(Los Angeles, CA / March 21, 2023) — Industry Hall of Famer Ivan has been tapped to chat with David and Francis of the Spooky Dust podcast, dedicated to the art of death match wrestling, about his experiences working with Rob Black’s Xtreme Pro Wrestling organization – on Friday, March 17th at 9:00am (ET).
Better known in the wrestling community by his real name, Slava, the award-winning filmmaker will discuss a variety of topics on the subject, such as his recent involvement in recording the no-holds-barred matches across the country, and the rising popularity of the dangerous – and often quite bloody – sporting events, specifically within the adult film industry.
“I can’t believe how quickly things have moved for me in the Indy wrestling world,” he enthused. “The amount of eyes on my visuals from XPW makes me extremely happy. Doing this high-profile podcast is another example of what 2023 is heading to!”
The show, produced by Silver Ray Gun Art Studio (SilverRayGun.com), is available on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts and other quality platforms.

ABOUT IVAN:
Ivan, a respected and prolific adult industry producer/director and mainstream horror filmmaker of more than 20 years, is living his best life as the inspired force behind entertainment studios such as Alt Erotic, where he currently serves as CEO and Creative Director, as well as former companies such as Extreme Associates, Evolution Erotica, Anabolic, Desire Films, Pornstar Empire, and others.
Born in Russia, Ivan moved to the U.S. as a child and earned a degree in Cinematography before embarking on an entertainment career in mainstream film and TV. He came into the adult biz in 2002, making his mark with such movies as 2004’s Texas Asshole Massacre and 2005’s Dawn of the Head, earning him a number of awards, nominations and a Hall of Fame induction that celebrate his talents.
While reveling in his success as a filmmaker, media personality, entrepreneur and podcast host, the past few years have also seen him become involved with the XPW (Xtreme Pro Wrestling) organization in Southern California, and take on a surprise diabetes diagnosis that affected his ability to walk and work.
Between the extensive healing process, adopting a healthier lifestyle and developing new creative projects, “What I learned during this experience is how important it is to listen to your body. Many of us have this ‘I got this!’ mentality, but truthfully, we don’t. It’s a serious reminder to stop and do a wellness check on ourselves physically, mentally, business-wise and how we treat others. We hustle and bustle and just run with no breaks, but we need those breaks… they are crucial.” Visit IamIvan.com or follow on Twitter @IamIvanXXX.
