| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Matarise. And before I get started with the episode today, I just like to take care of the usual housekeeping. |
| 0:07.1 | 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, PayPal, at disaster area at mail.com or the podcast, Venmo at Disaster Area Podcast. |
| 0:20.0 | Just add the name of the disaster you'd like me |
| 0:22.1 | to cover to the notes on your donation, and I will add it to the list. I would recommend that |
| 0:27.0 | you double-check the back catalog and look at the most recent updated list of requests that have |
| 0:33.3 | already been sent in just to make sure that the one that you're sending in hasn't already been |
| 0:37.3 | taken care of. Now, please bear with me. I am legitimately terrible about responding to messages, |
| 0:42.4 | but rest assured that I will add your request to my to-do pile. And if it's been a while since you |
| 0:47.1 | sent in your request, feel free to just shoot me an email or message for me to double check and just |
| 0:51.8 | make sure that I didn't let you slip through the cracks. |
| 0:57.9 | Now normally when I 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 write |
| 1:02.5 | it up. Please keep in mind that the bigger the disaster, the more sources I may need to whittle down. |
| 1:07.5 | The less well-known the disaster is, the more I may need to search for sources, |
| 1:17.0 | and the more recent or ongoing a disaster is, the more I may want to wait until it's over so that the complete story can be told and that all loose ends can be tied up. |
| 1:21.0 | The subject from this particular episode was requested by Mark, although I probably should |
| 1:25.1 | have done this particular subject earlier, and I'd like |
| 1:29.3 | to thank him for the request and for the donation. |
| 1:32.1 | Now, if you'd like to help support the podcast in another way, you can do so with a one-time |
| 1:36.0 | donation through PayPal at Disaster Area at Mail.com, our at the aforementioned Venmo account, |
| 1:42.8 | or on a per episode basis through Patreon at www. |
| 1:46.0 | www.patriot.com slash disaster area podcast. I'd probably recommend going to look at the Patreon |
| 1:53.0 | anyway, just to look at the tears. You may not want to donate, but you'll get a laugh and see some cute |
