Ep. 46: North Pond Hermit Dying to be Found
-
- True Crime
Meet Christopher Knight. An average citizen with above average intelligence, who simply feels the need to be by himself. At the age of 20, Christopher walked away from civilization to take on the wilderness and fend for himself. He never harmed anyone, nor even thought about it. He just felt the need to disconnect himself from society for 27 years. This is the story of the North Pond Hermit, who was dying to be found by northern Maine residents, not for violent crimes, but rather by being a nuisance. Join Deb and her co-host, Shelbey, as we bring you the tale of the North Pond Hermit, which is nothing like we've brought you before!
