You ever wish you could just take all your worries and bury them away? Well have we got the episode for you…

On this episode: we’ll see what the loudest possible way to wake up is; we’ll learn how rocks can actually work better than scissors; and we’ll learn the three most powerful ways to eradicate evidence of, well, anything.

This is the first episode we’ve done where the site of the catastrophe later became an annual sporting event recreating the event. The Frank Rockslide Disaster of 1903 stands as one of the most devastating and tragic events in the history of Alberta and was claimed to be the worst disaster that has even befallen any community in Western Canada.

Celebrity guests include: miracle surfing baby, Gladys Ennis; billionaire playboy, C. Montgomery Burns; former Alberta Premier, Fred Haultain; torture marathoner, Sid Choquette; business magnate and former mayor of Butte Montana, Henry L. Frank; and his partner Samuel Wilford Gebo; Royal charter enthusiast, King Charles II of England; explorer and historical murder victim, Hudson; the 9th Duke of Argyll, John Campbell; doorag pioneer, Queen Victoria, and her daughter Princess Louise Caroline Alberta.

And if you had been listening on Patreon, you would have enjoyed an additional 15 minutes where we discussed:

• lawyers vs British bands

• we talked about how I used to write idiot letters to companies and the time I successfully conned an Industrial Spring company

• also the time it resulted in my being investigated as a possible threat to Canadian aviation

• the oldest companies in history

• the most powerful earthquake in Canadian history

• we spent some time on the Appalachian Trail hurting ourselves on the Mahoosic Notch

• looked at a town that will be on fire for the next few centuries

• and what happens when disaster tourism meets shotguns
