Easter Island, also known as Rapa Nui by the locals, is a far flung island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. But while it's very far away and very small, it actually has a fascinating geography and history attached to it. In this episode, Hunter and Geoff dive into how Easter Island was settled in the first place, how it was colonized, and why Chile owns it today.
