22 – How Not to Die: Texas Winter Edition

<p>It's us again, folks! Back for another epi- ahh! Did the power just go out?! We'll meet you in the kitchen!</p><p>This week, Dana takes us back to winter of 2021 where the hits just kept on coming. We learn about how preventable, enormous, and deadly the Texas power outages were. And, how fun! We also learn that these rolling blackouts and power surges are going to be much more common in the years to come as climate change, corrupt political systems, and aging infrastructure impacts countries around the world.</p><p>Luckily, you have us. Dana teaches us the ins and outs of preparing for a winter power outage ahead of time and how to stay safe during one. But first, Sarah has to make sure someone isn't carefully knocking on her closet door to murder her. Stay tuned to find out.</p><p>As always, please find it in your heart to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts - but only if you love us.</p><p>Like the show and want it to keep happening?
