Episode notes
Prospector Janet Varney and John Hodgman are ready to talk about all the GOLD in them thar hills!
That’s right; the show is back on the west coast, to spotlight California; everything from gold, bears, and even a cryptid or two.
In fact, California is on its way to having an official cryptid– Big Foot. But this is a monster that other states may feel a stronger claim to, even if the legislation is completely pushed through.
But no matter how that shakes out, let’s appreciate that amazing motto. Whether you’ve just pulled a shiny nugget or you’re just feeling good, it sure is fun to shout, “Eureka!”
