Grit & Glitter

Harley and Em are joined by returning fav Rich Fann and debuting guest Jewell Brown to break down the gender divide in professional wrestling!

They play three games where they add wrestlers of different sexes to established teams (Sasha Banks in The Shield??), make some new pairings for a new season of Mixed Match Challenge (Orange Cassidy & Bayley!), and build teams solely off of a random name (Beefy Biz Inc.).  Goodbye gendered wrestling divisions!

It's the start of an all-new, all-different Grit & Glitter!

With Harley and Em saying goodbye to G&G for personal reasons, new hosts Mayydayy and Lindsay kick off our next era, taking the show back to its roots in focusing solely on women's wrestling and the family-friendly action of WOW Superheroes.

This week they look at how season 10 has been going so far, potential challengers for the trios titles, and how the Beastification of WOW has been holding other women back.

Originally aired November 2022.  On the fourth edition of Living Legends, Harley delves into the legacy of Gail Kim.

From debuting as a masked wrestler in Toronto in 2000 to winning the WWE women's title in her debut, becoming the first Knockouts Champion, walking out on WWE, and being the first woman inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame.

If you don't know why Gail Kim is a legend, here's your explanation.

Em and Don talk to two-thirds of The Matriarchy, "No Mercy" Zeke Mercer and Amanda Maslow!

They talk competing for 880 Wrestling, how The Matriarchy formed, representation in wrestling, the influence of Maria Kanellis-Bennett, and chasing the 880 tag titles.

Harley and Em are joined by Hoodslam's own Anton Voorhees and DARK Sheik for a wrestling media draft!

They compete to select some of their favorite wrestling books, movies, songs, t-shirts, and merchandise.  Which wrestler will land two books on the chart?  What body part makes the list?  Did Stone Cold and Shawn Michaels walk so Santino Marella and Nikki Bella could run?  Whose selfie made the list?

Listen, find out, and cast your vote for the winner over on our Instagram!

Harley flew from Toronto to Pittsburgh to join Glitterati members Em, Laz, and Don in attending Enjoy Wrestling's Dearly Beloved!

Harley and Em talk his weekend in Pittsburgh and spoiler-free thoughts on DARK Sheik presiding over the wedding of Billy Dixon and Sonny Kiss, MV Young vs. Jack Pollock in career vs. career, and more.

Plus: Harley sits down with Jordan Blade and Eel O'Neal to discuss intergender wrestling, what makes them so unique, and why now was the right time for the Best Business Bureau to reform.

Harley's back with another round of 20 Questions and this time he's joined by “The Nϋ Thing” Elle Valentine!

She discusses life in Boston, starting out with BLOWW, The Substance, career highs and lows, what her family thinks of her being a wrestler, and meeting Gangrel.

It's the season 14 premiere and we're (finally) talking about customs matches!

Em finally chases down a dream as she gets Ray Lyn and Kayla Carroll to sit down and talk about the stigma and misconceptions around customs.  They discuss working for New England Female Wrestling, the opportunities customs afford, networking, and the sisterhood of wrestling.  And, yes, Ray's got some stories about the bad apples in the bunch as well.

Women's Wrestling Entertainment is a G&G Patreon podcast where Harley Vasquez, Em Fear, and Meg James chronicle the history of women in WWE, WCW, and ECW in chronological order.

Ahead of our upcoming 24th episode, featuring the introduction of the WCW Women's Championship, we throw back this week to our 9th episode, chronicling the early days of WCW and women like Misty Blue, Bambi, Madusa, and Missy Hyatt!
