B3 - "Eddie the Eagle" - a podcast by Andrew, Ed, and Zak

For the BBCollective’s second post-season bonus episode, Zak presents the story of Michael Edwards, AKA “Eddie the Eagle,” the English Olympic ski-jumper par not quite excellence who most famously captured the world’s attention with his “performance” in the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. Zak charts Edwards’ rise from humble every-man craftsman to international Olympic celebrity/influencer, and his ultimate transition to British cultural sensation in deep factual and humorous detail.
