  Hi there. Today I want to tell you about a gripping new true crime podcast series that was recently launched by some friends of ours. It's called The Lost Boys of Wineville, produced by the creators of the award-winning UK true crime podcast They Walk Among Us. That's one of the shows that inspired me to create Canadian true crime, so if you haven't checked it out yet, you should. The Lost Boys of Wineville is a compelling series unraveling a chilling story that unfolded nearly a century ago in the shadow of the recently erected Hollywoodland sign. It's a story that reached its harrowing conclusion on a remote poultry ranch in Saskatchewan.

But it wasn't just his deeds that horrified the world. In the midst of his reign of terror, several young boys vanished, seemingly without a trace. The search for one of the children sent his mother down a rabbit hole of corruption, deception, and despair.
