the Murder of Alexandra Wiwcharuk - 2 - a discussion with author Sharon Butula

Saskatoon, SK - May 1962 In 1962, 23-year-old Alexandra Wiwcharuk—a vibrant nurse, beauty queen, and beloved daughter—went for a walk along the South Saskatchewan River in Saskatoon and never came home. Her body was discovered weeks later, buried in a shallow grave not far from her home. She had been brutally assaulted and buried alive. In this episode of Nighttime, we revisit Alexandra Wiwcharuk’s haunting case with acclaimed author Sharon Butala, whose book The Girl in Saskatoon explores Alexandra’s life, her death, and the deep scars left in its wake. Butala, as a former classmate of Alexandra, brings a unique and intimate lens to this decades-old mystery. Together, we explore the investigation, the cultural context of 1960s Saskatoon, and the lingering questions that continue to haunt those touched by the case. This is more than a story of a crime—it’s a story of memory, silence, and a community still searching for justice.

Edwin Fuhr and the 1974 Langenburg, Saskatchewan UFO Event

Langenburg, SK - Sept 1974  Saskatchewan farmer named Edwin Fuhr claimed to have witnessed something extraordinary—five metallic, saucer-shaped objects hovering over his field. As he watched in stunned silence, the objects spun rapidly, emitted a grey vapor, and then shot off into the sky without making a sound. What remained were five mysterious circular imprints in the grass—physical evidence that even an RCMP investigation couldn’t explain. Nearly 50 years later, the Langenburg UFO incident remains one of Canada’s most compelling unexplained encounters. What did Fuhr really see that September morning? In this episode we are joined by Canadian UFO researcher and writer Chris Rutkowski to explore the sighting, the investigation, and the broader implications on UFO history.

What the hell are you talking about "good weird" and "bad weird"? Are you saying people who like Joe Rogan are "bad weird"? Jesus, I hope that's not what you meant. I loved this show. And big surprise, I'm a fan of Joe Rogan. Don't make me choose. Don't be "bad weird" dude. Oh wait, you're Canadian. 😔
