About this listen

"The value of things becomes zero when time is all you have left." When systems fail, it isn't technology that determines what happens next—it's human behavior. Crisis strips away social norms and exposes how people respond to fear, scarcity, and uncertainty. Some move toward responsibility, others freeze, and some exploit the chaos. Preparedness, emotional regulation, and values become the difference between cooperation and collapse when order disappears. G. Michael Hopf explores these dynamics through apocalyptic fiction grounded in realism. Drawing from lived experience, he focuses less on destruction and more on why people act the way they do under pressure. From EMP-driven grid failure to extinction-level events, his stories examine panic, opportunism, leadership, and moral choice—especially the moment when one person's action gives everyone else permission to cross a line. Michael is a Marine Corps combat veteran and USA Today bestselling author with over 40 novels published and more than two million books sold. He is also a publisher, entrepreneur, and advocate for preparedness, resilience, and intentional living shaped by loss, discipline, and responsibility.
