57. The Durkee Mansion, or the Kemper Center
Ah, Wisconsin. Home of cheese curds, water slides, and a whole lot of people who were left confused by Aaron Rodgers’ whole deal. We’ve done Wisconsin stories before, but we haven’t done them like this–we have a special guest host for this episode, Jennifer Swanson, lifelong Wisconsinite and, more importantly, big fan of all things Clayton and Disney.
This is the story of the Durkee Mansion. Come for the ghosts, stay for the snake people, mustard sauce, a Mario on every corner, ugh, Moms, and Patrick versus Sebastian the crab.
