In this first episode of 2010, Shawn and Jonathan discuss the two times
in history when the world has come closest to nuclear war: The Cuban Missile Crisis and Able Archer.
Topics include the hows and whys, as well as an explanation of how
these close-calls helped to mold our current safeguards against
something like this happening again.
