Show Notes

The legend of Paul Bunyan looms large around the Midwest, in the literal form of roadside attractions and the more pervasive effects of eating at his namesake Cook Shanty in the Wisconsin Dells. In this episode (our 20th!), we discuss just a small selection of the bizarre Paul Bunyan art out in the world, read a tall tale, and somehow avoid giving those annoying modern-day lumberjacks even an ounce of the attention they so seek.
