Eddie Kingston is an American professional wrestler currently signed with AEW (All Elite Wrestling). Kingston is a twenty-year veteran who has wrestled for and held championships in leading promotions all around the world including New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and Ring of Honor (ROH).

Eddie Kingston reflects on his life journey and decision to be open and vulnerable about his struggles to be a more mentally and emotionally healthy man as shown by his widely-read and viewed essays, social media posts, and videos in support of mental health and suicide prevention.

Chauncey DeVega and Eddie the “Mad King” Kingston also talk about the lost art of “kayfabe”, promos and authenticity, and the importance of storytelling and the human dimension in the drama that is professional wrestling.

Chauncey DeVega continues to sound the alarm that Kamala Harris is likely going to be defeated by Donald Trump and feels a deep disturbance in The Force from Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden hate festival.

Chauncey is also very exhausted from doing battle with local slumlords and other life travails and is blessed to encounter a real-life superhero.

Hal Brown is the guest on a special bonus segment for this week’s podcast. He is a clinical social worker and was one of the first members of the Duty to Warn group.

Hal Brown has extensive expertise in working with multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder). His daily essays on American politics and society can be read at his eponymous blog here.

Hal Brown reflects on his four decades of experience as a clinician and shares some advice and insights about managing our emotions, trying to be healthy, and doing the things that make us happy as a way of fighting back against despair and surrender when our society (and personal lives) often feel so dark and dire.

Hal Brown was in transit, and we spoke via phone. The bonus segment can be listened to at the end of the podcast.
