August 7 - Olympic medallist Elvis Stojko
Manage episode 379300712 series 3417343
Good news! We've recovered this 'lost' episode, giving our fans an unexpected bonus from a recording session a few months back! This previously unearthed gem includes great stories about legends like Barry Bonds, Greg Maddux, Hal Sutton, Dominik Hasek, Ichiro Suzuki, Emmitt Smith, Jennifer Capriati and Roger Bannister. Plus, little-known nuggets about great sports personalities like Katie Ledecky, Alan Page, John Landy and Satchel Paige pitching for the Miami Marlins in the minor leagues. On top of all these great stories and laughs, we've got an incredible special guest - skating legend Elvis Stojko! One of the greatest athletes in Canadian history (he's also a high level martial artist and a race car driver), Elvis is probably the perfect guest to adjudicate our DORK DRAFT about the best multi-sport athletes in history. As well as being a legend and a great human being, Stojko is shockingly funny and self-effacing and even obliges us with a discussion about a certain mythical fight between him and a famous NHL player whose name rhymes with 'Derek Windross'. You've got to hear this one. One of our very best. Listen anywhere you get your podcasts or watch us on YouTube.
