The Empire State Building Disaster of 1945 | Episode 59
Update: 2023-10-101
Description
By popular demand, we are staying in the Depression Era and doubling down on the disaster. We’ve done blended and mixed disasters before, but welcome to our very first two-fer plane and elevator episode.
On today’s episode: you’ll hear about the highest stakes game of keep-away ever, the worst kind of airline fuel to use as shampoo, and you’ll hear about a woman who broke a table in half with her face before setting a world record for not dying. And speaking of tid bits and tangents, I’d like to point out that if you were listening to this episode as a Patreon member, not only would you have heard it sooner and add-free, but this episode would be almost 10 MINUTES longer as we looked into the most unusual “self-guided tours” off the Empire State Building, how easy it was to score free smack in 1945, the legend of Killdozer, and a conspiracy-free take on how cheap real estate contributed to 9/11
By the end of this episode, you won’t believe how many people have flown into NYC - literally. The B-25 crash was so intense and bizarre, it actually pushed actual World War II off the front pages of newspapers – for about a minute. But, as does happen throughout history, it was all but immediately purged from the public memory by the bombing of Hiroshima just a week later

I want to thank my Patreon listeners. I appreciate you,, and I thank you for your support. And if you are a regular listener, consider becoming a supporter. It would really help fulfill my dream of doing this full time. If you and a few thousand of your friends could spare a buck or two, you would really help keep the show alive.
I think getting episodes a little early with no sponsor interruptions and with additional, ridiculously interesting material in each new episode is worth it. If you agree, you can find out more at patreon.com/funeralkazoo
