I've got two friends who are interested in listening to WTYP, though they're a bit cautious about it since I told them it was a podcast hosted by leftists that does get political at times. Trying to think of the best episodes to highlight to them (the ones where they don't just fuck around for the first 30 minutes especially)? I feel like Grenfell Tower is pretty great. What others?
I'll add Piper Alpha and Sampoong Department Store.
Definitely Sampoong Department Store. That one's nice and short.
Sampoong Department Store is excellent. They do a really good job highlighting how fucking greedy the owner was to the point of killing all those people. I remember watching an engineering disasters show as a kid and saw it, and it never covered (🤔🤔🤔) just how profit-motivated this guy was.
