What if everything we think we know about Sasquatch is wrong? This week, we explore a much darker side of Bigfoot lore—one filled with violence, fear, and unanswered questions. This isn't the gentle forest giant myth we've all heard. Instead, we dive into chilling cases where unexplained deaths, strange disappearances, and disturbing evidence suggest something far more dangerous may be roaming our wilderness.From a Creek Indian found beaten to death in a prayer position in 1920s Oklahoma to a blood-soaked campsite in modern-day Minnesota, the stories we cover hint at a pattern of brutal encounters stretching across decades. We revisit the eerie abandonment of Port Chatham, Alaska, where residents fled from a terrifying creature they called the nantiinaq. We examine the desperate final moments of Jim Carter, an expert skier who vanished without a trace near Mount St. Helens, and the baffling disappearance of Bart Schleyer, a seasoned bear expert whose remains were scattered across the Yukon wilderness. We also confront the unsettling mystery of Theresa Ann Bier, a teenager who vanished on a Sasquatch expedition, and Jordan Girder, whose winter survival camp ended in inexplicable bloodshed.Throughout the episode, we question why so many of these deaths are written off as accidents or misclassified by officials, and what it might mean if the intelligence behind these incidents is greater than we want to believe.Is Sasquatch truly a misunderstood relic—or are some of the legends warning us about something real, something we've chosen not to see?

Born and raised in Whitehorse, Yukon, they are the author of thirteen books, the creator of four films, six stage shows, and three albums that combine storytelling with music. Coyote's books have won the ReLit Award, been named a Stonewall Honour Book, been longlisted for Canada Reads, and been shortlisted for the Hilary Weston Prize for non-fiction and the Governor General's award for non-fiction twice. In 2017 Ivan was given an honorary Doctor of Laws from Simon Fraser University, and in 2023 they received the first Honorary Doctor of Arts ever bestowed on anyone by Yukon University.

Ivan's stories manage to handle both the hilarious and the heartbreaking with reverence and compassion, and remind us all of our own fallible and imperfect humanity, while at the same time inspiring us to change the world.

Xuan Liu just detonated one of poker's longest-standing glass ceilings—busting a 200-event streak with the first female title in Triton history, taking down the $25 000 WPT Global Slam in Montenegro (155 entries, $860 000 up top). I had to know how she did it, so we sat down to trade war stories: her Yukon bankroll challenge that started with two grand total (flights included), the cliquey staking webs that freeze most women out of 25 Ks, and why she thinks “marketing yourself” is the truest edge in high-rollers.From double-board bomb-pots in the Arctic to four-bet battles on Poker Night in America, we unpack the mind-game, the money game, and the human game... plus a few leaks we're still plugging.If you're chasing freedom through cards... or just wondering how a calm Canadian-Chinese grinder became the “Queen of Triton”, hit play, drop a comment, and let's keep pushing the ceiling higher!CHAPTERS00:00 – Introduction & Xuan's breakthrough Triton win01:45 – Are there other female high-roller champs?03:30 – Where Xuan ranks among the game's top women05:35 – The real barriers keeping women out of high-stakes poker08:55 – Selling action online as a launchpad to live events11:45 – Why community (and clean staking deals) matter14:30 – Cash-game cred vs. tournament glory18:50 – Stream games, thumbnails & the “female click-factor”22:00 – The $2k cross-Canada bankroll challenge28:15 – Yukon bomb-pots and soft PLO edges33:40 – Wild travel poker tales from Newfoundland to Nunavut38:45 – Couch-surfing, poverty roots & those early $5k shots40:45 – Cutting costs: practical tips for the tour-grind lifestyle43:50 – Re-igniting passion, building brand & fresh content goals46:30 – WSOP plans, mixed-game temptations and China tour50:15 – Dating on pause: focus, independence & life balance52:45 – Growing the women's game: golf analogy & untapped markets55:40 – Final reflections, bracelet dreams & sign-offPINNED COMMENTWho should I have next on the podcast?
When it comes to climate anxiety, most of us swing between utter despair or self-protective numbness. In our doom-scrolling attention economy, these are natural, but not always helpful, responses.In this episode, Jennifer speaks with climate scholar, educator, and author of A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety Sarah Jaquette Ray to explore how we might move through the heaviest of climate emotions—without turning away, burning out, or losing touch with what we love.They explore:The toll of burnout and the unexpected clarity grief can bringWhat it takes to face the monster of climate chaosThe new texture of climate activism—intimate, relational, and imperfectGrounding practices to help us stay courageous and awake in ecological unravellingTogether, they reflect on the emotional and relational labor of holding space during collapse, the wisdom exchanged across generations, and the quiet courage it takes not to fix—but to animate activism with love.Links & resources—Learn more about Sarah Jaquette Ray's workGet A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep your Cool on a Warming PlanetGet Jennifer's Substack NewsletterFollow Jennifer on Instagram or LinkedIn Gratitude for this show's theme song Inside the House, composed by the talented Yukon musician, multi-instrumentalist and sound artist Jordy Walker.

Mike Burke, Director and VP of Corporate Development, returns to provide an exploration update from the ongoing 30,000-meter drill program at the RC Gold Project in the Yukon's Tombstone Gold Belt. Key Theme: Sitka hits 211m of 1.13 g/t Au, including 73m of 2.04 g/t Au, at the Blackjack Deposit – the first hole of its summer drill program. Discussion Highlights: Summer Drill Results Begin: Hole 77 delivers strong results from the Blackjack Zone, validating expansion potential with broad and higher-grade intercepts. 3-Zone Strategy: Sitka is advancing drilling across Blackjack, Saddle, and Eiger zones - 15,000m allocated - plus targeting Rhosgobel with 10,000m. Deep Expansion Potential: Winter Hole 76 extended deeper into mineralization; Sitka is building out an underground model to complement near-surface ounces. Early Assay Progress: Over 10,000m drilled across 23 holes - completed ahead of schedule and under budget. Company has the flexibility and cash to expand beyond 30,000m. Rhosgobel Discovery: First three holes in this year's program show visible gold, following last year's 119m of 1.05 g/t Au in first-ever diamond drilling at this target. Lab Turnaround & Yukon Activity: Assay delays are building as multiple companies ramp up big programs, but Sitka uses visible gold to guide ongoing drilling. If you have any follow up questions for Mike please email me at Fleck@kereport.com. Click here visit the Sitka Gold website to learn more about the Company.
In this company update, I'm joined by Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold (TSX.V:BY - OTCQB:BYAGF), to discuss the June 25th drill results from the Airstrip Deposit at the AurMac Gold Project in Yukon. After focusing much of the recent drill work at the Powerline Deposit, Banyan is revisiting Airstrip - the original discovery zone - with near-surface, high-grade results. Highlights include: 38 meters of 3.8 g/t gold, 16 meters of 9.32 g/t gold, and 28 meters of 1.3 g/t gold starting just 10 meters from surface. Tara explains how recent metallurgical testing (90–93% recoveries) supports a future mill-based operation, making Airstrip more economically viable than initially assessed. The company is now actively stepping out to the north, east, and west, tracing a felsic dyke contact zone believed to be linked to higher grades. Key topics covered: The evolving role of the Airstrip Deposit in the overall resource model. How real-time data modeling is optimizing drill targeting. Drilling strategy adjustments with over 18,000 meters completed out of a planned 30,000+ meter program. Exploration potential at depth and between Powerline and Airstrip, including follow-up of geophysical targets. Timeline and approach to news flow as results from Powerline and other areas continue to come in.

In this episode of 'Coffee Break' author Beth Lewis joins me to talk about her stunning new historical crime novel, 'The Rush'. The gold rush narrative typically conjures images of rugged men panning rivers and staking claims, but Beth Lewis deliberately shifts focus to three women whose paths cross during the Yukon Gold Rush of 1898.The RushGold fever has taken him. I believe he means to kill me...Canada, 1898. The gold rush is on in the frozen wilderness of the Yukon. Fortunes are made as quickly as they're lost, and Dawson City has become a lawless settlement.In its midst, three women are trying to survive on the edge of civilisation. Journalist Kate has travelled hundreds of miles after receiving a letter from her sister, who fears that her husband will kill her. Martha's hotel and livelihood are under threat from the local strongman, who is set on buying up the town. And down by the river, where gold shimmers from between the rocks, Ellen feels her future slip away as her husband fails to find the fortune they risked so much to seek.When a woman is murdered, Kate, Martha and Ellen find their lives, fates and fortunes intertwined. But to unmask her killer they must navigate a desperate land run by dangerous men who will do anything for a glimpse of gold...Follow Beth LewisSend us a textA Case Study In Corporate Fear"A Case Study in Corporate Fear" deconstructs how fear transforms successful...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show"Enjoying 'The Conversation'?

“We survived the Dempster Highway”. That's the shirt my son Owen bought me for Father's Day, a bit prematurely in hindsight. But not even halfway north on the all dirt 550 mile road (1,100 mile round trip) to the Arctic Ocean, we found ourselves stranded with a broken leaf spring at mile 225 in Eagle Plains, Yukon. But thanks to some bush fixes, 5 tire fixes and with some help from some really nice locals and fellow travelers, we made the 7 day journey and share the story in this segment of the show.

In early May, on the morning of the kuu.éex --a nightlong ceremony in celebration of Tlingit ways of life, to honor relatives, and in this specific gathering, the herring -- we circled round a coffee table, folks on the floor, in chairs, cozied up on the couch and listened to Deloole & Rochelle talk about protecting Indigenous sovereignty in the Yukon river water shed. They share about the importance of art, fighting big gas & oil companies, feeding their families, how to be an ally in their struggle... and calls to action, including a peaceful protest & media push this coming Friday, June 20, a Day of Prayer for Salmon. We want to bring attention to this vital work as this administration escalates the targeting of public - ie: stolen - land.Deloole & Rochelle illuminate the many ways white settler colonial violence extracts from, steals, and harms indigenous people, the lands we live on, and our relatives – from herring, salmon & moose, to trees, forests and rivers – all of us across this continent.Amidst violent ICE raids on Tongva land & across Turtle Island, & escalation of the genocide in Palestine, we bring you this heartfelt conversation from Lingit Aani, Tlingit land in Sitka, Alaska, with Deloole Erickson & Rochelle Adams, who organize with many groups, including Native Movement.Stay tuned for an upcoming series in collaboration with the Herring Protectors and Movement Generation, deepening into many themes shared on this episode.Thank you to Movement Generation for inviting so many of us to come together across the Salmon nation last summer, seeding generative relationships across colonially imposed borders. We are excited to keep building together.FOLLOWFB: Defend the Sacred AK | IG: Defend the Sacred AKFB: Yukon River Inter-Tribal Fish CommissionFB: Native Peoples Action | IG: Native Peoples ActionFB: Native Movement | IG: Native Movement FB Group: Doyon Shareholders for Protecting Our Lands & Waters

An extraordinarily joyful, heartfelt and life-affirming episode of Now or Never, as five people nearing the end of their lives invite us into their final wishes.When Susan LaFeuvre was told her cancer was terminal, she knew what she wanted her final wish to be: a private aerial silks performance by her 11-year-old granddaughter Lauren.Casey Kemble and his daughters Serenity and Amy made a family tradition of spotting roadside attractions while driving old beaters from Ontario to the Yukon. Now they're planning one last trip together, as part of what Casey calls his “beaker list" -- because he doesn't have time or money for a bucket list. Why this family is leaning into laughter as they make memories together.Ellen Nadarajah is a single mom to three teenagers, cares for her aging parents, and is the social convenor for her lifelong friend group. She also has metastatic breast cancer, weighs less than 60 pounds and wasn't expected to still be here. So today, we're making her final wish come true with a photoshoot that puts her in the spotlight, creating a powerful image she hopes will inspire others.Joe and Darlene Sarazin are the round-the-clock caregivers for their 42-year-old daughter, April-Lee, who has complex medical needs. Worried about what will happen to their daughter when they're no longer around, the parents have spent close to two decades advocating for a new care facility in Saskatchewan for people like April-Lee. Now that they're getting closer to that dream, they're also grappling with letting go of their daughter.Growing up, Bill Denning lived above his family's funeral home, getting a daily reminder of how precious life is. Now, as a fourth-generation funeral director he has a front row seat to people's final wishes, including funeral dance parties and drink orders from beyond-the-grave.

Angela and I give an update from Eagle Plains, Yukon. We've got a broken leaf spring but thanks to some very helpful Canadian friends, we've got it fixed and will limp out today.

In this companion to my conversation with Joshin Byrnes on The Vowing Mind, here's a short practice of seeing those you love—and those you judge—with fresh eyes.We all carry fixed ideas of who others are: the reliable one, the difficult one, the person we think we've got dialed. In this guided meditation, you'll be encouraged to loosen those ideas, and to meet others anew, with curiosity and compassion.This practice will help you recognize the complexity and unfolding nature of those around you—their strengths and struggles, the systems that shaped them, and the mystery beyond what we think we know.You'll experience: – A short grounding and breath awareness – An inquiry into see someone you love as whole, dynamic, and unknowable – A closing invitation to meet them again and again with curiosity.Whether you're working with a loved one or someone you find challenging, this practice offers a potent return to presence and reconnection. ✨ You can listen to this practice before or after the Joshin Byrnes episode on The Vowing Mind, or return to it anytime you want to meet another human being more freshly. Gratitude for this show's theme song Inside the House, composed by the talented Yukon musician, multi-instrumentalist and sound artist Jordy Walker. Artwork by the imaginative writer, filmmaker and artist Jon Marro.
