💔Rough beginnings aren’t the entire story of someone’s life. Rough beginnings can lead to a mission driven life. THAT’s exactly what Mr. McFadden is! This guest is a current day Rocky and real life “student” of Stallone. NOT. ONE. SINGLE. THING. was ever given to this guy. Shawn has walked the walk (literally) through the same hallways as Mr. Stallone and nothing was gonna stop him. Millions have been inspired by Rocky, but for Shawn, it was a lifeline.

🌟Sly, if you’re reading this, our episode 70 guest has a very special message for you and it will be one of your favorites!

🥊Shawn, you are every bit as inspiring as Rocky and Sly. Your life, as it is today, proves you were a student of both! Thank you for giving us your time for this extra special episode.

🌟Several weeks ago Stallone posted handwritten "Rocky 7" script excerpts from his personal notebook. Mike reads several pages of scenes we will hopefully one day see on the big screen. (Or little screen? Hmmm... can you say 'mini-series'? One can dream!) You never know what the future holds! 🙏

☘️All the way from Ireland, Sean O'Donnell joins The Rocky Files and brings an extra dose of “Rocky Heart” to the show. During a very dark period of his life, the Rocky movies lit his path as he states, “it was the only thing that made me happy” 🥹

💚Sean, thank you for bringing such a rich Rocky spirit to this episode. Your story is a beautiful example of how Rocky becomes real when our victories are inspired by him!

🥊 "I Play Rocky" is an upcoming movie plot about how Sylvester Stallone rose up from nothing to write and star in the best known movie series of all time. Mike and Stacy discuss some the challenges the idea may face as well as all the possibilities!

💥 It's 2008 - Did you see Rambo 4? We review the difference between Rambo 4 and the prior installments of this iconic series.

🎥 When Mike asks questions, Sly sends answers - TWICE! Mike sent Sly two questions asking for clarification on some movie set details & Sly being generous with his time, sent Mike two detailed and thoughtful replies! Thank you Sly for confirming Mike's inquiries.

🌟 Welcome OLIVIA FORD! This young lady is a boxing phenom who already has a long list of accomplishments: She is a 3 time National Champion, Ranked No. 1 in her weight class, a Silver Glove Regional Champion, a Golden Gloves State Champion, and the stealer of all hearts! Thank you for joining us Olivia - you have a rare dedication and passion for hard work. Your future is bright and many, many more wins are on the way - You are welcome back anytime!

🥊 Olivia's appearance is extra special for us because her amazing coach SHAWN MCFADDEN returns to The Rocky Files from EP 70! Rough beginnings can lead to a mission driven life. THAT’s exactly what Mr. McFadden is! Shawn is a current day Rocky and real life “student” of Stallone. NOT. ONE. SINGLE. THING. was ever given to this guy. Shawn has walked the walk (literally) through the same hallways as Mr. Stallone and nothing was gonna stop him. Millions have been inspired by Rocky, but for Shawn, it was a lifeline. Shawn gathered all of this life experience and poured it into being the best coach the boxing industry has seen in a long time! Olivia and Shawn have become our real life Rocky / Mickey pairing.
