This week The Puncholes feature…
You’re Conor McGregor. Khabib Nurmagomedov wants to bury the hatchet, live and in public, if you will. “Everything is possible. Just as McGregor and I feuded, so we could reconcile.” Is it good PR for your career to do so? – 0:50 video, 1:03 audio
You’re Sage Northcutt. Mr. Dana White said he’d let you go. “Sage is young and Sage needs some work. So let him get some work in one of these other organizations and we’ll see where this kid ends up in a couple of years and maybe we’ll pick him back up again.” Where are you gonna go Sage? – 8:04 video, 8:14 audio

“We’ll be back next week with another installment of If I Did It; and we don’t know what we’ll be talking about yet because the PR mistakes have yet to be made.”
Welcome to another episode of If The Shoes Fit; a show where we solve salacious situations by stepping into the shoes of the shaken…the chagrined…the kerfuffed! This week: Reacting to Pizzagate 2.0 and Dwight Howard drama. Join along while Alexei, John and Victor to discuss PR issues in the non-MMA world!
Now let’s get to stepping!
Step into the shoes of President Donald Trump. The Miami Herald called out your Secretary of Labor and Attorney General, Alex Acosta, and put him on blast, LIVE, AND IN PUBLIC, IF YOU WILL, for undermining police and giving a cushy plea deal to child rapist, billionaire, hedge fund manager, Jeffrey Epstein. How do you handle the PR from his continued employment (that is, Alex Acosta’s) in wake of your pizzagate conspiracy theorist base, Donald? – 0:54 video, 24:37 audio
Step into the shoes of Dwight Howard. You’ve been accused of using surrogates to threaten your down low boyfriend, live and in public, if you will. How do you navigate the weaponizing of your alleged sexual preference and address his claims? – 12:04 video, 35:58 audio
REGULAR FEATURE: LEGION OF DOOM – 20:00 video, 43:50 audio
SPECIAL FEATURE VIC’S HOMAGE TO #MISTYAF – 22:21 video, 46:16 audio
