Ava Grey examines institutional failures that doomed Fukushima Daiichi before the 2011 tsunami. TEPCO's 2008 simulations predicted a 15-meter wave—nearly what struck—yet safety upgrades were never made. Grey dissects regulatory capture, the "safety myth," and corporate complacency that buried evidence and left backup systems vulnerable.Loved this episode?

Host Ava Grey examines how Fukushima Daiichi's safety systems catastrophically failed on March 11, 2011. A 45-foot tsunami overwhelmed defenses designed for 19 feet, drowning backup generators and triggering three reactor meltdowns. This forensic analysis reveals how common-cause failures transform redundancy into illusion and expose fatal architectural flaws.Loved this episode?
