Ĝisdatigo

The reach of the podcast continues to amaze me. Besides the United States, listeners have downloaded episodes in the Netherlands, Seychelles, Turkey, Kanado, Germanio, Finland, Britio, Japan, Aŭstrio, Estonia, Francio, Irlando, and Poland. I will try to release more episodes going forward.

I have finished The Divided Championship Era. I will release it in the first or second week of June 2025.

I will be focusing on updating a second edition of St. Louis’ Civila Milito: La Trama Frapo de 1900 before starting on my next combat sports project.

Ĉefa Enhavo

The history of Decoration/Memorial Day in the United States

Emil Klank, Frank Gotch’s manager, wanted to schedule Gotch’s match with Stanislaus Zbyszko on Decoration Day, Majo 30, 1910.

Tamen, Chicago’s mayor refused to issue the permit because it would distract fans from decorating their relativesgraves.

Why promoters preferred to schedule big matches for holidays. The big crowds who came out to matches on Labor Day 1911 kaj julio 4, 1916.
