Season 2, Episode 13 — “Posts, Power Trips, and Paying the Price”
In this episode, Levi digs into the consequences of letting your personal feelings and beliefs spill onto your professional social media page—and how one post can swing a sledgehammer straight into your own livelihood.
Levi breaks down a real situation in the business: a promoter who publicly calls out a pedophile—a just cause—but then takes a hard left turn and goes way overboard, issuing an ultimatum to his students that they cannot work for anyone he doesn’t deem “acceptable.”
Levi talks about how this power trip creates consequences for everyone involved:
The students who lose bookings, opportunities, and relationships they’ve worked hard for.
The trainer who becomes trapped between loyalty and logic.
The promoter whose good intention gets buried under ego, control, and the fallout of a public meltdown.
Then Levi lays out the real lesson for future wrestlers:
how to protect your career, control your image, and avoid getting caught up in someone else’s crusade, drama, or digital landmine. It’s part warning, part wake-up call, and all Levi Blue truth.
Another episode for the Sorry Pal Nation—
30 minutes of your life you’re never getting back. Sorry Pal… not so sorry.
Season 2, Episode 12 — “Home isWhat You Make It”
In this episode, Levi stumbles across a friend’s viral post calling the wrestling business “ugly,” and The Prettyboy Redneck himself steps up to set the record straight. Levi breaks down how the business isn’t good or bad by default — it becomes whatever you pour into it. Heart, work ethic, respect for the craft… or the opposite. The Devil’s Reflection gives The Sorry Pal Nation a backstage reality check on how perspective shapes the business we all love.
Then in the second half, Levi switches gears — from the ring to the red suit. He shares a recent Santa visit that hit him right in the heart, reminding him what true connection looks like. And in classic Levi fashion, he draws a straight line between playing Santa and being a pro wrestler: if you want the fans — or the kids — to believe, you’d better commit 100%, live the role, and make magic real.
Another raw, honest, and unexpectedly emotional ride. Sorry Pal… but you’re gonna feel this one.

“What Really Matters”
This week Levi Blue comes in hot—and he’s got opinions that The Sorry Pal Nation is gonna feel in their bones. Levi kicks things off with a no-nonsense breakdown of Dave Meltzer, the state of wrestling media, and why ranking lists and “5-star match culture” are poisoning the way fans watch the business. From inflated star ratings to fans treating their favorites like stock portfolios, Levi takes the gloves off and calls out the nonsense with that classic Prettyboy Redneck honesty.
But then… the episode shifts.
Levi brings the room down to a quiet, emotional place as he shares a deeply meaningful Santa Claus booking he just received—one involving children affected by a devastating church shooting. In a rare moment of vulnerability, Levi opens up about the responsibility, the heartbreak, and the honor of being asked to bring a little light into a truly dark situation.
He reflects on perspective, purpose, and what actually matters when the noise fades away—beyond wrestling, beyond ratings, beyond the grind.
Raw. Real. Human.
This isn’t just an episode of Sorry Pal… this is Levi reminding the Nation of the heart beneath the beard and the man beneath the moniker.
This week, Levi Blue rolls back into the studio hotter than a Michigan summer bonfire, because apparently a backyard wrestling “company” has decided to invade the Great Lakes State.
Levi breaks down what happens when untrained wannabes start acting like they’re running WrestleMania in somebody’s cousin’s yard — the risks, the fallout, the legal nightmares, and the absolute circus it can unleash on the real Michigan wrestling scene.
Then Levi shifts gears and digs deep into AEW’s latest Blood and Guts spectacle. He breaks down what worked, what didn’t, who showed out, who got exposed, and why the match remains one of the most polarizing things in modern wrestling. Storytelling, psychology, brutality — Levi calls it straight, no sugarcoating.
It’s wild, it’s real, and it’s another 30 minutes of your life you’re never getting back.
Sorry Pal… Not So Sorry.

In this unfiltered and brutally honest edition, The Prettyboy Redneck opens up about getting canceled three years ago and the hard lessons that followed. Levi digs into how a single decision might not hit you today, might not even seem to affect you—or anyone around you—but one day, it all catches up.
It’s not the episode Levi planned… but maybe it’s the one he needed to record.

Levi talks about how the same people who shared the locker room, the road, and the ring often disappear when the boots come off. Some brothers and sisters in the business will always feel like family—one handshake and it’s like no time has passed at all. Others? They couldn’t care less if you vanished tomorrow.
It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s one of the most personal episodes yet.
Because when the lights go out and the fans go home… you find out who’s really in your corner. Sorry Pal—Not so sorry.
Levi kicks the door wide open and stomps right through the soft spots in this one. He’s not talking about “empowerment” or “trailblazing”—he’s talking about the reality.
The guys who pretended to help women in wrestling but really just wanted to help them into bed. The women who stepped into the ring when they had no damn business being there.
And the cold truth: there’s no crying in pro wrestling—because if you can’t take the heat, the criticism, and the harsh reality of the business, you’ll never make it.
This isn’t daycare. It’s pro wrestling, and Levi’s here to remind you why.
