The Missing and Unexplained Podcast

Hello listeners of The Missing and Unexplained Podcast! I have a new podcast titled "True to the Story". Don't worry! The Missing and Unexplained Podcast is not going anywhere. In fact, I am currently doing research for season 3 which I am hoping to release later this year. True to the Story is just another vehicle for me to tell stories not entirely linked to missing persons or crime. You can subscribe to True to the Story where you get your podcasts, including iTunes. 

True to the Story is a new podcast dedicated to long-form storytelling, with each season telling a true narrative. In this first series I look at the war in Afghanistan and the interpreters who served alongside the Canadian Armed Forces. 

From 2001-2014, over the course of 14 years, more than 40, 000 Canadian soldiers participated in the longest war in Canadian history. Now in 2021 many of these Canadian Afghan war vets are fighting a different fight: Their fighting to get these same interpreters who helped them in Afghanistan to safety in Canada. This is the story of these interpreters, the crucial role they played in helping the Canadian Armed Forces, and their ultimate journey to try and seek shelter in Canada...

Episode 1 will be coming in the following weeks. You can check the social media pages below for regular updates:

In this final episode I look at another disappearance on the PCT, and I discuss some possible sightings of Kris and the theories surrounding his disappearance.

I want to thank everyone who took part in this series and helped bring Kris' story to life. I want to especially thank Sally for taking so much time to talk to me and being open to this series. I hope we bring Kris home soon.

With the storm of the decade headed towards the Pacific Northwest and Washington State, Kris and other hikers hesitated on whether to continue hiking the PCT. Ultimately, Kris was determined to hike Washington state in its entirety. After re-supplying in Packwood, on October 12, 2016, Kris started out on the trail near the White Pass trailhead and seemingly vanished into the woods. 

Thank you to Pickles, Sally, David, and Aaron who chatted with me for this episode.

In this first episode I explore Kris' life prior to deciding to hike the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). I chat with his stepmother, Sally, about Kris' childhood, and chat with Jeff, one of Kris' best friends, about his time in school and university. Ultimately, a major shift in Kris' life prompts him to start planning to hike the PCT with his friend Colin.

On Mother’s Day, May 8, 2016, 34-year-old Kris Fowler set out the Pacific Crest Trail, a 2,653 mile hike stretching from Mexico to Canada, all through the west coast of the United States. But on October 12, with less than 400 miles to go on the trail, Kris, who had stopped in Packwood Washington for supplies, set off to resume the PCT near White Pass in the Cascade mountain range. Kris was hoping to get ahead of a brewing storm, one that people would later claim was the biggest Washington State had experienced in decades.  As other hikers left the trail to wait out the inclement weather, Kris, in his sandals, set off into the dense Washington wilderness and seemingly vanished into the thick wilderness of the Pacific Northwest.

Today I have a dynamic duo on the show! They are Caitlin and Graeme, the hosts of the True North True Crime Podcast. True North True crime is a podcast that brings awareness to missing persons and victims of violent crimes in Canada. I have to say I was a huge from TNTC before this interview and after getting to know these two wonderful hosts I am a super fan. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Caitlin and Graeme.

SEASON 2 Trailer on the disappearance of Kris "Sherpa" Fowler coming SOON!

Today I have Marissa Jones on the show who is the host of The Vanished Podcast. The Vanished is not only one of my favourite podcasts, but was one of the inspirations in starting the Missing and Unexplained Podcast. In my opinion, it is the best podcast out there that focuses on missing persons. It was my pleasure to chat with Marissa, enjoy our conversation.

Today I have Jon Walczak on the show who is an investigative journalist and hose of the Missing in Alaska Podcast. Missing in Alaska is about two congressman who go missing from a small plane over Alaska in 1972. I don’t want to say much more than that because the story that unravels is wild. I highly encourage you to check it out and I hope you enjoy my conversation with Jon.
