Here's another show we know you'll love. Every winter, in the nice little Canadian town of Beavermount, Ontario, an old scrap VW Beetle is towed out onto the frozen ice of Beavermount Lake, and every resident enters a sweepstakes to guess the exact date and time the bug will fall through the ice. Last night, a torrential rainstorm flooded the ice, and at 4.23 a.m., the VW fell through.
and sank to the bottom. But when Lorna Batson saw an adult-sized mitten floating on the surface, the car was winched out of the lake to find Greg Sullivan fall out of the driver's seat, dead. Tattoo Productions presents Sorry About the Murder, Season 3, Dead Ice. Will Frenchy solve the murder and clear his Quebecois name? More importantly, what will he name his new pet house hippo? Coming this Canada Day, wherever you get your podcasts. In the meantime, binge Seasons 1 and 2 to get good and primed.
In the big rock county mountain, you never clean your socks. And the little streams of alcohol come trickling down the rocks. Hello? Hello, coffee? Oh, hello. No, thank you. Ooh, right. Already started the day with burdock root tea or something? I actually did. How did you know? Oh, I didn't. I was joking.
What happens in Beavermount, Ontario during winter?
Well, it flushes out the toxins. Whatever. You're in a good mood. I am. I have found the key to happiness. Oh, have you? Oh, please share. All week long, throughout the day, I have been doing this. Hey, Elden. Elden. Nothing. It's been amazing. Well, I can do that all the time. Is that why I'm so happy? Maybe. Do you want to borrow my rotary phone? No, I think I'll go one step further. I am going to get one of those hand-cranked ones. I'll have to stand at the wall to use it. Oh, maybe just a telegraph. No, even further. A couple of tin cans. Some string? Yes. So... Do you want to hear the news from the town square or not? Not. Two more minutes. Okay. How are you doing?
I'm okay. The mountain is okay. Natural systems are... Always more resilient than we think they are. I was feeling pretty sick for a couple of days. Well, luckily, you had some burdock tea. Yes, Frank. Luckily. I was worried about you for a second. I know. I'll be okay. We need to watch the third movie. What's it called? Return of the Jedi. Right. But maybe not the most important thing right now. I don't know. That guy is frozen in that thing, and he's just going to stay frozen until I watch the next movie. Good point. Spoiler alert. He'll be fine.
What is Sorry About the Murder, Season 3 about?
Okay. But as soon as all of this is over, we're getting back to it. Okay. Okay. Speaking of which... Okay, fine. What's the news? Refugees. Refugees? Everyone in the big city is worried that something bad is coming. Well, that is almost certainly true. And some of them think they might be safer here in town. And that is almost certainly not true. Regardless, we've got a bunch of abandoned houses up here from when people initially fled town... And people are trying to move in. Really? Yes. How many people? I don't know. Okay. Well, I hope Steve has a plan. You hope Steve has a plan? I do. I do. He is the man with the plan. I'm sorry. Do you hear the words that are coming out of your mouth? I'm serious. You can't be. Wait, why?
Hey, it was Steve's plan that got us this far. I'm sure he'll have another plan up his sleeve. Whoa, that is not the reaction. That is not the reaction I was expecting. Well, I can be full of surprises, Trinket. Wait, why do I have to be the dependable one? Because it's freaking me out. Well, look, here's what's going to happen. Steve is going to walk around like he's the mayor, right? Or sorry, deputy mayor. And he's going to start solving problems left and right. He is Mr. Solutions, that guy. I think this is going to take a little more organization than Steve is capable of.
