Episode 128: Mike Edison Talks “Wrestling Journalism”

Hello, wrestling fans! It’s time for Episode #128 of Shut Up and Wrestle, with Brian R. Solomon!

This week, one of Brian’s most popular guests–author, editor and musician Mike Edison–returns to the show to discuss the strange phenomenon known as “wrestling journalism”.

From the days of the kayfabe magazines right up to the head-scratching “press scrums” of today, Brian and Mike get into the weeds on the very nature of both pro wrestling *and* journalism, plus a whole lot more.

Buckle up, grab your beverage of choice, and listen carefully, or you may miss something!
