In todayโ€™s episode, Host Jeff Hopeck (Former U.S. Secret Service Officer) gives a detailed account of May 11, 2005 (he was standing post on the North grounds of the White House). It was the day an airplane disaster caused a panicked, chaos-filled White House evacuation. Being only a few short years after 9/11, it was a charged atmosphere. 

โ€œAll the training in the world canโ€™t properly prepare you for the radio transmission that turned a blue-sky, cloudless day, into what felt like the last couple minutes on earth.โ€ โ€” Jeff Hopeck
