106 Marriotts and Melvins: Nova Scotia's Drug Fueled Version of the Hatfields and McCoys

Today, we’re continuing the Canada Binge with a crazy story from Nova Scotia. We extended the Canada Binge by one more week before we get to Willie Pickton. This week, we’re covering the Marriotts and Melvins feud. Its Canada’s modern day drug fueled version of the Hatfields and McCoys. The 2 families were both drug dealers, and they didn’t like each other. That’s basically it, although the story is crazy, and its directly tied to the Quebec Biker War. It ends with most of the key players either dead or in prison. These families have been compared to the real life Trailer Park Boys, which is actually filmed in Nova Scotia.

Joining us on this episode is Morgan Rector of Human Monsters. He was a great guest, and he provided insight on some of the geography of the story. So, join us, and get ready because next week, we’ll be doing Willie Pickton part 1...If I don’t find another crazy Canadian story.
