Episode 30 - Marion Fontaine - Amatuer Wrestling Entertainer

Step right up, wrestling fans and Mercer County faithful — because Marion “The Handlebarred Haberdasher” Fontaine is in the building!In this episode we twirl the mustache and pull back the curtain on wrestling. From the thrill of independent promotions to the pain of injuries, Fontaine takes us inside the ropes and beyond the spotlight — showing how wrestling is part sport, part theater, and pure curiosity.We talk k-fabe, character building, crowd work, and the difference between a signature move and a finisher. And beyond competing, Marion has stepped outside the ring to own and produce Olde Wrestling, his throwback-style promotion that keeps the spirit of wrestling alive in a whole new way.And then… it’s game time. 🎮 Our new game show Finisher or Foolery?! puts Bill and Marion to the test: can you spot the real moves from the ones we made up? Expect chaos, laughs, and maybe a Mercer County–style Gutbuster or two.👉 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
