On this edition of Rasslin Memories, George Schire and Glen Braget welcome former professional wrestling great Tommy Gilbert to the program. Not only was Tommy an accomplished worker in the world of professional wrestling, he is also the father of two very successful pro wrestlers, the late great “Hot Stuff” Eddie Gilbert and “Dangerous” Doug Gilbert, as well.
On this edition of Rasslin Memories, George Schire and Glen Braget talk with David Shoemaker, author of The Squared Circle: Life, Death, and Professional Wrestling.
THE SQUARED CIRCLE: Life, Death, and Professional Wrestling by David Shoemaker is both a history of pro wrestling and a paean to its fans. Long derided as empty-minded, these fans, as Shoemaker proves, typically have a keen intellect and a good sense of irony. They harbor a certain nostalgia for the sport – and the spectacle. THE SQUARED CIRCLE is the first investigative look at the extraordinary and absurd history of America’s greatest mythological sport – through the men and women who star in it.
