Ep. 155: Pro Wrestling: EVE w/ Emily and Dann Read

CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains frank discussion of sexual assault from 4:57 to 5:57. This week, Hal Danielle and Lindsey are joined by Emily and Dann Read from Pro Wrestling: EVE. It’s one of the most prominent all-women wrestling organizations in the world. Recently, EVE announced that they would be embarking on a first-of-its-kind venture in wrestling: partnering with a union to make sure its performers gain representation. They’ll discuss how long the deal has been in the works and why there’s still trepidation in the wrestling world to embrace unionization. Plus, they’ll discuss which performers within EVE they’re excited to see, why wrestling seems to be so behind in terms of equality from the rest of the world and the next changes that they’d like to see the industry embrace in the near future. Find out more about Pro Wrestling: EVE on their website, including their upcoming shows and the charities that the company promotes. Hosted by Hal Lublin and Danielle Radford Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
