NRC Today we are on holiday, but we are not completely gone. This week you will hear the winter selection: six of our best episodes from last year. This episode previously released on June 25, 2025.

The world order is shaking. It’s war in Europe. According to the government, we should all have an emergency package at home. Editor Hanna Hosman experienced what that is like earlier this year. She locked herself up for 72 hours without electricity, tap water, internet and telephone, living out of her emergency kit. She now wonders: how is the Netherlands actually prepared for an emergency?
