Harry R. Truman: The guy who fought a volcano and tried to drown his wife

Some people would call Harry R Truman a legend. Others, like his ex-wife who he tried to drown in a lake would probably say he was a terrible person. Everyone would call him stubborn. In 1980 when Mt. St Helen's showed signs of blowing its top Truman refused to leave the area and instead hunkered down with his sixteen cats. In this episode of Wiki U Kyle and Jheisson learn about his life, the Mt. St. Helen's eruption, and the Great Comet of the 1800's. It's an old timey podcast!
