The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire was one of the worst tragedies in the history of New York City...and somehow our guests Chris Covert and Ken Krantz made it okay to laugh at. The disaster spawned true reform for working conditions in America, the labor movement took on a new chapter and even those crazy old Roosevelts got involved. A truly irreverent take on an important topic...this one had us laughing big time.
