TM Polycrisis Prep: One Drink to Rule Them All?

“As things fall apart, what’s the one drink you’d carry into the collapse?”

In this episode, we pose the critical question of our time: if we all end up in one ecological safe zone during the polycrisis and are only allowed one alcoholic beverage for the rest of our lives... what drink are we bringing with us?

We’re joined by Mia, Maggie, and Malemi, who gamely dive into this hypothetical apocalypse:

Mia goes with... apple cider.

Maggie: Team Budweiser.

Malemi also sides with beer.

“We just hope the island beer doesn’t give us hangovers — especially if it’s unlimited. That would be a nightmare.”

There’s also a touching ancestral link to apple trees and cider... but the sugar content might make it unsustainable for eternal sipping.

 

So where did we land?

• Cider: Refreshing, crisp, but high maintenance (bathroom-wise).
• Beer: Reliable, social, versatile — maybe not exciting, but comforting.
• Stronger stuff? A tempting shift... but we didn’t see that coming.

So now we ask you: What alcoholic beverage are YOU bringing into the polycrisis?
