It's Amber's week this week and today's episode is a sweet mess. We are talking about the Great Molasses Flood that took place in Boston, Massachusetts.

In today’s episode, we have a collection of different Gender Reveal Parties and their unfortunate mishaps. We recorded this episode earlier in September, and since our recording, there has been a tragic update to the case. Firefighter Charles Edward Morton has unfortunately passed away.

This episode we go back to 1942. On a cold Saturday night in Downtown Boston. The whole town was out and about and for many of the fun-loving Bostonians they decided to go to the biggest nightclub in town, the Cocoanut Grove. Unfortunately, due to greed and improper planning many of the participants will perish along with the nightclub itself.

The gals go on a road trip to the real life ghost town of Centralia, Pennsylvania. Where a fire broke out in 1962 that is still burning TO THIS DAY!

In today's episode, the gals take you deep into the radioactive desert of New Mexico. Where a once urban legend became true! Join us on the treasure hunt that is the Atari Video Game Burial where a few million copies of a particularly hated video game are discovered!

In today's episode, the gals go back to 1959 Soviet Union, up to the Ural mountains, and explore the mysterious deaths of nine skiers. Was is the Yeti? Or Aliens? Or a government cover-up? Or just a freak accident? Click play on today's episode to learn more about the Dyatlov Pass Incident.

In this week’s DISASTROUS episode the gals talk about the eruption of Pompeii and the many ways you can die from a volcanic eruption. Woo!
