  • Episode 17: Someone Knows Something's David Ridgen

    On Episode 17 I land a guest that I've wanted to have on since the inception of The WB Show.


    The host and man behind CBC Radio's Someone Knows Something, David Ridgen stops by to discuss a ton about his career and the hit CBC podcast.

    Ridgen starts by speaking about his upbringing and what got him into True Crime in the first place. We then move into Someone Knows Something and discuss both the first and very little bit of the second season. How could I let him go without nerding out over the podcasting and recording equipment he uses?
