Hello, wrestling fans! It’s time for Episode #156 of Shut Up and Wrestle, with Brian R. Solomon!

Something a little different this week, as by popular demand, Brian pays tribute to his grandfather, Anthony Salica.

Often referred to on the show, Brian wanted to pay tribute to his late grandfather on the occasion of his recent 100th birthday.

This week he shares his own reminiscences, plus a conversation with former boxer and boxing historian Ray McCormack–a former trainee of Mr. Salica’s–as well as some words from the man himself, taken from a 1993 interview Brian did with his grandfather back when he was in college.

It’s an extra-long episode for an extra-special man, covering boxing, a little bit of wrestling, and the life of a man who was loved by all.

Shut Up and Wrestle is a production of the Arcadian Vanguard Podcast Network.
