The following program is a podcast one.com production from Hollywood, California by way of the broken skull ranch. This is the Steve Austin show. Give me a hell, yeah.

Yeah. Now, here's Steve Austin.

Hi, I'm sitting here talking to the one and only superstar Bill Don B. Hey, Bill. Hey, man, where are you? Where am I talking to you?

Are you right outside of Memphis Tennessee right now? Yeah, I'm in Germantown.

How did you end up over there? After all these years, all the journeys from Scotland, all Australian, and all the time that I met you and worked with you in Tennessee, did you end up where you're at?

Well, I lived in Hendersonville with a baby's mom for 49 years before she got tired of me, so that I'm trying to ex-nade that. Then I gave it to try it again.

I lived in Lexington, Tennessee, and I didn't work out too good, so then I tried it again and lived in Memphis, so I thought I didn't work out too good, so I'm trying to turn 4th time and down here in Germantown.

Now, why did they run you out of Lexington? Well, what was it the law or next wife? That's wife. Well, I mean, I guess they just left.

I was going to have a few of you there in your day, right? Or tried a relationship? I think the only difference between being married and just being together is a piece of paper.

Oh, yeah, I kind of agree with you. I tell you what, I certainly had a few go-arounds with the marriage divorce cycle myself, and it's easier said than done, especially when you come from the business that we come in the business to pro-Russell, entertainment, whatever.

You got that much hassle. You have that much travel, that much, uh, uh, God dang, distractions. Let's call it. Yeah, anything can happen today. It's certainly not making it easy, and the travel is what it is.

You want to buy your family nice things that you have to be gone every day to do it. You know what I mean? You can't be home and make money too, nothing out of business anyway.

Hey, well, what are you doing right now? Because last time I talked to you about a week ago, and I heard you was back with the circus. Of course, you started in the circus way back in the day. So what are you, are you back with co-brother circus?

We'll leave on 18th of this month. I don't want to leave till about that. I'm sorry. It's 17th of this month. Yeah. So I'll actually sign back up and be going. Yeah. So, but two more weeks. I'm sitting right, right this minute watching him play golf on the golf course. I live on the golf course right here.

Yeah, I'm coming to club. Sounds exciting. Build that there. And a country club. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, you don't know how a country club was with a cold kind of blood and driving up and down the road.

How did you? So what's your function within the circus? The marketing director. You know, back in the middle of the day, I would look at the elephant handler. We looked after the elephants back when I did the bullman circus in Australia.

But that was one of us 16 to 18. So now we do the marketing directors. It kind of like the wrestling business. You just say the word circus instead of wrestling. It's all the same thing. You try to get people to come to the show, sell tickets, give them away, do whatever.

Get the ads for radio television, newspaper, TV, whatever. Thanks. And that's what we do nine months of the year, but I didn't go the first six. I'm only going the last three.

Well, how has been on the road these days after spending a lifetime on them? Because how long did you end in ring career? Last bell. Jesus over 30 years.

So yeah, started in 1964 and I'm kind of still doing it. So are you still getting in the ring and having matches? Yeah, still pretty fair.

I'm going to say so myself. Now, do I do the stupidity that some of the kids do today? I want to try to watch some of them wrestling shows. And do you think I know I don't even attempt that? I mean, you know what I mean?

The last time I was going to do that bombs away off the top rope, I climbed up one of the turntable and I looked out and I thought, what am I doing? So I just climbed back down. I didn't know what the people thought, but I didn't dive off. Then you know, I'm stupid. I just climbed back.
