Apologies for the delay folks, our writers are on strike and we had to get our AI up and running to get this script done. This episode, we dive deep into Max Brook's second best known novel and take a look at the basest desires of humankind such as food, security and seven million dollar homes complete with a retinue of servants. When a disaster strikes though, the annoying residents of a quaint, bleeding-edge tech based hamlet are forced to survive, despite their best efforts. Once the ash clears, they'll soon learn that an active tectonic plate is only the second most dangerous thing they'll have to contend with.
