Other people do the wrestling stuff and it's good, but it's the stuff on strength and embodiment and so on I've done that is still somewhat novel given how Sam Fussell wrote one book and then called it and there's just not much else

what a book that was. "And in the final arena there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness."

And alone in its field for 20 years, a true oddity that was supposedly becoming a showtime show but thank goodness it didn't because I'd read too many bad takes on it

bad treatments for a show? or bad reviews of the book?

Bad hot takes written about the show had it come out

I see. The tone has to be just right. Is it comedy?

It would just have been a paint by numbers GLOW-type series

Everything that’s adapted is some stretched out Orange is the New Black type thing...middlebrow pablum
