This special Flash-Cast episode is dedicated to the larger-than-life legacy of Hulk Hogan.
We’re joined by longtime wrestling mega-fan Derek to pay tribute to The Immortal One and reflect on what made Hulkamania run wild through the 1980s and beyond. Was Hulk Hogan the single most important figure in the history of pro wrestling? Did his legendary body slam of Andre the Giant in 1987 at WrestleMania III truly change the sport forever?
Brian still isn’t over Hogan leaving Minnesota behind in 1983 to go national—and global—with Vince McMahon’s WWF.
Then Mean Mark joins the show to share what it was like growing up a full-blown Hulkamaniac, orange shirt and all.
We also take a moment to honor two other pop culture icons who have recently passed away, making this an emotional, nostalgic, and occasionally shirt-ripping episode.
So say your prayers, take your vitamins, and join us as we remember Hulk Hogan—brother.
