This week, Aaron tells us about nuclear-powered cars, trains, and planes, a weird fad in the 50s and 60s. They might seem like bad ideas, and they are! Also submarines, which turn out to be pretty good ideas.
NOTES / DON'T @ US:
- There's about 10 minutes of solid facts before Dan the Idiot takes us on nuclear-powered tangents for an hour. The conversation kept derailing. Hey, that’s a train joke! Huzzah!
- The origin of the "slap a chicken real hard to cook it" thing seems to be this Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/aqk9la/if_kinetic_energy_is_converted_into_thermal/
- The Ink Spots were a phenomenal vocal band of the 30s and 40s. Here's the song Aaron was talking about from Fallout at the beginning, "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l6vqPUM_FE
- Sorry we kept knocking into the mics while we talked. We're just so CA-RAZY and out of control! Whoaaaa!!!!!
