The Great Kalamazoo Pileup of 2015 | Episode 10

The Great Kalamazoo Pileup of 2015 | Episode 10

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.

I work to keep the show varied, by geography, by era, by disaster type - and this was the most interesting but unexpected vehicular disaster I could offer. You drive into a cloud of snow, and literally anything could happen to you inside. This was our first “blind” disaster in that way, so when I say “vary the show”, this was the episode that challenged the very nature of chaos. And two more things. I’ve survived a few disaster-types in my life, and this kind of highway calamity was the very first. Second, this is technically the 10th episode because I was a part of an April Fools program to attract more listeners by swapping episodes with another random podcast.

THANK YOU. Most shows survive at the whim of production companies and corporate sponsors, built from the top down. Doomsday doesn’t exist because some network exec believes in it – it exists because actual people do. It's built from the bottom up, and it’s been my privilege to bring you these stories. Just you, me, and a microphone.

I don’t do this for you, so much as I do this because of you. If you'd like to support the show at Buy Me A Coffee, or join the club over at Patreon for AD-FREE EPISODES, LONGER EPISODES, EXTRA CONTENT, all that good stuff (I’m truly sorry about those ads, they're not in my control)
