About this episode
Recent years have pushed us to examine the foundational structures of so much in our world. Previously unthinkable realities have called into question the stability of systems we believed to be stone-clad. On the global level, we never imagined a pandemic, fragile democracies or a multi-year war in europe. In so many ways we have had to face the fact that what we thought would be around forever turned out to be unstable. Over and over again we have been surprised to see what might burn.
