Holding the Fire at Chisasibi

Restless Viking RadioThe James Bay Road isn’t just long — it’s alone.In this episode, Chuck begins a northern run toward James Bay, driving thirteen hundred miles into a landscape shaped by hydro dams, silence, and history that runs deeper than the road itself.What starts as a convoy through frost-heaved pavement becomes something quieter and more human: an unexpected welcome, a fire by the water, and a reminder that some places — and some people — have been holding the fire long before the rest of us arrived.This is the beginning of the James Bay stories.The road ends here.Something older takes over.
