Holy Cannoli!: 1980 Eruption of Mount St. Helens Part 2

Holy Cannoli!: 1980 Eruption of Mount St. Helens Part 2

This week, we explore human complexities, a Cody-centric blooper gets left in, yet another governor victim-blames, and Melanie fantasizes about toad vengeance.

Content warnings: flood, landslide, volcanic eruption, implied death of horses, death of family including children 22:10, extended wait for search and rescue, difficult body identification, various non-graphic references to dead wildlife and pets.
