Until the waste problem is solved nuclear power remains a relatively short period of energy in exchange for a forever period of deadly waste storage. Surprisingly, Oliver and Joe gloss over the 'elephant' in the room.
Joe: you should chat with Robert Zubrin — he was a nuclear engineer and wrote "The Case for Nukes" (2023). Zubrin is the founder of the Mars Society (Elon Musk was a board member) and his book "The Case for Mars" inspired Elon to set Mars as a goal (Starship uses methane fuel which Zubrin advocates since it can be synthesized on Mars).
Kyle Hill also is a good support er of nuclear energy
