It’s Opening day for Able Archer 83. The Soviets have front row seats to NATO’s autumn military exercises. Tens of thousands of soldiers are playing pretend war in West Germany. The Soviets are NOT enjoying the show. And then… the war game actors begin ‘launching’ nukes. Holy sh*tballs, this is not looking good. The spies try to thwart disaster, and one man is faced with a cataclysmic decision.

S1E5: A Script for Nuclear War

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.
