Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis

From DoorDash doubts to WWE’s creative reset: Teddy Long and Mac Davis talk food, fans, and fixing storytelling


Listen Later

A Saturday night melody turns into a sharp look at trust, taste, and the stories we buy—whether it’s dinner at the door or a main event on TV. We start with the simple question of who handles your food and end up unpacking who handles the creative that’s supposed to hook us for two hours. From locker room wisdom about fan‑brought dishes to a true tale of food poisoning on the road, the theme is the same: standards matter, and so does accountability.

We dig into WWE’s rumored creative shakeup and spell out what’s actually missing: hot opens with purpose, cliffhangers that carry through the entire show, and long‑term booking that rewards weekly attention. Teddy explains why on‑screen authority only works when it feels real—tone, consequence, and timing—while Mac maps how segment‑by‑segment programming killed momentum. We talk ticket prices, fan value, and the need for coherent storytelling that respects a modern audience.

There’s love for the indie scene, too: promoters who do it right, veterans who put local talent over, and regions like Georgia that are wide open if someone protects finishes and builds a local identity. We wade into women’s hardcore wrestling with respect for consent and a clear line on safety; there’s a difference between controlled danger and reckless spectacle, and fans can feel it. Along the way, we keep it human—pineapple on pizza, a treasured ’64 truck, running gags with the live chat—because community is the heartbeat of wrestling and why we show up every week.

If you want sharper storytelling, real stakes, and a product that earns your time and money, this conversation lays out the playbook. Tap follow, share with a friend who misses cliffhangers, and leave a review with your boldest fix for weekly TV—what would you change first?
