S04E02: Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees — Don't Poke the Bear
When the sleepy animal town of Woodbrook is rocked by a spate of grisly murders, Yan and Nat pack their bags and set out in pursuit of truth, justice, and some of that true crime ad revenue.
With the whole town on edge, and no shortage of potential suspects, it's a podcaster's paradise among the pages of "Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees" by Patrick Horvath and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou! Now all our hosts have to do is keep their paws clean, their dinners down, and their mic levels green. Easy, right?
...right?
