Unpacking the Tomb: Bury Me in Winnipeg
b"On a very spooky episode of Unpacking the Tomb, host Andre Ghoul-et welcomes 'Scary' Scott Price of the long-running Canadian history and media discourse show 'Radio Free Winnipeg' (co-hosted w/ 'Gruesome' Greg Gallinger) to talk about the little-known and much-neglected 'Gateway to the West'.
On which morbidly minor issue did the mayoral election revolve? What are the most macabre and major issues facing the city, and Manitoba as a whole? And what single word best defines the province's pallid and petrifying Premier Brian 'Poltergeist' Pallister? Plus: a rundown of last week's ghastly and gruesome civic political results from coast to coast.
