Shootin' the Wheeze

About Shootin' the Wheeze

Talking Grass is a podcast about all the things that give us reason to get out of our screens. Hosted by Alexis (Wheezy), the show dives into wrestling fandom, internet culture, creator life, and the chaos of being chronically online. Some episodes are honest conversations and hot takes, while others leave the studio entirely — heading into the real world to actually “touch grass” with guests or by trying something new. Still rooted in her wrestling background, Wheezy invites you along to explore something different. Let’s touch grass.

   New Beginnings | Pilot

   Since 2021, I’ve been creating content and talking about pro-wrestling online. Wrestling has brought so many incredible opportunities, conversations, and people into my life, and I genuinely love being part of this community.But before any of this, I was a hairstylist for over a decade. One of my favorite parts of that job was the conversation. Every day I met different people with different lives, passions, hobbies, fears, goals, and stories. I miss that variety sometimes. I miss talking just to talk.Over the years, I realized how easy it is for all of us to become consumed by one thing. Whether it’s wrestling, content creation, work, social media, or even the version of ourselves we present online, we can start to forget there’s still an entire person underneath all of it.That’s where this podcast comes in.This project is about “touching grass.” It’s about stepping outside of the scroll, outside of the algorithms, and outside of the boxes we put ourselves in. I want to have conversations that spotlight the interests, experiences, talents, and perspectives people have beyond the thing they’re most known for.Yes, I’d love to sit down with pro-wrestlers and people within the wrestling space, but this isn’t just a wrestling podcast. It’s a people podcast. It’s about curiosity, trying new things, learning from each other, and exploring the parts of ourselves that don’t always get camera time.If you’ve ever felt like your identity got wrapped up in one thing, or like there’s more inside your head and heart than what people see online, this is for you.I just want to talk, laugh, learn, experience life a little more, and maybe remind people there’s still a world outside of the screen.
