The Cascadia Subduction Zone lies about 200 miles off the coast of Oregon, Washington and British Columbia and, at some point, a mega thrust earthquake will shake the entire region violently. In today's episode, Geoff and Hunter dive deep into just what a subduction earthquake is, what areas will be impacted, and what people who live in the region can expect when it does happen.
Note: Today's episode was recorded a couple days before the earthquake that struck Turkey. While this episode is supposed to be entertaining, please note that we are not making light of the situation in Turkey and Northern Syria.
