Very rare on a podcast do the hosts sit back and just listen. This is one such instance where the story was so fascinating, that's all they could do.
There are tears, there are laughs, and there are shivers down your spine as Steve and Greg take the reins on this episode, simply titled Mauled.
"I picked up my goatee, and put my jaw back in", how 'Baby Shark' kept him going, to his final goodbye letter - be ready to listen for a straight 60 minutes, because once you start, you won't want to stop.
This conversation starts in August 2017.
Jeremy Evans endured multiple ferocious attacks by a protective female grizzly bear while hunting in the Alberta wilderness.
Jeremy’s injuries were massive, his scalp and face destroyed, an eye and his jaw dangling down. The tendons on one leg had been fully severed during the mauling. His hands were damaged where he had physically fought the bear. It was more than a dozen kilometres to where he had parked his truck in darkness early that morning and absolutely no one was near. Thoughts of his wife and their eight-month-old daughter consumed Jeremy as he stumbled and crawled for hours back to his truck, before driving himself several kilometres to a backcountry lodge for help.
All the while, Jeremy thought of his young family and the upcoming sixth wedding anniversary that he feared he might never be able to celebrate.
