Summary

The Memory Palace is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX.

A note on notes: We’d much rather you just went into each episode of The Memory Palace cold. And just let the story take you where it well. So, we don’t suggest looking into the show notes first.

Music

Time Beat by Ray Cathode
Rabbits of the Void by Tomaga
Weightless by the Neil Cowley Trio
Scenes from the Poet’s Dreams I: Racing Through the Stars by The Lark Quartet
Switchcraft by Chilly Gonzalez
Sky Breaking, Clouds Falling by Mason Lindahl

Notes

There’s a ton written about The Crash at Crush but the one I’d recommend is Train Crash at Crush, Texas: America’s Deadliest Publicity Stunt, by Mike Cox
