Pretty Sure I Can Fly with Johnny Knoxville & Elna Baker Wondery
-
- Comedia
Pretty Sure I Can Fly is a humorous exploration of things that had never been done, until someone did them. It’s a series of weekly conversations about what it takes to break through the barrier of “impossible” and set new standards for human limitation. Pretty Sure I Can Fly is like going to history class, except your teachers are actor, stuntman, and outlaw radio DJ Johnny Knoxville and long-time This American Life contributor Elna Baker. And each week they bring a new guest to tell you all about how they “grabbed the bull by the bunglesteen” or “really hogwrenched that spatooly.”

Makin' Moonshine with Popcorn Sutton (feat. David Kushner)
This episode comes out for free on 07/01, and is available early and ad-free for Wondery+ subscribers.
Apologies for Knoxville's sound quality on this episode. Please direct all complaints/threats/rants to our producer, who screwed it up. But stick around, because this is our naughtiest episode to date. We have on writer David Kushner to talk about the Likker Legend, Popcorn Sutton (1946-2009), the whiskey he made his whole life, the fiddler he (may have allegedly) killed, his thoughts on cunnilingus, and so much more. -
Rowing Across the Atlantic with Tori Murden
In 1999, Tori Murden became the first woman to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She later went on to become the first woman to ski to the South Pole and climb the Lewis Nunatak mountain in the Antarctic. That's not to mention her time serving AIDS wards, spreading health awareness among heroin addicts, working for Muhammad Ali, and serving as the president of Spalding University. Oh, also she hates when we brag on her accomplishments.
