  16. Remembering September 11th 11.09.2026 1h 13min

  In today's case deep dive, we tell the stories of the four US airliners hijacked by Jihadist al-Qaeda terrorists on September 11th 2001, crashing the planes into four targets chosen by the Islamist terrorist organization because of their symbolism of American power.We end the episode by telling of the heart-warming tale of a tiny town of 11,000 in Gander, Newfoundland, Canada, that played host for a week to 7,000 "plane people" whose NYC bound flights had to suddenly be rerouted after the Twin Towers were struck. The townspeople and the stranded passengers came together, showing the best side of human kindness and decency--a great way to end an otherwise tragic recounting of events. We hope this episode reminds Americans of our resilience as a nation, as well as serving as a clarion call to the individual and collective to move forward with a renewed devotion to living in peace and harmony with those from other nations, creeds, religions and political persuasions, regardless of the division and vitriol sewn by many. To quote heroic Flight 93 passenger, Todd Beamer, "Are you ready? Let's roll!"
