Left My Wallet: Sean Mooney on his WWF past, Starrcast, sports stories

‘Left My Wallet’ is back with former WWF announcer and current host of the popular Prime Time podcast, Sean Mooney!

Sean shares some stories about how he got into the WWF in 1988 and the events that led to his hiring, his love of sports growing up in Arizona, and what teams he rooted for.

Prior to his time in WWF, Sean was an on-air personality and producer for Major League Baseball. During that time, he got to experience some incredible opportunities within the sports world like co-hosting a show with Joe Namath and the advice “Broadway Joe” gave him when it came to the ladies. He also tells about catching passes from the Hall of Famer while at Jets camp, and the comparisons he makes with Joe to Ric Flair.

He then tells of a hilarious story that got him some massive heat with former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda and the time he spent getting to know Tim McCarver, Mickey Mantle, and Leo Durocher. Sean also describes his time at WBZ in Boston, being with iconic New England sports personality Bob Lobel, and the Boston sports scene.

Finally, Sean tells how he stays in shape and looks very similar to the way he did upon his WWF debut 30 years ago, his new podcast for men over 40, hosting at Starrcast, and how he got back into the wrestling game.
