This week The Workers begin their discussion of Tammy "Sunny" Sytch's book, A Star Shattered.  From just a "nerd but HOT" to being the first WWE Diva this book she wrote as a tie in to her VIVID porno is going to give her side of things and wouldn't you know it she's writing it while in prison.  We meet Chris Candido, we learn how she got the name Tamara, and how do we feel about adult women calling their father "Daddy."  Wilson could not find Larry's reddit review of Sunny Side Up.

The Workers watched the extended edition of Lord of the Rings:  The Two Towers.  Wilson is under the weather but toughing it out, about as tough as boiled jerkin.  Larry is sleepy and thinking about streaming and Kerri is here to correct all the wrong.  Vince Russo's JCW exit is also discussed.  Next week we finish our journey to Middle Earth with Return of the King.

*AUDIO FIXED*

We're between books and we're talking Lord of the Rings:  Fellowship of the Ring.  Every dang actor in this thing is discussed, what's Sauron's deal, and more.  Wilson didn't like it when it first came out over 20 years ago, Larry's never seen it, and our guest (Larry's wife) quite enjoys it.  Next week we continue the rings journey - The Two Towers.

The Workers wrap up their discussion of Vince Russo's Total Nonstop Agony.  This week, Russo plays the blame game, dreams turn to nightmares, and he's surrounded by enemies.  A lot of telling on yourself occurs.  Russo hasn't changed; the world did!

Next week a break before the next book.  We will discuss the first Lord of the Rings.  Wilson doesn't like them, Larry's never seen them, and possibly a couple of super fans.

The Workers continue their discussion of Vince Russo's Total Nonstop Agony.  This week, Russo gets ousted from TNA and is on the hunt for marks to work for him but also hates marks, shares what he's a mark for, and just to be clear he's not a racist or a sexist or anything really you could ever pin him down on, he just is and if you have a problem with that - you're a mark.

The Workers continue their discussion of Vince Russo's Total Nonstop Agony.  This week there's a lot of crying and praying, we discuss Russo's singular psychology as he leaves TNA, his turbulent food franchise adventure, and Russo's petty gripes with the poor soul that showed him the world of podcasting.

The Workers are back with news on folks we've covered.  Hulk Hogan's death is a never-ending mystery, who defended Paul Levesque from MVP's insults?  Should Mick Foley wrestle and was Jesse Ventura a SEAL?  Then we continue our discussion of Sean Oliver's The Transfer.  Jason the Son is back, we get a stacked detective and a dancing detective, there's netflix and no chill, and we go to the supermarket.  It's all very stupid.

The Workers are going through it as they continue their discussion of Sean Oliver's The Transfer.  So many plots, so many characters, so much telling and a few dumb sentences.  It's enough to make Trevor tap.  We're halfway through and we have no idea where this is going.  After the book discussion Larry and Wilson listen to some Late Nite Poems and do some pro wrestling talk quick hits.
