The Bank of Utah's Where’s the Wallet Cash Quest has come to a close—and spoiler: we didn’t win. But the winners did agree to come on our podcast and tell us how they solved it, so that’s something.In this episode, we interview the dream team behind the find (Jeanette, Koaly, and Stazie), who cracked the clues, avoided the rabbit holes, and hiked to the exact right rock—while the rest of us were still arguing about fonts in Clue 2.We also talk about what this year’s hunt did right (charity prize, solid clues, actual feasting metaphors), what we hope Bank of Utah does next year (don’t give up on us), and what it felt like to lose to people way nicer and more competent than us.Please excuse the occasional weird edit—we had technical issues, including a lost original recording. The interview you hear is technically Take Two, but still full of heart, screaming, and a cave wallet.#utah #treasure #treasurehunts #bankofutah #podcast

We cover:

• Whether stones are literal rocks

• What “lion-hearted” really points to

• If there’s a throwaway line in the poem

• How close someone actually is to the treasure

• Their favorite (and most misunderstood) lines

• And more exclusive hints

This is the episode where things start to unravel. If you’re hunting, you don’t want to miss it.

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the first six lines of the 2025 Utah Treasure Hunt poem. We break down each line, look for patterns, and explore possible interpretations based on how John and Dave have crafted their clues in years past. Drawing on their previous solves, we attempt to get inside their heads and understand how they might be thinking this time around.

Also, just a heads up, this was our first attempt at filming a video podcast, and well… we hit a few snags with the audio. It’s not perfect, but we’re learning as we go. Thanks for your patience and sticking with us!

The story of Julia Thomas begins where the life of the Dutchman himself ends.

When Jacob Waltz died, he supposedly trusted the general location of the gold mine to Julia Thomas, who then spent years searching for the mine and stumbled onto some pretty promising leads.

Ultimately though, Julia would end up joining some weird religion and selling maps to the lost gold mine that she never located.

Whatever your opinion of the veracity of the Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine itself, you have to wonder why someone would leave behind a secure source of income and dedicate all of that time and money to finding a treasure... if they weren't entirely sure of its reality.

In this special video episode we interview this year's winner, Damon Johnson. We offer our parting thoughts on this year's hunt and share our latest parody song, "One Trail More". Thanks for another awesome year!

In this episode we attempt to do an extremely steep hike to our latest solve while recording a podcast episode. It goes about as well as you might expect.

Yes, we know. Christian's audio is terrible in this episode. We need better equipment. In this episode Christian shares that solve that broke him as a treasure hunter. We discuss our recent negative reviews and resolve to be better. Chad and Christian mend broken fences. Caden continues to be his good natured self. You know, more of the usual.

In this episode we discuss the most recent hints, including the head-scratching poker video. There is at least 10 solid minutes where we discuss the merits of bathing. So if your love treasure hunts and taking baths, this is literally the most applicable podcast you could possibly listen to.

In this episode we discuss a solve centered on Mount Timpanogos that broke our hearts. We gossip about Discord and Reddit drama and review listeners biggest coincidences they have encountered so far.

It's gold. Just listen to it.

We are not going to lie, there isn't a ton of substance here. We kick around our best (partial) solves so far. We share the results of the survey. We finalize our bets and our punishments if we are wrong. Chad gargles some jelly beans. Things get weird. Friday can't come soon enough...

In this episode we discuss and dissect the remainder of the poem. Caden Photon and Brad Zollinger make some really good contributions. We take questions from our listeners and do a below average job at answering them.

Also, if you are curious, this episode will be released tomorrow.

En este episodio iniciamos la búsqueda del tesoro del poema de este año discutiendo y analizando las primeras 4 líneas del poema. Tomamos preguntas enviadas por los oyentes y tratamos de descubrir por qué el poema está escrito en español. John, lamentamos mucho la broma que hacemos a tu costa.

In this episode, learn all about Jacob Waltz, the maybe murderer, for sure German man who supposedly found a gold mine in the Superstition Mountains.

We also introduce a new "Mystery of the Week" segment, please let us know what you think.

We're back with another season of Lost Treasures. This time, we're looking at the Legend of the Lost Dutchman Gold Mine.

Find out what those quirky Conquistadorks were up to in Arizona and what supposedly happened to 400 people in the Peralta Massacre.

Alex brings his A game, while Christian and Chad sit back and let him do all the work. We back baby!

In this season finale, Alex sums up the whole damn Montezuma story. Christian apologizes for a broad range of wrongdoings, the most recent of which is the spread of misinformation about a weird religious group in Utah. He also manages to say a joke so bad, we were forced to bleep for the first time. Thanks to listening to our first ever story in the Lost Treasure series. Stay tuned for more!
