Show Notes

In 2010, a volcanic eruption beneath an Icelandic glacier did something no government or crisis had ever achieved. It shut down European air travel. In this Compact Disasters episode, we explore how Eyjafjallajökull grounded millions, disrupted global supply chains, and revealed just how fragile modern systems really are.
