Can We Nuke a Hurricane?
Episode description
This week we explore, "Can we nuke a hurricane?" According to Trump, he never suggested that we nuke a hurricane to disrupt its course. But knowing him, he totally did... So we sat down to figure out if that would do anything and other attempts at controlling the weather throughout history. There's no time like the present to support us on Patreon!
