About this episode
🌊🧊 At the end of the last Ice Age, melting glaciers released unimaginable volumes of water, reshaping continents, coastlines, and human memory itself. Massive floods carved valleys, drowned ancient landscapes, and may have inspired the world’s earliest flood myths — echoes of a catastrophe too large to forget.
Tonight, drift back to a colder Earth, where ice gave way to water, shorelines vanished, and the modern world quietly began beneath rising seas.
