What’s the worst thing you ever saw at a sports game? Someone throw a battery at a Make-a-Wish kid? Sure, if you’re from Philly, but what if you were from California.
On today’s episode: we’ll talk about zombies and crucifictions and collapsing buildings before we even get into it; we’re going to watch the shortest baseball game of all time; and we’re going to cut off one of your limbs in one of the more claustrophobic ways possible.
And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear of one of the most extreme, but very different kind of arm-severing examples of self-rescue in history; the story of a must-have, closed-casket-funeral-friendly rescue device and the absolutely brutal, very public early use of it; and a really dirty, smutty explanation how earthquakes work.
By popular request, we present The Loma Prieta Earthquake Disaster of 1989! So, we’ll end up talking about my history with zombies and a popular crucifixion and a slowly collapsing building - two of three events set in San Francisco itself – all before we settle in to watch the shortest baseball game of all time.
Not just that, we're actually going to (for the first time ever) interrupt a safety segment with a Patreon-exclusive retelling of the shockingly horrific and awful just-kill-me-now-already story of Aron Ralston. You might remember him as the guy who chewed his arm off after an 800 pound boulder pinned him to a canyon wall in Utah. He didn't actually chew his arm off though. What he did was at least a thousand times worse.
We'll also do a little retelling of the great 1906 San Francisco Earthquake. Can't not do a San Francisco Earthquake disaster without at least bringing it up.
Celebrity guest appearances include world famous author and travel enthusiast, Bill Bryson; crucified magician and Jesus’ friend, Saint Andrew; real estate suckers Joe Montana and Kevin Durant; all four Beatles; sports broadcasters, Al Michaels and Tim McCarver; newscaster, Ted Koppel; crosstown World Series players Dave Stewart, Mike Moore, Jose Canseco, Dave Parker and Terry Kennedy.
