Episode Details

When a roof leak, a failing server, a dissolving lease, and a regional security crisis all hit at once, how do you even know where to start? This episode unpacks the art of impromptu disaster recovery when multiple systems collapse simultaneously. We explore the National Institute of Standards and Technology's framework on cascading failures, the emergency medicine triage sieve, and why the first step in any stacked crisis is doing nothing for sixty seconds. Learn how to sort urgency from importance, protect irreversible losses first, and stabilize the human system before the technical one.
