Strength can look like a lot of things and comedian Jessica Fostekew digs into some of the most unladylike sports going. This episode, we don our smartest lycra and spinnarooni into the world of Wrestling.

With the help of pro-wrestler Rhia O'Reilly, luchador Claire Heafford and wrestling megafan Sikisa, Jess unpacks the ins and outs of what it means to be a sturdy girl in the wrestling ring. We track the role of women in the sport from the early days of the Great Mae Young and the Fabulous Moolah and try to work out if it is even a sport, or is it in fact - as Claire insists - a performing art?
