Our Editor's Take

Marked Safe: A Disaster Podcast examines hurricanes, earthquakes, accidents, and hauntings. Longtime friends Brianne and Melody share a fascination with disasters. The show allows them to investigate the wildest stories they can find. Brianne has been obsessed with disaster tales since first hearing about the Titanic sinking. She will follow any story, whether it's a crashed plane or another sunken ship. Melanie also loves talking about these kinds of horrific events. She somehow finds ways to make inappropriate jokes about them. Her appreciation for raunchy humor is evident.

The podcast's title comes from a Facebook feature where users can identify themselves as "safe" during a disaster. By doing so, they can tell friends and family they are out of harm's way. It also demonstrates that they are near danger. Using the "marked safe" option could be an exciting event for Brianne and Melanie.

In one podcast episode, they discuss the Hindenburg disaster of 1937. A German passenger airship caught fire and killed 35 people. How did the disaster occur? There are many theories, including the possibility of sabotage. Others suggest electric issues, engine failure, and lightning. During the episode, the cohosts also talk about the onset of WWII, Nazis, and dismemberment. They offset the discussion with jokes about "ghost kitchens" and breasts.

Brianne and Melanie dedicate several episodes to amusement park disasters. One tale involves police violence and a derailed rollercoaster. There's also a tragic story of dead children. The hosts warn listeners of their graphic descriptions of the horrible accidents. Cruise ship accidents are another theme on the podcast. Listeners hear about drownings, decomposing bodies, and gambling. Anything is possible when one goes out to sea. Aquarium disasters are also more common than some may think. How did one explode? Brianne and Melanie have the answer.

Every episode begins with a silly chat. Brianne and Melanie discuss their love lives, children, and the hilarious things that happen to them. Their topics can vary from strange smells to moral superiority. New episodes of Marked Safe: A Disaster Podcast come out about once a week.
