Degenerates Andy S and Brandon Bombay fly in off the top ropes to discuss 'The Wrestler.' We hear about the time when Andy dated a girl whose ex-boyfriend was a semi-professional wrestler, and how the ex confronted him at her house in an entrance that was fit for the ring. The guys talk about how this lo-fi film captures the essence of using your art to hide your personal flaws, and the many parallels between an artistic pursuit and being a stripper. Plus, how this is one of Marisa Tomei's best — and undeniably hottest — roles. 

'The Wrestler' is a 2008 American sports drama film directed by Darren Aronofsky. The film stars Mickey Rourke, Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood. Rourke plays an aging professional wrestler who, despite his failing health and waning fame, continues to wrestle in an attempt to cling to the success of his 1980s heyday.
