  • Canadian Legends: The Lost Lemon Mine and The Vanishing Village at Angikuni Lake

    Canadian Legends: The Lost Lemon Mine and The Vanishing Village at Angikuni Lake
    Mar 3 2025
    Episode 356: In this episode, we explore two enduring Canadian legends that have captivated imaginations for generations. Our journey begins with the Lost Lemon Mine, a tale from the Canadian Rockies dating back to 1870. Two prospectors, Frank Lemon and "Blackjack," allegedly discovered gold, but their expedition descended into a dark saga of murder, madness, and an alleged curse that has kept the mine's location hidden for over 150 years. We then venture to the frigid wilderness of Nunavut, where the mystery of the vanishing village at Angikuni Lake unfolds. In November 1930, fur trapper Joe Labelle reportedly discovered an abandoned Inuit settlement, sparking an investigation and endless speculation about the disappearance of an entire Inuit village. Join us as we delve into these fascinating Canadian mysteries, examining the evidence, historical context, and their lasting impact on the nation's folklore.

  • Homicidal Somnambulism: Are You a Murderer if You Kill in Your Sleep?

    Homicidal Somnambulism: Are You a Murderer if You Kill in Your Sleep?
    Feb 24 2025
    Episode 355: In this episode, we explore a phenomenon that blurs the line between consciousness and culpability: homicidal somnambulism. Can a person be held responsible for murder if they commit the act while sleepwalking? We'll examine two haunting cases that have grappled with this very question. First, we'll unravel the infamous story of Kenneth Parks, who, in 1987, drove 23 kilometres from his home in Pickering to Scarborough, Ontario, where he brutally attacked his in-laws, Dennis and Barbara Woods, killing his mother-in-law. Then, we'll turn our attention to the lesser-known case of Clayton John Vickberg, who attempted to kill his friend Hugh Heglin in Victoria. B.C., in 1996, while allegedly in a state of automatism. These cases challenge our understanding of criminal intent and raise unsettling questions about the nature of consciousness itself.

my husband and I really enjoyed this episode. I ever only knew about Vince Coleman, but not really about anything else of the origin of the ship that exploded.

RESPECTFUL.

attention is paid to the victims. none of the criminals are glorified. but this is more than true crime. It looks at the history of Canada, that does not get a lot of attention, dark incidents and the events surrounding them. My favourite is the episode about the Halifax explosion. although I would love it to be updated with the superior co-host who would add more depth. I want to hear more history!

Very well done and respectful

Just the right balance of info to satisfy curiosity without over the top graphic details. They tell the stories of the victims and their families in respectful ways.
