Mal Evans is best known as the Beatles’ roadie, but he was much more: a trusted confidant, driver, Mr. Fix-It, drug procurer, and, most importantly, husband and father. Today, we’re joined by Mal’s son, Gary, and the author of the new biography Living the Beatles’ Legend: The Untold Mal Evans Story, Kenneth Womack, to discuss Mal’s life, legacy, hidden talents, and why the Beatles wouldn’t have been the same without him.
