18: Natural Disasters

This week the girls are back and talking about some of the natural disasters that have and could effect them! Despite all the different types of natural disasters, they're somehow both talking about earthquakes/tsunamis. Marlena covers some quakes on the west coast and Linna talks about a tsunami that devastated Sweden. Note: We record several weeks before we actually release episodes. This means that occasionally when we mention current events or news by the time the episode is published things have dramatically changed. In this episode we very briefly mention the evolving situation in Ukraine. At the time that we had recorded this, Russia had not yet invaded. Bear that in mind when listening to the segment as the situation is currently much different. What we say in this episode is now untrue.
