Awesome Podcast

Perfect pieces were read, Julie. Again, due to being a superhobo, I'm looking forward to my copy. Only you should do the audible.

brain fodder for the nuclear obsessed

The Atomic Hobo podcast clearly isn't for everyone. Most people are reticent to even THINK about nuclear war, let alone soak in the subject matter. People tend to believe the risk of nuclear conflict has diminished since the end of the Cold War. But as the nuclear game is being played with more and more decks as time goes on, the chance of a nuclear exchange increases, while the options for deterrence are reduced. The Atomic Hobo stares the demon directly in the eyes and asks the question, "What if?"

Great show for people interested in the subject or for morbid fun

Ever since a rerun of the Day After scared the heck out of me as a kid, I’ve been intensely interested in the subject. So, lots of great detail even for someone who already knows a lot.

In short, a podcast made with love and care about the worst thing that could possibly happen :)
