Our first episode introduces you to our ragtag group of wrestling nerds. Chris, Noell, and Dave talk about how they first got into wrestling. We each pick a singular moment in wrestling history that we found to be the most memorable and moving.  

You'll hear the amazing story of how Noell, a lifelong dancer and choreographer, who never watched a minute of wrestling before July 5, 2019, got swept up into a whirlwind fascination with it. She'll tell us how that all happened and set the scene for what is a recurring theme in our podcast: the relationship between wrestling and other staged arts. She notes, "Wrestlers are dancers, and dancers are wrestlers," which seems both true and surprising at the same time. 

This theme--wrestling as a staged art--will structure future episodes of our show, which will be organized around an aspect of wrestling (entrance music, commentators, etc.). We hope you will enjoy meeting the gang and that you will write to us and let us know about some wrestling moments that are important to you and why.
