The feed opens up as we see Christina Jade better known as Chrysalis wearing a backwards snapback, and a t-shirt mocking her first round opponent Christina King that says 'Walk Me Like A Dog', which is something King promised to do to the rookie.
The backdrop was her apartment living room as she was live via Skype.
Chrysalis: What's good everyone? It's your girl Chrys aka Chrysalis aka I'm going all the way to the finals to whip Carnivore's ass...you already know! Today is a lil bit different. You guys know last week I had Keiron Mitchell with me, and he was going to be here today too but he had some last minute biz pop up, but it's all good. I can hold it down.
Christina Jade reaches off camera and pulls a Sprite 20 oz into the scene and holds it up with a grin.
Chrysalis: Today's episode of whatever this podcast is called is brought to you by Sprite...obey your thirst.
She unscrews the cap and takes a drink before sitting the bottle down.
Chrysalis: Nah, it really isn't. I don't obey anything...except maybe the word of the boss man who I actually have joining me today. So let's get right into it, shall we?
A split screen video pops up of the boss of TWC, Zachary Brandon. Chrysalis smiles and then sticks out her tongue.
Chrysalis: Bossman! Welcome to my lil podcast. First off, what's up? Second, how you livin?
Zachary Brandon: I am living great. Thank you.
Chrysalis: Cool. Cool. So, I'm new to this still so bear with me.
The rookie clears her throat.
Chrysalis: Obviously June is a big month not only for you, but for the entire company. With this tournament going on, and all the egos to keep in check, not to mention conducting business as professionally as possible, what's your mindset going into this event? And not to play faves, but do you have any predictions for the winner of the whole thing? Maybe first round winners?
Zachary Brandon: I do not have any predictions for you. But I will mention, egos come and go and my mindset is similar to most, as I am very excited. The competitors in this tournament are some of the best around the world and in the business. I am happy to speak with a egomaniac as well as a well deserved and humble individual.
Chrysalis: I don't think there are any humble people signed to TWC, with the exception of Jan van der Roost, but even he has an ego that he keeps hidden I'm sure.
Sensing the boss was getting right to his answers, she tries to get him to relax a little.
Chrysalis: Okay, before we get deeper into business, Talk that Talk is all about doing just that...talking and not censoring yourself. I might be a lil nervous today doing this with you, because you sign those checks, but I'm still gonna keep it real.
Adjusting herself in her seat, she looks straight ahead at her camera.
Chrysalis: The world doesn't know much about you, Mr.Brandon. So why don't you take this time to tell the world about yourself, and what brought you to the point you're at now, running one of the most talked about upstart wrestling companies in the world. Probably because I signed here, but you know.
Zach chuckles a bit before clearing his throat and continuing.
Zachary Brandon: Well, I was born in New York, but never got to live in the city. I spent the majority of my time in the midwest and the west coast. I attended UCLA for business. A profit I made from a friends start up company brought me the money that is fueling TWC.
I have been a fan of wrestling all my life. I had a chance to meet one of my favorites and they surprisingly killed my vibe about being a wrestler. After that I started to focus on what happened behind the scenes for the promoters and the people in charge. I looked into booking hip hop events, open mic nights, small events, venues, festivals, etc. With the knowledge I have had, I decided to bring a product to the entertainment world. Our events have special invite seating so most of our audience members will be politicians, kings, queens, wealthy people of status, but our events are intended to stream all over the internet.
Chrysalis raises an eyebrow.
Chrysalis: An open mic night? For real? Here, lemme audition for that.
She clears her throat and adjusts her snapback.
Chrysalis: If I said it, it's real, gotta know what I mean...All this talk about Christina, but what's a King to A QUEEN?
Zachary looks at her and nods, not wanting to choose sides, but knowing that his rookie who the world is predicting to be a star just took a very big shot at her opponent, the intimidating Christina King.
Chrysalis: I told you, on this show we TALK THAT TALK.
She slaps her hands together for emphasis.
Chrysalis: We not playing over here! But lemme get back to what else you said, hosting events for the wealthy in person, but the world via streaming. Obviously the internet and social media play a huge part in everything nowadays. Some people are about to criticize you for keeping the diehards at home, and inviting the rich and famous ringside. How do you defend that decision?
Zachary Brandon: It is not a matter of simply, the rich or poor. The ones invited ARE die-hards. None of it is based on publicity. You could very well see TWC invite Tony Blair or Lucas Knight to attend a TWC event at ringside. But that's the not the point. In the times that we live in, majority of this is to keep everyone safe. Some, not many, haven't seen more than 10 people arrive to watch training and walk through. The facility is kept clean and sanitized. Anyone who enters is thoroughly searched, and everyone has a good time, not to mention everyone is paid.
Chrysalis: Okay, I can't hate on that answer at all. And I know you're a busy man so I won't keep you much longer. But I do have a lil bit of breaking news slash an announcement, slash word of a legendary competitor coming to TWC as confirmed by my DMs with said person earlier today. Obviously you sign the checks, and make the final decision...but I know you aren't gonna turn him down. Wanna know who it is before I let you go?
Zachary Brandon: Sure. I am expecting anyone though. So this is a surprise to me.
Chrysalis: So, I went back and forth with this person a lil bit in DM's, and they can speak more on it I'm sure when they officially sign, but the one....the only....
The rookie pauses for added drama before smiling ear to ear.
Chrysalis: ALAN ENVY is coming to TWC! Is he coming just for a match with me? Is he coming to compete full time? I don't know alla that, or maybe I do, but ya girl isn't spilling all that tea! Either way, make sure you tune into TWC.com and keep an eye on all of the official social media pages to to stay in the loop!
Zachary Brandon looks on with a grin on his face, surprised that his rookie talent was able to convince such a name to sign, at least for a match if not longer.
Chrysalis: I wanna thank the bossman for sliding through via Skype to give you guys a lil more info on TWC and himself, and next week Kieron should be back hopefully, and we have Bruce McLeod as our guest so we're gonna pick his brain about the tournament and his 50 year career.
Laughing, she cuts the feed with the boss and looks at the camera.
Chrysalis: I'm just playing, but Bruce will be joining us next week...remember, this is the podcast where you can TALK THAT TALK. It's ya girl Chrys, have a good day!
