The Disappearance of Jane Smith (Sudbury, Ontario - August 9, 1975)

/

On August 9, 1975, 20-year-old Jane Smith vanished from her Sudbury apartment without a trace. Fifty years later, her family is still living with the pain of not knowing what happened.

In this episode, I speak with two people at the center of this decades-old mystery: Jane’s younger brother, John Smith, and his daughter, Katie.

John shares what it was like to lose his sister and how her disappearance has shaped his family’s lives over the past half-century.

Katie, who never met her aunt, has taken on a different role — part investigator, part advocate — working to keep Jane’s story alive and urging anyone who knows the truth to come forward before it’s too late.

Romana Didulo - 7 - The Arrest, Release, and Re-Arrest

/

In this episode we catch up with the strange saga of Romana Didulo, the self-proclaimed “Queen of Canada.”

In previous episodes, we’ve traced her bizarre rise from a Victoria, BC boarding house to her group’s nearly two year long occupation of an abandoned school in the tiny community of Richmound, Saskatchewan.

Despite countless efforts to remove them, form the village of just over 100 residents nothing worked—until now.

This past week brought a game-changing turn: not only was the group forced out of the school, but Romana Didulo and the building’s owner both found themselves behind bars.

To unpack these developments, Tom from OwlNews.ca will join us as we discuss the arrest, release, and rearrest of “Queen” Romana Didulo.

Production Update - The End of Nighttime, Welcome to Canadian Gothic

/

Ten years ago today the first episode of Nighttime was released, telling the story of a UFO sighting over Cape Breton Island.

In the decade since, Nighttime has produced over a thousand episodes, covered stories from nearly every corner of the country, been heard around the world, but… it’s also begun to show it’s age.

As Nighttime toiled away podcasting has changed dramatically; the rise of celebrity-hosted shows, podcasts as video, the rise and fall of countless platforms, and many other factors which have reshaped the medium and led to Nighttime feeling like the product of a by-gone era.

Ten years after it started, It’s time to say good night to Nighttime!

but this isn’t a goodbye

Its hosts, its contributors, its active series (like Keep Canada Weird) aren’t going anywhere.

The podcast feeds, the social media pages, and related landing pads will be updated to serve as home for a new show that will be similar in style and spirit, but better equipped to tell Canada’s most fascinating stories for the next decade and beyond.

the next chapter is… the Canadian Gothic
