Welcome to Season 1, Episode 5 of “Random Knowledge You Should Know”. Hello and welcome to a jaw-dropping episode where we unearth the wild, untold stories of the Hoover Dam! This colossal concrete marvel, straddling the Arizona-Nevada border, tamed the mighty Colorado River and powered the Southwest, but its history is packed with bizarre twists—from Nazi sabotage schemes and a celestial star map etched in stone to a mascot dog buried on-site and a refrigeration system that churned out ice by the ton. Join us as we dive into the engineering triumphs, human sacrifices, and downright strange facts that make the Hoover Dam an American legend!
