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!
