  • The Skylight Caper
    May 10 2025

    On the quiet Labour Day weekend of 1972, three masked men executed a daring heist at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Scaling a tree and slipping through a skylight under repair, they descended into the museum, subdued the guards, and made off with 18 paintings and 39 pieces of jewelry—valued at $2 million at the time, making it the largest art theft in Canadian history.Among the stolen works was a rare Rembrandt landscape, along with pieces by Delacroix, Rubens, and Millet.Despite ransom negotiations and extensive investigations, only two items have ever been recovered, and the culprits remain unidentified.

  • John Ware: Trailblazing the West
    May 3 2025

    In this episode, we ride into the extraordinary life of John Ware, one of the most iconic and underrepresented figures in Canadian history. Born into slavery in the American South, Ware rose above the brutality of his beginnings to become a celebrated cowboy, rancher, and folk hero in 19th-century Alberta. We explore his journey from enslavement to freedom, his unmatched skills as a horseman, and his profound impact on Western Canada’s ranching culture.
