71: How Secret is WWE's History of Abuse?
A common refrain is that we can't throw the baby out with the bathwater when it comes to WWE and their recent sex trafficking allegations. How true is it that no one would know what Vince was up to? We go back through WWE's history of abuse scandals and look at how allegations in the Ring Boy Scandal, Ashley Massaro's claims and the most public allegation at Vince McMahon all involve multiple witnesses, or open knowledge by WWE talent and executives.

WWF Ring Boy Scandal with David Bixenspan Part 2
It's part 2 of our 3 hour interview with David Bixenspan on the WWF Ring Boy Scandal. We go in depth on the accusations against Terry Garvin, how the WWF treated the Coles after the scandal died down, the lawsuits, depositions, and then finish things off with a completely unrelated Gabe Sapolsky story!
The audio started breaking up during the Gabe story so this episode ends a little abruptly after the Gabe story.

Incredible podcast for wrestling fans
The Monumental Podcast has a fantastic format to tell you the stories of some of the weirdest times in pro wrestling history. MRT mongo_ebooks does detailed research on the story of the episode, then delivers the tale in a compelling manner that is entertaining and informative. HulkaMatt does not remember anything and is consistently zinged for not knowing anything about pop culture. The History of TNA is comprehensive and the Warrior shows are also tremendous.
If you like wrestling at all, this is the best wrestling podcast.
My grandkids love it!
This is the fourth best podcast to come out of the Faces of Death fanfic community.
