Uncomfortable listening. Disrespectful coverage of tragedies
I want to like this, as I love listening to Black Box Down, but this podcast is just uncomfortable listening. The hosts treat the tragedy they are discussing as a comedy. People being crushed by furniture is not funny. Racist stereotyping is not funny. Black Box Down is interesting because its approach is to give you the facts of the disaster, then explain how safety was improved as a result. Nobody disrespects the deceased by making fun of how they died. You come away feeling you have learned something, and feeling more confident about flying. This nautical disaster podcast could be really good if the hosts changed to a more respectful and factual tone, and stopped making racial stereotype jokes. Jokes about landing in poop filled water and children drowning? Yes, it Is still too soon to laugh about these things.

This podcast is pretty cringeworthy with the hosts unnecessarily political commentary. This podcast is a great idea though so hopefully they can turn it around or get some new hosts.
