Special 12th Anniversary Look Back over the Past Year of Nuclear Hotseat
A tongue-in-cheek look at some of the “highlights” from Nuclear Hotseat’s 12th year, with excerpts that never made it into the program that focus on:
- How I gently guide guests into giving the best interview possible.
- Maintaining a peaceful environment for each interview.
- How I am sometimes overwhelmed by what I’ve just learned from a guest.
- Examples of the meticulous preparation I always take that is necessary to creating a smoothly running interview.
- Times when my inspired-in-the-moment insights burst forth, in all their disorganized glory.
- And then there are my carefully researched talking points.
All of which go into making Nuclear Hotseat a weekly informational grab-bag of nuclear information, insights, humor <!>, and actions we can take. It’s certainly better than sitting out Armageddon!
