This week on Talk World Radio we're talking about Nuclear energy with our guest Harvey “Sluggo” Wasserman. He is a past guest and a life-long activist who speaks, writes, and organizes widely on energy, the environment, U.S. and global history, drug war, election protection, and grassroots politics. He has taught at Capital University, Columbus State Community College, and Hampshire College. He has authored or co-authored 20 books, countless articles and speeches, two films, and a Grammy-winnning song, and hosts two radio shows, California Solartopia and the Green Power & Wellness Show. Harvey helped coined the phrase “No Nukes” in 1973, and his recent article at Counterpunch is called Nuclear Power’s Lethal, Larcenous End Game.

Talk Nation Radio: Ukraine and the Checkmating of the West

Following last week’s attack on Nice, France, the two Sam’s highlight some particularly awful comments made by Newt Gingrich, a guy once considered to be Donald Trump’s VP pick.

Also, the ACLU’s Kade Crockford joins in to breakdown a crucial federal court ruling that could limit how police use cell phone surveillance technology.

And later, author and activist David Swanson takes on the legality of President Obama’s war against the Islamic State, and what the American people have learned about 9/11 following the release of a classified annex from the official Congressional report on the attacks.

Broadcasted from the Radio Sputnik studios in Washington, DC.
