S10 Ep 277North of Waco: The Crash at Crush - REWIND
One of the stranger fascinations of humans is with things being destroyed. Whether it be a demolition derby, a "Dude Perfect" YouTube video, or trains being staged to crash into each other, we're enthralled by destruction.

In this episode, we tell the story about the publicity stunt and then chat with Magician and Train Enthusiast Cody Clark!
