ring. He really didn't pay his dues as far as learning his craft. And so my dad witnessed that and my dad, the only reason my dad became the promoter is that Nick really gave him the opportunity because Nick was running the business in the ground because he had blinders on and was pushing his son as the top star. So that opened the door. So here's my dad, a young businessman, and then he grows and gets successful and successful, then all of a sudden, nakam along his son, he went so far the other way that just the respect for old timers respect for just kind of the whole mentality. He just went so above and beyond, but it gave me a perspective on the industry that I'm glad that I have. And cornette used to say it and I still say it today because he really coined it. Being the promoter son is the greatest blessing in the world and the worst. And it just kind of depends on. So I made it through the early tougher years, but as time went on, I think, you know, even the build Dundee or Frank morrell, some old timers that are around, they kind of knew the real store and they're like, now that kid gets zero handout. And I don't give a shit. I've seen it. You know, I mean, we only got an hour today, but I can tell you some stories that I've driven 250 miles from my house to apologize to Jerry Lawler in person because I ask him not to eat in my car. And my dad found out the story. I had a brand new picture money, had a Cadillac. We had to drive up and down all the miles all this. I'm taking Lawler from, I don't know where it was. From the show, but like a hundred miles. 90 75 miles I was driving or something. We got in the car and guys, you know, how the boys are. Whopper. Just crap everywhere. So I got some OCD back in the day, and anyway, that's the story, but anyway, I said, hey, no eating in the car, that was the car rule. Lawler gets in with this food and everything. They start riveting. Longer is like, you don't want me to eat in the car, and I'm like, well, Jerry, no, I would rather you not. And he's just like, you're serious. Well, it's a brand new car, so I kind of stuck to my guns. Lawler calls my dad and tells him this story kind of chuckling, but kind of like, hey, this is where your son's at. My dad went through the roof. Oh, wow. I mean, son, I want you at my house, 'cause I had to drive from, yeah, I'm with you at my house now. Okay, you know, before cell phones, okay, I go up there and walks in and he comes in and he used to have this like a chain like we use in wrestling. Yeah. I used to keep it in his pocket and he had twirling around Islam and twirling around and I walked in and he just sitting there doing that and he said, I'm just make this a real short and sweet. Had not taught you about respect and he goes through this whole speech that I listened to and he says, all right, when's your next day off? And I said, Sunday, he goes, okay, you're driving this house, no phone calls. You're going to apologize to him in person. Wow. Really? So from my house, de Memphis and back. About a 7 and a half hour trip. So I got to think about it all the way down and cut some old man, but not Lawler, and anyway, but no, I know I got long winded there, but I'm very grateful that my dad looked at the business the way he did and wanted me to respect the industry. And that's carried with me a lot of years. I love this business more than I do. I love it more today than I ever have. And for me to have the opportunity to appear on TBS and TNT and global, at this stage of my career, shit, are you kidding me, Chris? We love it. You learned the respect for the business. I mean, I came in a few years after you did, but obviously not to go on a rock in the day, but there really was it was a lot harder to get into the business back then. And when you did, you didn't want to make those mistakes because if you disrespected one of the vets, you would get shit on your bed or the eyebrows shaved or all those different things that we don't really have anymore. It's probably for the better, but it's a different vibe now. The world's changed. And I get it. I've got 5 kids and just the discipline and interaction and their awareness. I mean, I don't want to tell you, but we're sounding like, Chris, we're beginning to really sound like two old times, but you know, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, they're aware for so much. And the opioids and the fentanyl and just all the exposure and, you know, we're getting into really life lessons here. The porn that's just, they are bombarded with so much in society. I just think, yeah, it's definitely a different world that we live in and our business is different. But, you know, kids come in today and I see their athletic ability and kind of their passion to do it. It energizes me and I want to help the gas, big town. Now you mentioned coming in kind of for doing business in the infrastructure part of the AW. So because we are and I've noticed this, obviously, it's not a secret, but we grew so fast. So quickly, like three months in, we had a $160 million television deal with TBS. And much like anything else, we were green as a company. So I think there was a lot of responsibility to some of the Jacksonville Jaguar management to do some of our stuff. So now we're working on building a whole infrastructure of our own and you're a part of that. So what are some of the jobs that you are being asked to do here on that side of things? You know, it's a work in progress and that's we just had this before we roll tape, you know, I was sharing with you about before I took the job, I went out and did my own due diligence. Billy, I'm the brand. Not so much. I'll call it the wrestling bubble or social media.

"You really are a wrestling chameleon and you mentioned being a third generation. Have you been in the business your whole life? You've always had a gig. And when there wasn't a gig, you made a gig. You know what I mean? You've been very good at that. Is that just because of the way you grew up with your father and your grandmother using that experience to your advantage? You know, Chris, as we get a few years under about, I've had it, especially kind of the last couple of years to reflect on that. I think there's something in the Jarrett DNA that we don't do very well sitting still. So we always try to think things through, but again, I was taught at a young age in this industry. If you don't know how to put up the ring, you really aren't in the business. I mean, my father really hadn't mentality. I'm so grateful that he was a time such an asshole to me that he was just like, nope, you're doing this. Nope, you're pulling the ring. Nope, you're going to learn to market. You're going to learn to run the concessions to just every job in the territory days. He really wanted me not just to be around it, but to actually take ownership in it. And so I learned that from a young age, and then, you know, going to WWE or WWF in those days when you just kind of look at the garden and then all of a sudden you have this market wrap and this guy runs live event production and this guy runs team. You just kind of see how it all works together. So I've always been I'm one in 5 in my family as far as siblings. I'm the only one that got the bug, but man, I am so fascinated to this day and now with social media, how it all ties together. So in a lot of ways, I'm more of a student of the game today than I was 20 years ago by far. But I just had dinner with my dad the other night and he was sitting there like an 80 year old man does bitching and moaning about this. And I'm like, what? And he's got these rental properties and literally he's retired 5 times in his life. I'm done. But over the last couple of years, he got into about the last 8 to ten years he got into flipping homes and houses and I'm thinking, what are you doing? But going back to he doesn't like to sit still. So he wouldn't property into another and another. And then he selling some off now. But anyway, yeah, just that entrepreneurial spirit. I think is in you, I think it's in me. I think we just don't like to get comfortable doing the same old same old.

"Single J here talk is Jericho. I made the list. Finally. Finally got invited to the cool. That's right, huh? No, but it's great to have you here. There's lots we can talk about, but I mean, it's funny because I know rumors started going around about you coming in to kind of help with some of the infrastructure. And then a funny thing happened on the way to the forum. You end up in the ring every week as well. Is that what you were expecting when you first showed up? Absolutely not. This entire year, 2022 is kind of bizarre. If you kind of get a set point back in 2021, you know, coming out of the pandemic and everything with it, I just kind of one morning, I've always worked out going to the gym and all that kind of stuff. But I've never had a trainer in my buddy who trains Titans and prayers and country music stars. We just started almost like we do in the business or running joke. He's like, I'm going to start training to you and you're really going to get in shape. Finally, I said, all right, I'm going to take you up on that offer. And so I just no real focus of, hey man, I'm going to get in the best shape. I possibly can. And then the beginning of this year, game changer wrestling, they had reached out and did the Hammerstein ballroom and then NWA, hey, special referee, Crockett cup is in Nashville and that and then took a summer internship at your former employee. No, that's what I'll call it. It was only about a hundred days, a 108 days. But anyway, did that with live events and then we all know what their regime change and all that, but I did SummerSlam and then Conrad and Ric Flair's last match. That was, you know, O double J was kind of option B and C going into it. It was going to be a single and then a tag and then a 6 man and all kinds of different scenarios, but then it just kind of fell in place and did the Rick fair last match and then yeah, out of the blue just kind of started having conversations with the place you built, the house that Jericho built but no, I'm kidding aside and that was all on, I guess you could say my day job, the director of business development, very familiar with Universal Studios. Obviously the lab event business, I'm a third generation promoter. I got some international projects that have been in the works. Some for three or four or 5 years, others have been going about 12 months. So those conversations took place and then, like you said, funny thing on the way to the bread store. Hey, man. Do you want to put on your boots again? And here we are. It's kind of crazy. I know for sure, because Tony saw you in the match with lethal against flair and Andrade, it flares last match. He really liked the combination of you and Jay. And I think that's one of the reasons why you're doing this because you had such a good showing in that match. Yeah, well, which is the history between me and Jay lethal a little independent promotion called cyber cyberspace wrestling in Wayne, New Jersey, right when TNA was going. And so we were just doing the Wednesday shows. And so I was taking independent bookings really griss just going out and making a buck, but also trying to really get into the DNA of WCW had closed down independent wrestling was not like it is today. You guys were all doing, you know, the WWE deal. And so just kind of looking for talent up north, really anywhere. And here's this kid, Jamar shipman, Jay lethal, who men are just really fell in love with. Got to know him personally. We had a, you'll like this story. I've told it a couple of different versions of it. But one night, I'm the heel. He's obviously the baby face. I knew his mom was in the crowd on the back row, and I just kind of looked up at her and kept staring at her, just drawn a line on her, finally she kind of stood up and then we started jaw jacking. And the people got into it. And then we went on about our match. I came back the next month and we did a deal by the third month. She was in Jay's corner and she chased double J around the ring one night. But anyway, that's how far back we go and then at T and a, you know, he's a great wrestler and it would always do the impersonations and people looked at me crazy and I said, I'm telling you, he needs the black machismo needs to be an extension of his personality. He's so good at it because he can do all the outlandish promos, but he can tie it in and then he can go wrestle. Great. So I've been a huge J fan way, way back. And so for us to have that opportunity with Ric Flair's last match, we were in the dressing room before we went out and we me and Jay kind of had this connection that just looked at each other. I said, what are you thinking about? He goes, look at us. After all these years and Sanjay flew down, which was really cool for that. He wanted to be there. And the three of us have been tight and then Karen walked in the room and she knows how tight we are. We kind of had a special moment before we went out, but it was cool. So yeah, me and Jay, and we got good chemistry in the ring. And I think the whole group with sodom is truly a one in a billion talent. I think there's so much upside with them. And then Sanjay and the pencil, there's some, I think there's some good chemistry between the four of us. And that's cool about it too. You're doing the same thing that I've done for years where we don't need to see Chris versus Jeff Jarrett, right? But Chris Jericho and the Jericho appreciation society or Jeff Jarrett with Satan and Jay, it's like it's almost like a great football team where you have vets and you have the guys in their prime, you get the rookies and you got the up and coming playing squad or whatever it is practice squad. And I think it's funny because when you first came out I was like, oh there's Jeff Jarrett he's got the guitar and then now it just fits. It works. And you know how to get heat too, which is such a rare thing too, right? Oh. From one heat magnet to another. But no, and that's something that I have always, you know, in Memphis, it was just how things were done. Lawler would bring in a young guy and I mean, Glenn Jacobs, I mean, I could go down a list of monster heels that he would bring in. But that's how Lawler wanted to not only keep himself over, but to develop talent and then, yeah, and then he would, you know, way back in the day, I mean, I could tell story after story about that's kind of the nature of the business of, and dusty baker is a baseball manager. And I heard him say years ago, and then when you look at the blockbuster, Hollywood movies, they always got the leading actor, but man, you have those scenes dealers.

How is AW office gig turned into a spot back in the ring? And the splash he's made is his arrival working with Jay lethal. Sanjay Dutt and Satan I'm saying, we talk about his last run with WWE in the office and in the ring, what happened and why it ended. We get into his early career Memphis with Jerry Lawler and the lessons he learned from his dad, Jerry Jarrett, and of course Jerry Lawler, the king himself, we talk about TNA, how and why he got that started and what he thinks about his growth and longevity. And Jeff gives a full accounting of his involvement in Ric Flair's last match.

Sebastian Talks to Investigative Journalist and Author Lee Smith
"My experience in the last few weeks and I was on a couple of the calls, the Twitter spaces with Elon Musk that were most revealing. If you haven't heard the audio, you can hear them on my social media feeds. He was on for more than two hours with one group of more than a 100,000 people, and I got to ask him a question exactly about smoking guns. But I'm on this Twitter space with thousands and thousands of people, mostly from the crypto sphere. I was invited to the first one and they're connected to Elon. And the thing that shocks me is even the host, who's a well-known entrepreneur in the crypto space. It became apparent in the latest discussion yesterday on Monday as drop number 7 is being revealed. He doesn't even know who Peter stroke is. So how is it that there are people like you who've written volumes on this? One of your books was turned into this amazing film, but our friend Amanda milius, who was in studio last week, the plot against the president. How is it that there are volumes of material by you, John Solomon, Dan bongino, Greg Jarrett, and then apparently millions of people who aren't plumbers or truck drivers, you've got better things to do, but who are in the information space who are in IT in high-tech, and they seem to know nothing about what transpired in the last 6 years. Are you shocked at that? No, I'm not surprised because I'm between social media and the prestige press. They did an excellent job of shutting the wider public off from understanding what happened with Russia gate. And now we're going to see the same thing happen with, I don't know what we're going to call it. But whatever the Twitter files is describing, I mean, I happen to think in many ways, it's much larger because it represents a whole of society censorship industry. But yeah, the press and social media has done a fantastic job of keeping this information away from the broader public. And of course, this is what the Twitter files are describing. A sensorship regime to block information from reaching people.

"Because it's not that they are better exerting willpower. They seem to be really canny kind of avoiding temptation in the first place. Yeah. Their daily routines and that kind of thing. They seem to steer themselves away from the harmful obstacles to what they want to achieve. It's not so much that they've got this kind of ironclad war powers. That's something I try and think of for myself in terms of being a bit more strategic about dodging temptations in the first place. As a recovering alcoholic, I am very familiar with that idea, right? The less of it you're around, the better chance you have. That's not to say you can't get sober being around it. The second time I got sober, I was around a lot of drinking, but as they say an old colloquialism from AA was if you hang around a barbershop long enough sooner or later, you're probably going to get a haircut. Same basic idea. I'd like to hit a couple of things from recent psyche articles, although I want to say just a couple of quick things about your book for people. You've got ten rules for personal reinvention that I think are really great. I wish we had more time to get to them. But a lot of them really come down to, like you said, believing that you can make a change and also being realistic about how much you can change. I mean, I've summarized ten rules into two, but those were sort of the two big things that stood out to me. Would you concur? Yeah, I think so. There are some findings that wishing to change your personality without being prepared to do anything about it. It's almost harmful. It will kind of backfires. Yeah. Just desiring to change, but then not having a plan for how you're going to achieve that change, kind of backfires probably because of the frustration that you're going to then experience because you don't have a plan. So when it comes to being realistic, I think people do need to be honest with themselves about how much are they willing to disrupt the way they currently do things. That's such a great point, right? Which is that we often times will keep thinking, well, I'd really wish I could be or do X, you know? But without really thinking about what it would take to be or do X and so we feel bad about ourselves because we're not doing it, but if we were to actually really look at what it would take and then go, am I willing to do that and we might go, no, I'm not, in which case then we can sort of set it aside. The example I always use is when I started this podcast, I at the same time was like, I really want to be in a band again. I really want to be in a band again. And I was feeling bad because I wasn't making that happen. When I finally looked at my life in the structure and the time I went, there's no way that both these things are going to occur. And so I'm going to pick this one and then I was just able to let that one go and boy did it reduce a certain amount of psychic stress on me of, you know, like you said, thinking I should make a change, but not being in a position to do it or having a plan to do it. Yeah, being realistic about how much change is going to be possible, bearing in mind how far you're willing to go. To make changes in your life. Changing your routine, that could be getting a new job, it could be changing your relationships, moving house, you know, living in a different place. The more things you keep the same around you, the more likely you also are going to stay the same after all. Yeah, yeah, in your rules for change. That's a big one, right? You talk about environment, you also talk about your more likely to succeed with the help of others, which is obviously a key piece. All right, so I want to pivot because I know you've got a hard stop. But there was a recent article in your magazine psyche. You didn't write it. But I wanted to ask you about it because it's something that's been spinning around in my mind and I hadn't seen anybody articulate it until recently, which was really an article that talked about trauma. And are we starting to overuse that word or are we starting to over diagnose it? And the woman is her name, I don't know how to pronounce it. Oh no, guha. But she really talks about starting to notice the difference between trauma and distress. And I was just kind of curious. I know you see a lot of articles you see a lot of research, you know, you're kind of a bird's eye view of all this. What's your thought on where we are with the trauma discussion? Because the feeling I've been starting to feel in my gut a little is sort of what she's saying. It's great that we've recognized the role of trauma, but are we starting to over diagnose? What are your thoughts? I think she was flagging up if you start to use the term to loosely to apply it all over the place to any kind of bad experience or difficult experience. You know, you rob it of its true meaning in psychiatric terms, you know, post traumatic stress is an extremely serious condition and it comes with a swathe of very, very difficult symptoms like flashbacks and that kind of thing. And that kind of reliving the traumatic occasion can be triggered, even in context where you're actually safe, you know, which is a terrible experience to keep going through, I think, yeah, and the point I think she's making is, it's just getting bandied around so much. There has been a realization that you don't have to have been in a life threatening situation to experience trauma or a traumatic reaction because traditionally I think it was thought it has to be your life had to be threatened. So there has been a kind of a broadening, but she's worried about it becoming open ended where it's just becoming used for any old you have an argument with your boss and the idea, oh, I'm traumatized because I had an argument with my boss or some people called me some names on the train to work and you know I'm so traumatized so she's worried about it losing its specificity if we use it too loosely. And I think that has been going on to some extent. The point that she made that I really liked was she says it's possible to acknowledge note and soothe the distress without needing to legitimize it by assigning it the trauma label. And that if we do too much of this assigning of trauma to things that maybe aren't quote unquote trauma and I know there's no clear line that we actually decrease our psychological flexibility and resiliency. And I thought that was another sort of interesting point with it. You know, it seems like we had for a long time we were all about capital T trauma, right? Like rape or war or and then we started talking about lower case T trauma, like, you know, childhood emotional neglect, things like that. It almost seems like we're trailing into super miniature tea, you know, for lack of a better way to say it. And I don't know what the answer is. Again, it's just something I've been feeling as I do read in and talking to people and her article just sort of helped crystallize some things for me. Yeah, well, 'cause I think language matters, doesn't it? The terms we use matter and for people who have been through a genuine and trauma. It only helps them further turn to be thrown about in a loose fashion. That's not to say they're on difficult experiences, as you say, are the kind of suck trauma level. Of course there are, you know, you want to help those people too. Yeah. By immediately going for the T words for any difficult experience. I think no one benefits from that. Yeah. And back to the point we made earlier about what you believe about something, whether you believe willpower is a depletable resource or whether you believe it ramps up. What we believe about what happens to us and the stories we tell, and that's a whole other part of your book. We didn't really get a chance to get into, is so important. And so in that way, language matters. And that's one of the reasons I love the work you do. Your book is wonderful. It's out in paperback. I highly recommend it. And your online magazines. That what you would call it an online magazine? Yeah, yeah. That's right. Is that a good word for it? Yeah. Psyche is so good, too. You're an editor there and a writer. And there's so many great articles that always caused me to think. And so I know we're out of time. I admire your work, Christian. I'm so happy we got a chance to talk with you. Oh, thank you very much, Eric. I really appreciate it. And thank you for your kind words about the book and psyche magazine. We publish at psyche magazine every week. We publish a new guide. Some of them are clinical guides that help people address mental health problems or difficulties, and we have kind of life skills, guides, about the endeavor of lifelong learning and I hope some of your listeners will check out

"jarrett" Discussed on The One You Feed
"First time right along with you. Listen to pod meets world on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Thanks for joining us. Our guest on this episode is Christian Jarrett, the author, editor, and contributor to ten books spanning psychology, neuroscience, self help and productivity. He's recognized as a chartered psychologist and associate of the British psychological society and deputy editor of psyche, a global digital magazine that illuminates the human condition through psychology, philosophical understanding and the arts. Christian's latest book is be who you want. Unlocking the science of personality change. Hi, Christian. Welcome to the show. Hi, Eric. Good to meet you. I'm excited to have you here. We're going to be discussing your book, be who you want. Unlocking the science of personality change. But before we get into that, we'll start like we always do with a parable. In the parable, there's a grandparent who's talking with their grandchild and they say in life there are two wolves inside of us that are always at battle. One is a good wolf, which represents things like kindness and bravery and love. And the other is a bad wolf, which represents things like greed and hatred and fear. And the grandchild stops and thinks about it for a second, looks up at their grandparents and says, well, which one wins? And the grandparent says the one you feed. So I'd like to start off by asking you what that parable means to you in your life and in the work that you do. Well, actually, it seemed to try and really nicely with the whole topic of personality development, really, because the idea that we do have the potential to express different aspects of ourselves and depending on the situations we put ourselves in and the experiences we have in life, you know, those different sides to our characters can come out. So just straight away, it made me think of that. And I suppose not only we shaped by our life experiences, but that line about it's the one you feed because the research I looked into is this idea that we don't have to be passive about these things. You know, we can take some conscious control and be more deliberate about the situations we put ourselves in and the company we keep. And that kind of thing. So it made me think of that the idea of which size to your character you're going to feed. Just from a personal level, like one thing that immediately I suppose popped into my head in terms of my own personality, if you like, is I remember like earlier on in the age of Twitter, I might get bogged down for quite a long time in the Twitter spats and arguments online and it was very tempting to engage in those kind of arguments and always try and get the last word and so on and I always ended up feeling worse at the end of those episodes and I think it brought out definitely the poorer side of my character. So I just don't do that anymore. I just do not engage in any of that kind of online arguments and spats. So again, that parable made me think of that to do with which side of your character you're going to feed and encourage on a deliberate level. Yeah. You start the book right away with a pretty big question, which I think anybody who is in this space of psychology of personal development of spirituality. You know, there is this core question of, can we really change? Can we ever truly change and to what extent can we change? And you really devote kind of the rest of the book to talking about that. But in a short answer, what's your response now after having asked that question written that book, you know, all the work that you do in editing a magazine about psychology? What's your short answer to can people truly change? This short answer is an overwhelming yes. It's the short answer. Yeah, it's a long running debate in psychology and obviously everyone really has their intuition about this, don't they? Whether they think people can truly change deep down. But it raises the question about who are we really? How do you measure who's someone is in the first place? And yeah, and how much that can ever change and whether it was through some of the life stories I looked into or the more formal research studies, the overwhelming answer that I came across is that significant change is possible. In fact, it's probably the norm for quite a lot of change to occur. You know, how deliberate that changes or not is obviously another question and whether or not it's changed for the better or not is another issue as well. Yeah, so you just alluded to an interesting question, which is how do we measure who we really are. And one of the more prominent theories in psychology today talks about personality and it divides personality into 5 main characteristics. And we'll go into those in a minute. But that's one way of slicing who we are in a loose way. Are there other psychological approaches for slicing who we are beyond personality that have much prominence? I really like the approach of this psychologist Dan McAdams. I don't know if you came across him, but my book is mostly focused on the so called big 5 personality traits, which you were alluding to there. Dan McAdams has this idea that that's kind of like the foundation of who we are, but then layered on top of that. He has the stories that we tell about ourselves about our lives. The stories we tell of who we are and what's happened to us. And then another level he has is our values and goals, you know, like what matters to us, what we think is important in life. I suppose our morality would come into that as well. So that's kind of three levels. Yeah. I think also, you know, some people think our relationships are a key part of who we are as well. You know, who matters to us. Our identity, you know, the different roles that we take on in life. So there are all these things bubbling around and what they all do kind of interact with different levels to interact as well. As I was reading your book and thinking about all this thought came to mind, there's a song by a band I love, the band is called dawes. I don't know if you know them. They're American sort of, I guess rock band. But the songwriter is incredible. And he wrote a song called a little bit of everything. And it's just a beautiful song. But as I was reading your book, I was thinking so much of what we are and how we act and how we behave and what happens to us and how we respond. It really it's a little bit of everything. You know, it's the situation. It's our personality. It's our values, it's our mood. It's our underlying biochemical state. It's how well did we sleep last night? It's like, it's a little bit of everything. And we want to reduce it. We want to go, it's this. So we can pin it down and make it simple. But it certainly does not seem in any way, shape, or form, to be simple. That's right, I think different people have a different view on what is kind of like the ultimate aspect of who you are. Once you drill right down, you know, so if your personality does change, for example, you know, are you there for a totally different person? Well, no, you're not complete there are aspects of you that will remain the same. You're still married to the same person and you're still the parent to the same person. You still might believe in the same values even though your traits have changed and so on. So yeah, it is a little bit of everything. I agree. The big 5 theory of personality provides a very useful kind of framework for thinking about a lot of these things. Those 5 key traits capture a lot of the differences in our behavior and the way we think and the way we relate to other people. So it's a kind of a useful heuristic I think that captures quite a lot of the variation in who we are. And it does, like I said, it interacts with those other levels like our values and our life story, the stories we tell about ourselves. In both directions, you know, there's research suggesting, you know, when our values change and we change our priorities in life, that can feed back and actually change our

"To figure out. How can we get help. I was at the time. Co-directing their wisconsin. Innocence project is a clinical program in which law students handle real cases under faculty supervision. And we received these letters from both dmitri in jarrett asking for help and describing what had happened and just by happenstance. We got to dimitris letter. I and so. I gave it to my students to do an analysis of the case and they came back and they said this case is outrageous. Disguise innocent we got to do something about it and so we looked at it and we realized that he had appealed to the state court system and had lost which meant that. Federal habeas corpus review was the next place to look the problem. Is we realized that. Under president. bill clinton congress passed and clinton signed into law something known as the anti-terrorism ineffective death penalty act the acronym is called. Ed puck which made it much more difficult to obtain federal habeas corpus relief in one of the ways. It made it much more difficult. Was it imposed a one year statute of limitations and by the time we were able to review dmitri's case. His one year had elapsed. He was procedurally barred from going into federal habeas. The students said but you know his codefendant. Also wrote jared adams also wrote and by pure happenstance jarrett and dimitris state. Court appeals had been handled separately and jarrett's appeal had been decided a short time. Later than dimitris which means his when your of limitations was a little bit later and by the time we were able to review jarrett's case he still had about a week left before his statute of limitations expired. And so my student said look. We gotta do something. We've got to file this federal habeas. They drafted the habeas. We filed it just before the expiration of the one-year deadline and just got it in under the window and were able to then proceed with litigating that claim. We were denied relief in the district court. In milwaukee we appeal united states corporate bills for the seventh circuit and the three judge. Panel unanimously agreed. The jarrett's conviction was invalid. Vacated conviction in june two thousand six and he was finally released from custody in january of two thousand seven. This is how we wind up with. Three completely different outcomes ravenhill never convicted jared's convicted in serves the better part of a decade in prison but then his conviction is vacated so he's exonerated in dimitri exact same case exact. Same facts remains convicted of that crime to this day. I mean it has to live his life with that sort of scarlet letter. Or you know that. Stigma for no reason whatsoever. Gotta tell you is. It is one of the great sadnesses of my career that we have not been able to correct this injustice for dmitri. I'm gonna save my dad actually past six months before.

Like there's there's i think that's kind of the gateway into music that more people have now then just picking up a guitar because there's not much else that can happen for you like there's there's so many different avenues to appease boredom right now. I always thought that was an interesting story. like you see the just the generation gaps. Most of the people that i talked to they just they.

"Relationship can subscribe for the best weekly nba content. These two are capable of. What does that mean could be the best duo all. See how you can beat here. They are chris mannix. And howard back all right kris. Maddox and howard beck crossover. Podcast what oth- back was ever mannix. It looks like we're having an all star game this year. I'm not sure how we're going to get to that point. But it looks like the nba wants to have an all star game this year. We're gonna use this podcast to make our own. All star selections in kind of argue a little bit about some of the last few spots on each team. But i gotta say this whole process has been just a total mess and my biggest takeaway from the backlash that we've seen over the all star game. Backlash let's come from the highest levels of the nba. Where you've had lebron james trash the idea of an all star game janas tend to impo trash. The idea of an all star game player after player who either are candidates to be all stars or automatic all-stars have suggested they want nothing to do with it so my takeaway howard given that this is that is negotiated between the union and the nba is is anybody swapping emails inside the union. Like if your michelle. Roberts and chris paul. Are you not having a conversation with lebron james to make sure that he's on board or at the very that he's not going to go out there and paraphrasing away but call it an incredibly dumb idea like that. That was bizarre to me that you know that there might be players with some reluctance to go to. The all star game is one thing but to see player after player beginning with the biggest star in the nba. Lebron james basically slap this idea down was pretty remarkable to me. It is remarkable. And it's a little puzzling. There's two things. That are puzzling about this chris. one is that lebron james could seemingly at least by the tenor and content of his remarks seemingly be caught off guard by this because chris paul's one of his closest friends. Chris paul is the president of the players association. Chris paul and michelle roberts. The executive director of the players association are the two people whose voices Would be the most important in these discussions with the league so that lebron would seemingly be caught off. Guard is strange the other thing is that something else that lebron said that i think is really important to note. Which is that lebron said. I think speaking all of us. I think there was to be an all star game like when they restarted the season december..
