Look at you !!!!!! Taking good care of your Patreons with a nice 56.07min treat. You're a good man ACC :)

Mallory Derringer

Native North Carolinian here. I’d never heard of this tragedy. Thank you so much for educating me on this!

Stephanie Johnson

I was worried this was a food contamination episode, wasn’t ready for that.

So often when corporate types talk about "cutting red tape" what they mean is getting rid of safety measures that prevent people from burning to death or getting crushed in the panic, whether in poultry plants or nightclubs. Union forever.

Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. That's an oldie but goodie. Thanks for delvling into it, ACC.

Alan

Incredible episode. I had egg-spectations about where this was headed and it was absolutely worse. I was musing to myself "are they thinking that people are going to steal, what, rancid chicken?" and sure enough, there was the age-old corporate bullshit of "yep". Continual traumatization on top of it as well. This episode had everything (yes, even the chicken puns).

Michelle Hebert

I sooo love ACC's account of this tragedy! He recounts with such detail and depth the torture people experienced that you feel you were there! ACC is one of the very few communicators who understands empathy he and knows how to communicate it.

This is what happens when the party of "We don't need no stinking regulations and let rich people be as greedy as they wanna be" is allowed free reign.

I can't be bothered to check how to activate my subscription in the podcast app I use - and I highly recommend that, the adds are way too cool to miss them

Really appreciated how you put us into the headspace of someone who worked there. Amazing job. Balloon Boy was really fun, so I felt we had a rough one coming up.

So I was listening to this episode on apple podcast and I just wanted to let you know a random add popped into the middle of the playlist that was for gambling for draftkings. I don’t know if you have control the adds that pop on to Apple Podcasts but I wanted to let you know. It was really jarring for me to hear that advertisement.

I was hoping I'd hear something about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire at some point during these episodes. I know it's an old one, but it made a great lead-in for this story.

One of the best yet told. Thank you

Yolanda

I have to listen to this again before commenting!

Yolanda

Excellent reporting…great story! 💜🍉

I know you don’t read this comments?!?

He died in 2018. Was there a line waiting to piss on his grave?

Allie

I fucking wept when I listened to this episode. It was powerful.

Nae

I know this man didn’t just say “shooting dice” 😭😭
