Nick kicks things off with pro-wrestling insider Dr. Keith Lipinski from AAW Pro, diving into everything from WWE’s controversial Saudi Arabia deal to what might truly be Goldberg’s final match. There’s also plenty to say about John Cena’s surprise heel antics, and a deeper look at AEW’s packed schedule—including the buzzworthy “Mexico Grand Slam,” already being called one of 2025’s standout shows. Swerve Strickland, Toni Storm, and MJF all get their due in a smart, rapid-fire rundown of what’s hot in the ring.
After the wrestling chat, Nick and Esmeralda Leon catch up on their summers—spoiler: there’s sun, stories, and probably a complaint or two. They take on a few listener questions before swerving into stranger territory: Hollywood’s most eccentric stars. From Joaquin Phoenix’s head-scratching interviews to Shia LaBeouf’s unpredictability, it’s a gallery of oddball fame. [EP 362]
