This is the Gary V. Audio Experience.

And we are back for another casual conversation with the classic in here today with me is none other than entrepreneur E-commerce legend,

five time New York Times best selling author, CEO, keynote speaker, mastermind or social media.

And I'm saying that from someone who's read your books and used your techniques myself.

And for a lot of you that might not know and what this is all about is a lifelong fan of professional wrestling.

It's true. How are you doing today Gary V.

Gary V. I'm doing very well. Thanks for having me on the show brother.

Thank you for coming on. I really want to do this. I always was fascinated with the fact that you were a wrestling fan.

I know there's a lot of people out there that do know they might have seen your interviews with the undertaker or a staff and make man.

Or will they watch your podcast and they see the figures in the background and stuff.

So I always was like, man, I would love to talk to him about professional wrestling.

And I would love for my audience to know that you are a big professional wrestling fan. You're also part of this extended family that we have a professional wrestling fans.

So I want to start off with asking you like, what were your earliest and first memories of professional wrestling? What made you a fan?

I thought, God, this is so fun to think about because I really haven't thought about it. You know, call it 84.

I'm trying to think about, I don't think I knew about wrestling. You know, don't forget I was born in the Soviet Union.

So I come to the States. I'm three years old and 78.

By 82 is kind of like what I really start saying I became Americanized because it was first fucking four years.

We were poor. Like we barely had a TV. Like there was, you know, so now I'm seven 82 somewhere around eight or nine 83 84.

I think Hogan was already champ. So I don't think I knew he beat the iron sheet in the garden.

But I definitely knew about wrestling prior to WrestleMania one.

So much like most people in their 40s. If they didn't have parents were older siblings that were into wrestling.

They got hooked up in that incredible era of where Cindy Lopper is involved WrestleMania one.
