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

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 at mail.com.

Just add the name of the disaster you'd like me to cover to the notes on the

donation and I will add it to the list. Just please bear with me. I tend to be very bad about

responding to messages and email. So if you do send me a request, I may not respond, but that's

okay. I am getting it and I am adding it to the list.

And if you have sent me a request before and you're concerned that I haven't covered it yet,

or then I might have forgotten about it, or it might have gotten lost in the shuffle,

feel free to kind of send me an email or a message on any of the social media platforms that the podcast is on.

And just kind of give me a poke and say, by the way, you do have this on your list, right?

I completely appreciate that sort of thing.

So if you want to do that, I am more than welcome to take that.

will mean I will definitely cover the topic that you request as soon as I can finish all of the

research for it and write it up. So can I have to bear with me depending on what kind of disaster

you're requesting? If you're requesting a bigger disaster that has a lot of information

involved, it may take me a little longer to write the script and disaster that has a lot of information involved.

It may take me a little longer to write the script and organize everything.

Just kind of think of how long it took me to write the Chernobyl episodes.

It's one of those things where there's a lot of source material to work from and

writing more than one script possibly may take me

a little longer than normal. The same goes in some ways for a smaller disaster. There may be
