The paranormal comedy podcast where we probe a human vs apes war from 1924. If you didn’t get that from the title… The Plains of Abraham are on the Southeast shoulder of Mount St Helens in America’s Washington State. Within those plains there is a canyon. That canyon is exactly where Fred Beck, Gabe Lefever, honourable John Peterson, Marion aka Leroy Smith and Smith’s son Roy went to prospect gold. The group, found a little more than they intended though because it wasn’t long before they were in active battle with what appeared to be a group of Bigfoot. Did they survive? Was there evidence? All that and more on this week’s file.
