Sean, The “I’m Sorry/Not Sorry” reference is to the classic Cheech & Chong movie “Cheech & Chong’s Nice Dreams” from 1981 when they go into the Psychiatric Hospital & look for “The Hamburger Man” played by Paul Reubens aka Pee Wee Herman.

never mix any type of pill with alcohol or it could be fatal. your heart doesn't know whether to speed up or slow down. it's like driving while constantly pressing the brakes. if you're on medication wait until you're sober.

I've been sober and clean for a long while now, it's not even a question, temptation or anything, but man, I always love hearing and talking crazy drug stories. "A to the Z bubba" 🤣 And I know, I've lost friends to it too, but I can still laugh and enjoy the non-death moments. There's nothing like experiences such as telling a doctor or emt what you ingested and seeing the looks on their face how their minds cannot fathom how you're alive 🤣

Why did they call him back though? The hospital said he was good the night of so why the call back. I legitimately think they knew he was rich and could run up an astronomical bill on him so called him in for no reason. The American Healthcare system is evil.

Is it just me or does he seem to be Soma'd here? Now, as a fan, I know he is not, because he keeps it 100, if he was on Somas, he'd probably pop them on camera,. But, he definitely smoked some good shit. I'd love to hear his go to bud, or does he mix it up depending on his schedule that day. This is definitely the aftermath of a big ass bowl.

Kevin Nash, you are one of the coolest and most likeable guys in an industry with a lot of dicks. I thought you were probably one of the dicks because of the reputation of the Klique and whispers about you as a booker in WCW. But just seeing you on this podcast and other interviews, I definitely like you a ton more now and am appreciative of you telling all these stories. God bless, Kevin and thanks for giving us a peek behind the curtain.

You know Starrcade was WCW’s version of WrestleMania right ? Do you think WWE look at things like “we’ve got Rhodes/Reigns and a few other matches so let’s do Rollins/McIntyre at Backlash and then Zayn/Gunther a couple of months from now” ?
