Exactly 50 years ago today, the worst tornado in Ohio’s history slammed into Xenia, Ohio, killing 35 people, injuring 1,300, and causing $100 million dollars in damage. Join us as we talk about what happened a half century ago, as well as our recent trip to the city of Xenia, and also stopping by a couple of cemeteries to pay our respects to two of the victims, a young mother and her seven-year old son.
