Here were some of the things we covered:

- Dave’s experience with the filmmaker Chris Smith
- The last 30 minutes of episode six and why it wasn’t its own episode
- How the doc dealt with harassment and abuse
- Vince McMahon’s psyche
- His relationship with Shane and Stephanie
- Him being a father figure to so many male wrestlers
- His thoughts on dealing with trauma and failure, which is the same
- Portrayals of the people interviewed
