About this episode

The episode discusses the film 'Foxcatcher', focusing on its realistic portrayal of wrestling and the true story behind it.

It's a new Month and that means a NEW Theme and THIS month the boys of HMP are talking WRESTLING as Wrestlemania approaches and we're going from most realistic representation of Wrestling to the most outlandish- but we're starting off with the most grounded of stories as it's based on real life. Channing Tatum, Mark Ruffalo and Steve Carell star in 2014's FOXCATCHER- U.S. Olympic wrestling champions and brothers Mark Schultz and Dave Schultz join "Team Foxcatcher", led by eccentric multi-millionaire John du Pont, as they train for the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea, but John's self-destructive behavior threatens to consume them all. Executive Producers: Tim (Applescruff), Derrick Copling (Sir Slick Derrick The Knight Bard), Matthew Schnapp, Noah Overton (Noah of The Dark Woods), Peter "Not SoBad Lookin'" Pernice Listen to the HMP Live Stream, Sunday Nights and Live Streams with Adam throughout the week.
