Do you find yourself pondering how the Canada-U.S. Border between New Brunswick and Maine was decided? Have you been searching for a factoid for your next party, like, say, where and when was the first autopsy conducted in North America? Are you aware that the episode title is not just a clever play on Oasis' 1995 smash hit, but references a visible supernova that really did occur on October 4-5, 1604, just on the cusp of what ended up being a rather cold and miserable for Champlain, De Monts, and their company of men? Well, grab your limes and lemons because Gabe and Ken are speaking with Dr. Steven Pendery about the archaeology and history of Saint Croix Island International Historic Site, this fortnight on the New Brunswick Archaeology Podcast.
