Pop Culture and the Pre Apocalypse: Staying Sane in a Surreal World

The Different-Functional Podcast

There’s a whole lot of crazy going on in the world right now. Maybe there always is but these last few years it has felt worse than usual. The pandemic, social unrest, political corruption, economic downturn, ongoing war, an uptick in natural disasters, and so on and so on. Nearly all of us are feeling the effects of this combined chaos in one way or another, and while it’s not quite the apocalypse there are some days when it sure does feel like it. So, what are we to do? How do we get through the madness of these trying times while still maintaining our sanity? Well, when truth becomes stranger than fiction it might actually be beneficial to explore what real-world survival skills fictional pop culture protagonists can teach us to help us survive the pre-apocalypse.
