In Episode 3 we go to Centralia, Pennsylvania to explore a disaster that's much bigger than it looks from downtown. You'll hear all about mine fires, the slow and dangerous death of Centralia, and how failures at the city, county, state and federal levels started and worsened an enormous underground fire  - one that's expected to burn for the next 250 years.
