About this listen

It Could Happen Here started as an exploration of the possibility of a new civil war. Now a daily show, it's evolved into a chronicle of collapse as it happens, and an exploration of how we might build a better future. Every day Robert Evans, Garrison Davis, Mia Wong, and James Stout take you on a jaunty walk through the burning ruins of the old world and towards a better one that lays just on the horizon.

After finding it via Some More News, I found myself immediately hooked onto the combination of otg reporting and collated reports supported by a great many sources.

Though the content does seem left-leaning, the stories being covered are quite relatable and at least, entertaining to almost anybody. I'd recommend if you're a fan of saying "Jesus Christ" under your breath in response to the story you're being told.

Incredibly informative exposès
