Description

Nuclear bombs might not even work—and that’s part of the strategy. Greg Fish joins the show to explain how today's nuclear powers rely on computer models, not test detonations, to verify their arsenals. The science is sound, but the politics? Still terrifying.

With tensions flaring and missile launches grabbing headlines, Fish breaks down why some nukes may be duds, how radioactive decay can neutralize bombs over time, and why Russia might be shouting louder than it can shoot. This episode connects Cold War history, cutting-edge simulation tech, and a deeply personal story from Greg’s own childhood near a Soviet missile factory.
