Welcome, Grit & Glitter listeners, to a brand new Patreon-exclusive show where Em Fear and Val Quartz discuss the Netflix series GLOW episode by episode.
In our intro ep, we discuss the pilot episode of the series and its focus trio of Ruth, Debbie, and Sam. How does a theatre nerd become a pro wrestler? How much pure rage is fueling Debbie? How is Sam charismatic while being an undeniable POS? And does this episode have the worst sex scene ever captured on screen?
Plus: we take a look back at the source material, the original Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling, discuss women's wrestling in 2017 - the year the Netflix GLOW premiered, and highlight segments of the 2012 documentary GLOW: The Story of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, which we will be highlighting throughout this series.
