The Cherry Mine Disaster of 1909 | Episode 83
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
02/06/25 • 52 min
We’re going to hell! Well, not hell exactly. We’re going to rural Illinois, but for the purposes of this introduction, we are going to be spending time today in hell.
On today’s episode: you’re going to learn why fourth graders make such poor employees; you’ll learn how to properly panic like a professional; and you will learn how to tell people to “get out” using nothing but a shotgun and morse code.
And if you were listening to this on Patreon... you would also learn the story of the Patron Saint who watches over people who explode; you'd learn why underground coal fires are the disaster you can tell your great, great, great, great, great grandchildren about; you would hear a quick anecdote about nicotine poisoning in the workplace and inappropriate banana usage; and you would find out who gets coal for Christmas.
This was another bad-day-at-work episodes, but it was a good one, because it happened in such a small, unassuming place, but had safety ramifications that spread around the world. This is dedicated to everyone who loves mining and mining disasters. And on that note, most people don't think about mining very often - so this is my love letter to the industry. You love mining, you ask? No, not overly, but in my opinion, our entire evolution as a society and as a species would have been impossible without men willing to climb into the earth to do the work too frightening or dangerous for the masses. On the upside, at least it pays well, and we do get the occasional story out of it.

The Byford Dolphin Incident of 1983 | Episode 33
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
04/26/22 • 36 min
Today, we’re going to make you afraid of water, and invertebrates, and working. We’ve covered a lot of Bad Day at Work episodes, but this is by far the worst one we’ve ever done, and we don’t mean just by blood volume. We mean by pure existential horror. Enjoy!
On this episode, we’re going to explore a job so difficult, there are less than 400 people on the planet who can do it, you’re going to hear about the forced the expulsion of his thoracoabdominal cavity, and you’re going to hear the term meat balloon used contextually.
This is hands down the most existentially horrifying episode we’ve done to date. It all takes place in a moment, and it looks like something out of that annual La Tomatina tomato-based street fight they hold in Spain. Celebrity guest stars include James Cameron, Jaques Picard, World Record holders Herbert Nitsch and Ahmed Gabr, and Nils Olav III the Penguin.

The White Friday Avalanche of 1916 | Episode 18
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
08/16/21 • 40 min
The Great Boston Molassacre of 1919
We’ve talked about the Cold War before. But today we’re going to talk about a very cold war. Just sit back, slice open a Taun Taun, and let’s get into it.
We say the only value of any disaster is what can be learned to safeguard people in the future, but in this case it was very much a matter of people dancing on the lip of the volcano. We’re going to talk about a disaster so phenomenal it was erased from history.
On this episode we will describe shattered bodies with blue faces, people having their insides turned into their outsides, and pieces of people and equipment intermingled. I will also premiere a secret psychic force I’ve been quietly developing in my down time. Celebrity cameos include Franz Ferdinand and Utzi the Iceman.

The Kalamazoo Pileup of 2015 | Episode 11
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
04/07/21 • 36 min
This episode is a short one but a good one. What it lacks in bloodshed, it will make up for in patriotic razzmatazz and screaming. We are calling this our palate cleanser episode.
In this episode you will hear about people screaming for their lives – nothing weird there. You’ll hear cheese grater used as a verb – that’s kind of new. All in all, this is our palate cleanser episode. You could pretty much play this one while eating or around kids – but there is a brief mention of masturbation – so there’s that.
Fantastic is defined as imaginative, extraordinary, irrational, wild, absurd, implausible, far-fetched and unbelievable. We promised fireworks, and we hope you’ll agree, today’s story was short but fantastic.

Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
09/05/21 • 37 min
Massachusetts has never been the most friendly of States. From their baseball fans to their witch burners to their license plate motto writers there is a history of bitterness. Today’s story however, is going to be a little sweet.
This gets categorized more into the bizarre and awe-inspiring than forgotten, but the level of detail scooped here will make it feel fresh and new. No joke, this episode is such a complete and unconditional disaster which so little opportunity to escape or help yourself, you’ll find our actual help segment helpful, but not in the normal way.
On this episode is full of surprises. Like, what is the last part of a body fish will eat. The answer will surprise you And you’ll hear about a new take on the old cut-a-person-in-half magic trick. Celebrity cameos include Sir Isaac Newton - who once put a needle through his eye - and Usain Bolt - who dies terribly and unnecessarily.

The Asiana Airlines Disaster of 2013 | Episode 68
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
04/15/24 • 46 min
Fun fact: Airplane accidents have a 95.7% survivability rate, according to the US National Transportation Safety Board. This story actually has a 99.02% survivability rate – but those that do die – you might want to limber your neck, because you’re going to be shaking your head.
On this episode: you won’t learn to fly a plane but I will be able to teach you how not to fly one; we’ll learn what happens when you go skydiving at ground-level; and we’ll learn about a victim who was killed by her own rescuers - twice.
This story will showcase what became of a once proud company known for safety and innovation, and how they’ve become the laughing stock of airlines. Speaking of laughing, we’re also going to test your sense of humour in this one. For starts, yes, one of the victims has something unimaginable happen, and for no good reason - twice! And it’s not just the circumstances of the death that will get off to a weird start - it’s the media’s coverage of the event. I’ll tell you about that right at the end, and ho lee fuk is it a weird one.
Celebrity guests include: virtuoso and piano enthusiast, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; nervous former pilot from Airplane: The Movie, Ted Striker; one-man anti-terrorist task force and movie star, John McClane; and a quick visit from professional worriers, Serena Williams and Tom Hanks.
And if you were a Patreon supporter, you would also enjoy an additional 12 minutes where we discussed:
• Canada’s love/hate relationship with a retailer legally called Crappy Tire
• how Boeing became such an absolute fart of a company
• we recapped the beloved Christmas tale Die Hard 2
• we explored the parallels between this disaster and Airplane: The Movie
• and the world’s first safety segment within a safety segment where we cover what to do if you survive a plane crash and the universe tries to Final Destination you about it

The US Navy vs Typhoon Cobra in 1944 | Episode 7
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
02/21/21 • 37 min
Weather prediction is hard, and chances are your local weather person has a terrible track record and you think they stink at their job. Well, the weatherman in today’s episode would like you to hold your judgement – and their beer.
If you like shipwrecks, sharks and celebrity guest stars, this is the episode for you. In this episode you will hear about some pretty casual olde-timey racism, the strange tale of a man swimming after a torpedo in hopes they could blow up together, and the dietary habits of sharks.
It’s not every day we get to do an episode that contains shipwrecks, carnage, blind mistakes and untold heroism. But also, we warned you that “bad day at work” would become a pretty common theme in this podcast. We think we over delivered on this episode.

The Sknyliv Airshow Disaster of 2002 | Episode 12
Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast
04/17/21 • 36 min
On this episode we are going to learn why fighter jets – graceful and aerobatic though they may be – make terrible ground vehicles. You’ll also learn how to say run for your lives in Ukranian.
We'll be celebrating unlucky episode number thirteen by describing burning jet fuel and debris spraying into a crowd, and something described as behaving “like a human lawn mower”. We’re considering putting out barf bags for our beloved Doomsday Cult Members, and this is the episode that inspired the idea.
So, Air Shows huh? Nothing really funny or fun to say about them. They have a pretty good safety record, but on those rare occasions where something does go wrong, they are pure nightmare fuel.
