320 - From the Ring to Real Life: The Intersection of Wrestling and Race in America with Ashley Sanders
Recorded on 3/2/2023 on the Quantum Global Broadcasting Network, Rusty and Ashley come together for the first time, having purposely avoided learning anything about each other prior to recording.
The conversation kicks off with their shared love of professional wrestling, as they discuss favorite wrestlers like New Jack, Spike Dudley, D-Von Dudley, Hardcore Holly, and Crash Holly. But as the conversation unfolds, they delve deeper into their personal experiences with race relations, including the impact of the George Floyd incident and their own experiences with police and being profiled.
Rusty and Ashley emphasize the importance of having difficult conversations and breaking out of echo chambers, acknowledging that it is through these conversations that true change and progress can be made. They also reflect on the significance of apologizing and seeking forgiveness, recognizing privilege and systemic biases, and the importance of continuous personal growth.
