Andrew Pollard
Senior Writer
Once described as the Swiss Army Knife of WhatCulture, Andrew can usually be found writing, editing, or presenting on a wide range of topics.
As a lifelong wrestling fan, horror obsessive, and comic book nerd, he's been covering those topics professionally as far back as 2010. In addition to his current WhatCulture role of Senior Content Producer, Andrew previously spent nearly a decade as Online Editor and Lead Writer for the world's longest-running genre publication, Starburst Magazine, and his work has also been featured on BBC, TechRadar, Tom's Guide, WhatToWatch, Sportkskeeda, and various other outlets, in addition to being a Rotten Tomatoes-approved film critic.
Between his main day job, his role as the lead panel host of Wales Comic Con, and his gig as a pre-match host for Wrexham AFC games, Andrew has also carried out a hugely varied amount of interviews, from the likes of Robert Englund, Kane Hodder, Adrienne Barbeau, Rob Zombie, Katharine Isabelle, Leigh Whannell, Bruce Campbell, and Tony Todd, to Kevin Smith, Ron Perlman, Elijah Wood, Giancarlo Esposito, Simon Pegg, Charlie Cox, the Russo Brothers, and Brian Blessed, to Kevin Conroy, Paul Dini, Tara Strong, Will Friedle, Burt Ward, Andrea Romano, Frank Miller, and Rob Liefeld, to Bret Hart, Sting, Mick Foley, Ricky Starks, Jamie Hayer, Britt Baker, Eric Bischoff, and William Regal, to Mickey Thomas, Joey Jones, Phil Parkinson, Brian Flynn, Denis Smith, Gary Bennett, Karl Connolly, and Bryan Robson - and that's just the tip of an ever-expanding iceberg. Where his beloved Wrexham AFC is concerned, Andrew is co-host of the Fearless in Devotion podcast, which won the Club Podcast of the Year gong at the 2024 FSA Awards.

Due to the success of her sex tape, Joanie Laurer ended up making the transition to a career in porn. In 2011, Laurer would appear in Vivid Videos Backdoor to Chyna. Given the title of the film, Ill leave you to guess just exactly what the plot involves. Safe to say, it does exactly as it says on the tin. The following year would see Joanie play a take on Marvels She-Hulk character in Vivids Avengers porn parody. She would also get her own spin-off porn movie titled just She-Hulk in 2013. When HHH talked to Steve Austin about how certain life choices of Joanies were what gave issue to a possible Hall of Fame induction, the career in porn is a massive problem for the WWE. In fairness to Laurer, some of the current HOF inductees have had their own dark moments. The example cited by many is Mike Tyson. Convicted of rape in 1992, Tyson now resides in the celebrity wing of the WWE Hall of Fame.
