This week's episode
of The Chauncey DeVega Show features
writer Jared
Yates Sexton. This is the second installment of a
two-part conversation.
In this week's installment of
the podcast, Jared and Chauncey talk about their shared love of
professional wrestling, do some fantasy booking for the WWE,
explore how the basics of good fiction writing can be applied to
improve the WWE's current story lines, and have some reminiscing
about the glory days of the (then) WWF and WCW back in the
1980s and 1990s.
During this week's episode of
The Chauncey DeVega Show, Chauncey shares his experience marching
with Black Lives Matter in Chicago and has the good fortune to
interview a white woman who started out saying "All Lives Matter"
and was then persuaded to join the protest. Unfortunately, this
positive interaction was balanced out by how Chauncey encountered a
drunk, racist, and very loud Donald Trump supporter at a local bar
several days later.
Chauncey also offers some
thoughts on the Nice, France terror attacks and the dangers of
radical religion and gives an update on what he learned from the
doctor about his magical and amazing blood.
