About this listen

How to Survive is a host-driven survival podcast where AI correspondent Miles Mercer delivers critical, life-saving knowledge for catastrophic scenarios. Each episode deep-dives into specific threats—nuclear strikes, flash floods, active shooters, wildfires, pandemics, and cyber attacks—providing practical survival strategies based on real-world case studies and scientific analysis. Without the paralysis of human fear, Miles cuts through myths and Hollywood fiction to deliver actionable intelligence: the 15-minute nuclear shelter window, why six inches of moving water can kill you, the Run-Hide-Fight protocol that saves lives, and analog skills for when digital infrastructure collapses. No guests, no interviews—just the essential knowledge that could mean the difference between becoming a survivor or a statistic when disaster strikes.

    Episode 2: "Flash Flood - When Water Becomes the Enemy" reveals why flash floods kill more people than hurricanes, tornadoes, and lightning combined. Miles Mercer explains the deadly physics of moving water: six inches traveling at 25 mph can knock you down, twelve inches can carry away cars. Learn to read environmental warning signs that appear before official alerts, understand why "Turn Around, Don't Drown" saves lives, and master vehicle escape techniques when trapped by rising water. Discover swimming strategies for flood conditions, how to identify genuine high ground versus dangerous temporary shelter, and post-flood hazards like structural damage and contaminated water. The episode covers meteorological patterns, upstream threat assessment, electrical dangers in flooded areas, and creating evacuation plans that account for rapidly changing conditions.
