FYP: For You Podcast is a story-driven educational podcast hosted by Q and presented by Qs School. Like a For You Page filled with content worth your time, each episode brings students a fascinating story from history, psychology, science, culture, wellbeing, or current affairs. We begin with what happened, look beneath the surface, and finish with a bigger question about ourselves and the world.

In this episode of FYP: For You Podcast, Q connects a possible underwater volcanic discovery off South Australia with the ancient story of Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius. Along the way, we explore how contingency planning helps us prepare without panicking.
