56: Hulk Hogan's First Memoir Part 1
Listen now
Description
We are back to break down Hollywood Hulk Hogan's first autobiography "Hollywood Hulk Hogan" (with Michael Jan Friedman.) This is Hogan's "worked" memoir as he would release another later on that told the "real story." That one was mostly b******t too! Join us as Hogan tells us about his childhood, engages in ridiculous fat shaming and breaks into the business! If you have the book we'll be reading up to page 135 for next weekend. Feel free to submit fake quotes I can fool Hulkamatt with next time. Full credit to the 372 Pages podcast for that idea. Also I might be wrong about doubting the Hogan/Matsuda broken leg story. I'd read it didn't happen but Ron Fuller seemed to think it had? I'm not sure! Sources: Hollywood Hulk Hogan and Michael Jan Friedman, "Hollywood Hulk Hogan" WWE Books, 2002.
