NH #653: Annual SPECIAL - NUMNUTZ OF THE YEAR Award, 2023!

The ultimate in nuclear numnutzery – the atomic/nuclear/hydrogen bomb – brought to you by the winner(s) of the annual Nuclear Hotseat Numnutz of the Year for 2023!

SPECIAL – Annual NUMNUTZ OF THE YEAR Award, 2023!

As regular listeners to the show will know, Nuclear Hotseat’s Numnutz of the Week is a regular feature that highlights the absurdity, stupidity, short-sightedness, and greed of the nuclear industry. Not necessarily the blatant headine insanity of the big stories, but smaller bits that assail our senses and are so crazy they’re… well, numnutz. This compilation from the past year’s NOTW features culminates in awarding the highly coveted Numnutz of the Year, 2023 – followed by a eulogy/elegy written and sung by Tom Lehrer which explains concisely – and in perfect rhyme – exactly what we’re facing. A way to wish you a peaceful, healthy, happy, nuke-free 2024 and beyond!
