Ep. 80: The Hyatt Regency Walkway Collapse

Ep. 74: Carnival's "Poop Cruise" Catastrophe

Pack extra soap if you're planning a cruise. In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a Caribbean cruise from 2013 that took an unexpected left turn when the ship's sewage system failed, causing many of the toilets onboard to overflow with human waste.

Liv would turn to a life of crime during a tragedy.
