Welcome to Apocalypse How, a podcast where we sit with the chaos and strive to be gentle as well as critical and curious. I’m Heidi Ippolito: a lifelong learner, a film lover, a doctor of memes, and an endlessly curious person. We’re all feeling a bit apocalyptic right now, and I want to face this feeling head-on, while also remaining gentle and kind. As we ask big questions and sit in the gray, I welcome you to join me in finding hope amidst the chaos. This podcast aims to slow things down as we discuss current events, niche cultures, and American history from a variety of perspectives. My curated research (alongside rotating interviews with interesting people) will generate conversations about religion, pop culture, conspiracies, and what it means to be human.
