no not mine. just what i normally listen to at the gym at 445 am. i do enjoy it the most out of the chiefs podcasts I've heard so far. many of the football podcast guys cant unsubscribe from their own line of thought long enough to accept that maybe Andy and Veach know more than them and have acted based on the inside information they have.

They did nuclear tests near population centers in the 50’s on purpose to study the effects of radiation on its citizens.
But, our hands aren’t clean either. We gave syphillis to innocent black people involuntary, to study its effects on humans. Even when a cure was available. [Reply]

There are some radicals that believe the guy responsible for the radar array knew it was a failure and ordered the meltdown so the Russians would have to shut down the nearby radar and nobody would know that it was a remarkably expensive bust.
I think it's the sort of thing that Ukranians say when they're trying to say that the Russians would murder all of them for a hamburger if the offer was made... [Reply]

I'm no fan of communism or socialism, but the same thing could also happen in a completely capitalist environment. For somewhat similar reasons, usually due to uninformed dumb extroverted leaders. [Reply]

Were they ever found or was that simply the writers using some creative licencing? [Reply]
