Get ready for a hilarious, informative, and unforgettable milestone as the 3-time award-winning podcast Devon & The Duke hits Episode 75! Hosted by WWE Hall of Famer Devon Dudley and award-winning media specialist Duke Loves Rasslin, this week's show delivers the perfect blend of legacy respect, unfiltered locker room insight, and laugh-out-loud banter.

From paying tribute to a New England wrestling legend to breaking down the wildest conspiracy theories on TV, the fellas leave no stone unturned. Plus, get the inside scoop on independent event promotion, social media traps, and an evaluation of a hardcore wrestling icon's booking mind.

• Remembering the Duke of Dorchester: The Duke kicks off the show with a special Rest in Peace message for the legendary Pete Doherty. Hear details about an upcoming full memorial episode dropping later this week on the Duke Loves Rasslin Podcast Network, which will re-air Pete's highly celebrated, classic interview from the early years of the brand.

• The Bloodline Conspiracy: The Duke officially calls out Devon, accusing him of "setting up" Oba Femi to get jumped by The Bloodline during the King of the Ring final against Jey Uso. Duke warns Oba that the fix is in, especially if Ref Jess is assigned to the match. Devon is beside himself over the ridiculous accusation, speculating that Duke must have taken a bump from Wemby or Cody Rhodes to dream up such a tall tale.

• DDA Inception Big Success: Devon provides an exclusive update on this past Saturday's blockbuster event featuring the students of the Devon Dudley Academy. Wrestling in front of a packed, at-capacity crowd, these rising stars proved the future is bright.

• Master Class in Promoting: Reflecting on DDA's success, Devon reminisces about a legendary card he ran during his TNA days to support single mothers battling cancer. Hear the incredible story of Hulk Hogan appearing at the event and being blown away by Devon's promotional skills and ability to draw a massive crowd.

• Is Tommy Dreamer a Great Booker?: Duke asks the ultimate question, and Devon does not hold back. Drawing on a relationship that spans his entire career, Devon enthusiastically breaks down why Tommy Dreamer is an elite booker, sharing insights on what they both learned under the tutelage of Paul Heyman and Vince McMahon.

• The Future of FTR: The fellas dive into the rumors of FTR's potential retirement. While both desperately want to see them stay in the ring, Duke shares some tough love regarding Dax and Cash's social media habits, explaining why a generational disconnect is causing them to diminish their brand by arguing with fans online.

• Exposing Dirtsheet Culture: Both Devon and The Duke pull back the curtain to call out internet dirtsheets for fostering a toxic culture that ruins surprises and stops fans from just enjoying the story as it develops.

• Duke's Ultimate Punishment: The episode wraps up in hysterical fashion with Devon promising to recruit Cody Rhodes, Wemby, and Oba Femi to completely wear Duke out in the squared circle. Devon plans to watch the entire beatdown from a front-row seat with a giant bucket of extra-butter popcorn.

The Knicks are champions, delusions are running wild, and the hot takes are absolutely scorching on a brand-new episode of the 3-time award-winning Devon & The Duke Podcast! Join WWE Hall of Famer Devon Dudley and award-winning media specialist Duke Loves Rasslin for another hilarious and informative ride.

The Knicks Are On Top & Duke’s Delusions Are Wild

• The fellas are in absolute high spirits this week because Devon’s beloved New York Knicks have finally won the NBA World Championship for the first time since the 1970s! Devon drops a massive congratulations shout-out to the orange and blue, pointing out that despite Victor Wembanyama's hard work, Wemby just couldn't get it done against a determined New York squad.

• Of course, the championship talk shifts directly into chaos when Duke decides to call out the Spurs' big man yet again. Duke is demanding Wemby meet him right here in Boston for a showdown. Mind you, Duke is literally two feet shorter than the NBA superstar, but he insists he is going to "dunk on Wemby." Devon does what any good friend would do—he laughs hysterically and completely clowns Duke for his ridiculous delusions.

UFC Freedom 250 Breakdown & Standing Up For Michelle Obama

• Next, the conversation shifts to the octagon as Duke delivers his official assessment of UFC Freedom 250. Duke puts it over as the absolute best card the promotion could put together for an all-men's MMA event with top-tier quality matches. However, he pulls no punches about his disappointment regarding the total lack of women's matches on the card.

• Things take a serious turn when Duke informs Devon about a classless lowlife in the UFC crowd who referred to former First Lady Michelle Obama as a man. Devon is completely mortified by the news, pointing out just how utterly classless the display was. Both hosts take a moment to set the record straight and express their immense respect for the former First Lady.

Oba Femi Wants Smoke & Cody Rhodes Is A "Dog"

• The wrestling world heats up as Duke points out that NXT powerhouse Oba Femi is calling out Brock Lesnar again—but more importantly, Oba is demanding Devon stop running and step up so Oba can finally whoop his ass! Devon makes his stance crystal clear: he wants absolutely NO PART in battling that giant. In fact, Devon says he'd gladly buy Oba lunch and even share his gummies with him just to keep the peace!

• Finally, Duke goes on an absolute tear against the Undisputed WWE Champion, proclaiming once again that Cody Rhodes is nothing but an "egg-sucking dog" and a nightmare who would turn on his own daddy to side with the Four Horsemen. Devon makes it clear he is firmly Team Cody, but he admits he’ll stick around just to watch Duke eventually get what's coming to him.

Another legendary, hilarious conversation and informative perspective from creators like you trust!

The 3-time award-winning Duke Loves Rasslin Podcast delivers a powerful, multi-layered, and deeply mature conversation you cannot afford to miss. In Week 510, Duke welcomes back an absolute day-one original: year 1 guest, former independent professional wrestler, and current Financial Analyst and Advisor, Telless Cade.

A decade after his first appearance, Telless returns as a completely evolved man. Staying connected with Duke over the last 10 years through the exclusive Duke Loves Rasslin private Facebook group, this episode is a masterclass in brotherhood, mutual support, and personal evolution. From navigating the gritty independent wrestling scene to building a beautiful family, honoring his lovely wife, and securing a corporate finance career, Telless shares a story of profound growth.

This isn't just a wrestling podcast; this is a masterclass in life, society, and the future of the industry.

• 
  

  A Decade of Evolution: Duke and Telless reflect on their very first interview 10 years ago, charting the incredible growth of both the podcast and Telless’ life as a husband, father, and financial professional.

• 
  

  When Wrestling Mirrors Society’s Ugly Side: Telless drops jaw-dropping, insane stories of how the wrestling business often mirrors the worst parts of the real world—including shocking backstage reflections on promotions booking Klansmen and ICE elements as "babyfaces."

• 
  

  Diverse Perspectives: Telless commends Duke's unique formula of bringing voices from outside the traditional wrestling bubble to offer listeners fresh, real-world perspectives on life.

• 
  

  The Reality of Raising an Autistic Child: In a deeply personal segment, Telless opens up about the unique rewards and immense challenges of raising a child with autism, shedding light on the institutional hurdles families face when school systems fail to provide adequate special education support.

• 
  

  The Looming Threat of Pro Wrestling Unions: As artificial intelligence (AI) threatens traditional workforce sectors daily, the conversation shifts to the inevitability of wrestlers unionizing to protect their livelihoods, health, and benefits.

• Why Promotions Must Act Now: Telless applies his financial expertise to the wrestling business, explaining why it is far more cost-effective for wrestling promotions to voluntarily provide adequate care and benefits to talent now, rather than being legally forced to surrender much more when standard unionization inevitably arrives.
