サマリー
あらすじ・解説
This week, we're discussing the Texas City Industrial Accident. This disaster is considered the worst industrial accident in United States history. With over 600 dead, 5,000 injured, and over $1 billion dollars in property damage, justice wouldn't come soon enough. I want to thank you all for listening this season, new episodes will air in early May 2024.
