    Episode 2: Forrest Fenn's Treasure

    Episode 2 of Dial-a-Myth explores Forrest Fenn's treasure. Several years ago, Forrest Fenn, an art collector living in New Mexico, hid a 42-pound treasure chest somewhere north of Santa Fe. Since then, over 65,000 people have hunted for the treasure and experienced the thrill of the chase. Many thanks to my friend Kyle Courter for co-hosting, my wife for being a careful editor, and mudwerks for music and audio production. His work can be found at mudwerks.bandcamp.com/ I hope you like listening as much as I liked recording! Please share the podcast among friends if you like what you hear.

    Episode 0: What Are We Doing Here?

    This introductory podcast explains the concept and approach behind Dial-A-Myth. (Note: I got a little excited and referred to one of Barthes' essays being about boxing. It's about wrestling, which makes it even better. I meant it when I said I would bastardize the man.)
