About this listen
From pandemics to wars, from floods to economic collapse—every global crisis seems to generate not only suffering, but also windfalls. In this episode, we trace how catastrophes become commerce. We begin with a chilling essay on how disasters shape demand, then unpack the economics of profiteering during COVID, climate crises, and wars. Finally, we look at how governments and corporations manipulate crises geopolitically—from vaccine nationalism to weaponized aid. This is not disaster response. It’s disaster capitalism.
