Nighttime

In the early morning hours of November 25, 2012, 3rd year Mount Allison student Chris Metallic ended a night of partying with friends.  A belly full of alcohol played a part in his decision to leave the party, and certainly played a part in him leaving his shoes and wallet behind… that was going to be a problem to solve the next morning. Wearing borrowed sandals Chris just wanted to go home and sleep it off.  Over 10 years later.. Chris still hasn't arrived home and the trail he left behind doesn't offer much to go on. In this episode of Nighttime, I’m joined by Canadian Crime video creator Madelayne Klein to discuss the disapperance of Chris Metallic.  Episode Links: Chris Metallic Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/BringChrisMetallicHome Madelayne’s Chris Metallic video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzdSjqUUOnY Links: Missing in Canada Series: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com/keep-canada-weird Missing in Canada Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/missingincanada make a case suggest

At some point during the early morning of July 5, 2004, 5 year old Tamra Keepness seems to have simply vanished from her home. The facts of that evening, as well as the behaviours of the adults responsible for Tamra's care, are more than a bit hazy. Alcoholism, drug abuse, sex work, and domestic violence all find their way into Tamra's last known night and all obscure the trail she left behind. But if one thing is for certain, it's that Tamra’s family has far from given up on her. In this episode of Nighttime, I'll be joined by Canadian crime video creator Madelayne Klein to discuss the disappearance of Tamra Keepness.

In my opinion, Halloween is the most wonderful time of the year. For a few weeks in October, even your grandmothers favorite drug store is selling Skull shaped coffee mugs and blood splattered napkins. What's not to love about that? With the world temporarily embracing horror and darkness I decided to do the same here at Nighttime and fortunately, there are many spooky listeners of this show. It's to them I turn to tonight. So pour a drink, dim the lights, and get cozy. Tonight, in this Nighttime Halloween special, we are going to hear from a collection of Nighttime listeners who will share their encounters with THE BEYOND. Stories James’ encounter with a spirit at the Margaree River Kristin’s visit from a deceased innkeeper in Ontario Kristi Lee’s haunting in Brisbane Nick’s UFO sighting in PEI Lisa’s supernatural pet sighting Steven’s visit from god know’s what Keith's Old Lady/poltergeist Links Bonus Content - prior listener story collection - patreon.com/nighttimepodcast Listen to the ‘supernatu

What started with photos, showing a high school teacher wearing very large prosthetic breasts, going viral online quickly evolved into international news coverage and now, like seemingly every hot topic that affects society, has devolved into disorganized protesting and public gatherings. Trafalgar High School has become the venue for protestors who are against all sorts of things, the wood shop teacher’s form of gender expression included. Fortunately for interested Nighttime listeners, we have a friend who went there and documented it all. We first heard from Toronto based lawyer and guerilla journalist Caryma S'ad during our series covering Queen Romana's Siege of the Peterborough Police Station. She graciously agreed to join us again, this time to discuss the Oakville Trafalgar High School Protest and the very large breasts at the heart of it.

Would you believe me if I told you that a Canadian mental health hospital was conducting cruel experiments on patients, using LSD, rape, embarrassment and torture as recently as the 1980s? If you don't believe me, buckle up for this one as we are about to receive a guided tour through Ontario's controversial Oak Ridge Medical Asylum and the many unimaginable things that took place within it. One of the many lives altered by Oak Ridge's cruelty is Steve Smith, in fact, many of the secrets that have been revealed since the experiements ceased, are a result of his determination to expose the truth of what happened in those walls. Tonight, in this episode of Nighttime, we will be joined by Oak Ridge Survivor Steve Smith.

Dale Rancourt is a former children’s entertainer and registered sex offender who is known widely as the disgraced ‘Klutzy the Clown’, As you heard in my prior episode while researching Rancourt's life and crime I referenced a documentary film (Big Shoes) about him, produced several years before his arrest. As you may have expected, the film really didn't age well and not because of any creative of technical decisions Michael or Adrienne made but because it leaves out the topic that dominates any discussion about Dale Klutzy the Clown Rancourt.. the sexual offences against a child that occurred in the years after the films release. After watching the film I was interested to hear how the filmmakers have dealt with such a spoiled creation and that’s exactly what we will get into in this episode. In this episode of Nighttime we will be joined by Michael Fraiman and Adrian Lee and our topic is the disturbing story of Dale ' Klutzy ' Rancourt... and their documentary that really didn't age well.

For a period spanning a little more than a decade you would have been hard pressed to find a Cape Bretoner unfamiliar with Dale Rancourt and his character Klutzy the Clown. He was both a children and adult entertainer bouncing his way between birthday party's, old folks homes, and public events being a not an especially good performer. He certainly wasn't universally respected, but somehow he managed to find a place for Klutzy the clown in Cape Breton's entertainment economy, but it's all gone now. Dale 'Klutzy the clown' Rancourt broke a few of the most rules society places on those we allow near our children. Over the course of a multi part series, I'll be unpacking the disturbing story of the disgraced Dale ‘Klutzy the Clown’ Rancourt.

Andrew's story, and his sister Nicole's advocacy for him have been pulled into the headlines several times since her last appearance on Nighttime. Her families battle for accountability took a big step forward, as a lawsuit against the provincial government has been announced but also, the battle got ugly. An encounter at a dog park between Nicole, and Ian Rankin, the ex premier of Nova Scotia, became of interest to both the local news outlets and the RCMP. In this episode of nighttime, we will again be joined by Nicole Gnazdowsky to discuss the quest for accountability related to the death of her brother Andrew.
