Changing The Temperature (Guest: Dontae Smiley)

from If You Give A Dad A Podcast · host Jared aka Papa Podcast

Step into the ring with “Prime Time” Dontae Smiley — pro wrestler, entertainer, and relentless competitor. We talk about his wrestling journey, the influences that shaped him, and the art of ring IQ — from reading the crowd to knowing when to change things on the fly. Dontae shares stories about his favorite opponents and feuds (both his own and the ones he loves to watch) and how he works to “change the temperature” of a room — leaving it better than he found it, whether he’s with young talent or veterans of the sport. We also touch on his music career and his time with CrossFit for a full look at the man behind the moves.   ======================== Podcast Networks:       Zeo to Hero Podcast Network: https://zeotohero.com/         OIW Podcast Network: https://www.oiwpodcastnetwork.com/         ======================== Merch! https://iygadapshop.etsy.com/    Stickers By Stasha: https://linktr.ee/stickersbystasha        =======================     Original Geek Comics: https://www.originalgeek.org   https://linktr.ee/OrgnlGeek    Original Geek: Beyond The Panels Podcast: https://www.redcircle.com/show/ogbeyondthepanels     ========================================== If You Give A Dad A YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@IfYouGiveADadAYoutubeCha-uw7zm    If You Give A Dad A Cosplay: https://www.youtube.com/@IfyougiveadadaCosplay-nl9hc   ========================= musical credits for show:       Intro theme sampled from: https://pixabay.com/music  (find whole song there)       Outro music by: D.Cure Produced by: tunnA Beatz If you enjoy his music, be sure to check out his website as well! www.dcurehiphop.com         ===========================       Linktree to follow me: http://linktr.ee/Giveadadapodcast
