Tristan Meyer Odell is a typical Canadian teenager with an unusual hobby: he's into taxidermy.
And even though stuffing dead animals isn't perhaps the pastime you'd choose for your offspring, his parents are totally on board!
Rachel Matlow of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation presents 'The Teenage Taxidermist' a story that originally aired on CBC's Sunday Edition.
And that was discovered that thanks to the Third Coast International Audio Festival's weekly podcast, Re: Sound.
The Festival starts next week in Chicago: it's basically a fortnight-long celebration of audio storytelling with live podcast events, speakers and prizes, and we'll be playing a few of the winners on next week's show.
