In this special episode, Dr. Zarka shows you what’s inside her “go bag,” a kit of survival supplies she keeps on hand at all times. Why would someone need such a thing? For the inevitable zombie apocalypse of course! But in all seriousness, why do we have such a fascination with apocalyptic scenarios?

In this episode you’ll find out how the horror genre can inspire real-world preparedness and take a look at how humans throughout history use literature, film, and art as ways to explore (and even practice for) real-world pandemics and disasters. #gobag #zombieapocalypse #MonstrumPBS
