Fish are an enormous source of food for billions of people on the planet, not to mention all the other animals that rely on them. Despite this, humans have been overfishing our oceans for decades and it's gotten to the point where fisheries are starting to collapse around the globe. Join Geoff Gibson and Hunter Shobe as they take a deep "dive" into what happens if global fisheries collapse and we're no longer able to feed ourselves with fish.

Welcome to part 2 of our episode on the World Cup. In this episode, Hunter and I break down various scenarios on what would actually be different if the World Cup simply didn’t exist. We like to think of the World Cup as being only a soccer tournament played every four years, but it’s left quite the impact on the planet over the last 100 years. Prefer to listen elsewhere? You can!

The World Cup is in full swing right now and practically everyone is talking about it. Even this podcast! But with a completely different spin on it. Join Hunter and Geoff as they break down the history of the World Cup, why it's so important geographically, and what the world might look like if they tournament never existed, or simply ceased to exist today.

The United States spent billions of dollars in the middle part of the 20th century building out a network of Interstate highways. This left an indelible mark on the United States as a whole, especially within cities. But building out such a network was not always a guarantee. So what if the U.S. never built the Interstate Highway System in the first place?

The conclusion of our two part series on what if borders simply didn't exist in the world? What would the world look like? How would the flow of people and commodities move? Join Hunter and Geoff as they explore the what if part of a world without international borders.

International borders have carved up the world in a thousand different ways. But while they seem like permanent fixtures, international borders don't actually exist. Rather they are human-made constructs that tell us where we can or can not go. And not all that long ago, borders didn't really exist at all, at least not in the way we think of them now. Join Geoff and Hunter as they explore the history of borders and what they mean for people all over the world!

The thrilling conclusion to the great question: What if the Southwest United States runs out of water? In this Episode, Geoff and Hunter speculate on what exactly would be the ramifications of an entire region either running low on water, or running out entirely.

How did it get into this situation in the first place, what are the primary drivers of the water issues, and what's being done about it.This is the first part of the two part episode so stay tuned for next week's conclusion!
