WHAT IS GIRL WRESTLING PODCAST?

Thanks so much for asking. Girl Wrestling Podcast is a weekly podcast celebrating women’s professional wrestling stories, in and out of the ring. There are plenty of wrestling podcasts out there, but a very small minority of them are focused exclusively on women’s wrestling. The few women’s wrestling podcasts are either specific to a niche (like the now defunct The Joshi Pod that focused specifically on Japanese women’s pro wrestling) or recap shows that are hosted by women, but discuss the industry as a whole. Our show is both more holistic and more specific, exploring the world of women’s wrestling as a unique vector unto itself. Our closest comp is probably Women’s Wrestling Talk, but we hope to stand apart with our sense of humor and scrappiness. (We also believe that a rising tide lifts all ships, and the more people talking about women’s wrestling fans as a segment of the industry worth serving the better.)
