Jenn Decker Discusses Starrcast, AEW, New Daily Radio Show, and Her Journey

facebooktwitter

Jenn Decker joins the podcast this week! She will be hosting the AEW press conference at Starrcast — which is at the Hyatt Regency in Schaumberg, Il this week and can be streamed live or on demand on Fite TV — on Thursday and will be on the AEW All Out broadcast on Saturday night. You can order All Out on BR Live and standard PPV. She also has a new daily radio show with her husband (retired baseball player Cody Decker) on Entercom’s Radio.com on weekdays from 1-4 PM ET. We discussed:

  • How she got involved with AEW, dating back to when the core wrestlers in the group put on the independent All In last year outside of Chicago
  • All of the buzz surrounding the promotion
  • The new daily radio show, Swing and Misses, that launched last week. How did it come together? What are their goals for it? Who are the dream guests?
  • Working with the former Loveline producer
  • The crazy circumstances that led to her getting closure to the Deadspin / Brett Favre nightmare in the form of an in-person apology from A.J. Daulerio

Hope you enjoy!
