The Burning Question - Season 3 Episode 4
Show Notes

Would you believe that a deadly fire at the largest casino in Las Vegas was NOT what everyone was talking about?  How could such a monumental disaster not be the topic of conversations all around the country? Find out what was on this episode of TOP FOLD.

Top Fold is dedicated to, "All the news that would have been". What does that mean? That means that on 9/11, or when the Hindenburg exploded, or Elvis Presley died, headlines were replaced and stories fell below the fold. What event happened that was huge but wasn’t talked about because something else monumental took the headlines? The -name of the podcast comes from a combination of "TOP Story" and "Above the FOLD"-TOP FOLD.

Original music by David "Beezer" Wagler.
