The first! In this podcast, I tell the story of the disappearance of Ambrose Small, the Grand Theatre. My co-host for this one is Makayla Tavares, adding in jokes and generally being awesome. This was before I figured out what the name of the podcast would be, so I called it "Creepy Canada" in this one--appropriate for a ghost story.

Klondike Joe Boyle is quite possibly Woodstock's most entertaining citizen. His life was so full I had to split it into two parts. Enjoy Part 2, where our buddy Joe becomes the James Bond of eastern Europe during World War One.
