On 14 October 1913, at 8:00 am, a catastrophic gas and coal‑dust explosion ripped through the Universal Colliery in Senghenydd, South Wales. Almost 950 miners were underground—a single spark triggered Britain's worst mining disaster, killing 439 men and boys, and even took the life of one rescuer 

This podcast revisits that fateful day with powerful storytelling: tracing the lives behind the numbers, exploring the systemic failures ignored by management, and uncovering the legacy of grief, resilience, and remembrance within a tight‑knit community 

Join us as we piece together the human stories that lie amid the wreckage. From the tragedy of 1901 to the aftermath of 1913, we’ll examine how the voices of those lost still echo through time—and why their stories urgently need to be heard.
