[EXPEDITION FUKUSHIMA]

In our first footage from my 10-day trip to Fukushima last April, we will discuss the recently approved plan to release contaminated water into the ocean in detail. We didn't plan on having the timing for the video and the news line up so well. Hopefully you will lear...

How do you write warnings about stored nuclear waste for people 10,000 years from now? A one-of-a-kind study in 1993 tried to figure that out. We've now taken some of those classic images and turne...

Hopefully you're not too sick of all the Oppenheimer media because our next nuclear story is the specifics of almost* setting the world on fire.

There are many videos on this out there, and there's even a line in the movie about it, but this will be our take on it -- a script adapted from m...

Inside a Working Nuclear Power Plant

Had an awesome visit at my first non-destroyed nuclear power plant! Super eager to help me, very kind, very cool.

Well, it wasn’t very cool because it was 100F and 60% humidity, but that CANNOT STOP THE SCIENCE.

Nuclear waste video in the next few weeks.

New [MERCH] Incoming!

THIS MAY BE MY FAVORITE MERCH DESIGN EVER. 

Decades ago, a report trying to address the problem of long-term nuclear waste storage came up with some designs and warnings that were meant to be understandable -- and ominous on purpose -- for at least 10,000 years.

I decided to take...

[THE FACILITY] is Everywhere.

It's like a TARDIS with more production value and less spiked hair and trench coats.

Changing my perspective

I know we talk about nuclear disasters and weapons a lot on this channel, but none of it really feels "real" until you see horrible aftermaths in person.

The bombing memorial in Hiroshima was harrowing, to say the least.

These are two more stills from our upcoming [HLH] about the city...

While in Hiroshima...

I was actually interviewed by the local news. They were asking foreigners what they thought about the (then) upcoming G20 in their city.

It was a broadcast segment, so no video of the interview exists (I think), but it was definitely an experience to speak about what I was doing to a report...

From our next [HALF-LIFE HISTORY]

After visiting Fukushima, I traveled to Hiroshima, to see the site of the world's first offensive atomic bomb blast. It's an amazing city.

Before going there, many asked me why, if the city was nuked, was it still there? Why isn't Hiroshima radioactive, and therefore, abandoned?
