"20/20 Hindsight" should be the slogan of whomever runs against Trump (or Pence) (or Ryan) in the next election!

First lines of the Sandburg poem The Eastland "Let's be honest now For a couple of minutes Even though we're in Chicago." It's an angry poem about the media over dramatizing the big disaster and ignoring much more horrifying daily reality. A hundred years later, nothing has changed. Thanks for this episode. It made me laugh.

Ahhhh... the warm fuzzy nostalgia of a time before regulations. This is why deregulation is such a good GOP idea. We all know corporations and businesses will do the right thing on their own. Amirite????🤑

What happened to the clown? Did he just slink away? Never trust a grown man in face paint.

Yes - look at Houston, apparently there are no zoning laws. A chemical plant explodes som years ago inthe middle of residential buildings in Texas, and as a result the state has stoppe the requirement of chemical plants to list what chemicals they are storing to the public. In large swaths of Texas the underfundes fire departments have to deal with the fact the it is ILLEGAL to implement a fire code, even in chemical plants! <a href="http://bit.ly/2x3k6Bl" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/2x3k6Bl</a> - Boy, I hope the Texans enjoy the free enterprise!

I'm sure it says something about me as a person that my favorite episodes are the ones discussing gross incompetence resulting in catastrophe. It probably says more about you guys that you're funniest when discussing idiocy that results in horrifying death and dismemberment though. 😏
