Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Matteris. And before I get started with the episode today, I'd just like to take care of the usual housekeeping.

First of all, if you've been wanting to hear a particular disaster on the podcast, you can do so for a $25 or more donation to the podcast's PayPal account at disaster area at mail.com.

Just add the disaster you'd like to hear about to the notes of your donation,

and I'll add it to the list. Normally when it comes to requests, I do them when and if I can,

but this will mean I will definitely cover the topic you request as soon as I can finish all

of the research for it and sit down and get it written, which if it's a big disaster,

please keep in mind, it may take me a little while, like with this one. The subject from this particular episode and this

particular series was requested by Kelly, and I'd like to thank her once again for the request

and for the donation and for the infinite patience. Now, if you'd like to help support the podcast in another way,

you can do so with a one-time donation through PayPal at Disaster Area at Mail.com

or on a per-episode basis through Patreon at www.com slash disaster area podcast.

A per-episode donation of even as little as a dollar an episode can help

me do things like keep the lights on and buy snacks to eat while I'm sitting and writing scripts

and pay for me to go to the movies so I can have a little bit of a break so I don't have to

think about people dying in horrible

ways while they are just going to work, just for a little while. So if you do become a patron,

I would very much appreciate it. Also, this month, when I finish recording each episode,

they will be scheduled to come out throughout the month, for everybody

else, but for the people who are supporting my Patreon, they will be getting them as soon as I

record them. So this particular episode is being recorded on the fifth into the sixth, late

in the night. So I'm not distracted by any noises outside or anything like that so

um everybody who's on patreon is going to be getting it tonight everybody who is uh in the normal
