Hey, it's Alan, and I just wanted to let you know that you can now listen to the ongoing

history of new music early and ad-free on Amazon music, included with Prime.

Hey, it's Alan, and I want to introduce you to a brand new season of a podcast that I think you'll

really like. It's called Dead Man's Curse, Volcanic Gold.

This historical true crime podcast is hosted by Crew Williams from history

television's hit original series Dead Man's Curse, the legend of the lost gold. And it

investigates the curse and legend surrounding the lost gold mind of Pitt Lake. In season one,

crew was on a quest to sort fact from fiction, and he was joined by members

of the Stolo and Catesy First Nations, historians and cultural experts of diverse backgrounds

to give an indigenous prospector named Slumach a voice from the other side of the veil.

This season, the team is back on the trail as they retraced the steps of unlucky fortune

seekers who went looking for

Slumach's legendary gold mine and vanished along the way. It's a journey through Canada's Wild West

and beyond, a gold-fevered expedition through time itself and directly into the heart of a curse.

In the episode that you're about to hear, we travel to 1931 and follow the efforts

of a search party fighting through a blizzard in BC's glacier country, looking for a missing

prospector who was well into his 80s and was as wild as the wind itself. His ability to sniff out

gold made him one of the best ever to play the game.

His name was Volcanic Brown, and he was on the hunt for a mother load, rumored to be worth

billions.

As days gave way to months, the search party only found his storm ravaged tent, his notebook,

an old shotgun, and a jar filled with giant gold nuggets.
