[@TheMookie1590]

mom said it was my turn with the gold medal.

[@joelperez3159]

He already got a real one my friend

[@jameswesten2018]

Wow what an amazing story. I been a fan of Angle's since WWF but I never knew any of the things you guys talked about his life and during his training. Kurt really did succeed against all odds he could've so easily went another direction as so many of us have that were gifted athletes with a ton of potential but didn't have the family support ,opportunities or the mindset to succeed. Thank you for sharing & for telling the story so well

[@RussKline-x8p]

Just ask him

[@touyang1687]

It’s funny that Kurt purposely skipped over how he met his first wife. He should have told that story….she was an exotic dancer haha

[@Gravles]

This is one of the best Kurt Angel “interviews” I have ever seen. As someone who is a huge pro wrestling fan, it’s actually really refreshing that you guys couldn’t just ask him about the WWE the entire time. You really got down to who Kurt is as a person and it’s fucking awesome.

[@braveboi34__27]

Kurt is a beast and an American hero. Thank you for putting this together. You're both legends.

[@JulianDorey]

I'm glad we could do it!

[@chrisburke624]

I met Kurt Angle like 2 weeks ago at a local wrestling show here in Edmonton, Alberta Nice guy! Solid guy! 5 broken necks & a bunch of injuries, and my gut feeling was that he could easily kick the shit out of almost anybody lol

[@MONKeEeYboi]

I think I’m your target demographic. Ufo’s, wrestlers and CIA stuff. I’ve never found a channel that cover all my interests but still manages to turn me on to more subjects. Bravo, Sir. 👏👏👏👏

[@i_am_yahouza]

Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way

[@JulianDorey]

hahahaha I love to hear it!

[@4thdimenional]

I totally agree

[@matthewstephenson9444]

Lolol u aint lying

[@daryllschmidt7419]

People don't give him enough credit for how great he was. I love his honesty about his life. Mistakes and all.

[@bradpeterson7957]

I met him twice. First time at an Indy Show. Second time at a TNA house show. First time, he was so out of it he couldn't speak. I was in the locker room that night. I saw him take a big handful of pills. And wash them down with vodka. I felt so bad for him. I kept thinking, he's die pretty soon. How he signed autographs and took pictures in the ring for the kids is beyond me. I thought after that night. I'll never see him again. But him the unbelievable human being that he is. He kicked the pain pills and I caught up with him again about six years later. At the TNA house show. And He was a completely different person. I was able to get in the ring and talk to him for a little bit. And take a picture together. He's got to be the toughest man in history to survive all of that. He's a good guy and I'm happy that was able to defeat his demons.

[@grantjohnson952]

Kurt definitely has the most intense eyes I have ever seen.

[@triunity686]

They didn't call him Perc Angle for no reason 😂

[@PAstoneCABINrookie1]

His stories on overcoming addiction is so inspiring. Love ya Kurt

[@JulianDorey]

Agreed

[@randybass6679]

I was not a huge fan of Kurt when in WWE, once listening to this and hearing the real Kurt, Nothing But Respect For You Kurt. Thank you for representing in the Olympics and Entrainment in WWE.

[@NickTowe-i3j]

This is one of the best interviews you have done! It really touched me because I’ve also had a very long battle with addiction and am now in recovery. I’ve been sober for almost 2 years so this really touched me deeply

[@Leveragewithmediapr]

This is so amazing! Thank you for sharing! Kurt has an amazing story and shares so much hope!

[@i_am_yahouza]

This was a great trip down memory lane as Kurt Angle fan and a WWF/WWE fan. It was fascinating to hear the backstory of his Olympic career from his prospective. Another A+ interview.

[@JulianDorey]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@johncook9392]

In my personal opinion, Kurt Angle is the greatest professional wrestler of all time!

[@Dontcrywittle1]

This was 100% the best wrestler podcast I’ve heard to date. Kurt is the perfect guest. He’s honest and doesn’t mind getting into everything he has ever experienced. This was definitely like you guys had been friends for years and reconnecting.

[@pauljmcmillan]

This pod was amazing. Kurt is a legend man. A 3 hour rollercoaster of emotions. Thanks

[@nunchuksteev9811]

This was unbelievable. You forget that the goofball wearing the tiny cowboy and drinking milk for WWE was and is a true savage, a real shooter.

[@YoureNotReet]

Kurt is Certified Legendary Badass

[@BobBarkerScientificHeretic]

Honestly, I am surprised with how down to Earth and humble Kurt Angle seems in this interview, maybe it's his "Heel" character from the Production Wrestling that is the reason I expected something different lol. Best of Luck to Kurt's daughter who is perhaps taking up an Angle legacy, nice. Great interview, Dorey and crew

[@mc4056]

Can't believe you got Kurt! Can't wait until you start pulling some of these big guests your interview style is much better than most podcasts!!

[@JasonNapier-v3x]

Another great interview Kurt freaking Angle!!

[@JulianDorey]

Thank you Jason!

[@braxtonvestal777]

So glad kurt seems to be in a good place again.

[@JulianDorey]

Awesome to see

[@deanlowndes4647]

Kurt is a super interesting guy with a great story. very inspiring coming through all that adversity that life there at him and still here to tell the story .

[@channeldeleted2946]

I have been in awe of Kurt Angle since I was a small boy. Dealing with some of my own struggles as a young man, he was a light in the dark for me about how even the toughest of the tough, the best of the best, can still falter. This is easily the best podcast I have seen him on and you were a great interviewer. Subscriber gained, you are an actual breath of fresh air man.

[@restoredaccess]

Kurt was maybe five years away, era-wise, from going the mma route and becoming a ufc legend.

[@The_Zilli]

*chants* You Suck! (wrestling fans will know) Legend in the ring.

[@JulianDorey]

hahaha

[@jasonsklenar]

I 100% chant “you suck” in my head while I watched this Because that’s how fans of this Hall of Famer, My Rushmore, GOAT shows our respect and appreciation for what he has done to inspire and entertain.

[@chuckweber542]

Kurt is absolutely a legend.what a incredible wrestler and person.the fact he was injured 90 percent of his career and was still one of the greatest ever is amazing.

[@matthewalkman386]

Prime Kurt was 2000. You can tell he began roids in 2001 around WM17 and he was never the same again. Got bald fast, still had decent 2002 run, but once Smackdown 2003 yes he was good, but opiod out, lost a lot of mass, broken necks, etc. the WWE ruins you and steroids definately do.

[@johnnieriot13]

Bro his peak was in TNA at least his professional wrestling peak was. He was a monster. You should check out some of those matches

[@matthewalkman386]

@@johnnieriot13 im talking about his entire package - from his look to his charisma. in TNA he had no charisma. just another tough guy. snoozefest boring. but yes, great matches.

[@Drollpanther]

@@matthewalkman386literally no one thinks that. You are the only one. Perc Angle was one of if not the greatest wrestler of all time

That he is!

Always love your episodes and appreciate the time and energy you guys put in to bring us this content, thanks yous. Knew a bit about Kurt's story as a wresting fan but amazing job Julian...as someone who has addiction issues and got past most , Kurt's honesty and words rung so true . Another video I saw 9 yrs ago helped me with my problems and I'm sure this video will help people. seeing such a legend admit and explain it so well, thank yous again and thanks Kurt

[@gaetanozorzi2055]

A six mile run in 35min as a warmup, it’s just insane

I remember Dave Shultz being murdered. He learned Russian so he could train and understand Soviet style wrestling. Everyone has nothing but respect for the memory of Dave Shultz. The Slyfox was one in a million. Thanks Coach, I had a blast…

Nailing it again Julian ! Thanks so much, the best content always 😊

[@mcfarlandbrothers2209]

by far the best kurt interview I've ever seen

[@jamesvaughn3796]

This was a great episode Julian. Kurt is an awesome guy. I can remember watching him in wrestling and at first no one liked him bc it was set up like that but then he was a staple in pro wrestling. The fact that he really won in the Olympics was really cool watching him in pro wrestling. That ankle lock was vicious

[@JoseGuzman-ne3pk]

WWE should bring Kurt Angle and Stone Cold for one last segment that would be great to watch.

[@ATAInc1]

Great interview and Kurt Angle is a great guy. Very nice job in just letting the interview flow to non-obvious topics.

Kurt Angle was one of the last wrestlers I enjoyed watching before I quit watching wrestling back in the day. Good to see him still going strong. Broken Neck....YIKES!!

[@broccolilockley]

This podcast looks like the Joe rogan studio but backwards

[@DerredmaxTRIAX]

Thank you Kurt for everything! Thanks Julian.....

[@Dontcrywittle1]

As an athlete myself you do everything you can to stay in and win no matter the pain. You learn to compartmentalize it in your mind and the adrenaline takes over and you don’t feel it until that fades. But a broken freaking neck and still beating olympians I can’t even imagine the level of pain he had. I tore my knee apart and that was bordering on torture but a neck just unreal the kind of man Kurt is. They don’t make them like him anymore

[@georgecoull1883]

Awesome! I'm from Pittsburgh and I worked for Kurt's cousin and his other cousin Rob is a state police officer. Great people!

[@paullewis1219]

This really did go quick. Great interview. Really enjoyed it.

The eyes don’t lie

[@kyledamron]

Kurt is one of my heroes for so many reasons. He's just the man

[@salvatoredeluca0810]

I watched him tell his story about EVERYTHING he went through and the exhaustion training for months on end and when they were about to announce the winner his opponent tried to raise his hand and he said his first thought was I can’t come this close I gotta try this again! That’s when I loved this guy! He of course would have his hand raised as The Gold Medal winner so no need to do it again thank God but to be willing to do that all over again?! That is bad ass!

[@randyphillips6506]

This was an amazing interview

[@yelnaw]

Yes mate! More interesting grapplers like Kurt please.

[@rubenr.mossdc4070]

It’s sad to see the momentarily loss of focus and train of thought Kurt experiences periodically throughout the video. Physically and Mentally withering say, horrible. Thanks for the memories Kurt 🫡🇺🇸🥇

LFG

Exhaustion training is the way. I learned that you’re only starting when you think you’re exhausted and that what separates you from everyone else. That mental fitness is what kept me alive while mountaineering, not technical skill.

I like when he talks about how he finally beat Mark Kurr and says in the most non chalant way “ I started doing exhaust training it’s basically a form of torcher” then just immediately moves on

Dude this is amazing I’ve learned more about Kurt than I ever knew and I thought I knew a lot lol

[@COYBIG1967]

I love Kurt , he’s a hero, and he looks in great shape but in the last hour I start seeing what I see in so many of my wrestling heroes, “what were we talking about” ? … I’m really staring to get to the point where I wonder if it’s worth it. I of course hope that he will be ok for a long time . Great interview. Honestly didn’t know anything about Julian at all tbh and found his channel a few months ago and he’s really one of my favourites now, he’s got a fantastic interview technique

[@Trek.2715]

His coach is murdered by a psycho billionaire, then he breaks his neck and still wins the gold metal... such a badass 🇺🇸

[@LHBH8]

The fact Rogan didn’t discuss Foxcatcher with Kurt is embarrassing.

[@dustinwb84]

Kurt angle needs a tv series about his life.

[@dpezz1989]

I never knew when I was a little kid watching him in the WWF that he was a real Olympic wrestler

[@nickloks]

Normies like Julian don’t understand how important guys like this, Austin, Bret were to so many of us who were kids growing up watching these dudes. The real super heroes are these wwe guys from 20-30 years ago

[@IbnRushd-mv3fp]

I'm gen z and wrestling was still really popular when I was young, sure it wasn't the austin & rock version of WWE but we had brock lesnar, john cena, randy orton, HECK even a whole bunch of stories still involving the undertaker and kane.

[@IbnRushd-mv3fp]

Heck "perc angle" didn't come about until the 2000's when he was wildin out.

[@C4m4r0]

Sports burnout is such a problem today. Biggest one I saw was a kid in my hometown in golf. He was winning adult tournaments at the age of 11 and 12 and shooting under par. But his dad made him practice everyday before school so he could go pro and the kid ended up turning down a full ride because he just didn't want to play competitive anymore.

[@Goldenpocket-rf3bu]
