Description

Trigger warning today, we will be discussing the murder of a child. In 1954 Daniel Wood went off to fish with friends, never to return. All we know is he called his mom to say he got hired by a travelling salesman, only to be found dead nine days later. This is a truly awful story, but B and Jackson look into this grisly history and think about the world of yesterday versus today. All this and more.
