some cold steve austin on the show today obviously one of the most successful some would say the greatest wrestler ever 6 time w.w. world champ retires 2003 and think he got a hitchin is getting out 2009 the w w e honored him by inducting him into their hall of fame he's the host of the show straight up with steve austin season 2 my next made it to season 2 mondays at 11 pm on the usa network this the s. and l. while mr austin how are you my friend man i'm doing great i proceeded to have known it's been a long term syrian person. that blunk tab listen brother i have to give you thanks as a north texas university you know i'm a pittsburgh boy thank you for gifted us with joe greene who arguably the greatest i don't know there's been lawrence taylor there's a few but you've got to put joe greene on the mount rushmore deep sense of place did you play the line there steve where ya heard enough to play d.

line like joe green did or what did you play you know i went there is a linebacker dennis a number but me on a kickoff coverage i'm a junior season so i really had the rest of the season and i started oh next year and week sad defense of him so i was known to be latin and go back to mean joe green i was such a pittsburgh fan back in the day i was you know only guy in texas that loved the pittsburgh steelers so we sure you know are not my favorite team now. but unload the steelers. now because they were thumping on the cowboys back then all of a cat have played a bank but you know what steve it what i remember in pittsburgh 3 years we had been the laughingstock of the leg and then they drafted this cat numb thing and north texas i don't even know that university and then in the 1st game my man was head up on the center and he just tilted at a 45 an air hole big cat in the backfield i thought i think the whole template has

just changed right there you know and he changed the whole direction of that team right. absolutely well obviously as i said one of the mt rushmore of defensive players as you are in wrestling my friend will get to wrestling in a 2nd but i want to talk about straight up with steve austin not i find it at some point he's interview things if you have him to map out your kind of dead in the lottery it's still to it gets disappointing it gets weird for better or for worse you have to fall back into and see if you can talk to people if you can and it's a fun job if you can't you're probably better off not doing it what's your approach to just talkin faithful nuno it said or saying the way you phrased it and set it up as our gri you know i'm one who you want to be well studied or our research but by the same token if you just don't buy the script how fun is that our game ik you

know sometimes that word is used too much but or what is that so either a combination of the 2 where you can just sit there and have a downer or genuine b.s. session with someone to learn about them or they come from where they're going what they overcame and you know shine a light on oh but i have a true conversation or is not like the detail oriented thing that you know anybody could do and hopefully you know step to some type of relationship with these people and you have some chemistry and it comes through the t.v. screen. yeah you can always tell when an interview if in the latter half of that it's more an evil chat than it was in the 1st half you have established some bond and they're willing to for lack of a better word perform one of those trust exercises with the at least conversationally if if right up front they sense you're just a dance instructor arthur murray putting footprints down on the floor and teaching them the cha cha then they sit in the whole latter half of the interview just turns

into a right if you're going to samba i'm going to samba here is my standard retorts dude and i love the way you phrased your whole career for a lot forever so you know you the way you phrase it is the way it is i agree that thank you now i enjoy the twist here though i know that i've had interviews over the course of my career minnie of them earlier when you sort of needed the publicity more and people would say that like spend a few days with you i always thought well listen i want to i want to be chatty here but i am you know about that because then eventually the veil falls and they get the see maybe things that you're not willing to share with people at large but i do agree that something about getting people just out of you and them sitting across looking into each other's face and grilling. is a good thing and i like your ear approach where you guys go to different cities

across america i'm sure that's been skewed right now because a culbut but i dig that thing where. it's sort of like a roadie it's you're out there with you know dr gonzo in ralph steadman on the road no benchley a chatman it becomes more open right where you know there's owed something in vogue like i've always prided myself and been able to drive anything the will is and i'm sometimes this series of drive anything i want or and so when you take a test like that which i mean or some adrenaline factor to that and then it all is to do an activity whether it's through an axe or darts or whatever and then. there's also a challenge in there but it's all for fun and it's all about you know the show and having fun with them yeah it's a little bit different so it's it's a little it's not like your standard tell it show there's nothing wrong with a standard talk show because i've grown up watching them but yeah this is a little bit different because when you have those activities and you know i'm an adlib guy i don't like to remember anything so this plays right into my hands and.

maybe works for me. you know it's steve you know you're my me of a lot as my dear friend jay leno because he too loves his car as he loves to drive he he used to say to me i'd go jay did 225 gigs last year why do you do it. if i do it every night i don't have to write it that hour which i know it's made me laugh but he also has that word where he would just he was this real thankful you know he has a i find it rob nuts from when they're young which jay was i find them interesting cats i think they're they're out there in their bibble overalls working on their cars under a flashlight late at night and they sort of develop their own personality and later in life i find that they're less needy with the approbation of other people and i kind of like that where you are right now when you're young man you know growing up my 1st car was a 71 pontiac formula firebird and he was either that or my grandmother's

subaru and that firebird. and i had to you have a woman or a bracket. who had a whole car and universe bracketed their brother so i've always been a car fan i continue to be this day and in building this last car that i've been building which has disassembly for camaro z 28 i've had so many headaches hassles and everything to go with it i'm just like i'm done doing this but then i'm going through instagram on all the different channels and a follower all cars and trucks and things are going to build one of those so i guess i'm a poor man's jay leno i mean let's get back to straight up with steve austin you can see what the man's made of hair and i think it'll make for a good chat at doesn't always have to be the algonquin table or no coward sometimes just put it here regular chats stuck in a funny convivial manner and i see some of these guests that i can see the i'm not

the only one who finds this intoxicating season to guess i'll just skip brett farve who i always day and i'll betcha he did it out of mississippi writes the he doesn't like to come out of the bubble and i wanted to go to mississippi because i always like working in the south so it was a match made in heaven. tell me about what i think about a cat playing that many games that are on in my screwed up here did he play close to 300. co-author back it boggles the mind what a what an absolute beastie was you know it true and i was wondering ok man how is this guy going to be after having this kind of career is as it will be our right is going to be a little on the irgun sad because of allah success i walked up to medium you know before like i do before we start to show and. there's like you know him every get that adam and we hit it off like that good we're almost the same age i watched his

whole career i played football i'm a football junkie and he's one of the goats so what can go wrong you know we're out there doing something of like minded guys would do and he was an absolute blast and a real humble guy and salt of the arse. the kind of people you will know what it does when he was the man he had to portray the man and the man was not humble because it's some point you gotta be the guy now that he's in the dotage i use that term loosely but he's not the man anymore aaron's the man i see him increasingly give it up to aaron as being one of the greatest quarterbacks ever and that gives me goosebumps when there was a young kid he looked at and thought this guy could take my job of course he's going to fight like a bandit the keep it but now later in life i see him given it up it's a very classy circle of life sort of thing right you know and i think you know when you're caught up in the trenches and you still have that competition zone you know

you just don't throw too much praise at a guy but as your camp away from the game it's ok to start he met bruce because you've already been there you've done it you're not trying to do it again and hey the kids are also doing a hell of a job so why not now and you know what. it is i think as the school cycle the way it should go when you get out rather when you say did had you obviously 6 times the world champ but had you left it all in there did you feel like you'd gotten all the juice you were going to get out of it no you know because i got dropped on my head long story short i came back at a next usually and i retired up pull myself out of the game at 38 years of age i retired and that's young for professional wrestler i had i had you know 5 years left in a gas tank not withstanding the mc injury so that was really hard for me to do so it took a lot for me to understand you know allan why i had to leave the business and it

took me a long time to deal with it come to grips with it but yeah man but know to look back you know i had a good time to watch you guys and girls go out there know what i'll. well listen you were smart enough to get out when you should get out that man you can't screw around with your neck i always would say to my kids when they're young and they'd like kids i don't know next up next your neck gets broken brother you've got to get out or you're it's a struggle and you know not everybody could be the by the way the undertaker retires more frequently than streisand threats every time i see these retire in the next in dobie undertaken again my man has his play in the long game over there is a date i piggies finally done they had a match at this past wrestle mania because of kobe would you know didn't have the crowd so they had a match that was kind of cinematically through to him and got it a.j. styles and it was phenomenal and i think he got the last one out of the system

family and i think he's good with the r word retirement and it will go on to do something else at a much more relaxed pace but i think he's finally done to us and he's happy on the other side of it i want to talk we'll talk more about the show because some of the other guests assyria unbelievable straight up with steve austin but i wouldn't do want to talk about the pro wrestling ramble and want to give you an unlikely thought from just a fad i am of the hardest part of that you think you'd be going off your back from the top rope leaping off the term block with spit in your head and possibly risking your neck i think there's an even harder part and we'll talk about it after the break with one of the greatest who ever did it 6 time w. debi world champion as you can see a good cat steve austin right after this and then a similar plus a lot. the

war in syria has lasted longer than world war 2. who has been suffering the most almost no doubt in a long conflict regular syrian people. smarter than them when your wife of 20 years you know. i could see everything with my own eyes and hear the stories of its residents one group in particular russian wives of syrian man. who were opposed to look up to his nationalist worlds.

on this edition of crossfire we have a look at translate to see as president of the united states as our politics are so divided we shouldn't be surprised if there are a legacy depending on how you view trump there also can be no doubt he changed america and the president.

hey folks welcome back to dennis miller plus one we're joined by steve austin you know month site obviously inducted into the the be a debbie hall of fame 2009 is the host of straight up with steve austin season at the 2 airs mondays at 11 pm on a good a great network i think usa networks obviously up there at any time i checked cable writing's. seems like it's the top network one of the top 3 certainly and so he's got a good home over there at the usa network mondays 11 pm. i'm torn here i want to let's wrap the show up 1st because i want to talk more about the show of sell the so care a little this guest list in the 2nd season unbelievably talked about brett farve obviously we know where it's going to go charlotte flare we're going to talks

wrestling but then i see you've got country musician luke comes joel mchale who is a gas steve who i've interviewed and i don't know the woman tiffany adage matal me about some of these other guests were to go with some of them and who gin joy and tell me about it i enjoy it all of you know dennis and everybody's got a different story but to be hadash is just lights up funny stand up comedian and she had a breakout movie last year and she's like one of the hottest properties in olive ollywood and shoes she's one of most charismatic people i've ever met you can actually feel it coming up over and i've only met a few people like that in my entire life and she's one of them when you said you talk to steve. yeah i talk to steve on i you can see listen and you can only be in there in the ocean with too many alligators while you've got spam on your growing area before you get wisdom my man seems localizer now you know that message thing

about it i mean all the stuff you know like when jack s. hit years ago it was a thing and this kind of land up about the time i was really hot and there was a method to all the madness and then it kind of went to a dark place and then when you talk to steve oh you would never think that this is a highly intelligent human being just a coolest guy in the world and i would have never guessed that when i was watching that years ago us are going to get as out of his mind that he's so dan burton cooley was just unbelievable and joe mchale is a triple threat right because he can act he can host he can do stand up he's quick as lightning. you know he can do it all ice-t. you know women are just you know because i read the cat walked on as a tight end at a pac 10 school play ball i'm a single it's my mom who did it and when you're going to an ice tea if you have disguised the one question man mega you're sitting under

a learning tree he's got he grew up so hard and it went to the army he got so many stories it's unbelievable and how do you keep going on and on but i think everybody here was bess and you know we went to nashville to do lou combs come from the country music center and he's on fire right now and i'm such a country music fan and i said dude we're told we're going to go mud or go in full grab and what who and that's what we did that kid is a man consecutive number one hits i remember when albums here's the hottest thing in music now is over to cast your i just love it bird cries you're gonna clean your hill of mud that's such a cool way of put it i remember one says that in new orleans state we're talking to steve austin and. we were out one of those flat boats and my man took me down this waterway and then he hung a left up over the mud and we went into this primordial forest and i thought ben there is a whole world out there if you have the right vehicle that you can be privy to that

you had no idea that existed right what do you go modern in our t.v. or what is it one of the. yeah it's going to sound about a sad utility vehicle it was a counter sucky carrick's $1000.00 and man we ripped it up and. we will drive the chute and i told him oh so dude i'm so don't hope you're afraid to get muddy he goes out and so i go i got to really. go there's too much dirt thrown now days folks stick to the money let's leave it at that i think that's what steve's doing over there on straight up with steve austin season 2 airs mondays 11 pm on the usa network let's go back and talk the squared circle my friend you know the thing that i'm amazed that by wrestling i used to take my kids when they were young down to the pond i forget what it's called now don and orange county they used to wrestle don there i remember meeting rey

mysterio was so sweet to my boys that later on in life he had some travails and it broke my heart i found the guys to be super nice backstage but the thing the blew my mind i referred to this in the 1st segment the travel the getting yourself there the hard nights man maybe 2 to 50 that actually seems to me to be the hardest part or wrestling even even the stuff in the rain must be glorious to get to after that the schlapp. you know it is dennis to travel as a grant and i always tell people you're living 3 lives and one body man i want to have your truck driver because you grab and you know what your time to all your pride you know these days these days guys used to tour buses but you're on the road you grab it and then you're trained and you're working like a professional athlete and then and some cases your party like a rockstar so you're burning the candle at 3 s. so the road and all those bumps night after night after night boy they sure add up

and you can you can you can retire rode hard put up what if you're not careful. that's not there is an old willie nelson ladder and you know what when i was doing comedy when i was young we used to get in the time we were eager beavers and we do the schlep but then again i didn't have to run the ring that night but we'd go do a salad check and i remember that fellow eventually but i don't think you can do away with your run through when you're a wrestler right after get there practice some things or does everybody know the drill at some point no you know that's a big dennis you know back in a day you come out everything in the rank and it was ad libbed you did something and based on the response you got meant crowd that then you go home your next decision but you love it it's just you ward off that is like me to stand up you throw some out there oh it ain't workin let me go here and you're manipulating that crowd now it's kind of you know like a hypothesis the way everything in television is kind of sped up now you may get

a chance to talk to each other a little bit but still you know the action is you action but you don't you know practice you know a big wrestle mania or some i get ok but night in night out a man who's my dance partner what are we going to do and you just go out there and you dance and that's that's the reality of it now your nose or what you knows the waiter but it's a day and you go out there you dance to a different too. you know what i find interesting steve is that when i was young and you know i want to sound like the old man in the sea here but i picked spirit when we were kids we really didn't know if bruno was going to beat george steele the secret was less revealed that nowadays i almost feel restless like grand violent opera in a way people kind of know that there's a through lied and that seems as i said my son an ardent fan he loves the

story set almost as much as he loves the match tell me give me some of the jargon what is the story set called is it called the promo or something or what islam is you know it's who just a story line or your angle and you know like you know if you work in and you know you're the good guy and i'm the bad guy well one of us is we're both trying to win so there's a competition but you know you do something across me your emotions on the bad guy let's just say traditional i do so been a screw you over and you lost your belt most amounts of personal issues so a story as you shoot and you cost me a when i'm mad at you. 2 guys can 22 guys or 2 teams can play and you can care about the winona loss but when you really care about that individual as a character because you know them and they have resonated with you and so you love them or you are vile then you buy and that's where all the storytelling comes in

and you know the marriage is great but if you have people invested in those 2 characters you might as well just watch you know a nobody oh game with the true character is going to show there with no emotion you want as much emotion of the crowd as you can get that's what still sticks and that's what draws ratings emotions we're talking to steve austin now leading a more sedate but nonetheless interesting life a straight up steve austin house season 2 airs mondays at 11. on the usa network i'm trying to think when you talk about those laws miles driven and obviously everything's changed people are and all streams now on stuff like that the top end but the guys the middle class they're still out there bused the net who did you like to drive solo or just don't like to drive alone who is your roadie who did you dig meet in the ring give me some of your personal glimpses of cats who meant something to wear your trip today in a minima getting yours you know it's a car full of guys and you know i was lucky to rado ride with some of the referees

and bookers and you know when you're young in a business 3rd they're dropping knowledge knowing you better soak it up like a sponge because they're giving you the keys and you've got to absorb it understand it and apply it and then you start go and you get it with a group of guys because you know now that you're learning now you know but to make no money you need more people in a car to pay for all the gas in the room so you do your palm guys and hotel rooms when you finally make it i'm naturally a little mcquade guy anyway so that's when you start training tournaments solo because you can afford it and you want to be away from everybody so you can have your peace of mind and get away from all. well suppose you tell a cat likes wrestling in movies when instead of saying i'm a loner he says i'm a lone wolf mcquade. bet as i had knowledge there were. hey you know it's the you i was thinking and as i talked i said who does this cat remind me of and he would be a perfect guess you must the chap in him up somewhere or or maybe even had him on

in season one but mike rowe from dirty jobs do you know mike no i've never met him but i'm a man i don't think he's been. good people stevie you would absolutely love him and i would love to hear you to chat it up because you're very similar cats that just regular guys who like busting their ass and having fun along the way yada yada look him up and i will. and. listen brother i'm available of the you get this coven thing behind you will ride the streets of pittsburgh and i'll show you where channel 11 was where they had studio wrestling host of but chilly billy carter billy when i was young and what sock of socks of wrestling and like i said we will talk hopefully on the show straight up with steve austin season 2 airs mondays at 11 pm on the usa network i knew this was going to be fun

i remember thinking this being the easiest interview i do this this month because cats like this easy to talk to good guys funny guys and it's been a blast my friend it's nice to meet you state as nice a sig new and proceeded to help me spread the word about the show and a good friend for many years so keep up the work. thank you brother and. we'll see you on the next dennis miller plus one. fables caution us to be careful what we wish for because it might just come true after 4 years of donald trump the democrats a triumphant lee retaking power in the united states is that a cause for celebration or concern.
