United States6 months ago - Not scared that Trump is POTUS? Listen to this podcast
Highly recommend this podcast, especially to those who doubt the grave danger presented by the man currently sitting in the Oval Office. Lisa Perry has a beautiful voice and she manages to sound both smart and curious about this very sobering and important topic.
Apple Podcasts5RumseyeUnited States6 months ago - Best single educational tool for aspiring activists
I have read 32 books, viewed 34 movies/videos, read dozens of scientific articles, and attended several conferences on subjects addressed in this podcast.

Apple Podcasts5NeuronallyUnited Statesa year ago - Glorified William Perry podcast
I completely agree with the premise of the podcast, which is the extreme danger of nuclear weapons. Although the show can present great insights to both the horrors of nuclear warfare, as well as the challenges to nuclear disarmament, way too much of the show is spent on highlighting Perry’s work. From highlighting his legacy to an unbalanced view of all Republican legislation, Perry’s granddaughter does not do the topic justice. I understand that the narrative is biased having been a relic from... more
Apple Podcasts1Juan Diego SapotecUnited Statesa year ago - Fascinating, important public service
Thank you for doing this. Please keep it up, especially the focus on the technical, institutional, and psychological underpinnings of how nuclear war could happen by “mistake”. I think one of the main reasons we as a society are less afraid of nuclear war than we should be is that we cling to the belief that nuclear weapons are at all times securely under the control of human decision makers possessing full information. We need to collectively disabuse ourselves of this belief.
