Deep Impact | Apocalyptic Movie Hour 📄 Episode Description This week on Apocalyptic Movie Hour, we’re diving into the 1998 comet disaster classic Deep Impact. We break down the government cover-up, the E.L.E. reveal, Morgan Freeman as one of the calmest presidents ever, the shelter lottery, the Messiah mission, and the absolute nightmare of trying to survive a planet-killing impact. It’s part disaster movie, part family drama, part prepper thought experiment, with plenty of 90s internet, bunker talk, tsunami chaos, and the big question: what would people actually do if they had one year left? 🧱 Episode Breakdown ☄️ The Discovery Leo Biederman spots something strange in the sky, and the threat begins before the world has any idea what’s coming. 🗞️ The Cover-Up Jenny Lerner chases what she thinks is a political scandal and accidentally uncovers an extinction-level event. 🇺🇸 The Presidential Announcement President Beck tells the world the truth, announces the Messiah mission, and reveals the survival shelter plan. 🚀 The Messiah Mission A joint U.S. and Russian crew heads to the comet, hoping to stop the impact before it’s too late. 🏔️ The Shelter Lottery The government chooses who gets a spot underground, and survival becomes a brutal mix of selection, timing, family, and luck. 🌊 Impact and Aftermath The smaller fragment hits the Atlantic, the East Coast gets hammered by a massive tsunami, and humanity gets one final shot at avoiding total extinction. 🎧 Podcast Sponsors BattlBox Get 15% off your first BattlBox at: https://survive.battlbox.com/casualpreppers Poncho Outdoors Get $10 off your first order and free shipping: https://ponchooutdoors.com/CASUALPREPPERS LMNT Get a free LMNT Sample Pack with any purchase: https://DrinkLMNT.com/CasualPreppers 🧢 Casual Preppers Merch Grab shirts, hats, stickers, and more: https://casual-preppers-podcast-shop.fourthwall.com/ #StaySurvived
