Rape of Berlin
During the Spring of 1945, 2 million women and girls were raped and murdered in a war they took no part in. In this episode, we will focus on the Battle of Berlin and the atrocities committed therein by the Soviet Union. These themes are relevant now more than ever as Russia continues to ignore international law in the Ukraine War.
To this day, a substantial amount of guilt remains in Germany for what their ancestors did during first half of the 20th century. But what of the innocent women and children back then? Why should they have paid for the sins of male aggression?
Listener discretion advised.

A story of will power, treachery, loyalty, hope, and dispair; this gripping lost-in-a-lifeboat tale will teach it's survivors that ocean predators are the least of their fears.
Not everyone will get out allive.

A Mind-blowing Mistake: Lake Peigneur Disaster
In 1980, a small, quiet lake in Louisiana experienced the strangest spectacle in US natural history. The lake seemed to turn evil: capsizing tugboats, ripping parking lots from the shoreline, pulling 11 oil barges beneath the surface, shooting a 400 foot geyser into the sky, erecting a giant waterfall where the canal once stood. To a local fisherman who witnessed it, it seemed like "the end of the world."
Tune in to find out what happened, what caused it, and who was to blame.
