This week Johnny has the pleasure of catching up with WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page, and that’s not a bad thing, that’s a good thing! 💎 The two old friends start off the conversation about how they met at the Fuse Fangoria Chainsaw Awards show in LA back in 2006, and how they lost touch for a bit before re-connecting at The Icon Sting’s last match back in March. Johnny and DDP talk about some of their mutual friends, and one in particular that helped their paths cross again - Darby Allin - who introduced Johnny to Dallas’ workout program and health guide DDPY. DDP shares with us some upcoming plans for the company involving a new retreat and a podcast/show idea. Dallas shares some fun stories about his days wrestling including how he got into the industry from managing night clubs and bars in Florida, and what the late great Dusty Rhodes and the Rhodes Family means to him. We hear how close DDP remains with Cody Rhodes to this day and he shares some fond memories of watching the boy become a man become THE Man. With some hot takes on today’s wrestling along the way, we move into the world of acting covering guys like The Rock, John Cena, and of course the man of the hour, the Diamond One. We hear a behind the scenes alternate ending idea to the wrestling movie classic “Ready To Rumble” and what that set was like having actors and wrestlers mingling about in the late 90’s. We could tell you about every part of this conversation here, but that would take too long so do yourself a favor and just go check this one out. Cheers!

Phil and Johnny discuss the metalcore scene from when their bands started gaining traction in the early 2000’s to today, and the release of new All That Remains music. The journey for Phil to this point has had its ups and downs, but through his hard work and dedication not just to the music, but to his fans, he is ready for the band to move forward. The two guys continue to talk about the gratitude they truly feel to their fan bases and detail exactly what it has meant to their careers and the humility in life they find from it. The music talk continues as they get into the record making “business” and give a look behind the curtain to “how the sausage is made” when it comes to dealing with record labels and personalities. Mr. Labonte shares what other activities he’s been filling his time with including podcasting as a regular on the Timcast Podcast discussing politics and pop culture. Although these two may not share all the same views politically, they find similarities and common ground in their opinions and even share some laughs about some of the absurdity in our government and policies. Take it in with a watch, and a listen as these two long time acquaintances become friends. Streaming everywhere all at once! 😎 Become a FILTHY ANIMAL and get access to exclusive content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2qKyxOwoa_Uz5d5xCZEUPw/join Explore More Drinks With Johnny: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/drinkswithjohnny Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drinkswithjohnny Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drinkswithjohnny Twitter: https://twitter.com/drinkswjohnny​​​​ Shop: https://www.drinkswithjohnny.com Learn more about your ad choices.

To kick things off, the boys connect quickly over fatherhood and surfing. Aaron shares a little about his home studio and how he uses it to record different parts of songs.

Humble beginnings are shared of filling Henry Cavill's shoes as a busy boy leads to the hard hitting question of, “How does Superman bone down?” From 80s pop from his mother, to the jazz from his father, and then rounding it with his brother introducing NWA and Pantera, Aaron shares the very broad range of musical styles that will forever influence him.
