This is another difficult post.
After a lot of reflection and soul searching in myself. I’m going to be ending straight talk wrestling podcast, At the end of this year. I have struggled a lot with the passion this year and I just don’t feel it returning. In 10 years I have hustled, I have achieved so much. Not everything I wanted but a lot. I’m exhausted from trying to carve out a spot in this podcasting game. I struggle with imposter syndrome like no one’s business. I also feel there is just too many ego’s and politics in the Toronto podcasting scene. This decison was not easy to make, and I know not everyone is gonna understand this, not everyone is going to care, and not everyone will miss Straight Talk Wrestling. That’s ok, it really is. I had fun, I interviewed some talents that I was an absolute fan of, met some amazing people and have a life time of memories. I’m really ok and ready to let this go. The Ringside 5 is the new passion podcast where I get to just chill with the homie Michelle Araujo and talk classic wrestling with a little current mixed in. Over 400 conversations, over 500 episodes and a life time of memories to look back on. December 2025 I’ll say goodbye to straight talk wrestling. Thank you to anyone and everyone. That took the time to listen, watch, interact. To each and every guest, thank you. You made the child in me smile, and the adult in me cannot be more prouder of what was achieved. To those who know how truly hard this is to say goodbye, tostraight talk. it’s been everything for a long timee but now it’s time to ride off into the sunset. But know I gave everything to this show. I can’t do much more.
