About this listen

 Explore how ancient flood myths, volcanic disasters, and earthquake legends served as humanity's first warning systems. This episode traces the powerful connection between geological catastrophes and the stories civilizations created to process trauma, transmit survival knowledge, and find meaning in destruction—from the Epic of Gilgamesh to Pompeii to the 2004 tsunami. Discover why the moral frameworks our ancestors built around disaster still shape how we understand catastrophe today.
