I watched the whole shoot this morning and it is pretty good. I mean, I really don't like the whole green screen gimmick behind them, as it is kinda distracting. It obviously doesn't effect the shoot interview itself, but you know what I mean. Also I don't condone their passing of a joint back and forth in the beginning, but I knew that was the idea from the promos. I am not looking to pass judgment on their choice of lifestyles, I just want to hear about the industry.
The shoot itself is quality, as they touch on nearly everything you could think of...and several things you wouldn't. It does dispel the rumors that they hate each other in "real life". Nothing seems to be off limits and they do talk openly about several wrestlers that did surprise me. I don't want to give anything away, as it would be unfair to ruin your experience of watching it, but they don't shy away from some hot button topics. I watch lots of shoots and I would recommend this one to anyone who a fan of either of these guys.

Ordered mine today. Special 420 release! (They announced it on Twitter last night) I may NOT support some of the activities that they part-take in (the 3 X's on my calf back my play)...but I want to hear what they have to say about the industry. Plus I love a good shoot interview. You straight edge? |

It does dispel the rumors that they hate each other in "real life" I didn't know there were rumors that they didn't get along, but without question they get along great in real life. I've met them a couple of times together (including once with Cman and Kirby after Kurt Russellmania at Wrestle Reunion 4) to know they're definitely good friends. So far, I've watched all of the first disc and most of the 2nd disc. Even though I personally don't watch alot of shoots, I've really enjoyed this one. And although the running time is almost 4 hours long, the time really seems to go by pretty fast when you are watching it. |

4 hours? That's a picnic compared to the 8 hour Ric Flair shoot highspots did.
I'll probably get this one once I get some free time on my hands.

They do go off topic every now and then. But at least they didn't fall asleep (like Slick) or not talk into the mic (Butch Reed). |

I also love how his black eye changes through-out. (As it was shot over a few different sittings) The chewing and spitting was kinda gross, but the content was second to none. |

I have really only watched a few shoots. I usually enjoy them the first time through but I won't ever go back and watch a 2nd time. I just have a tough time buying something I will only watch once.
The favorite one I have watched was with Burrhead Jones. I never really knew much about him prior to the shoot but enjoyed learning about his career through the shoot.
