  • #450 - Gang Brawls, Tall Tales & Hollywood - Evel Knievel - Part 3
    Feb 25 2025

    This week, we keep this crazy tale going, as Evel acquires a bit of fame, but is too injured from his numerous crashes to take advantage. He goes on a one man publicity blitz to promote his non existent jump over the Grand Canyon. He also cuts casts off of body parts in order to jump, gets in a bleacher clearing brawl with The Hell's Angels, and is approached by a major Hollywood actor, who wants to make his life into a movie!!


    Be so physically broken that you have to be helped on to your motorcycle, in order to jump things, attack a man by jumping off a moving motorcycle, and be played by George Hamilton in a movie with Evel Knievel - Part 3!!

    Feb 18 2025

    This week, we continue the epic tale of one of the biggest icons, ever! He finds his place in the world, by putting his life on the line, for entertainment. After trying to sell motorcycles, and becoming a one man burglary ring, he puts together a "daredevil team", and begins booking shows. His horrible crashes make him a spectacle, but his lying & scheming gets him spots on tv, and a gig to jump the fountains at Caesar's Palace in Vegas! Will he make it???


    Lie, cheat & steal your way through life, make your wife perform stoop labor, while you mess around on motorcycles, and pretend to be an attorney while scheming your way into a career changing event with Evel Knievel - Part 2!!

Brilliant

These guys are hilarious.
Cricket - “stockbroker’s baseball?”
One of many gems throughout the journey of episodes.
If you love true crime and sport this is brilliant, then go to Small Town Murder which will also suit your sense of humour. It’s Irreverent and charming 5*
