  • Not just for grapplers/wrestlers

    This podcast is much more than a history of wrestling; it’s for anyone interested in history at all. If you listen to any history podcasts like Hardcore History or History on Fire, you’ll find this podcast very interesting. The narrative does an excellent job of giving a historical and cultural context in which these folk styles of wrestling existed as well as portraying wrestling as playing an essential role in many human cultures.

  • Great idea, connect with roots AND other cultures

    As someone who is also beginning his journey into getting in touch with his heritage culture’s wrestling traditions but also likes learning about other cultures, this is pretty much the only podcast I listen to—the first one too actually. more
