Evel Knievel 30 Minute Expert

    • Society & Culture

In today's episode, Zack has 30 minutes to become an expert on... Evel Knievel! Who was Evel Knievel and how'd he get so evil? Just kidding! He's not evil, he's Evel. And he's not even really Evel - he's Robert! Learn along with us about how ol' Robby went from a regular life growing up in Montana, to becoming a full-blown daredevil. In between he runs (and steals from) a semi-pro hockey team, owns a Honda motorcycle dealership, and marries two different women named Linda. Evel turned out to be an even more fascinating character than we expected, complete with multiple broken bones and questionable marketing practices. What a guy! Extra incentive for this episode? Katie's rendition of Lionel Ritchie's "All Night Long."
Highlights include: (let's be real, this whole episode is highlights) 
- A broken pelvis... twice 
- Two Lindas
- Semi-Pro Hockey team the "Butte Bombers"
