We're back! Welcome back!
Season two is finally here, and at The Freak Show with J and D we go full "boar" baby (that is an intentional misprint, you'll see). What I mean is, there is no point in kicking off our sophomore season with just any old freak show athlete. We went straight to the "freak batter bakery" for this one as we launch into season two with none other than Mr. Bo Jackson himself.
Standing at a relatively modest 6 feet 1 inch tall, and weighing in at 227 pounds, Bo wasn't necessarily uncommon in stature, but his ability on the field(s) is unmatched even 30 years later. Drafted by the MLB and the NFL, and not only playing in both leagues simultaneously, but becoming an All-Star player in both leagues at the SAME TIME is an accomplishment that may never be witnessed again.
Discover the humble man behind the myths, the truth behind the legends, the Heisman trophy winning, MLB All Starring, the NFL Pro Bowler, the monster home run hitting, the fastest 40 running, and the multiple state championship title and record holdings that really solidify Bo Jackson's place at the top of the professional sports totem pole.
Grab a nice cold crispy, sprinkle some protein powder in your cereal and prepare to learn everything you didn't know about this true legendary freak show.
