Podcast One presents the Steve Austin Show Classics.

Oh man, you know what, I just hit the record button.

You know, Shane and I just signed off and I call him back to continue this conversation

and he asked me what got me into the podcast business.

You know, Shane went to left WWF, you know, I flattered for a long time.

You know, when I left the business, it took me three years to really get it out of my system.

And, you know, like I said, I think I told the store last week, I finished,

I drank and I hunted and not necessarily in that order.

Finally got out of the system, you know, all those years later, you know, I moved out to Los Angeles

to get to some kind of entertainment business, ended up falling in love with the round of television genre.

And I always just kind of, you know, had a, you wanted to do something that I could still stay in touch and communicate with my fan base.

And so I thought about doing a podcast because I was starting to realize what they were.

And they'd been around for, you know, three, four, five years.

And so finally, the people of podcast one called my agents and said, hey, man, these guys want to meet with you.

You think you'd want to do a podcast?

Well, I'd been wanting to do one for about a year.

I just didn't have the wherewithal or the impetus or, you know, just the drive to try to work through all the technology stuff.

So, hey, when they call me, I thought it was a great opportunity.

And I just jumped right in and do it, I ain't a pro.

Don't know what the fuck I'm doing. It turns out all right.

But, you know, if the thing about it is Shane, it's just like Guerrilla Radio.

People don't expect me to sound like, you know, professional DJ.
