338 - Three Mile Island Nuclear Disaster
Early in the morning of March 28th, 1979, equipment failures and a stuck open relief valve prevented the removal of heat from Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island Unit 2 nuclear reactor’s core - an essential function that prevents reactor damage. And within hours, it seemed like things were on the brink of a catastrophic nuclear crisis. In the end, a true crisis would be averted... kind of. While the reactor's partial meltdown did NOT kill anyone... the media coverage of it DID nearly kill America's nuclear energy industry. Was that reaction justified? Now they we understand what really happened, should we now pick up where we left off with nuclear plant production in the 1970s?

Executive Hors d'Oeuvres | 01.27.21
This week we examine the first few days of Joe Biden’s presidency, and the high volume of executive orders it has produced.
In a recent press statement, the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists has argued that we are closer to midnight on the doomsday clock than at any time since 1947. Meanwhile, as the United States continues to feel the ideological aftershocks of the tumult that ensued during the transition between administrations, the Department of Homeland Security has issued a new alert warning about future unrest and potential terrorism… but their concern seems to extend far beyond any single particular ideological group.
Then turning our attention to presidential administrations past and present, we look at Trump’s record of “draining the swamp” compared with his final days in office, the pardons he issued (and chose not to issue, as with the case of Julian Assange), and his choice in revoking his own executive order on ethics. This, contrasted with President Biden’s first days in office, and the unprecedented number of executive orders it has seen. While many view it as a proportional response to the last administration, do Biden’s executive orders also represent the potential for concern?

Ep 76: Doomsday Clock: I'm Just a Recton Who Can See the Strings.
"Doomsday Clock" is a DC comic series that brings characters from Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' classic, "Watchmen," to the universe of Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman. Justin, Jacob and Mitchell question the premise and examine the book's goal of righting DC's reboot wrongs. They also discuss an article which asks if the return of the JSA and Golden-Age characters can fix the cynical DCU.
Originally aired on CJRU 1280 AM in Toronto. Produced by Justin Chandler.
