Bob's conversation with Matthew Jasper in Episode 5 launched a zillion Minnesota-oriented inter-web inquiries. Listen here as Bob reveals his extensive research on all matters Minnesota, discovering answers to a host of timeless questions, such as: How many Brotens played in the NHL? Is Minnesota really the biggest hockey state in the land? What pivotal moment in the film Purple Rain revolved around hockey? What sports scandal took place on Lake Minnetonka? What is the greatest Prince album of them all? What hockey-related thing did Bob once say to a Penguins fan that almost led to fisticuffs? Plus, a very revealing bonus segment from our interview with Matthew Jasper.
