In this whimsical episode of Rainy Day Rabbit Holes, we dive into one of Washington state’s quirkiest political scandals: Beardgate ’73. Governor Dan Evans—known for his sharp mind and clean-cut image—set off a bizarre chain reaction when he grew a beard during a family vacation. While the beard’s time was short-lived, the drama it unleashed was unforgettable.

From letters comparing him to Rip Van Winkle to accusations of looking like a “wild timber wolf,” Washingtonians didn’t hold back their opinions. But amidst the laughter, we also reflect on Evans’ remarkable legacy as a leader, one whose policies left an enduring impact on the state.

Be sure to tune in for laughs, insights, and a story that proves even the smallest decisions can make big waves.
