The Global Gael - Ruadhán's Wrestling With An Irish Sporting Tradition

from Our Man In Stockholm · host Philip O Connor

While travelling the world to train and learn about various different kinds of wrestling, Irishman Ruadhán McFadden discovered that Ireland had it's very own style, and he is determined to bring it back. In fact, Irish Collar & Elbow wrestling was once one of the most popular forms of the sport, and his book on the subject has re-awoken a grappling culture that had almost disappeared, and he joined me from his travels in Tokyo to tell me all about it.
