Vulcan Add us as a preferred source on Google

Vulcan tells the true stories of the world's great volcanic eruptions and the science of how volcanoes work. Each episode, host Nirob takes one eruption — a mountain that buried two Roman cities in a day, an island that exploded and was heard three thousand miles away, a year without a summer, a city of thirty thousand wiped out in two minutes — and rebuilds it: the mountain and its long history, the warnings that were or were not heeded, the eruption as it actually unfolded, the toll it took, and the science that came out of the ashes.From Vesuvius and Santorini to Tambora and Krakatoa, from Mount Pelée and Mount St. Helens to Pinatubo, Eyjafjallajökull and the supervolcano beneath Yellowstone, Vulcan is about the most powerful and least predictable force in the natural world — and about the people who have learned, slowly and often at terrible cost, to listen to the mountains. Meticulously researched, honest about what is known and what is still unknowable, and always clear about the difference between the record and the legend. Clean and suitable for all ages. A new eruption every week
