October 21 2008 Figure Four Daily

We’ve got a great show today as we’re joined by John Capouya, author of the Gorgeous George book which you can order by clicking here. We’ll talk the history of wrestling and George’s place in it, what it was like writing the book and dealing with carny pro wrestlers, George’s rise and fall and depressing end, the possibilities of the book becoming a movie, who he contacted to write it, some surprises, and so much more. Fans of history will love this, plus it’s a fascinating look at a wrestler that greatly affected mainstream American all the way through today. John’s website is up at gorgeousgeorgebook.com!
