Strange Truths & Tall Tales celebrates the storytelling tradition of Newfoundland, Canada. From true-life feats of bravery to eerie tales of sea monsters and the folklore of mummers, we explore the stories that make this place what it is. Along the way we talk to modern storytellers, artists, and contributors from the world of pop culture to hear their perspectives and the tales that matter to them.

The show is hosted by Robert, a longtime blogger from Gander, NL, who writes about Newfoundland’s culture. He records the podcast from home, with occasional “input” from his two Labrador retrievers, who keep him grounded (well, more often, distracted).

Whether you’re a Newfoundlander yourself or simply curious about the stories of this remarkable place, we invite you to join us. Together, we’ll unravel “the yarns that knit ya” and discover what makes Newfoundland’s tales so powerful, so moving, and so unforgettable.
