My friend Dick Masterson & I decided to do something truly stupid: watch all six "Rocky" movies at once, and record a commentary track for all of 'em. You're getting it as a goddamn bonus because I fucking appreciate your support!
You don't need to watch the movies to enjoy this track. It's a big, freewheeling discussion of all things Rocky – listen to it on the way to work, or while beating up a dead cow inside a freezer!
You're probably asking: why'd we watch all six "Rocky" movies at once? Because of another stupid thing I'm doing: a live boxing match with a complete stranger.
A mod from The_Donald named "WarOfTheFanboys" challenged me to a fight, because I'm a liberal who appears on a very conservative comedy show. I don't think he expected me to accept, but I did, because it's just too funny. I've never been punched in the face before, and I've always wanted to see how I'd react. Will my crying be a high-pitched "wah wah," or more of a low, guttural "wauuugh?" Clearly the only way to find out is a livestreamed boxing match with an anonymous internet troll, so here I go!
My training regimen for this fight is to watch a lot of boxing movies, preferably while eating soft pretzels, and take notes. Apparently I'm supposed to eat raw eggs, marry some nerd, and become estranged from my son? I had no idea!
To "supercharge" my routine, and conserve precious time for my "Heroes of the Storm" habit, I watched all six "Rocky" movies at once. That's six times the training! So throw on any Rocky movie, or none of them at all, plug me & Dick in your ear & listen to me learn how to fight...the "Rocky" way!
Also: pray for me.
