The Steve Austin Show

Vince Russo returns to talk about the squared-circle business with Steve - from the Attitude Era to the new Reality Era (and what that really means). Vince is also talking about current WWE creative, his own philosophy when it comes to story lines and angles, and how the business has changed since his days writing RAW with just himself and Ed Ferrara. And they both offer up some good advice for aspiring pro-wrestlers out there.

Retired Navy SEAL Jocko Willink was commander of SEAL Team Three's Task Unit Bruiser during the Battle Of Ramadi, and received the Silver Star and Bronze Star for his actions in the Iraq War.

And today, he's talking to Steve about BUDs training, Hell Week, discipline, the brotherhood, how he survived deployment away from his family, and he shares a few leadership principles you can apply to your own life and career.

Robbie's also talking about what life was like for the family after his dad's overnight success, his relationship with his father, his father's bikes, ramps, and safety decks, and what it was like dealing with his dad's womanizing on the road.
