The Show: The Outdated Wrestling Hour With Bob Smith (former managing editor of Pro Wrestling Illustrated) returns with another literary edition, as the famed author and journalist Ian Douglass returns with exciting news about his new, richly researched book about the history of Black American wrestling - his second book this year!

The Hosts: Smith and co-host Joe Puccio (proprietor of the Generation X-Wire website) bring an appreciation for the history of pro wrestling with every passing episode. Rather than read off rote match results or fading figures, Smith and Puccio offer their love of old school pro wrestling with a wealth of gratitude and appreciation - and this edition features them riffing on great mat books. Get out your readers and enjoy The Outdated Wrestling Hour podcast!
