The He-man action figures Jim was talking about are called Stinkor and Moss Man, both came with "added scents"
Absolutely loved this episode. I've learnt so much & have to watch it again.! Great show from you all. You really compliment each other. Bless 👍
Another GREAT episode!
Three-mile Island basically stopped the advancement of nuclear power in the US. If at the first sign of trouble everyone at the three-mile Island facility had got up and walked out to their cars and went home the plant would have shut down automatically and safely. There were some mechanical failures, but the near tragedy was completely man caused. In the mid 70's I worked in a metal fabrication plant that was building nuclear reactor containment vessels. They were built to withstand a nuclear bomb. (From the outside not the inside) They were about 3" of solid steel with 3' of reinforced concrete covering it all.
I was REALLY expecting the 'He-Man' thing to be a helium reference :(
Another great episode - thank you Kelly, Jack, Forrest and... the other fella... what's his name?
Jeff jimmeries I think
Tim Himmfries I believe.
Louis
what happened to luis?
how deep would the end zone be?
That banana rant was so funny!!!! Made my day!
Awesome show, great guest and Jeff in good forn 😂
It was the Brittish who conducted tests in the Australian outback, the French used Moruroa Atoll, basically in the middle of the Pacific ocean.
This guy should be part of the nuclear marketing campaign.
I've always been against nuclear power, without knowing the first thing about it, this has genuinely changed my opinion!
Well done, guys! I love the show; been watching it from the beginning. This was especially great.
Jim HUGE fan of your comedy. Listening to the dates I immediately booked for Taipei, had to jump through loops to secure plane tickets to fly from Shanghai to Taipei as flights are limited now to just one a week. This will be the first time I traveled outside China in over three years since covid. The original Din Tai Fung is indeed the best! I had it in over a dozen cities the original Taipei one is indeed the best I've eaten there close to 40 years before I got me first teeth. Can't wait to see the show man.
Yeehaw the gang are back - greetings from OZ.
Just saw you guys in Columbus! Phenomenal! Jim you have honed in on your craft and by far one of the Elites...always loved ya but found a new perspective on what a pro you truly are! Loved your openers too...beyond worth every penny and more
THANK YOU!
Where's Luis Wooden-car?
The wooden car, to the suprise of no one, burst into flames soooo.... dead?
I think Arnie is adorable, you can't get enough of a cute dog. I say let him do what he wants and interact with the guests.
I remember reading how with Fukushima, old men volunteered to go in and shut it down. That was so sad.
However, look around PA/westchester and tell me there were no effects 😹Just kidding! Love PA!
Watched a documentary on the Russians that "volunteered" to go in and try to cover the elephants foot in Chernobyl under the agreement that their families would receive a chunk of change after they died from doing it. That's a love of family before anything else right there.
Absolutely fascinating. I can't believe how wrong I was on the subject. I'm going to build a nuclear powered Swedish sweat lodge in the back garden now. X
This is an amazing episode, hilarious and incredibly insightful. I've always loved nuclear power and topics. Thanks Jim and Cast 👍
In Europe we think Nashville is just for country music
He-Man , Brave Starr, Saber Rider and Galaxy Rangers ..Best Ever!!
Very good episode. Learnt a thing or 2
Jim said, they always talk about the size in terms of stadiums. Had a laugh. Then the expert says all the waste from the world can be stored in a single football end zone. Jim might be a genius.
That's a common misleading argument. You can store any amount of any material in a football field end zone. It's just a matter of how high your are going to stack it... Yearly high-radioactive nuclear waste worldwide is estimated at around 12.000 tons. Which is usually stored in concrete-filled drum barrels the size of an oil-barrel (400 litres?). Now imagine 12.000 tons of those (minus the concrete) on a football field, let alone only in the end zone. Per year. And this excludes the mid- and low-radiation waste, which is significantly higher. I'm not against nucelar power, but those simple images by experts and advocats create a disturbed view to the public of the challanges this technologies is putting on us and further generations.
Hello hello anyone else having a great day!
Have a great day!
Yall have a great day! 👍 ✌️ ima try now! Lol
Or goodnight 👍🇦🇺
You bet - cheers
Jack, wise beyond his years as always. “Just move on…”.
The Turkish absolutely were NEVER nuclear pioneers, BUT we'll still take the credit for it !! Thanks, Jim !!
Less power. More gardening.
Where will u be in Bali in December ???.. I live in Bali..I'd love to see you♥️
mate, please give us more clarity on possible Spain venue.
There’s lots of uranium near where I grew up. We did training videos and got to go down the mines. The rocks nearby would kinda glow at night.
In the 50s there was a toy called the Gilbert u 238 atomic energy laboratory where you got could do real nuclear reactions with radioactive material
When the diamond episode finally drops, Jim is going to be so mad
That's gotta be the most succinct explanation of what Nuclear fusion is! The Sun is massive and has a huge gravitational field, so we're trying to replicate that by using magnetic fields or lasers etc. (I've paraphrased obviously) Great job explaining that to dumbasses like me!
Nuclear power plants don't emit steam from those stacks, those are cooling towers and it's just condensate from the hot air
You just described steam
@@kattmazi1934 If u know nothing of steam then yes
@@sdmoparmaninsd6713 just as much as you, broseph
@@kattmazi1934 doubt that broski
@@sdmoparmaninsd6713 you should eat grass
re RITGs pacemakers used to be powered by tiny RITGs, so scale isn't a problem. They do have really pathetic power output for the size, though...
Jim Jeffries! I fucken love your content mate! The comedy you have on pandora cracks me up at work.
Jack needs a camera on him
As the representative for Portsmouth, fair comment, we accept your apology 😁
"I've never seen fly tape in my life"
Well well well. Someone apparently came from a "good family" with "money" and "two parents" with "jobs" Pshh 😂😅
It's not as fun when jim is good at reading the adverts, messing up and not caring kept me listening through them. Though kelly and jack helping to pronounce things was amusing
No Luis and Kelly's not high... I had to double check I had the right podcast!
I loved living in busy StKilda. Till I was 35 or over. After that man…..not the place to live.
Hi guys, love ya work 👍
More people = need for more mining.
You should do one with Kevin bloody Wilson 2 ausie greats lol
I have uranium glass
Wikipedia is more trustworthy then Jim
Ask him about the Radium girls. Poor women where killed by the flurecent paint
Yes, but those glowing lips were truly unique.
Heres a question, if one of them gave a "mouth hug" to a close friend how screwed was the second party???
@@johnc.2876 or could your cock Fall off after getting a blowjob? Or a few. But yeah should be Problem if it means repeated exposure
I clicked on the most r-worded thumbnail I could find
Me eating a banana every morning for the last 5 years
Enjoy your colon cancer lad!!
@@johnc.2876 you have a lower risk of colon cancer if you eat bananas lol
@@Berry_Best What!?!?! My meat pie, MSG preservatives, and all brown liquor diet is less healthy than a nanner.
@@johnc.2876 wut
Tritium is the issue with nuclear power. Tritium is not the same as Organically bound Tritium.
Hey Jim, is that the same house legit was shot in?
this is jack's house
Beautiful eyes today, Kelly!😍😎
The Beatles.
Let's go nuclear! Maybe keep the plants away from the coast or fault lines. I don't know. Good night Australia.
Does Jack break cameras? Because he such a good looking young man. Get a camera on him.
is that an air conditioning vent next to the door mail box? I find myself staring at it trying to figure out what is it very episode.
Looks like its hinged though? Possibly a milk, ice etc delivery door from way back when?
@@WKRP187 possibly, looks a bit small for that I think
I live in Georgia [the state, not the country, Jim]. Georgia Power is constructing the only new nuclear power plant in the country. It is almost a decade behind schedule & multiple $billions over budget. The reason they couldn't use a newer design for the plant is because the new designs haven't been given the nod. There's at least 3 different designs, but the nuclear regulatory commission prevents them from proving their designs at a scaled up version of their very small current experiments.
I don't know the projects current status, but they are building a 345MW Natrium Reactor in Wyoming right now.
I love it when a really large woman wears black every day for years and think it hides everything. It’s such a good look.
Kelly is looking good.
i was gonna say the same!..shes glowing today!
I guess being Sober has its advantages
Kelly always looks good, but today there's something different with her make up. I love her and I want to have her babies, and I don't even want babies.
Jim's looking way better. Just sayin.
Are we seeing the same person? Cuz she’s p much a troll all she’s missing is the bridge
Gamer tag?
I have worked in nuclear power for years, uranium boils water, every power making method boils water and uses the steam
Fun fact, more people die from solar and wind power than from nuclear power. Oil and gas is at the top though, very dangerous work.
More people die from walking down the street than domestic abuse, so let’s allow domestic abuse.
Didn’t realise I’d selected an hour + long infomercial by the Nuclear Industry.
Can you use facts to argue anything that was said?
Or are you just pouting because it didn't fit your narrative?
The 0-10 grading scale has long been established. Why does Forest have to say '10 being the best'? Isn't that how it always was?
1∶04∶00. Apparently about 89,000 metric tons of radioactive waste has accumulated over the years at commercial nuclear power plants throughout the entire U.S...but I don't work for the nuclear marketing industry. lol Note he said 'material', not waste...big difference.
He was clear on the fact that the material can be recycled and is not waste.
How about something on ventriloquists???
That's going to be the episode about perpetual virgins.
He said that one plant makes approximately a Volkswagen Beetle size amount of waste per year. If there are 440 plants in the world. How could 20 years of 440 beetles each year fit in one end zone? Did I miss something?
Yes that's definitely some fuzzy math on his part. Maybe he meant stacked on top of each other to the roof?? Lol🤷
Hahaha, you’re right, he never specified how high!
