from Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast · host Brad Choma
People have asked, of all the disasters in history, if I could travel back in time to witness any disaster, which would I choose. I’ve never been able to answer the question – until this episode On this episode: there will be no death. There will be no dismemberment. And the only blood will be coming out of people’s ears. This is a one of a kind minisode celebrating the greatest display of patriotic fury of all time!I never overly cared about firework shows, but this wasn’t some simple firework show – this was a once in a lifetime spectacle that you experience with every sense you have. Happy birthday America! And the Phillipines of course. Celebrity guests include 16th Century rocket chair pioneer Wan Hu, local TV regular H.P. “Sandy” Purdon, and time-travelling guitarist Marty McFly.––––– THANK YOU.
