87: The Mad Trapper of Rat River

In 1931, a bizarre man with a thick accent arrived in an arctic outpost at the northernmost region of Canada. Some say he came from further north, others from the prairies to the south. But no one could predict what would happen after he vanished. This is the true story comedy podcast of the next generation.
