Confessions of a Super Bowl Streaker: 2. The Calling
About this episode
Every superhero has an origin story. For Captain Cock, it begins in Hong Kong, 1993.
Comedian Rich Hall takes us back to when Mark is a young bartender in the city’s chaotic nightlife district -far from Velcro trousers, tutus, or a global streaking career. Then comes a drunken dare at the Rugby Sevens, the kind most people laugh off and forget by morning.
What happens next will set the course of his life for the next three decades.
But hang on. Someone else remembers that event very differently. So what are the actual origins of this so-called origin story?
