#625 - Detailing the History of the Blue Devil!

We have a fun episode for you! On Episode 625, we discuss the history of the Duke Blue Devil mascot as we interview Bryan Reklis and welcome back Sam Klein!

Details of the Devil: The History of Duke’s Mascot is a documentary that covers the 102-year history of our beloved mascot and some of the moments that have made the Blue Devil so special to all of us. Sam Klein returns to help us discuss this topic as we welcome Bryan Reklis, Sr. Video Producer of Duke University’s office of Communications & Marketing to the show to discuss the documentary! Bryan helped write, direct, and edit this documentary, which is available on YouTube to watch.

With Bryan, we go through some of the parts of the film that were important in chronicling the history of the Blue Devil and we get into some stories that were not in the film. Sam Klein, who was the mascot while he attended Duke, also provides us with some info that did not make the film as we discuss why the Blue Devil is so lovable and some of the things that the mascots have to deal with in order to provide boundless energy to Duke sporting events.
