Episode 55 - A fire that has burnt for 59 years and Operation Mincemeat pt 1

Chris learns about a fire that has been burning for the past 59 years and is predicted to burn for between another 100-250 years. The mad thing is, it could have been completely avoided if a certain city council didn’t dump rubbish down a mine shaft and then purposely set fire to it… In real terms, it means a city in Pennsylvania has been all-but abandoned, whilst graffiti artists have covered the local highway in, well, graffiti! Meanwhile, Harrison found out about an audacious World War II plan dreamt up by the British secret service called ‘Operation Mincemeat’. This wartime mission was so insane, Harrison has decided to split his part of the podcast across two episodes!
