Cosmic Bowling at Northside Lanes with Zakar Shah, or "An Empty Bar-Mitzvah Meets a Disco"
Manage episode 363573640 series 3340808
It's not often you get to experience something with someone for the first time, and that's what makes this episode special. "The Exile" ZAKAR SHAH was born in Iran where bowling was... not as essential to the childhood experience as it is in the states. He rolled one frame in his early teens before being bowling shamed by his brother, and has never returned to an alley since. We're redressing that childhood wrong right here, right now as we head to Northside Lanes in Winchester, VA for his first full game & our first round of Cosmic Bowling in show history.
We discuss the difference between having fun in Iran vs. America and what that reveals about both countries. He shares the story of his multi-year journey of getting from Iran to US, what it's like coming somewhere you don't think you're wanted, and how Professional Wrestling is his personal American Dream.
Plus JACOB CUNNINGHAM answers the Existential Question of the Week: Do you believe in Good & Evil?
Is Northside Lanes something you have to do before you die? Listen and find out!
