Description

Happy St. John's Eve, listeners! We're in Ukraine this week for a get-rich-quick scheme gone terribly wrong. On the only night of the year when the ferns bloom, a young laborer travels deep into the hills on a quest to make himself worthy of the woman he loves. But a surreal sequence of events in a pitch-dark field of wildflowers leaves him reeling for years to recover the memories he lost that night. And even when that's over: does the devil still walk in his village? Join us for a special midsommar episode for all this and more.
