All right. Now, a couple of different things. Mackenzie, I have the book in my possession. I got to tell you. It's on my table in my living room. It's the coffee table book that starts all discussions when I have people on. Okay? Threads of Triumph, your book.

0

68.231 - 87.594 Mackenzie Mitchell

Absolutely, as it should be. It should be on your coffee table. That's where it's meant to go. And I've still been getting so many pictures and videos from people. It's exactly where it needs to be, in their space. displayed on a coffee table or a shelf if you're Natalia. I know Natty has it on her shelf in her living room as well.

87.614 - 108.895 Mackenzie Mitchell

And so it still continues to get love and appreciation and admiration because exactly what you said, it's a conversation starter. It's a different perspective on the industry. It's a different way and a different lens to look at your favorite moments in professional wrestling. So I'm glad it's serving its purpose in the way that I wrote it and designed it to be.

109.263 - 116.493 Dave LaGreca

Well, it's still available on Amazon.com. If no one's picked it up, it's awesome. I mean, the stories, the pictures are fantastic.

116.513 - 118.396

Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books a Million, wherever you get your books.

119.357 - 126.587 Dave LaGreca

Hey, go to Bookstore. Go to Bookends in Ridgewood. Go to B. Dalton. Go to Amazon.com. Wherever you get your books, you can pick it up.

129.512 - 130.132 Mackenzie Mitchell

That's right. That's right.

Chapter 3: How does the weather impact Dave's outfit choice?

135.139 - 169.269 Dave LaGreca

Okay. You got a big moment, Dave. I will be hosting a tailgate watch-along party with Kevin Owens at the Performance Center outside in the parking lot on Sunday. So... I need to know what is the dress code. Now, usually, and I've done it with you, usually I'll wear a suit. I'll wear a suit or a blazer. But now, this is outside, 95 degree weather. Like, what do I wear?

0

169.33 - 173.975 Dave LaGreca

How do I be professional but know what I'm doing at the same time?

0

175.396 - 198.911 Mackenzie Mitchell

For the love of God, please do not wear a suit to Florida in 95 degree heat. I was outside yesterday. Obviously I live in Orlando right down the road from the PC. Um, and it is steaming hot in here and if it rains, it would cool it off for just a second, but it's going to be humid and even nastier and you're just going to be sweating. So first and foremost, I should say, do not wear a suit.

0

199.452 - 206.179 Mackenzie Mitchell

Number two, you need to bring your sunscreen because that's the last thing you want to do is show up looking like a cherry red tomato on camera.

0

206.513 - 232.383 Mackenzie Mitchell

makeup's gonna sweat right off you if you're trying to do like a powder or a foundation or just something to make yourself look good my my best advice would be accessorize and why i say that is get a great pair of sunglasses they can be fashionable um you know feel very like you could go like a skinny sunglasses sunglasses i should say That feels very 60s or 70s.

232.463 - 251.488 Mackenzie Mitchell

You could do like a big pair of sunglasses to make a statement. I think wear a pair of sunglasses. And if not the sunglasses, maybe like a vintage hat. I know they're saying now what's old is new again. So maybe you have like a vintage hat that you could find somewhere. wrestling related or not. But again, you're going to be celebrating America.

251.508 - 269.124 Mackenzie Mitchell

You're going to be, you know, it's great American bash. So you have to wear something red, blue. You could always go denim. You could do the John Cena denim shorts. That could be kind of cool. I think Dave, you could pull off the vintage look for this and feel fresh, modern, and young for great American bash.

269.785 - 283.247 Dave LaGreca

Okay. I don't know about the young part, but I'll try to achieve everything else. All right. So, so Mackenzie, what you're saying, sunglasses, Mm hmm. Vintage glasses. Yeah. Skinny sunglasses, right?

285.09 - 294.621 Mackenzie Mitchell

Skinny sunglasses. I mean, they can be colored or you could just go like just a really skinny pair of sunglasses. I know you wear glasses, but not anymore.

Chapter 4: What accessories should Dave consider for his outfit?

588.869 - 599.468 Mackenzie Mitchell

So if I can bring this knowledge into the industry, I'm very happy to be there. It's something different. It's kind of my own little unique spin on professional wrestling. So Dave, I'm happy to help out in any way.

0

599.617 - 624.125 Dave LaGreca

Mackenzie, I think you've done a lot for the business. Ten years, that's something to be very, very proud of. So congratulations. Slammiversary is a big show coming up for TNA this weekend. But if you have a chance on Sunday, if you could just tune in, and if you see something you like or you don't like, shoot me a text and tell me, Dave, change or take this off or add something.

Chapter 5: Should Dave avoid wearing anything related to Cody Rhodes?

1271.338 - 1274.287 Dave LaGreca

Dude, I got to tell you, I'm a little nervous about Sunday.

0

1274.308 - 1278.36 Tommy Dreamer

I think you're a lot nervous, Sam, because he's not a professional. Where does this air?

0

1278.862 - 1279.885 Dave LaGreca

It airs on The CW.

0

1281.35 - 1290.946 Tommy Dreamer

Okay, because I checked my DVR, and it has just the Great American Bash. It does not have any pre-show.

0

1290.966 - 1310.274 Dave LaGreca

Oh, the pre-show, I believe. So the pre-show will be on WWE's YouTube, across social platforms. Yeah, so it'll be on YouTube, Facebook, all that. And then the show show will be on The CW. And Tommy, it's not the pre-show. It's the countdown to Great America.

1310.395 - 1314.623 Tommy Dreamer

I'm sorry. That's right. I got to remember my company vernacular.

1314.984 - 1316.246 Dave LaGreca

Got to get the verbiage down.

1316.306 - 1320.635 Tommy Dreamer

I'm used to TNA's pre-show, but okay, now I got to switch that.

1320.655 - 1343.437 Dave LaGreca

We don't talk about that anymore because you guys, the TNA cut me out. So I don't talk about the TNA pre-shows anymore. I thought you used to know a guy there. Shit changes. The landscape always changing, Sam. It's always changing in professional wrestling. Sam, I'm looking forward to listening at the top of the hour. You know how much I love it. I appreciate it, man. I appreciate it.
