The Non-prophets

When a volcano stirs, who do you trust? This episode dives into the recent seismic activity of Iliamna volcano, contrasting scientific data with dramatic, religiously-tinged speculation about "Lord Vulcan." We expose the dangers of abandoning expert geological analysis for fear-based, supernatural narratives. It’s a hilarious yet critical look at how dogma tries to explain natural events, highlighting the crucial importance of secular principles and relying on actual volcanologists for real insights, especially when communities are at risk.
