Summary

The Donner Party, or Donner-Reed Party, was a group of American pioneersled by George Donner and James F. Reed who set out for California in a wagon train in May 1846. They were delayed by a series of mishaps and mistakes, and spent the winter of 1846–47 snowbound in the Sierra Nevada. Some of the pioneers resorted to cannibalism to survive.

Our theme song was written and performed by Anna Bosnick. If you’d like to support the show on a per episode basis, you can find our Patreon page here. Be sure to check our website for more details.

1:32.0	worry like any good Sherby brought some asses to do the heavy lifting. First up, please put your
1:37.5	hands together for two men who could supply the world's wool needs with their excess beard shed
1:42.2	and the world's power needs with their right hands. See so land. Heath. You know what I've been

2:28.2	trip altogether. Not anymore. All right. Well, before we get started, I want to thank all the folks
2:34.9	that keep the lights on without your financial support. We would be podcasting in the dark. And
