A nuclear war would be unlike any conflict in human history—fast, devastating, and potentially world-changing within hours.

In this episode, we explore how the United States prepares for the possibility of nuclear conflict, from early warning systems and missile defense networks to military strategy, command structures, and continuity-of-government plans.

We examine the technology, the strategy, and the terrifying realities behind nuclear deterrence in the modern world—along with the global consequences such a war could unleash.

Because in the nuclear age…
every second matters.
