Dave Roskelley

He is an avid mountaineer with his eye on the next big challenge. A man who likes to do hard things and solve big problems. Dave Roskelley of Alpine just recently became the first American to summit the highest volcanoes on the seven continents. Of course, summiting the seven tallest peaks came before that. And before that, the granddaddy of them all: Mount Everest.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Erin Mendenhall

She started out as an environmental activist, concerned about Utah’s air quality. But rather than just talk about the issue, Erin Mendenhall got busy, ran for public office and landed a seat on the Salt Lake City Council. And now, after six years there, she is Salt Lake City's new mayor — just as concerned about the environment, but more empowered than ever to actually do something about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Frank Layden

He was arguably the first and most prominent face of the Utah Jazz when they first arrived in Salt Lake City in 1981. Frank Layden was the boisterous, often hilarious head coach who worked his way into the hearts of the fans, and most importantly, his players. Now at age 88, he's enjoying the fruits of all that hard work and affection.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Dehlin

It has been five years since "Mormon Stories" podcast host John Dehlin was excommunicated from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was a very difficult episode for him and his family, who also either left the church or are no longer active. The podcast began 15 years ago and has become a place where Latter-day Saints having a faith crisis can go for support and understanding. Now it has sparked a community of both former and current believers who look to Dehlin for camaraderie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ed Smart

His daughter and family have been through indescribable trauma. Ed Smart’s daughter Elizabeth was kidnapped by Brian David Mitchell and Wanda Barzee in June of 2002. Her miraculous safe return happened after nine torturous months of search, praying, and hoping.Since then, Ed and Elizabeth have become outspoken advocates for missing and exploited children with the Elizabeth Smart Foundation.But under the turmoil of this whole experience and aftermath, lay a deep anxiety the Ed had carried since he was 12 years old. After decades of marriage, six children, and life as an active Latter-day Saint (Mormon), Ed could no longer maintain what for him was a grotesque façade. After a crisis in faith, Ed finally admitted to his wife Lois of 33 years, that he is gay. And bombshell after bombshell, he informed each of his children, the Smart’s close friends, and finally the public.Bob Evans with FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City sat down with Ed Smart in December of 2019 for a 3 Questions interview.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mike Brown

It’s easy to look at police officers as the embodiment of official authority; enforcers of laws and rules; and a societal element to be cautious of, if not feared.But for those who look on them as corruptible bullies or worse, famed radio commentator Paul Harvey pointed out that less than one half of one percent of police officers “misfit the uniform”. And “that’s a better average than you’d find among clergy.”Walking the “thin blue line” is often a thankless job, fraught with mortal danger and never-ending hours chasing a never-ending stream of ne’er-do-wells. But you will never hear a police officer talk about how difficult their job is, despite the fact that most of us couldn’t conceive of what we really ask of them. In this 3 Questions interview, Bob Evans of FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City talks with Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown about the recent challenges his department has faced.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They are some of the most prominent people in our society: actors, entertainers, government leaders, athletes and other fascinating individuals - the people you want to hear more from. I'm Bob Evans with FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City, and my goal is to give my guests a place to offer deeper, more substantial answers to questions you won't hear anywhere else. We take those answers, whittle them down and call them "3 Questions with Bob Evans" on TV, but, on this podcast, you get the whole enchilada - the entire interview from which we create our "3 Questions" segment. So, turn it up, listen closely, and prepare to be intrigued, informed and enlightened.

I know Bob personally and he has no business interviewing anyone. He is good at reading the words people write for him and looking cute. Bob must never offer his opinion or attempt to think it is embarrassing. Like I said I have known him for years and he is as dumb as they come.

Bob Evans is dumb and gullible

3 Questions with Bob Evans

Carol Lynn Pearson

Carol Lynn Pearson shot to the top of literary awareness among members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the early 70’s and 80’s. Raised as a Latter-day Saint, she married Gerald Pearson in the Salt Lake City Temple, aware that he was gay, but with both of them thinking it was something that could be overcome with prayer and righteous living. But for all of their best efforts, Gerald’s sexual orientation wouldn’t budge. Recognizing their marriage could not survive, they divorced, and continued to love each other as committed friends. In fact, when Gerald contracted HIV Aids in the early days of that disease’s devastating run, it was Carol Lynn who cared for and nursed him until his dying breath. And thus her book, “Goodbye, I Love You”.Since that time, she has actively encouraged love and understanding for LGBTQ members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But that’s not all.Despite the Church’s abandonment of polygamy long ago, she has been disturbed by the concept of polygamy in the eternities, a mindset that has persisted in LDS thought and practice. As she took the temperature of fellow Latter-day Saint women and men, she found her sentiments were widespread. And thus her book, “The Ghost of Eternal Polygamy”.Bob Evans, with FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City interviewed her in October of 2019, for his segment “3 Questions”.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

James Curran

Don’t call him James the Mormon anymore. In fact, pretty soon you won’t be able to call him JTM either. For James Curran, getting to the top of the Billboard Rap Chart and having Number One iTunes releases has been the easy part. Dealing with his fame and notoriety in the LDS community has been another story.Raised in an abusive family, James Curran is used to disappointment and negativity. But he never anticipated the mixed reaction he’s gotten from his faith group because of his music. In fact, it has caused to him to abandon his moniker, which had attracted an audience he appreciates, but wasn’t aiming for. So how can he fix the music streaming algorithms that lump his secular rap music with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir?

At 100 years old, Gene England is a legend in the trucking industry. His father, Chester R. England, started what would become CR England Trucking in 1920, now the largest refrigerated trucking company in the USA.  At the age of 14, Gene and his 11 year old brother Bill, drove a truck load of potatoes from Utah’s Cache Valley to market in Wyoming. Having spilled most of their load when they were forced to take a detour off Highway 30, the boys were all alone through the night, reloading the truck. But the trucking bug bit both of them, and they joined their father in the business. Then, while a US soldier in World War II, Gene managed to save $5,000 dollars to buy his first big rig when he got home. And he’s been driving big rigs ever since. Gene and Bill took over the company when their father retired. And only in recent years has Gene stopped driving. His is a remarkable story of grit and determination, with some very interesting stories of the road along the way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nathan Ivie

There is an inner conflict that can occur inside those in the gay community prior to coming out. They may be living life according to the expectations of family and friends, but there is often a civil war of sorts going on inside them. And not until those very private thoughts and feelings become public, are they able to feel more at peace with who they feel they are and who they feel they were meant to be. Nathan Ivie was raised as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in Utah. His father is a cowboy. Nathan is a cowboy. His father works the land. Nathan works the land. And although he felt attracted to boys as a young age, Nathan grew up fulfilling the expectations of others; serving an LDS mission, marrying a woman, and having two children. Not until May of 2019, did he feel he was ready to finally declare how he really feels about himself and his sexual orientation. And as a County Commissioner in arguably the most conservative county in the country, his decision will have personal, professional, and political ramifications.FOX 13’s Bob Evans explored with him his decision to come out as gay.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Swallow

John Swallow is a man who is rebuilding his reputation. It was a long drop from Utah Attorney General to defendant in a public corruption trial that ended in his acquittal. When he and his predecessor, Mark Shurtleff, were accused of a complicated “pay for play” scheme, it became known as the biggest political scandal in the history of Utah.But the charges against Shurtleff were dropped. And Swallow was exonerated. And the State was left to pay millions of dollars to retire both men’s legal debts.In this 3 Questions interview, Bob Evans with FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City asks Swallow about the whole ordeal, how it has changed him, and what advice he has for future lawmakers to help them avoid the trouble he’s had.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jeff Flake

Former U.S. Senator Jeff Flake sees himself as someone who can work with his counterparts across the aisle, but it got to the point that the writing on the wall regarding reelection was clear: either fall in with the GOP in its support of President Trump, or prepare for defeat in the primary.Faced with that choice, Senator Flake realized he was in a no-win situation.

Astrid Tuminez

To call Astrid Tuminez accomplished seems like a gross understatement. She was born in the slums of the Philippines, one of seven children whose mother abandoned them when she was only 5. But she found her way out when Catholic nuns offered her and her siblings an education. Now, with numerous post graduate degrees, international political experience, and most recently serving as Microsoft's Regional Director for Corporate, External, and legal affairs in Southeast Asia, Astrid Tuminez has become the first female president of a major university in Utah.

Gail Halvorsen

It was post-World War II. The Russians had seized control of East Berlin, Germany… and were systematically trying to starve West Berliners by cutting them off from food and supplies. But the United States was not about allow the brutality of Russia to take any more West German lives, and began to fly food and supplies into West Berlin’s Tempelhoff airport. It was a daunting task, requiring round-the-clock flights. Gail Halvorsen of Garland, Utah flew many of those flights, noticing the German children waving their gratitude to the supply planes from the end of the runway. When he greeted them through the fence one day, he was impressed with how, despite their desperate circumstances, none of them had their hands out to beg, but rather, stood and smiled, thanking him profusely for bringing them what they needed to stay alive, and offering handshakes through the fence. He offered the only treats he had. Two sticks of chewing gum. They carefully received them, delicately removed the paper wrapping, and broke the sticks into as many pieces as they could to share with each child. When the gum ran out, they circulated the paper wrapper, and let each child smell the aroma of the gum.That’s when Gail Halverson knew he had to do something. And what he did has reverberated through seven decades now, touching and inspiring the lives of countless people, past and present.Bob Evans of FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City sat down in August of 2019 with the now-98 year old Gail Halvorsen for a 3 Questions interview.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was post-World War II. The Russians had seized control of East Berlin, Germany… and were systematically trying to starve West Berliners by cutting them off from food and supplies. But the United States was not about allow the brutality of Russia to take any more West German lives, and began to fly food and supplies into West Berlin’s Tempelhoff airport. It was a daunting task, requiring round-the-clock flights. Gail Halvorsen of Garland, Utah flew many of those flights, noticing the German children waving their gratitude to the supply planes from the end of the runway. When he greeted them through the fence one day, he was impressed with how, despite their desperate circumstances, none of them had their hands out to beg, but rather, stood and smiled, thanking him profusely for bringing them what they needed to stay alive, and offering handshakes through the fence. He offered the only treats he had. Two sticks of chewing gum. They carefully received them, delicately removed the paper wrapping, and broke the sticks into as many pieces as they could to share with each child.

Sam Spector

For hundreds of years, the Jewish people have been the victims of violence, discrimination, and derision. Even in the information age, where we know more about each other than ever before, rather than receiving increased tolerance, Jews continue to be the target of hatred, bigotry, and deadly attacks, both around the world, and here in the United States.While in the religious minority in Utah, Jews in the Beehive state have found somewhat of a refuge dating back to the 1850’s, just years after the Mormon Pioneers settled the valleys of the Rocky Mountains. From that time forward, a special kinship has developed between the Latter-day Saints and the Jews, whose narratives of enduring religious intolerance have paralleled each other to a degree.A recent survey by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany indicates 22% of millennials are either unaware or unsure of what the Holocaust is. In this interview with Rabbi Sam Spector of Congregation Kol Ami in Salt Lake City, FOX 13’s Bob Evans examines the reasons for the growing ignorance of the Holocaust, the reasons for continued animus against the Jews, and how the Jews and Latter-day Saints are getting along in Utah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2018, there were 58,083 wildfires that scorched 8.8 million acres in the United States. California's Mendocino Complex Fire in July 2018 was the largest in state history. But it was the Camp Fire in Butte County, Northern California in November of 2018 that became the deadliest and most destructive, killing 88 people, and all but decimating the city of Paradise, California. Who are the people that fight these fires? What does it take to put these fires out? And how do they know which fires to allow to burn, and which to throw everything they have into put it out?Bob Evans with FOX 13 News in Salt Lake City sat down with Jason Curry with the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands in September of 2019, for a 3 Questions interview.
