Emily and Jason face the ultimate test—figuring out if they have what it takes to survive the end of the world. Would they be the resourceful leaders of a new society, or would they be taken out immediately by something embarrassingly preventable? They break down the types of people most likely to survive, the absolute worst ones to be stuck with, and which apocalypse scenario is actually the most realistic. From total government collapse to AI takeovers, they cover the best (and worst) survival strategies with absolutely no expertise. Will their crunchy lifestyle give them an edge, or will their aversion to synthetic materials be their downfall? It’s chaotic, it’s ridiculous, and it just might be the most unhinged episode yet. If you’ve ever wondered how you’d fare in an apocalypse, this one’s for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
