THE BOXING DAY TSUNAMI: Stories from the 2004 natural disaster

On Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, Geordie & Michelle look at a Christmas natural disaster...On the 26th of December, 2004, holiday makers in South East Asia woke up to another day in paradise. Sunshine. Blue skies. White-sand beaches. Boxing-Day bliss. And then, disaster struck. An underground earthquake with a magnitude of 9.2, caused by shifting tectonic plates, triggered a tsunami that smashed through the region. This week, Geordie looks at the Indian Ocean tsunami and recounts what happened alongside personal stories from tsunami survivors. So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about mice, Geordie's dog-walking Whatsapp group and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast.
