Johnny Appleseed Is No Myth And He Lived In Pittsburgh

Like St. Nicholas, whose life morphed into the legendary Santa Claus, John Chapman’s real life was so unusual that it inspired a legend.

In this episode of the Pittsburgh Oddcast, we put on our tin-can hats & dive deep into the legend of the man behind the myth & how the true story begins right here in our very own city, Pittsburgh.
