The Legendary Career of Beverly D’Angelo

Beverly D’Angelo may be best known as Ellen Griswold in the Vacation movie franchise, but she actually got her showbiz start as a singer! She was a rock n roller long before she ever graced the silver screen or Broadway stage! In fact, it was her incredible singing that landed her the award-winning role of Patsy Cline in Coal Miner’s Daughter alongside Sissy Spacek, and an in-person audition for the part in front of the legendary Loretta Lynn herself. Beverly recounts her days on the road with Rompin’ Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks, and explains how that led to Coal Miner’s Daughter which in turn led to Vacation. She remembers getting a call from Doug Ellin to make a one-off cameo appearance on HBO’s Entourage, and how that quickly turned into a recurring character. Plus, Beverly reveals her upcoming plans to make a music docu-series!

Dani Mo recently set the world record for the highest elevation women’s pro wrestling match after journeying to Nepal to wrestle on Kala Patthar in the Mt Everest region. Dani wrestled Nepal’s first-ever women’s professional wrestler, Baghawait Unika at 5,600 meters in a homemade wrestling ring carried up the mountain on a helicopter! That’s roughly 18,300 feet or 3.4 miles ABOVE sea level! It’s higher than Mt. Everest base camp which is why they chose that location. Dani details the entire story from her initial invitation from Unika to her 22-hour journey to Kathmandu, Nepal to her harrowing flights in and out of the world’s most dangerous airport in the mountain town of Lukla! She explains what it was like to wrestle on uneven, rocky ground with very little oxygen, how she overcame the language barrier with her opponent, and the unbelievable reason why she had to overdub her promo once she got back to the States.
