There is a shadow in the sky. It is a shade from the ancient past, one that smells of heroin and appears to be floating mere metres of the ground. It is the legend reborn. The myth of the Balloon Boyz has taken flight once more! Despite being long dead and partially eaten by polar bears, the legacy of the Balloon Boyz lives on!

On today's episode, we discuss two tales of survival. One focuses around cannibalism, as we discuss the story of the Donner-Reed Party and how they attempted to speed up the Oregon Trail with less than stellar success. We also talk about the airship Norge and how it picked up the torch following the valiant deaths of the Balloon Boyz.

We also have more from 'Who Let them Near a Keyboard?" and "Down the Rabbit Hole." So sit down and relax. Its time for the Late Shift.
