Wednesday Jul 28, 2021
Wednesday Jul 28, 2021
In the final episode of this "season", we revisit disaster on the open ocean. Inclement weather, over three hundred yachts, the history of boats, and just so many reasons to never set foot in the ocean.

Episode 50.5: [Tragedy Tuesday] The Byford Dolphin Incident
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Just because something happens quickly, doesn't mean it can't be horrific. The most dangerous job in the world meets fatigue, to catastrophic ends. Deep sea diving, rapid decompression, human error, and too-late regulations.

Episode 50: Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy
Wednesday Jun 23, 2021
Wednesday Jun 23, 2021
You thought overwrought endeavours were limited to videogames? Where do you go now... that you've written Sweet Child O' Mine and November Rain? Axel Rose, Buckethead, midnight pyrotechnics, and chicken coop pronography.
That video about how The Rock is totally a James Bond movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FdnevXjqdc

Episode 49.5: [Tragedy Tuesday] 1904 Olympic Marathon
Tuesday Jun 08, 2021
Tuesday Jun 08, 2021
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or at least maybe finish a marathon. Things could have gone a whole lot better for the rag-tag band of competitors at the St. Louis Olympics. Dusty roads, ancient wars, rotten apples, and rat poison...

Wednesday Jun 02, 2021
Our special guest Try-All Andy returns for the story of the trials and tribulations that went into producing a sequel that was over a decade in the making. Aliens, misogyny, pop-culture references, and a world record... hail to the king?

Episode 48.5: [Tragedy Tuesday] Death in Space
Tuesday May 25, 2021
Tuesday May 25, 2021
As harsh a place as space can be, there have been surprisingly few deaths in space. Not to worry! Leigh found some for us. Soviet cosmonauts, Soyuz 11, and a pesky valve...

Wednesday May 19, 2021
Wednesday May 19, 2021
Craig from Canadian History Ehx returns to once again rob us of sleep. What's the most damage mother nature could possibly do in one hour? Edmonton, Alberta found out in 1987. Tornadoes, the Fujita scale, Canadian devastation, and... you better believe it... a trailer park.

Tuesday May 11, 2021
Tuesday May 11, 2021
Not all disasters happen on a global scale. Leigh tells the story of his experience on jury duty, with its highest highs and lowest lows. Criminal fraud, heated debates, comped meals... and comped... meals...
