Synopsis

It seems like people are always talking about the end of the world, doesn't it? Y2K, the Mayan Apocalypse, Blood Moon Prophecies, nuclear war, killer robots, you name it. In Apocalypse Any Day Now, journalist Tea Krulos travels the country to try to puzzle out America's obsession with the end of days. Along the way he meets doomsday preppers—people who stockpile supplies and learn survival skills—as well as religious prognosticators and climate scientists. He camps out with the Zombie Squad (who use a zombie apocalypse as a survival metaphor); tours the Survival Condos, a luxurious bunker built in an old Atlas missile silo; and attends Wasteland Weekend, where people party like the world has already ended. Frightening and funny, the ideas Krulos explores range from ridiculously outlandish to alarmingly near and present dangers.

Krulos’ engagement with this world helps his subjects open up to him and also makes for a more entertaining......more

Goodreads review by DeWayne on March 27, 2024

Living on the Western Slope of Colorado, I frequently encounter people with the "persona" of "leave me alone and let me do my thing". These range from the homeless communal hippy to the well-armed militia, both looking for a place where they can live their lifestyle without having to deal with the l......more

Goodreads review by Anastacia on May 18, 2019

This audiobook is about hanging out with preppers. Well, sort of. Tea goes around talking about AI, zombie parties, apocalypse parties, and people who predict the end of the world. He doesn't really spend much time talking about actually prepping or homesteading. A bit disappointing, and some of the......more
