Hey everybody, some quick notes before I start the live podcast from the Chris Jericho

Cruise, the art of wrestling isn't gone. I am going to be trying to do a bunch of live ones

with AEW including during the fanfests. The plan as of now is to do at least one from Minnesota

before full gear, so please stay tuned to the podcast feed. Also, don't forget about wrestling

anonymous. That's my weekly Colin Hotline show where wrestling fans call in their stories

of anything pro wrestling. Because I was busy on the cruise this week, I actually unlocked some

of the Patreon calls for this week's episode, which is the perfect segue to my Patreon.

All the episodes of the art of wrestling are ad-free at my Patreon for only four bucks a month.

For $5, you will also get two bonus Patreon call-in shows of wrestling anonymous. For $10, you can add

a monthly vinyl sticker and I'll handwrite the envelope and give you a funny nickname. I'm pretty

sure I'm losing money on that tier at this point, but it's still very fun to do. And for $20,

I'll send and sign a new swear word to you every month. Collect them all. Coltmerch.com is the

usual. There's some critical botch comic books and some pen toppers. Still have that Yanoo and

Colt autograph picture available. The limited run cruise shirts did sell out, so thank you to everybody

who bought those on the boat. The boat was so much fun. I think the highlight was a madlibs that I

wrote and Billy Gunn had to read it in front of a full theater. And then we wrestled the next night

on the ship and everyone played off that ridiculous madlib story. You'll hear how much fun the ship

is in the podcast itself. So other than that, I love doing these live episodes. Thanks for keeping

the show alive. I'll see you over at Wrestling Anonymous. And for now, let's start the show.

I'm going to start with a personal wrestling podcast. It's an entryway into the minds of souls,

the hearts and lives of the people involved in the world of professional wrestling. I am your host.

My name is Colt Cabana. Hello. I am a podcaster. I am a seaman. Yes. I am a twitch streamer.
