INTERVIEW BEGINS AT 28:15

The 1980's were a time like no other, The world of Reagan and Thatcher, the death of Disco, and the rise of hair bands. Pac-Man and new coke, and in the middle of that an explosion in the popularity of Professional Wrestling. Then, out of nowhere, a group of women appeared on our TV screens, at first, very late at night on small cable channels, but soon the GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling) would become world famous...but what was it really like being in the middle of this hurricane of popularity?

Jeanne Basone was a young phlebotomist who answered an audition for a gig she wasn't quite sure was, soon, this sweet young woman became HOLLYWOOD, the greatest "BAD GIRL" in GLOW, and the only one who appeared from the pilot all the way thru the shows end.

We are so thrilled to have Hollywood herself join us to discuss her career, life and what it's like being an icon, legend, and Brian's all time dream woman!!
