The Hermit Of Gully Lake

from Canada is Boring

In this episode of Canada is Boring, we dive into the strange, stubborn, and slightly tragic life of Willard Kitchener MacDonald, better known as the Hermit of Gully Lake. Draft dodger? Freedom fighter? Just a guy who really, really hated small talk? For more than 60 years, Willard lived alone in the woods of Nova Scotia, no phone, no electricity, no Amazon Prime. We unpack how a man survives (and thrives) off-grid for decades and why he became a local legend.All our links:https://bio.to/canboringThis podcast is hosted two idiots and created purely for entertainment purposes.
