WrestleMania 42 is HERE… and yeah… I’ve got some thoughts. 😤

In Episode 7 of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I’m breaking down the official WrestleMania 42 match card—the big matches, the stories, the ones I’m hyped for… and the ones that have me raising an eyebrow 👀

But before we get into all that, we kick things off with the Dad Life Debrief—because life as a dad doesn’t stop just because WrestleMania season is here.

From there, we talk about why wrestling still hits the way it does… even now. The nostalgia, the moments, and why this stuff sticks with you over time.

Then we dive into the FULL card:
 🔥 Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton
 🔥 CM Punk vs Roman Reigns
 🔥 Rhea Ripley vs Jade Cargill
 🔥 Seth Rollins vs Gunther
 🔥 And more…

With predictions, hot takes, and a few “what are we doing here?” moments along the way. 😂

If you’ve been watching all year—or you just show up for WrestleMania—this episode is for you.

What makes a movie a comfort movie?

Is it nostalgia?
 Is it familiarity?
 Or is it just that feeling you get when you press play and know exactly what you’re about to experience?

In Episode 6 of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, we’re diving into the movies we keep coming back to — the ones that feel easy, familiar, and just right no matter the mood.

But this time, there’s a twist…

This list isn’t just mine. It’s a mix of my comfort movies and my wife’s — and I’m not telling you which is which.

As you listen, see if you can figure it out.
 Which picks feel obvious?
 Which ones surprise you?

And maybe more importantly… which ones did you get wrong?

This episode covers everything from nostalgic comedies and sports underdogs to cozy, feel-good favorites and unexpected picks — proving that comfort movies don’t follow one formula… they follow feeling.

🎧 After you listen, I want to hear from you:
 What are your comfort movies?
 And which ones do you think were mine vs. hers?

What happened to action heroes?

There was a time when they were unstoppable.
 No fear. No weakness. No explanation needed.

They showed up… and handled it.

But somewhere along the way, that changed.

In this episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, we take a deep dive through the decades—from the larger-than-life icons of the 80’s, to the charismatic rebels of the 90’s, the grounded professionals of the 2000’s, and today’s more relatable, human heroes.

This isn’t just about movies.

It’s about how our idea of strength has evolved.

Why we used to admire perfection…
 and why we now connect with struggle.

Along the way, we break down some of the most iconic action stars of all time, share behind-the-scenes insights, and build a Mount Rushmore of action heroes that represents the evolution of the genre.

So the question is…

Which era are you choosing?

And who’s on your Mount Rushmore?

Parenthood is a journey that constantly changes.

In this episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I reflect on raising my three kids—a four-year-old, a thirteen-year-old, and a nineteen-year-old daughter—and how each stage of life requires a different parenting approach.

From the challenges of building trust with a teen who has experienced trauma, to the heartwarming moments with my daddy’s-boy four-year-old learning to trust Momma, this episode explores the realities, growth, and lessons that come with parenting.

Because sometimes the most important thing a parent can do is simply keep showing up.

Episode 3: Villains Then vs. Now

What happened to great villains?

In this episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I take a fun look at how villains have changed from the classic bad guys we grew up with to the darker, more complex villains we see today. From the over-the-top personalities of the past to modern characters like The Grabber and President Snow, villains aren’t just evil anymore—they’re layered, calculated, and sometimes even a little relatable.

Along the way, I share some thoughts, a few laughs, and maybe a couple of slightly wise observations about why these characters stick with us.

Are today’s villains better… or do we just miss the simple days when you knew exactly who the bad guy was?

Grab your coffee (or whatever gets you through the day) and let’s talk villains.

What does 42 really look like?

In this episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I reflect on the lessons I’ve learned over four decades of growing, adjusting, failing, and figuring it out as I go.

From how times have changed…
 To why mentality matters more than milestones…
 To learning when to say no, ask for help, and protect your peace…

This isn’t about having life mastered.

It’s about perspective.

Because 40 isn’t the finish line.
 And it’s never too late to grow.

The 80s had better movies. I said it.

In this kickoff episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I’m ranking my Top 10 80s movies of all time — based on one simple rule: rewatch value.

If I’m not casually putting it on when I’m bored, it doesn’t make the list.

We’re talking iconic moments, unforgettable villains, legendary soundtracks… and a few hot takes that might raise your blood pressure.

Yes, I said E.T. is overrated.
 And no, Die Hard is not a Christmas movie.

From Back to the Future and The Empire Strikes Back to The Karate Kid, Ghostbusters, and more — this is nostalgia with a little debate mixed in.

Drop your Top 3 and let’s argue respectfully.

Stay mostly you… and occasionally wise.
