The video for “No Selling (Uncle Butch Pretending It Don’t Hurt),” a professional wrestling-themed video that stars Kimmy Gatewood from Netflix’s G.L.O.W. “I gotta keep a façade / I gotta play it cool / Like when you with a girl and she go away to school,” raps Mike, using a wrestling metaphor (“selling”, or playing up, the pain inflicted by an opponent) to interrogate the concept of masculinity.
