The Belva Mine Lumberkjack & Kentucky Mine Disasters

 This week the gang gets together and talks about that great
Kentucky tradition: mine disasters. Wes relays the story of the
strange encounter with the Belva Mine Lumberjack (aka The Flannel
Man) during the 1945 Belv No. 1 Mine Explosion, then Kate
transition into more mundane but still notable and tragic
historical mine disasters. They also recount dumb stories of
their fathers' coal mining careers. Wes may have to go on a road
trip because of an old newspaper cover posted on the
internet.
