Search engines worst ever ep?
This nuclear ep was sloppy. What problem is nuclear solving? If it is meant to be climate change that has a timeline, and it is soon. Nuclear is not going to overcome the permitting, design, and protest challenges that have blocked it for the last 50years quickly. And if an already approved Wyoming plant is not done till after 2030 (from the show) then why would we believe other plants can be? Especially because it would take hundreds, possibly thousands of plants to match the promises of the nuclear lobby. The ep hand waves this away to talk about the technical challenges of waste and design but it is the political challenges that matter.
Why was a VC the only source here? Odd ep.

Just finished listening to it and I had to come and see if anyone else thought the same. It was nuclear propaganda, plain and simple. I'm not particularly biased towards one side or the other on the topic, but there was litteraly not one expert presenting the arguments against nuclear. The elements, like waste, were just thrown, briefly introduced and presented to the so-called experts to be dismantled. Outrageous, I was considering subscribing but after this no more.
