Hot Frosty is a 2024 festive hit and Yellowknife’s Dustin Milligan, the desirable ice sculpture-turned-man in question, is basking in its glory.

Milligan joined Cabin Radio’s Clams ‘n’ Moose – aka Camilla MacEachern and Sarah Erasmus – from Los Angeles this week to discuss the movie, his connection to Yellowknife and what’s next.
