Guest post by Miranda Wrights aka Emily Menn

A popular podcast from Discovery Network, Stuff You Should Know, recorded a great overview of derby. Based on an article by Tracy V. Wilson, this hilarious show walks you through the history, rules and culture of modern derby.

The hosts, Josh Clark and Charles “Chuckers” W. Bryant, have explained how hundreds of topics from sleepwalking to how mercenaries work. You’ll laugh out loud at their awe of fishnet burns and practice their sports commentary skills.

Check out the online article for a great interactive flash animation where you can run a jam. Visit: http://www.howstuffworks.com/roller-derby.htm
