The Nuclear Option with Dr. Jeffrey King

Join Kosta and his guest: Dr. Jeffrey King, Director of Nuclear Engineering at Tennessee Tech University. In this episode: The word nuclear carries a certain gravity - no pun intended. Nuclear bomb, nuclear winter, the nuclear option: when we go nuclear, there’s no going back. When you hear the word nuclear what does it mean to you? Should we be afraid of nuclear energy? What will it take to undo the decades of fear and skepticism around all things nuclear? You’re the new director of TTU’s Nuclear Engineering program and quite frankly, this is the answer to all my prayers of the past decade. If the Upper Cumberland can become a hub of nuclear industry, it’d change everything. How will your program help to advance our community economically and environmentally?
