Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It Could Happen Here is a 2019 podcast created by Robert Evans of Cracked fame. Evans' podcast looks at potential disasters and events and examines what their fallout could be, laying out what happens as each domino falls. The first season examines the political divide in the United States that was intensified by the 2016 elections, and does a What If? on the idea if the divisions were to spiral into a full-out civil war.Citing actual civil wars that are currently going on, along with other trends seen, the podcast details how such a war would realistically look like in the US, and what factions would be active during such an event.Listen to the podcast here. See also Evans' other work Behind the Bastards, a much more light-hearted work concerning the kind of person who could end up starting such a scenario in real life. He has also writen a novel based on many of the ideas presented in this podcast called After the Revolution. In August 2021, Evans announced that he was making a continuation of the podcast, called It Could Happen Here Daily, which discusses other factors in society that could contribute to collapse beyond a civil war.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

A Nuclear Error | |
| It Could Happen Here (Podcast) / int_9cc7c9fe | comment |
A Nuclear Error: One episode points out that it is unlikely for the US government to deploy nuclear weapons on US soil. However, it is very possible for such a weapon to fall out of US control by sheer incompetence and into the hands of the many rogue factions during the war, citing actual incidents from military divisions that control nuclear arms. | |

Anarchy Is Chaos | |
| It Could Happen Here (Podcast) / int_a270b9e5 | comment |
Anarchy Is Chaos: Both played straight and....averted. While in the narration the fall of the US government results in large amounts of chaos in the land, Evans also details how it's not a guarantee that a government pullout would turn into a Hobbesian nightmare. He also cites a real-life event during Hurricane Katrina where relief workers were expecting hell, but ended up finding very little violence and destruction save for the hurricane. The narration, details your city being abandoned by the US government, and life becoming....semi-normal afterwards. Until the Dominionist forces show up of course. He's also aware of real anarchist and libertarian ideas of alternate social orders, saying that he sympathizes with them, going into a bit of detail about how they might be used. | |
