  • 1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity
    Jan 29 2026
    Nuclear power could save the planet — so why are we terrified of it? Here, Rad Future author Isabelle Boemeke breaks down the science behind the stigma.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1277What We Discuss with Isabelle Boemeke:Nuclear energy is the cleanest major power source available — producing no greenhouse gas emissions or particulate matter during electricity generation — yet public perception remains trapped in Cold War-era fears and Hollywood disaster imagery rather than modern scientific reality.The math on safety is staggering: fossil fuels cause roughly four million premature deaths annually from air pollution, while even the most generous estimates attribute around 4,000 deaths to history's worst nuclear accident at Chernobyl — meaning you'd need 200 Chernobyls every year for nuclear to match fossil fuel fatalities.Nuclear fuel is approximately one million times more energy dense than coal — a gummy bear-sized pellet of uranium contains the same energy as 2,000 pounds of coal — which translates to dramatically less mining, less land use, and a lifetime of personal energy consumption producing only a soda can's worth of spent fuel.Germany's post-Fukushima decision to phase out nuclear power backfired spectacularly, leaving the country dependent on Russian gas (effectively funding the Ukraine war), while China's critiques of Fukushima's tritium release were pure theater — their own nuclear plants routinely emit more tritiated water during normal operations.The infrastructure for a nuclear transition already exists — coal plants share nearly identical turbine and cooling systems with nuclear facilities, meaning workers can be retrained and sites repurposed, creating jobs in communities devastated by fossil fuel shutdowns while building genuine energy independence.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

  • 1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity
    Jan 27 2026
    Why do we rubberneck accidents and binge true crime? Behavioral scientist Coltan Scrivner explains the surprising psychology behind our morbid curiosity.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1276What We Discuss with Coltan Scrivner:Morbid curiosity isn't a character flaw — it's an evolutionary feature. The same instinct that makes us rubberneck at accidents helped our ancestors learn about threats without becoming victims themselves. It's your brain's built-in threat-assessment system, gathering intel from a safe distance.Horror movies work because of a specific formula: an overwhelmingly powerful villain versus a vulnerable protagonist. That imbalance — think Pennywise hunting kids or Jason stalking camp counselors — triggers our threat-detection systems in ways action films simply can't replicate.True crime's massive female audience isn't random. Women face threats primarily from people they know, so their curiosity focuses on spotting danger signals and understanding how predators operate. Men, who historically face violence from strangers, gravitate toward watching combat simulations like UFC.Decades of research and millions of dollars confirm: violent video games don't create violent people. The Mortal Kombat moral panic of the nineties produced the ESRB rating system — but the generation raised on those pixelated fatalities turned out just fine.Engaging with scary play — whether horror films, spooky games, or even childhood tag — actually builds emotional resilience. Kids who experience controlled fear learn to regulate anxiety, giving them psychological tools to handle real-world stress as adults. So don't skip the haunted house.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

How I found Jordan, I do not know. But I am so glad that I did. He is one of the best interviewers I have ever heard and his guests are always top-notch and extremely interesting. His easy conversational style, knowledge of his guest's area of expertise make EVERY podcast better than the next. If asked which is my favorite, my answer is ALL OF THEM.

One of the best!

I've been a long time listener. I love the range of topics. Jordan and Gab are probably some of the few people on the planet that can have an actual qualitative, objective interview with anybody. Jordan is thorough and the conversations are always interesting...pick an episode and get addicted!

LOVE this podcast!

I listen to this show every day! There are so many different topics to choose from, and the feedback episodes further the variety even more. All interviewees are very intelligent, and Jordan interviews them in a way that allows them to tell their stories in thoughtful ways. The humor of Jordan and guests is authentic and lightens some of the darker topics in a respectful way. He is very neutral with his political views so as not to have the show lean any particular way. The show has introduced me to new topics and information that I share in day-to-day conversations.

Easygoing, Educational, and Entertaining
