Juli 2021: Die 22-jährige Johanna Orth aus Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler ist auf dem besten Weg in eine erfüllte Zukunft. Gerade fertig mit der Ausbildung, frisch verliebt und mit der Aussicht auf eine eigene Konditorei. Dann reißt sie die Flutwelle aus dem Leben. Der Host Marius Reichert ist selbst in Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler zu Hause und berichtete als Reporter aus Nordrhein-Westfalen und Rheinland-Pfalz über die Flut. Er kennt die Schicksale der Betroffenen - auch die Geschichte von Johanna. Zusammen mit ihren Eltern begibt sich Marius auf die Suche nach Antworten rund um die Ereignisse dieser verhängnisvollen Nacht: Wie kam Johanna ums Leben? Wie konnte es so weit kommen? Warum wurde Johanna nicht früher gewarnt? Wer trägt Verantwortung? Johanna soll den mehr als 180 Todesopfern der Flut ein Gesicht geben, so der Wunsch der Eltern, denn der Schrecken dieser Katastrophe darf nicht in Vergessenheit geraten. Mithilfe verschiedener Gesprächspartner - Betroffene, Angehörige, Politiker:innen, Einsatzkräfte, Expert:innen - geht Marius Reichert diesen Fragen auf den Grund. Die ersten sechs Folgen sind am 1. Juli 2022 erschienen. Ein Update zum zweiten Jahrestag erscheint am 7. Juli 2023: Wie geht es den Orths zwei Jahre nach der Katastrophe und wie steht es um die Aufarbeitung? Der Podcast ist eine Produktion von SWR und WDR. Hier noch eine Warnung: In diesem Podcast werden die Todesumstände von Johanna und der Umgang mit ihrem Tod explizit beschrieben. Wenn euch Themen wie Tod, Trauer oder Suizid belasten oder ihr selbst von den Ereignissen betroffen wart und traumatisiert seid, dann hört euch den Podcast besser nicht an oder nicht allein.

A major emergency affecting a large number of people may occur anytime and anywhere. It may be a peacetime disaster such as a flood, tornado, fire, hurricane, blizzard or earthquake. It could be an enemy nuclear attack on the United States. In any type of general disaster, lives can be saved if people are prepared for the emergency, and know what actions to take when it occurs. This handbook, 'In Time of Emergency' (1968), contains basic general information on both nuclear attack and major natural disasters. This general guidance supplements the specific instructions issued by local governments. Since special conditions may exist in some communities, the local instructions may be slightly different from this general guidance. In those cases, the local instructions should be followed.
