Can a Nuclear Bomb Power a City? | 17

July 02, 2025

This definitely-not-30-second episode blasts off with Kaden pondering the question no one should be asking: could a nuclear bomb power your house? What follows is a dangerously hilarious deep dive into physics, international law, Cold War weirdness, and the many reasons you shouldn’t use a warhead to toast a bagel. From overripe atomic tomatoes (both split and smooshed) to radioactive gas and Bond villain energy plans, Kaden walks a razor-thin line between educational and “probably flagged by a few agencies.” Along the way, you’ll encounter glowing squirrels, cursed binders, and the eternal truth that physics doesn’t negotiate. Whether you’re dreaming of mushroom cloud microwaves or just wondering what separates a reactor from a doomsday device, this episode serves up big energy, bigger jokes, and one crucial takeaway: if your energy solution ends with cratered neighborhoods and international manhunts, maybe try wind turbines instead.
