Climate change

There might have not been fires near your home in California, if we advocated for nuclear energy versus spread misinformation about it.

Very Good Podcast!

These weapons have caused much suffering even if they don’t get “used” again. Thanks for getting the stories out.

Trouble Getting Links

Hello, I could not find another way to reach out to you, so I’m posting my question here. I was listening you your podcast and was interested in learning more about the topics you discuss in episode 547, but there are no links to the articles posted on the episode page. I had trouble finding some of them on Google, so I wanted to ask if you would be able to post them on the episode page? I’m assuming they are supposed to go where it says “Links: (coming…).” :) Thank you!

Into the Echo-Chamber

Take a deep dive into the conspiratorial thinking of the anti-nuclear echo-chamber with Libbe HaLevy. Entering this self-referential and fear-mongering world may leave you knowing fewer true things, but you will enjoy the warm glow of confirmation bias. Enjoy!

'Nuclear Hotseat' With Journalist:Libbe HaLevy. Review Written by Leslie Poplawski

I almost never miss Libbe HaLevy's 'Nuclear Hotseat'. Libbe's broadcast is presented in a manner which is comprehensible to ordinary people like me. Libbe even manages to bring a bit of humor, at times, making it interesting and never, ever, boring. Libbe HaLevy interviews nuclear physicists, physicians, people who have had extensive experience within the industry and many, many other experts. The information from her newscast educates, informs and is uncensored. A distinctive difference from most newscasts, that may be pressured by governments & the industries to broadcast little to nothing, regarding what is newsworthy within the nuclear energy and weapons industries. And there is much. Also I have been educated on many historical issues regarding the history of nuclear energy, weapons, wars, testing, waste and so forth. I am extremely grateful to Libbe and those she has interviewed, so that I (and others) finally, have the opportunity to learn about this subject in a manner that can hold my attention and that I can comprehended as well.
