About this episode

You’ve heard the stories. You’ve felt for the people involved. But what happens after the cameras shut off and the reporters walk away?

And did anything actually come out of the Ice Bucket Challenge?

Join Global News reporter, Erica Vella on this unique history podcast as she takes you inside these stories and talks to the people at the heart of each one to find out exactly what’s happened since.
