Summary

It was the last night of the Route 91 Harvest Festival and people were eager to see country star Jason Aldean take the stage. Twenty-five minutes into his performance, he stepped up to the mike ... only to make a run for it off the stage. Soon, everyone else in the audience would be running for cover as well.

0:00.0	Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Matarise, and before I get started with the episode today, I'd just like to take care of the usual housekeeping.
0:07.3	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.
0:18.5	Just add the name of the disaster you'd like me to cover to the notes on the donation,
0:22.2	and I'll add it to the list. Just please bear with me. I'm absolutely terrible at responding to messages.
0:28.4	Normally when it comes to requests, I do them when and if I can, but this will mean I will
0:32.3	definitely cover the topic you request as soon as I can finish all the research for it and
0:37.1	write it up. So if you do send
0:40.6	me a bigger disaster, like say Chernobyl, that took me a very long time to do. So the bigger the
0:46.8	disaster, the longer it may take. And if it's a disaster that's either currently happening
0:51.1	or has happened relatively soon, I may put it off for just a little
0:57.5	bit longer, like this subject for this particular episode, which I've been wanting to do for quite a
1:03.6	long time now. So just bear with me. And if you have submitted a request and I haven't done it
1:09.9	yet and you're concerned that I
1:11.8	might have forgotten because it's been a little while, feel free to email me and just kind of,
1:16.4	you know, give me a little poke and just to make sure that it's still on my list. Now, if you'd like
1:22.3	to help support the podcast in another way, you can do so with a one-time donation through PayPal
1:26.8	at Disasterarea at Mail.com or on a per episode in another way, you can do so with a one-time donation through PayPal at disaster area
1:28.2	at mail.com or on a per-episode basis through Patreon at www.com slash disaster area
1:38.0	podcast. A per-episode donation of even as little as a dollar an episode can help me do things like keep the lights on
1:46.6	and buy planters cheeseballs that I can snack on while I do research and buy treats for the dog
1:54.2	so he will be fat and happy and fall asleep and hopefully stay asleep the entire time that I'm
1:59.2	recording this podcast. So if you're snoring in the
