The Rock: Vulnerabilities, Being a Girl Dad, Future of XFL & How Wrestling Saved My Life | The Pivot

Bro there's no way yall got The Rock. The man does NO podcasts. Can't wait to hear this.

You can tell The Rock really wanted to be there and he genuinely enjoyed their company.

Just found out I have cancer. Watched this show as a huge fan for over a year now when I first moved to Texas. These men give me strength through this. Lfg, gives me so much motivation hearing them speak!

Whatever you think of The Rock, I’ve always loved how he never, EVER turned his back on wrestling. He truly has zero shame of where he came from and what got him here. He’s definitely not the best movie star in the world because he makes good movies, but rather because wrestling taught him how to truly connect with an audience. And most importantly, to appreciate them. Through all his trials and tribulations, constant pitches and product placement and yes, his sometimes less than stellar movies, he’s still just a good guy deep down inside. He cares about people and he wants to leave this world a better place. I am forever “one of the millions….”

Channing provides the fun calm environment, Ryan brings the history and insightful questions, Fred brings the flowers and wisdom questions

These dudes pulled off The Rock arguably the most well known man in the world. Shows you how good and respected these guys are

The Rock being inclusive by acknowledging Ryan,Channing & Fred's football career shows you how humble and respectful he is towards different people.

Man, the rock is so polite, funny, memorable, grateful and full of positivity despite his trials and tribulations. This is the way to interview someone. Respectful, polite and comfortable. Thanks😄

This isn't a podcast. This is group therapy. You love to see it.

Not only did The Pivot get The Rock, but we got a non-corporate answers, authentic The Rock. And that shows the power of The Pivot's magic. Shoutout to everyone working on making this podcast/show happen. Best one out!

Channing + The Rock = Gold 😂😂😂😂

Man I blew my right knee dislocated it, my MCL, PCL, tore my FCL, 3 months ago. I’m also a father of a beautiful almost 4 yr old baby girl and 2 year old baby boy. Went from being married to now divorced or almost. Got served Eviction papers just had a mediation with the VOA and my apartment complex. I’m a combat Veteran, so luckily I get a disability check from my time in sector. But when it rained this year it poured. And I had to dig deep and change my thinking my mentality and stop allowing fear to run my life. Nothing changes if nothing changes. And things like this show have been popping up and finding there way into my Life when needed the most. Just related to his story in so many ways. And it just goes to show you that celebrities were once civilians and he had 7$ and I had 9$ in quarters and I uh have that same chip on my shoulder. Had to do a complete and utter career change from a union carpenter to now starting a job in sales on Monday. Due to not sure exactly if surgery is going to be the next step and i have two kids counting on me. Their mother when she shows up is a great mom. Just selfish and having children you gotta be selfless. So I got some really good laughs needed and released some really good tears. So this is a lot and a sap story. I just wanna say thank you to RC, which I watch you and DC I’m huge UFC guy live and breath but also Channing and Fred for putting such a amazing and powerful show together. The fire this lit in me knowing eviction is around the corner is a reality and never again will it be, but it always will be! Thanks gentleman!

Yea they dun done it with this💯✊🏾..

As an XFL employee, DJ and Dany have been awesome. Not only for football but for the opportunity of all staff working in the XFL. As a Graphic Designer there's not much opportunity out there and the XFL has allowed me to be compensated very well for my experience and work ethic. But also for DJ understanding the mental health side and allowing us to balance work & life. It's rejuvenated my career to keep getting better and help build the best XFL product possible.

This is a great get considering Dwayne never does podcasts and focuses on media interviews for movies. Hosts made him relax to the point they could ask him about his identity as a half Black v half Samoan. Loved listening to Rock 🙌🏽

When The Rock said that his motivation was that he could not be broke, it spoke to me. It's like the universe talked to me directly. It's crazy.

Proud is an understatement. To see how this team has given their heart, time and dedication over a year and have achieved a guest of this magnitude - it shows such GRIT. Keep rising in your purpose Pivot team! We're all so proud of yall!! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀❤❤❤❤

U tickle they lil chin and you move on.. Channing is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This was incredible per usual🙌 His story of having 7 dollars remind me of mine at 2.37 cents man. I’m sure many in the comments can relate when we hit rock bottom and didn’t see a way up. Whoever can relate, I just wanna let y’all know how proud of y’all I am. For whoever is going through it RIGHT NOW, don’t fucking give up. You got this. One moment, one day at a time. Leessss geauuxxxxx❤🙌🙌🙏🙏

This was amazing, Pivot podcast keeps killing it with their guests, another absolute banger of an episode
