Infrastructure Junkies host TikTok sensation and co-influencer, the Armchair Engineer to lead them through an examination of what is perhaps America's greatest infrastructure marvel of all time, the Hoover Dam. Listen in to learn about the taming of the wild and wonderous Colorado River and political jockeying for water allocation among the seven states which border that tributary. How was that dam conceived? How was such an incredible infrastructure achievement constructed? The perils of construction could never be replicated today. The Hoover Dam provides hydroelectric power to communities, irrigates countless farms, provides drinking water to millions, and represents a veritable triumph of 20th century engineering. Adam Ratliff explains how reservoirs function as water "savings accounts" and the current status--and future prospects of Lake Mead. This is one fantastic episode!
