120 - The Hindenburg Disaster


Listen Later

Oh the humanity! A new episode has landed (crashed). It's one of the most documented disasters of the 20th Century, but what really happened to The Hindenburg? What could possibly bring down the largest vessel that has ever flown? An acrobat, Nazis and a boy with the best name we have ever come across... this story has it all.
