Extreme weather is becoming more frequent. Now some towns that were
touted as "safe" are seeing hurricanes, floods or heat waves. This
week, host Brittany Luse is joined by NPR climate solutions
reporter Julia Simon and NPR culture reporter Chloe Veltman to
understand misconceptions around "climate havens" and what it means
to preserve culture in the face of the climate crisis.

Then, Brittany continues her Trilogy of Terror series with an
unexpected horror trope: scary service workers. She invites Bowdoin
College English professor Aviva Briefel and Slate writer Joshua
Rivera to break down how the maids, murderers, and motel workers in
horror reveal different cultural anxieties about eating the
rich.
