OOHHH YEAHHH - SNAP INTO IT, because today on Sam Brown University TV, we’re asking the question that separates the CHAMPIONS from the CREAM OF THE CROP:

How old is too old to become a professional wrestler?!

Is there an expiration date on dropping the elbow?
Is the ring only for the young and the hungry, or can a late bloomer like Dean Brown still climb the turnbuckle and HEAR THE CROWD ROAR?

Sam steps into the squared circle with:
Ryan Nemeth - professional wrestler, comedian, and Hollywood’s most shredded poet
Matt McCarthy - comedian and co-host of We Watch Wrestling, a man who knows the history, the legends, and the PAIN, DIG IT

This episode is about heart, timing and knowing when to FIGHT - and when to TAP OUT.

Because in wrestling, just like life, brother…
You don’t quit when you get old,
YOU GET OLD WHEN YOU QUIT.

OHHHH YEAHHH.

Sam sits down with comedian and actor Josh Fadem and creator Luca Schaefer-Charlton to tackle one of the most mysterious forces on the planet: how do you actually go viral?

They dig into why some videos randomly explode, why others vanish without a trace, and whether “the algorithm” is a real thing or just some mysterious god we blame when our posts flop. Along the way, they talk accidental fame, physical comedy, trend cycles, burnout, and what happens when you try just a little too hard online.

Is going viral a skill? A science? A curse? Or just something that happens when you trip in the right place at the right time?
