Race in Professional Wrestling: An LOP Radio Special Edition

Upon the fallout of the Hulk Hogan scandal over the last couple of weeks, the topic of race has been a very hot button topic in the world of professional wrestling. It isn't a new thing, though, as discussions of that sort have garnered interest and debate among fans for years. This, along with the ongoing racial conversations happening on a daily basis these days in the mainstream news and media, warrants a deeper look.

Join your presenters, host of The Late Shift every Monday night, Steve, (@YourAyatollah), and his partner in PPV Recap greatness, Son of Repoman, (@bearforcewon), as they bring you a (hopefully) balanced and nuanced look at this infathomably deep topic, covering not only the world of pro wrestling and the greater world at large but also speaking from personal experiences on how this issue has touched and dictated the courses of their own lives and fandom.

This LOP Radio Special Edition will contain language and subject matter that will be of a potentially offensive nature to some. This is not in an effort to purposely offend but instead in an effort to openly discuss and bring to light some aspects of a very unpleasant subject.
