A former Hollywood actor and a former Chairman of the KGB walk into a bar and... blow the whole thing up? In 1983, the decision to launch nukes lay in the hands of two men: Ronald Wilson Reagan and Yuri Andropov. Let's talk about how their teeny tiny… inferiority complexes set us on a path – right to the edge of a nuclear cliff.

S1E2: Will the Real Evil Empire Please Stand Up?

SNAFU with Ed Helms, America&rsquo;s favorite podcast about history&rsquo;s greatest screwups, returns for Season 4 with even more SNAFUs -&nbsp; one per episode, to be precise. And this time around, Ed ropes in a cavalcade of smart, hilarious guests to help unpack what these blunders, fiascos and faceplants say about who we are (spoiler: we&rsquo;re basically just toddlers with nukes).&nbsp; Think of it as part history lesson, part hangout pod, and part group therapy for humanity.
