His father offers up another alternative, pointing out that if Russo wants to quit watching and covering wrestling he can move back in with him, or start selling insurance or appliances like he did over two decades ago.
Russo’s father informs that he got very drunk at a party when he was 20, and he spent the entire night throwing up. That was such a miserable experience that he hasn’t had one drink since. His father compares how miserable he was that night to how Russo must feel when he’s watching wrestling, and he suddenly understands where Russo’s coming from.
Russo thanks his father for the advice. He’s unsure which alternative he will choose yet, but he either has to suck it up, take pills to get through it, or give it up altogether and move back in with his father and sell insurance. He’s not really fond of any of these choices.
That sums up today’s episode of Vince Russo’s The Brand. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
