Description: It's the dog days of summer and we've got some sweet, sweet pods to keep you company. Featuring: 1. Uncover: The Cat Lady Case – In 1997, a woman disappeared in Muskoka. Known by most around town simply as "the cat lady", the police suspected murder. But no charges have ever been laid, and her body has not been found. 2. Break Stuff – In 1999, a music festival took place in upstate New York that became a social experiment. There were riots, looting, and numerous assaults. And it was all set to a soundtrack of the era's most aggressive rock bands. 3. Spectacular Failures – "The beer that made Milwaukee famous" cuts corners. And loses its most loyal customers. 4. Best Friends with Nicole Byer and Sasheer Zamata – Comedians Nicole Byer and Sasheer Zamata are best friends, and now they have a podcast to prove it. 5. 1865 – April 15, 1865. President Lincoln is dead and the country in turmoil. Secretary of War Edwin Stanton takes control, determined to bring the assassin to justice—but the hunt for John Wilkes Booth isn't all that grips Stanton. 6. Muddied Water – Muddied Water brings to life stories from Winnipeg's 1919 general strike, 100 years later. In this episode we meet Helen Armstrong, a dedicated organiser who was underestimated by authorities because she was a woman.
