The Shape of Collapse | EP 1

In the premiere episode of Collapse Cast, we’re not starting with explosions — we’re starting with erosion.

This isn’t about the apocalypse. It’s about the process — the slow, systemic failures no one wants to admit are already in motion. From the collapse of trust to the failure of infrastructure, the vanishing of meaning, and the silencing of Cassandras, this episode maps the terrain of breakdown and asks the question:

What if you’re not crazy for noticing things feel off?

Because collapse isn’t always sudden. But it’s always systemic.
