Hey, this is the Corona Chronicles and this is Vincent here. I just wanted to give you guys

a little background on our last episode about the life and death of Floyd Collins. I think that's our longest episode.

So, yeah, we went way over, and I had to cut tons and tons and tons of stuff,

including a section we did at the end with Joe talking about some other things that happened

in that cave network that I thought was really fascinating.

But we were already just, it was already going so long.

I decided I'd

save it, make it a bonus episode. So we're going to play that. The other thing I really had to cut,

well, we had to cut, uh, you know, a lot of information about Floyd's life. And we also cut a lot

information about his death, about the things that happened to him after he died. Because it's

even crazier than we made it sound in the podcast.

So I just wanted to share just a few things before we get to Joe's story.

The first thing is that the song that we heard in the episode is called The Life and Death of Floyd Collins.

That right there is being performed by the Reverend Andrew Jenkins and Miss Irene Spain.

Oh, come all you good people and listen while I'm Andrew Jenkins and Miss Irene Spain. So that's that version of that song, it's about Floyd's life and death.

It was a little bit of a hit at the time.

There have been so many crazy things that have gone on with Floyd since he passed away,

including many documentaries, things like that, but then also at least one musical.

Play a little clip from that right now.
