Episode 63 The Pants, the Plot, and the Pickle Rain: Sodium Chlorate's Wild Ride This week on Crime to Burn, we celebrate our one-year podiversary with an explosive tale—literally. From flaming trousers and banned weedkillers to accidental city-shaking disasters caused by petty crime, we trace the chaotic path of sodium chlorate: the chemical that just couldn’t stop stealing the spotlight. We cover: The fiery fashion faux pas that haunted New Zealand farmers The whiskey heist that accidentally leveled part of Vancouver The bad-boy redemption arc that now has it saving lives at 30,000 feet Join us as we salute one of chemistry’s most chaotic compounds—and raise a toast (not a match) to one year of fire, crime, and chemically-assisted absurdity.
