Mad World

From ancient flood myths to Fallout’s irradiated wastelands, humanity has always dreamed of the end. But what if our obsession with the apocalypse isn’t just storytelling? What if these visions—religious, psychological, even digital—are shaping the future itself? Join us as we unravel why we all secretly long for destruction, and whether the end of the world is truly inevitable… or a self-fulfilling prophecy. Special guest Mike Aiello joins the conversation in his first appearance in the Anomaly.
