Summary
“Tenerife is an example of the 'Swiss Cheese' Model: dozens of individual events, each of them incredibly unlikely in their own right, aligning against all odds to create the final outcome.”
This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:09 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).

Do Go On acknowledges the traditional owners of the land we record on, the Wurundjeri people, in the Kulin nation. We pay our respects to elders, past and present.
