Philadelphia Nights: The Ballad of New Jack (feat. Emilio Sparks)

On the second episode of the second season of VICE’s acclaimed series, Dark Side of The Ring, the world was introduced to the most violent man in the history of professional wrestling: New Jack. On this episode of Say Less, Kaz links up with his former podcast tag team partner and show’s producer, Emilio Sparks, to talk about the incredible episode on the man’s life. Sparks and Kaz wax poetic about what New Jack could’ve possibly been if he ever ended up in the WWE, why his home life was important to discuss, Paul Heyman testifying in court to get New Jack out of trouble after the Mass Transit incident, how progressive his storylines were in Smoky Mountain Wrestling, OJ Simpson and plenty more.Follow Say Less:@SayLessWithKaz – Instagram@SayLessWithKaz – TwitterTheme Song Produced by BlaaqGoldOutro Produced by Krish RecordsProduced and Edited by Emilio SparksAssociate Producer – Jake Salter
