Laura, Krysta and Dean get together to discuss the Great Molasses Disaster that pretty well flattened Boston's North End Neighborhood. First, though, Krysta drops some weird facts about molasses, which helps to put the episode in perspective. In January of 1919, a tank of molasses exploded unleashing a wave of molasses 25 feet tall that moved at 35 miles an hour. This led to the deaths of over 20 people and the injuring of 150 more. Join us for our discussion on this unique moment in history. And we have congratulatory messages from Kate from the IWB podcast and the ever jovial Mr. Dark! Join us as we prove sometimes history can be fun!
