It's one of those episodes where you think you know where your research is leading and then it takes a sharp right turn. Trace follows a trail from shoving boulders downhill to the 18th century sport of hoop rolling.
P.S. Trace mentions in the beginning of the episode a video she'd seen on Instagram of guys rolling a giant boulder. That vid has since been removed. In many cases, trundling is illegal--people can cause immense damage to natural spaces and also put lives at risk. This episode is fun, but please, do not rock trundle.
Show Notes:
There's some bad language in the Youtube Video--but this is trundling that you must see.
Skip forward to 27 seconds to see the rock go!
