From the stage to the ring, Hulk Hogan’s journey is all-American grit, redemption, and God-given strength.
In Episode 51 of the Try That in a Small Town podcast, Hulk Hogan—the name, the legend, the symbol of 1980s strength and swagger—joins the show for a raw, inspiring conversation that goes far beyond body slams and championship belts. The episode offers an intimate look at Hogan’s incredible transformation from a rock ‘n’ roll dreamer to a global wrestling icon, and ultimately, to a man reborn through faith, humility, and heartland values.
Hogan pulls back the curtain on fame, failure, and the moment he realized worldly success couldn’t fill a God-shaped hole. What emerges is a story of real masculinity, of falling and getting back up, and of the power that comes from surrendering to something bigger than self.
This isn’t just nostalgia — it’s a roadmap for every American man who’s ready to stop performing and start living with purpose. Hulk Hogan didn’t just return to his roots — he planted new ones, deep in faith and freedom.
