Streeter Shenanigans! The OG Seasteader

Mona Aburmishan and I discuss Chicago's most colorful character. Was he OG militia, a conman or both?

Enjoy this series.

Digressions include:

Seasteading

The Bundy family standoffs.

SHOW NOTES:

In my research, I found many conflicting reports. In some articles people said Streeter had two wives other's said four. Some claimed he was a Civil War veteran other a deserter. As addressed in this episode everything considered to be true about Streeter is incorrect.

Then I found what I consider to be the best researched book.
