David Wants to Talk About The Donner Party

from Gettin' Sidetracked · host Gettin Sidetracked

Send us Fan MailIt's been pretty cold around here lately and it got David doing some thinking. Could he survive out in the wilderness during the cold? Hell no! Then he got to thinking about some other people that couldn't make it either. Namely a pretty big chunk of The Donner Party. We're getting just a little dark with this one. Join the guys as they discuss some of the terrible luck that these people experienced leading up to their eventual date with history and cannibalism. The worst road trip any of the guys have ever been on doesn't hold a candle to this one. All of this plus Planet Comicon, dying while shoveling snow and so much more on a brand new episode of Gettin' Sidetracked!
