Time for an ITWF field trip so we scraped together all our podcast earnings and bought two tickets to “Oppenheimer,” and while we suck as movie reviewers we more than make up for it in enthusiasm!
After which we segue into some light-hearted topics such as, um, the necessity of Hiroshima & Nagasaki, the madness of Mutually Assured Destruction, the number of nukes currently locked and cocked and waiting to annihilate us, and those 'near misses' we keep having!
Dr Bruce confesses to an unhealthy fixation with visiting intercontinental ballistic missile silos and we try to rescue things with a happy (and true!) story of the Russian who saved the world.
“Where’s the doomsday clock set to?” Ten seconds closer to midnight, after they hear our podcast!
And for the record, when we're doing real work and not podcasting, you'll find Dr Bruce, The Global Futurist presenting here and PJ applying his digital marketing genius here. Enjoy!
