Wendigo

Jay ruins Mitch's sleep forever: Let's talk about Windegos.

The giant, hungry, murderous villian of Algonquian folklore, the Windego answers the age-old question: Would you rather run into a bear or a Windego in the woods? Choose the bear.

This episode contains descriptions of murder, cannibalism, auto-cannibalism, suicide, dismemberment, and other frightening topics, so don't listen around small children or small pets.

In addition to the fantastic Wikipedia page about Windegos, we also talked about this great article from All Things Interesting. We also mention the National Park After Dark and Tooth and Claw podcasts--check them out.

One last thing: Mitch is auditioning for a leading role in a stageplay he wrote, but he's nervous he wont get he part. Please like and comment on his video aution to boost his odds.
