Mountain Men — Rendezvous and Burning Man

What better way to start off your week than with a bit of discussion on a topic that is timely, newsworthy, and altogether serious? That’s right, the lads of the twaddle are taking on Mountain Men. We explore the origins of the beaver pelt “extravaganza” and the remarkable, heroic, and sometimes unsettling history of the Mountain Men. Also, Jim Bridger was an influencer; the Mountain Men Rendezvous were the predecessors of Burning Man; and Jake’s deep skepticism of history is finally revealed—all that and more on today’s episode.
