This episode of ABSURD! covers a wide range of controversial topics, primarily focusing on the recent arrests and allegations involving high-profile figures in the entertainment industry. It discusses the massive amounts of foreign aid sent by the current U.S. administration while neglecting domestic disasters. It also highlights the widespread corruption and hypocrisy within the government and media. Additionally, the focus shifts to rap and hip-hop industry scandals, particularly involving Diddy and his ties to criminal activities, sexual misconduct, and orgies. The narrative also covers how well-known artists like R. Kelly, Jay Z, and even rock icons like Elvis Presley and Jimmy Page were involved in abusive, illegal, and immoral activities which were often overlooked by the public. ABSURD! criticizes society for continuing to support and celebrate these figures despite knowing their dark histories. It points out how the public, media, and entertainment industries are complicit in perpetuating a culture of exploitation and depravity.

Firstly, he and I cover Fast Lane, and the crowd's, AGAIN, negative response towards Roman Reigns, and Disco's thoughts on that. He also gives his thoughts on the current fanbase in general, and the difference between what once constituted entertaining wrestling television, as opposed to how fans think wrestling should be portrayed today. We talk about how he first met Raven, and the birth of the Disco Inferno character. We talk about how he wound up in WCW, and how the fans immediately took to the character. We cover his memorable WCW Saturday Night gimmick, where every week he would try a new variation on his secret "leg hold," and how things that that can be more memorable than actual matches.

Disco then tells us about why Warrior may have been doomed to fail in WCW, and how the same factors may have affected Bret Hart's WCW run.

30 AUG 2015 · Former WCW Television and Cruiserweight Champion Disco Inferno joins Creative Control on our 42nd episode. Disco is also a former member of both the WCW and TNA creative teams, and he isn't shy about expressing his opinions on pro wrestling/sports entertainment today. We actually don't get into too many questions about his in ring career, as we jump right in the WWE's usage of Sting and The Undertaker. and what that says about the business and WWE's ability to get over new talent. We talk about the infamous "wrestling bubble" and how that affects WWE's inability to sometimes see beyond their own faults and mistakes. We go over the effect the "smart crowd" has on the overall presentation today, as well as who is pushed, and how Disco would combat that. We talk about the Monday Night Wars era, how many people were watching wrestling as compared to now, and how wrestling was viewed as "cool" back then, while today, it can sometimes be seen as anything but that. We talk a little about Disco and his work with Vince Russo, both in WCW and TNA, and what he believes has held TNA back from success all along. Finally, we go over the WWE and their "Diva Revolution," and how Disco feels about women in pro wrestling overall.
It's a fun hour long convo. It doesn't follow the basic linear interview format, and instead, it just comes across as two fans who are frustrated and bemused by the things they see presented as "pro wrestling" alot of the time.
Please give Disco a follow on Twiiter @TheRealDisco and hopefully he will return sometime in the future so we can touch more on his in ring career.
