66. The Chernobyl Disaster Part 3

Grab your glass and get cozy, let’s talk about.. the world’s largest nuclear disaster! 

In the third and final part of our Chernobyl series, we will be wrapping up what transpired years after the disaster and what the area is like today. 

Join us as we get into the investigation, trial, and conviction of those that were held responsible for the nuclear reactor explosion. We will also discuss how the hazardous site was finally contained from the rest of the world, a new terrifying discovery within the plant, and if there are any current dangers we should be concerned about today. 

On the lighter side of things, we threw in plenty of urban legends, myths, and conspiracy theories; because who doesn’t love a good conspiracy theory!? We’ve got zombies, mothman, aliens.. The list goes on! Listen to find out more and let us know if you would still be game to visit the Chernobyl exclusion zone after all of this.
