Who am I?

I am a curious and creative person who like to use these traits to take my brain in many directions. It doesn't matter if it's to reminisce about the good old days or think of new ways to create. I chose the topic of Pro Wrestling history because it's been a huge part of my life for more than 35 years now. I love the sport itself but also I like to try and find ways to rewrite what happened in the past. It's very easy to get caught up in ways to change the narrative.

4. POST Wrestling

Why this podcast?

When I need to hear news on the current state of professional wrestling, John Pollack is one of the first sources I go to. He a long time trusted voice in a sport that doesn't have a wealth of universally respected sources. On his podcast he pairs with a great team to break news, share in depth reviews, and provide the one on one interviews with the sport's greatest athletes. As for the history of wrestling, you can hear old shows reviewed by fresh minds who know what went right and wrong.
