It really fascinates me, Tom. I cover Butterbean and crotch bulges in the serious manner of a vintage Inside Sports writer, while other "kids" in their thirties "do the work" and just run wild on extremely complicated topics. I'm sure

Oh absolutely. You're really well educated and obviously know a ton about wrestling so it works really well. I really enjoyed the Butterbean interview you had. But you're absolutely right too is we have folks who don't know anything acting as if they can fix this earth hahaha

He and Brian Powell are tired, so tired. Powell has been eating out on a single “Lana del racism” hot take for years, it seems, his version of “trump is gaslighting us” (though what the hot take is about beyond the title is never explained)
