Today's episode is about a turn-of-the-century manhunt in the Mojave Desert that’s been told and retold by various folks over the years like a game of white people telephone… We never fully get the truth of what really happened, but I’ll do my best to parse through the tale of Willie Boy whose story has now been portrayed in multiple movies. Ringa Sunn is joining me today from Pittsburgh, and they're going to tell us all about the post-apocalyptic vibes that make up the great state of Pennsylvania. Want to support me?
