On this episode of The Zach Show, Jim Mahaffey and Zach discuss how Jim became fascinated with nuclear history, the most infamous atomic weapons smuggler of all time, the high-risk environment of The Manhattan Project, what really went wrong at Chornobyl, a perfect explanation of what happened at Roswell, Cold Fusion, whether a nuclear powered Iron Man suit would actually be feasible, the connection between UFOs and nukes, and more.

Guest bio: James Mahaffey is a nuclear scientist, engineer, and historian. He is the author of many books on nuclear history, most notably 'Atomic Accidents' and 'Atomic Adventures.' During a 25-year career at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), he directed or worked on projects for the U. S. Defense Nuclear Agency, the U. S. National Ground Intelligence Center, the U. S. Air Force Air Logistics Center, Georgia Power Company, and other government and private industrial organizations, in such areas as nuclear power, non-linear analysis, digital systems design, and cold fusion.
