A podcast unpacking the disasters wrought by human folly
Manmade Catastrophes uses dramatic, deeply researched storytelling and archival audio to explore some of the worst disasters caused by man. Some are accidents sprouting from hubris, greed or incompetence, others a result of malice and a complete disregard for fellow human beings. Some you’ve probably never heard of, others you may know, but don’t know the full story on. No manmade catastrophe happens in a vacuum, so subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts and join us as we untangle the complex economic, political, social, cultural and psychological phenomena that converge to bring human suffering and death on a massive scale.
