128. Hoosac Tunnel

Clayton got distracted this week, so it's Audio Editor Jeremy to the rescue! He brought us a story that's going to just absolutely thrill the engineer in your family. Also, there are ghosts. This is the story of the haunted Hoosac Tunnel. Come for the ghosts, stay for: bacon defense contracting; Timothee unlookalike; does Jeremy have the Internet?; big ol’ peeper; an afront to God; that’s West Virginia’s problem now; and call Jerry Bruckheimer.
