The Great Salt Lake does not have any whales. We want to be clear about that. We DO take a departure here and talk about whales for a surprisingly long time, but please understand that we realize that there are no whales in the Great Salt Lake. Allegedly.

This is the story of the Great Saltair. Come for the ghosts, stay for a race to the spike, D-coin, I’ll keep adding wives until I love myself, I’m eating nine ice creams, normies love salt, they’re a minor whale, Coney Island with half the condoms, and EDM with Mormons.
