0:00.0 | Brandon Thurston from Rouslonomics is up next and we're going to follow Brandon with John Pollack from post-Ruffling |
0:08.4 | Thank you. Good afternoon everyone |
0:11.8 | But we can't ignore the math, okay? We can't ignore the data. |
0:17.0 | Go on Google Trend, type in your name, then type in mine. You're a straight line. I'm a pyramid. I like the very direct question on that. Television |
0:26.7 | ratings downward spiral. Fire rage plummeting. The time is now to turn the math around. |
0:34.0 | It is John Pollack and Brandon Thurston coming at you for the third time this week and this is going to be a |
0:46.8 | very important discussion breakdown of everything concerning the lawsuit that was |
0:52.3 | filed on Thursday by Janelle Grant against |
0:55.8 | Vince McMahon, John Lornitist, and W. W.E. |

1:54.7 | This will probably be a very difficult listen for some. I'll speak for myself, Brandon, this was a really difficult |
2:01.3 | lawsuit just to read through and process. |
2:05.0 | I mean, you can be very callous to these stories |
2:07.9 | and that you have been exposed to descriptions |
2:11.5 | and allegations, but I think it you were just left with very little |
2:18.6 | to say other than the shock the horror of a lot of what is alleged in this lawsuit. |
