• The Legendary Jimmy Hart: "The Mouth of the South" kicks off the show exclaiming his excitement for RCWC! Jimmy dishes on the phenomenal setup, praises the professionalism of organizers Nick and Sam, and breaks exclusive news regarding a massive September comeback album from his Billboard Top 10 group, The Gentrys. Plus, Jimmy shares touching reflections on his late, great friend Hulk Hogan and looks back with gratitude on his blessed, hall-of-fame career.

• RCWC CEO & Founder Nick Bateh: The architect behind the convention details exactly why 2026 is their biggest and best year yet. Nick highlights crucial partnerships with Farah & Farah, Scott Johnson, the Going Ringside podcast, and Duke Loves Rasslin handling worldwide media and brand growth. Get the inside scoop on what to expect at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Florida, alongside a massive thank you to the fans, legends, and local partners.

• That Dude Jon Davis: Things get intense as Jon Davis and Duke trade heavy verbal shots over the upcoming live wrestling action. With Duke firmly standing on Team Noah Veil, Jon Davis issues a major physical warning to The Duke if he keeps running his mouth, promising to settle the score just like he plans to do with Noah Veil to claim the crown of RCWC.

• The Last Leroy: One of the funniest people on the planet joins the program! Comedian, gamer, podcaster, and military veteran The Last Leroy steps up to react to Duke's wild claim that he can dunk on NBA sensation Victor Wembanyama.

Can you feel the history in the making? The 3-time award-winning duo is back with another blockbuster episode of Devon & The Duke! This week, the guys are dropping heavy truths, legendary wrestling retrospectives, and dissecting a chart-topping musical milestone that defies belief. Put your headphones on—you do not want to miss a single second of this audio experience.

• The Great Wemby Debate Continues: Devon wastes no time setting the record straight, once again affirming that Duke is absolutely out of his mind for thinking he can actually dunk on Victor Wembanyama.

• NBA Finals Predictions: With the championship on the line, Devon lays his loyalty on the line and explains why he is pulling hard for his hometown New York Knicks to bring the Larry O'Brien Trophy back to the Big Apple.

• A WrestleMania Moment with Leilani Kai: Duke takes us behind the curtain to detail a phenomenal backstage meeting where wrestling legend Leilani Kai was genuinely surprised that Devon knew exactly who she was.

• Put Respect on the Glamour Girls: Devon breaks down his immense professional respect for the iconic duo of Leilani Kai and Judy Martin. He lays down the ultimate law for the industry: if you are in the wrestling business and you don’t know who the Glamour Girls are, you should be completely ashamed of yourself.

• Drake's Historic, Biblical Month: The conversation shifts to global superstar Drake and his mind-boggling, history-making chart dominance. Duke breaks down the statistical madness of Drake dropping three albums at the exact same time, locking down the number 1, 2, and 3 spots on the charts, and occupying 42 of the top 50 songs in America.

• Preparing a Table Before the Enemies: Reacting to the numbers, Devon points out that this unprecedented run is clearly biblical—a literal manifestation of God preparing a table for Drake to sit, feast, and prosper right in front of his enemies.

• More Life and More Success: To wrap it all up, both Devon and Duke offer their massive congratulations to Drake on a monumental, record-breaking achievement, wishing the hip-hop titan nothing but continued success and "More Life"!

Whether you are a die-hard professional wrestling insider tracking the history of the business, a hoops fan looking for raw NBA Finals analysis, or a music head trying to comprehend Drake’s statistical dominance, Episode 72 delivers the definitive perspective you won't get anywhere else.
