Welcome to what could have been, a podcast where I interview alternate versions of myself that are calling in from across the multiverse. We look at where our universes diverged from one another & how their histories played out compared to ours.
I'm Simon Peterson, your host doing the interviewing with alternate versions of myself from different timelines. We'll start with the point where we diverged from one another, & we'll explore each other's histories so that we can really understand What Could Have Been if we'd made different choices along the way.

In this episode of What Could Have Been, it isn't one different decision that was made, it's a series of different decisions that led to this timeline. We're taking a look at a timeline where little was done to fight Climate Change, allowing the world to heat up at a much faster rate. Where we've recently hit 1.5 degrees of warming, this timeline has now hit 2 degrees of warming. Could this be a glimpse of what might be in store for us if we don't take drastic actions right now? There's one way to find out, tune in & listen to What Could Have Been.

In our third episode, I'm doing something a little bit different. In this episode, we're not looking at a timeline where a different decision was made. Instead, we're looking at a timeline where something happened that didn't happen in out timeline.
The New Madrid Seismic Zone is a place in Western Tennessee where a new fault line started forming hundreds of millions of years ago & then stopped. Today, we're talking to a timeline where the New Madrid Seismic Zone woke up & has started splitting the continent apart again. Come & see a universe where North America is actually in the process of physically splitting apart.

In my second attempt at my second episode, I've managed to bring on a guest from a timeline where after WWII, the Western half of Germany was annexed by France, as opposed to my timeline where it became it's own, kind of a country for a while. See how the second half of the 20th century might have played out if West Germany had never been.
