There might have not been fires near your home in California, if we advocated for nuclear energy versus spread misinformation about it.
These weapons have caused much suffering even if they don’t get “used” again. Thanks for getting the stories out.
I saw this podcast and since been listening to at least two episodes a day. Very very clear to the lay-person (as that’s how I see myself) highly educational and wow, just so addictive. Thank you Libbe for setting this podcast series up, I feel that my eyes have been opened to this Nuclear horror and I want to help in every way to pass on your podcasts. No more Ice for me!
