While we enjoy every subject we cover on this podcast, sometimes we find a subject so definitively "us" that we get very giddy about getting to share it with you. The Exotic Adrian Street is one such mad, larger than life subject. Whether you're a fan of The Attitude Era like us, or don't know your Ray Mysterio from your Hornswaggle, we urge you to hit play and delve into the madness that was this Welsh wrestlers life.

In a “pinch me, I'm dreaming” episode, Dickie Wabash sits down with wrestling legend Harker Dirge to have an incredible one on one discussion. Harker has decided to break his absence from the world of wrestling to sit down and discuss a wide variety of topics. Harker talks about his time training with the late, great “Exotic” Adrian Street, the valuable lessons he learned from him, how different the business was when he started vs how it is now, the internet's impact on wrestling and how he saw it change in real time, his strange connection to the movie The Wrestler, and Harker also takes the time to (as he puts it) drop a few names including Rhyno, Christian Cage, Road Warrior Hawk, The Iron Sheik, Men on a Mission and so many more that he was lucky enough to share a card or ring with. This conversation is one you do not want to miss.Please consider supporting us on Patreon!

2023 has seen the death of a remarkable number of highly skilled professional wrestlers. In addition to the shocking passing of Bray Wyatt this week, we also lost some great legends including Lanny Poffo, Exotic Adrian Street, Superstar Billy Graham, and quite possibly one of wrestling's greatest performers ever, Terry Funk. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sixmantagpodcast/support
Dr. Justin Frank is a former clinical professor of psychiatry at the George Washington University Medical Center and the author of Trump on the Couch: Inside the Mind of the President. Dr. Frank shares his expert insights about Donald Trump's mind and how the ex-president's mental pathologies and other unwell behavior are shaping his response to being criminally indicted for his many alleged crimes including Jan. 6 and his attempted coup attempt to end American democracy. In the end, Dr. Frank warns Trump will become increasingly detached from reality as he exercises even more violent control and power over his MAGA cult followers who view the ex-president as a type of father figure and personal god. Chauncey DeVega honors the lives, legacy, and impact of filmmaker William Friedkin and professional wrestler “Exotic” Adrian Street. Chauncey also reacts in real time to Donald Trump and his cabal's criminal indictments in Georgia, which occurred Monday night while he was recording the introduction to this week's installment of the podcast. And Chauncey has fun talking with one of the chatbot AI machines about Donald Trump and CHUDs. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

Adrian Street grew up in a mining town in South Wales, but he always loved dressing up. When he was a teenager he started working down the mines, but his dream was to become a wrestler. He was ridiculed by the other miners he worked with, but in the 1950s he moved to London to pursue his dream and "The Exotic Adrian Street" was born. His wrestling persona was a haughty androgynous character who would strut about the stage pouting and blowing kisses to the crowds when they abused him for his flamboyant style.

Adrian Street grew up in a mining town in South Wales, but he always loved dressing up. When he was a teenager he started working down the mines but his dream was to become a wrestler. He was ridiculed by the other miners he worked with but in the 1950s he moved to London to pursue his dream. He was determined and strong but he needed something else to stand out. He chose glamour. He bleached his hair blond, dressed in sequins and feather boas and dramatic make-up. The fans were shocked at first and hurled abuse at him. He embraced all their taunts and created a haughty androgynous character that would strut about the stage blowing kisses at his abusers. He confused but also fascinated the wrestling world. He called himself "Exotic Adrian Street" and it didn't take long for him to become a star. There's a new film about Adrian's life which has just been released, it's called 'You May Be Pretty, But I Am Beautiful: The Adrian Street Story'.

The Exotic Adrian Street grew up in a three generation family of Welsh coal miners, but he wasn’t destined to be in the dark.

THE EXOTIC ADRIAN STREET & THE PILE DRIVERS "SHAKE WRESTLE N ROLL" 30 YEAR ANNIVERSARY LP/CD/CS OUT NOW ON BURGER RECORDS!!! www.burgerrecords.com #NICE WATCH THE VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8sdry1EMPE LP/CD/CS: https://burgerrecords.11spot.com/exotic-adrian-street-and-the-pile-drivers-shake-wrestle-n-roll.html SPOTIFY: open.spotify.com/album/282IP8PMcUamzcHbkOSJXI A Welsh coal miner who lifted weights with Sean Connery in the ‘50s, who was later refashioned into a “transvestite with a broken nose,” the Exotic Adrian Street was the first glitter kid rallying cry in the bone-crushing world of professional wrestling. “I needed the spotlight, not the darkness,” says Street, who left the cole mine’s and became a wrestler in 1957. He began by boxing for $2 dollars a fight all throughout England, but by the time Marc Bolan was Top of the Pops in 1971, Street was frolicking around international wrestling rings in his Crayola-bright wrestling trunks, silver lipstick, glittery cheeks, bleached blonde hair, and unmanly vanity — which made him wrestling’s most hated “heel,” and the punkest man in the business. “Marc Bolan told a reporter he got the idea for his costumes from watching me,” says Street, who began his transformation into glam-metal grappler by singing in legendary British rock and roll coffeehouses like The 2i’s in Soho, where Gary Glitter got his start, to designing wardrobes for Chelsea fashion hive Granny Takes a Trip, where Elton John would walk in and ask if there was any of Street’s suits he could buy; it’s also where David Bowie would look for glamorous looks. “Ziggy Stardust is a carbon copy of what I was doing,” says Street, who’s bombast came to life when he wrote the lyrics to his own entrance theme, titled “Imagine What I Could Do To You,” produced and orchestrated by musician Don Woods, who took Street’s megalomaniacal charm and turned it into hummable glam-rock that blends the sinful stiletto-sweetness of Rocky Horror with Marc Bolan’s gift for catchy melodies. The process began in 1974, with Street’s entrance song, and eventually led to 12 bizarrely pop recordings with music videos attached to each and released in 1986 as Exotic Adrian Street and the Pile Drivers' Shake Wrestle ’N’ Roll. Street, who sings such dazzling lyrics as “tough as Marciano and as sexy as Mae West,” has since written seven books, some named after his music, which include such delicious titles a “Sweet Transvestite with a Broken Nose” and “Sadist in Sequins” along with a music video for “I’m in Love With Me” that was, according to Street, produced by Michael Jackson’s videographer and later borrowed by “The King of Pop” — never to be returned! “So I began using a loaded rhinestone glove to flatten my opponents,” say Street, who claims, quite seriously, that he hated Joan Collins, but loved her clothes. He also cut off Dusty Rhodes’ hair and feuded with the legendary “Macho Man” Randy Savage, so his vain superficiality is never to be questioned. For it's 30th anniversary, Burger Records is now reissuing the cult classic Shake Wrestle ’N’ Roll on July 18th with all the original artwork depicting Street with his sensational valet and wife, the Lovely Linda. The repressing will be flattened, much as Street would do to his opponents’ noses, on CD, vinyl, and cassette."
