[edit] Pro Wrestling
"The Artiste" Rob Sanderson is best known for his co-hosting of The Pain Clinic pro wrestling radio talk show, which airs on Hot Talk 1280 WHTK-AM in Rochester, New York. Sanderson started on the show on July 28, 2001 and worked as a phone screener. He started to participate more on-air, eventually becoming a regular co-host, leaving the phone lines behind.
