The Bhopal Gas Disaster - 1984

Season 4, Episode 20, May 05, 2019, 05:00 AM

It's 1984, it's Madhya Pradesh in India, and underneath Bhopal's Union Carbide pesticide plant tank E-610 is about ready to blow its hinges.

In what panicking chemical factory employees are already calling the 20th episode of the CB Wallop Podcast join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss The Bhopal Gas Disaster - the huge toxic cloud that enveloped the city of Bhopal leaving a thirty year legacy of pain, misery, disease and death.

Is this one of the nastiest ones we're ever done? … yes.. yes it probably is.

Trigger Warning - okay, so along with everything you're probably expecting anyway - gassing, choking, dead bodies on the streets, carcasses being eaten by vultures, this one also involves spontaneous abortion, long term birth defects, blindness, infertility and cancer. Not for the faint-hearted this one.
