TRANSCRIPT Shmanners: The King of Dudes

Hello Internet! Gather around and hear the ballad of Evander Berry Wall, The King of Dudes! First, let’s talk a little about the evolution of the word “dude” and a little bit about the gender-fication of certain colors of clothes. Also, learn about the theory as to why men’s clothes tend to be bland compared to what they used to be. Then we get into the story of Evander Berry Wall! Hear of his early life and how he achieved (and defended!) the title of The King of Dudes! Hear about his love of dogs and how WW1 changed his life. Bonus, we’ll share some of Wall’s own life and style advice! Enjoy!
