GEOFF BRUMFIEL, HOST: Hello. Geoff Brumfiel here steering the great ship SHORT WAVE. And I m joined today by special guest Kat Lonsdorf. Hi, Kat.
KAT LONSDORF, BYLINE: Hey there.
BRUMFIEL: So, Kat, we ve brought you on the show today because you were present at a big reopening last year.
LONSDORF: That s right. I won an Above the Fray Fellowship to visit the evacuated villages and towns around the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan, where you might remember there were a series of meltdowns after a tsunami hit it in 2011.
BRUMFIEL: Yes, I remember very well.
LONSDORF: Yeah. And I was there just at the start of the pandemic before all the lockdowns as one of the towns reopened to the public last spring. It was this big scene. A big gate was unlocked and pulled back.
