Descripción

In today’s episode, I got to talk about something near and dear to my heart (nuclear waste reprocessing) with Carl Perez [https://www.linkedin.com/in/carl-perez-74726622/] of Exodys Energy, a nuclear waste reprocessing company. Carl is a wealth of knowledge, as you’ll hear in the episode. We discuss the basics of waste reprocessing, the history of the industry, what makes Exodys stand out, and why getting waste reprocessing right will change the world. Check out Exodys here.

Can I Be Fusionpilled? ft. Andrew Holland (Fusion Industry Association)

I'll admit, I'm a bit of a fusion skeptic. But! There are exciting things happening in the fusion industry these days. So, I brought Andrew Holland [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-holland-39240911/], CEO of the Fusion Industry Association [https://www.fusionindustryassociation.org/], to talk to me about why things are looking up for fission's avant-garde cousin. Andrew's candor, insight, and enthusiasm made him a great guest. I had questions about everything from break-even hurdles to robotics and he handled it all with aplomb. I came away from this episode convinced that regardless of how near or far away commercial fusion may be, America should invest in R&D to try and crack it: the tech is too cool and the lessons we'll learn along the way too valuable.

Perpetuating the Nuclear Lifecycle Ft. Ken Rueter (UCOR)

One of the best parts of running this podcast is the chance to learn about aspects of the nuclear industry I know little about. Today’s guest, the President and CEO of United Clean Up Oak Ridge, taught me all about remediating nuclear sites. UCOR, the DOE’s contractor for the Oak Ridge Reservation, boasts an impressive suite of expertise and logistical acumen dedicated to turning over former Manhattan Project sites for civilian and government use. Ken broke down the steps of remediation and the heavy machinery needed (including robots!) to deliver on these projects. I really appreciated the beauty of his vision: remediating Manhattan project sites to spur the nuclear renaissance.   This episode brought out the little kid in me. A huge thank you to Ken for making the time for our discussion.   You can learn more about UCOR here [https://ucor.com/)].
