“Rowdy” Roddy Piper Addresses The Situation With Podcast One And Steve Austin

As reported earlier on the site, Steve Austin addressed the rumors about him being responsible for getting Roddy Piper fired from Podcast One due to an episode of Piper’s show, where Piper’s co-host Will Sasso impersonated Austin. Austin said during last Tuesday’s episode of his podcast that Roddy had a meeting with the president of Podcast One. Roddy said to the president that he didn’t want to do the podcast for the network anymore due to other things he wanted to do in his life.

 


 

The president of Podcast One said that if Roddy doesn’t want to do a podcast anymore then that’s fine and Roddy walked out of the door. No hard feelings between the two and the door is always open between the two sides. Austin ended by saying that he had nothing to do with Roddy leaving the company.

In an update, Piper addressed the situation on Monday’s episode of his podcast.

“There was a lot of love in it [the podcast], but I guess not for you. That’s my mistake then. On Monday, when the episode actually aired after 6 hours, the company [Podcast One] had not only taken down the podcast but all of my podcasts and took me off the air because Steve, you were upset and you went and talked to them.” Piper added, “I get a call from the guy…the head of the organization and he tells me that all my podcasts have been taken down. He tells me that I can’t talk about Steve Austin…said that he was gonna fire me but changed his mind.”

“I think about it and say you can’t censor me and push me around. I’m a gentlemen…I’m a family man.”

Piper would go on to say that he kept doing podcasts because he needs his fan base to stay there and that he loves his fan base.

“If you got offended by it then I am sorry. I’m done with it, I didn’t lie about anything and my heart’s in the right place with my life and I got my family on my side. With that said I’m moving on and I’m not talking about it anymore.”
