Ep. 417: Crisis (State of the Human)




State of the Human show

Summary: Crises can take many shapes, from earthquakes, to chest pain… to a strange absence of strawberry blonde creatures in the forests of the Dominican Republic. In this show, four very different crises appear at four very different scales, affecting a person, a species, a city, and a human body. In each story, there is no emergency procedure, no obvious way out, and one person must make a choice: what are they going to save, and what are they going to sacrifice? Host: Rosie la Puma Producers: Rachel Hamburg and Will Rogers Featuring: Meg Smaker, César Avril, Nicolás Corona, Simon Winchester, Julian Lozos
