Episode description

 When a major catastrophe at a nuclear missile facility happened most people weren't aware because another major event on the West Coast stole the headlines. Find out what it 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.
