United Kingdom2 months ago - Too preachy, slanted, morose take
From the opening lines to the series, the author makes it clear that, in her view, the fact that the bomb was created at all — irrespective of any contextual factors — is the worst tragedy in human history; and that she feels guilt, shame, and pain just thinking about exploring the context in which it occurred. more

Excellent combination of nuclear science, analysis of the society, tension and psychology of the time, looking from a global perspective.

If history is written by victor, this podcast is made by psychotics who detached from reality. The perspective is demonizing scientists, promoting submission, and is a huge disgrace to all those who sacrificed in the war from both sides.
