On this edition of Parallax Views, you will hear an incredible story that, on its surface, you may mistake as being just about professional wrestling: the life and career of "The Golden Greek" Jim Londos. He was the biggest star of not only pro wrestling in the 1920s and 1930s, but arguably of sports itself. His popularity eclipsed that of the profession itself. He sold out stadiums of tens of thousands. Contrary to popular misconceptions, pro wrestling was not simply the domain of smoky rooms before the era of Hulk Hogan. Jim Londos is proof of that. In fact, it may be fair to say that Jim Londos was Hulk Hogan before Hulk Hogan. And just to drive that point home, one only need look at his match against Kola Kwariani on October 22nd, 1933 in Athens, Greece at the Panathenaic Stadium. The attendance for that event? It's said to be between 65,000 and 100,000. Simply put, Londos was a phenomenon. But, his story is much more than that of a pro wrestler. Londos is the story of an immigrant to the United States overcoming all odds. He is the story of a man who gave hope to the masses in the trying times of The Great Depression. A man who became a symbol of being able to overcome the greatest adversities. He was smaller in stature than many of his wrestling contemporaries. The classic underdog. And the fans loved him for it. He was their hero. He was "The Golden Greek" of professional wrestling. Joining J.G. on this edition of the show is journalist Steven Johnson. Although Johnson has done a lot of journalism related to pro wrestling and its storied history, he's also been a U.S. Senate aide and newspaper editor. Moreover, he has master's and Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. Over more than a decade he worked on a book to finally tell the story of Jim Londos. That book, recently released, is entitled Jim Londos: The Golden Greek of Professional Wrestling. Part of MacFarland's Studies in Strength of Physical Culture series, this book uncovers the life and times of an athletic performer who has been unfairly forgotten due to having wrestled in the pre-television era of the professional wrestling. In this conversation Steven I will discuss how he came around to the story of Jim Londos, the ways in which Londos story differs greatly from the more tragic rise & fall of early television-era wrestling Gorgeous George, the trials and tribulations of Jim Londos as a young immigrant in the United States of America in the early 20th century, the ways in which Londos is comparable to the mythical figure of Jason in the story of Jason and the Argonauts, how the legacy of Londos is carried on today by wrestlers like Bryan Danielson (aka Daniel Bryan), WWE superstar John Bradshaw Layfield's (JBL) foreword to the book, the wrestling double-crosses of the early 20th century that long predated the WWE's infamous "Montreal Screwjob", the colorful wrestling promoters of the Londos era (such as Toots Mondt and the Gold Dust Trio, Jack Pfefer, and Jack Curley), the legendary years long feud between Jim Londos and Ed "The Strangler" Lewis, Londos ability to make a crowd not only "believe" but "care" about his journey as a wrestler, and much, much more.

On this edition of Parallax Views, the biggest wrestling event of the year is only days away: WrestleMania. Billed as the "Showcase of the Immortals," WrestleMania is the marquee event of World Wrestling Entertainment and has been going strong for over 40 years. On April 19th and 20th, WWE will present WrestleMania 41. Yes—FORTY-ONE. Ahead of the big event, I spoke with Gary from the YouTube channel Grapplevision—one of the most unique and compelling voices in pro wrestling media today. While most wrestling YouTubers focus on current events or canonical moments like the Montreal Screwjob, Hulk Hogan's heel turn, or Mick Foley's infamous fall off the Hell in a Cell, Grapplevision dives into the ghosts and glitches of wrestling history. It's a channel immersed in what you might call phantom histories: forgotten figures, obscure promotions, uncanny storylines, and the lingering specters of wrestling's carny roots. What sets Grapplevision apart is its unmistakably hauntological aesthetic—think VHS degradation, lost tapes, and late-night public access weirdness. The channel's documentaries are layered with analog textures and deep archival digs, evoking the era of tape trading and underground fandom. In many ways, it feels less like a recap or explainer and more like a séance conducted with a turnbuckle and a cathode-ray screen. From the blurred lines of shoot vs. worked fights (explored in the "Wrestling Gets Real" series), to Japanese deathmatch icon Atsushi Onita's exploding barbed wire spectacles, to strange pop culture crossovers featuring Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, and Jim Varney's Ernest P. Worrell—Grapplevision chronicles the strange, forgotten, and surreal corners of the squared circle. All this with an intro that cheekily nods to David Cronenberg's Videodrome. In this sprawling, four-and-a-half-hour conversation, you'll hear from someone who's not only been inside the industry but has also taken on the role of archivist and cultural historian. Even if you're not a wrestling fan, there's something here for anyone interested in performance, memory, mythology, and media.

This six-part documentary delves into how McMahon transformed WWE from a small regional operation into a global powerhouse, while also examining the darker aspects of his reign, including numerous scandals and sexual misconduct allegations that ultimately led to his resignation. Directed by Chris Smith (Tiger King), the series draws on over 100 hours of interviews with McMahon, his family, and key figures in the wrestling world, giving viewers an unfiltered look at his rise and fall. A central theme is the blurring of lines between McMahon's on-screen persona as the villainous “Mr. McMahon” and his real-life behavior. The series positions him as both a visionary and a figure responsible for perpetuating a toxic culture within professional wrestling. McMahon's eventual downfall is presented as a self-inflicted tragedy, reinforced by his own statements and the testimonies of those close to him . The show serves as both an exposé and a reflection on McMahon's complicated legacy, with Netflix positioning it as a major transition for WWE as it moves into a new era under different leadership. Episode Breakdown: Episode 1: “Junior” Covers Vince McMahon's early years, focusing on his rise to power in WWE after taking over from his father.

Interviews: Vince McMahon, Shane McMahon, Linda McMahon, Triple H (Paul Levesque), and Dave Meltzer (Wrestling Observer). Episode 2: “Heat” This episode dives into McMahon's federal steroid trial in the 1990s and other scandals that began to mar WWE's image. Interviews: Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Jimmy Hart, and USA Network executives. Commentary from insiders like Bruce Prichard and Eric Bischoff adds depth to the era's controversies. Episode 3: “Screwjob” Focuses on the infamous Montreal Screwjob, where McMahon's on-screen and off-screen personas blended, turning him into the villain “Mr. McMahon.” This episode also covers the fallout and the birth of WWE's Attitude Era. Interviews: Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Bruce Prichard, and others. Episode 4: “Attitude” Covers the peak of the WWE during the “Attitude Era,” highlighting stars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and D-Generation X. It also touches on darker moments like Owen Hart's tragic death during a live event. Interviews: The Rock, Steve Austin, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and WWE production crew members. Episode 5: “Family Business” Focuses on Vince's family dynamic, the public offering of WWE stock, the creation of the XFL, and his children's increasing roles within the company. The departure of stars like The Rock and Austin is also explored. Interviews: Shane McMahon, Stephanie McMahon, Linda McMahon, and Triple H. Episode 6: “The Finish” This episode chronicles McMahon's fall from grace due to multiple allegations of sexual misconduct, leading to his resignation in 2022.

August 1997 was a quaint period in wrestling history: Before the Montreal Screwjob, before D-Generation X and Hell in a Cell and the Attitude Era, there was a tame little title match at SummerSlam 1997 that would redefine everything. It's Bret Hart versus the Undertaker with Shawn Michaels as guest referee, and it leads directly into a brand new era for WWE. It also partially inspired the recent Drew McIntyre/CM Punk match with Seth Rollins as ref, continuining the trend of Punk paying "homage" to the much better stuff that came before him. Join us as we rewatch this classic showdown.
