Have you ever wondered how nuclear weapons are connected to fat? I have not. Not once in my life. But I guess someone has, because apparently there is a documentary about it. In our second installment where we watch a documentary together and discuss it afterwards, we watched the Nukes Episode of the Connected show on Netflix. The premise of the show is to talk about how seemingly unrelated things are all connected to each other, and is hosted by this really cool, very whimsical dude from NPR named Latif Nasser. He goes to the site of the very first nuclear test (The Trinity Site) and takes you on a journey through many of the various scientific breakthroughs that have stemmed from those nuclear tests, and we discuss which of those we thought were most interesting, along with some commentary on our reaction to how America treated Harry Truman causing mass death during Hiroshima vs. how we are reacting to Trump's handling of the Covid-19 pandemic now, the moral implications of nukes, and how it is crazy that scientists are constantly doing things to the planet where we have no idea what the outcomes on the planet and future generations of humans will be, just like when we started testing nukes that pumped out literal tons of radioactive material into the atmosphere.
