Today’s guest comes to us via a listener request. Journalist Mike Conley is the co-author (with Tim Maloney) of the book Earth is a Nuclear Planet. Fascinated by science since he was a child, Mike was drawn to the ingenuity, simplicity and safety of the Molten Salt Reactor. To learn more, he became a member of the Thorium Energy Alliance, a close-knit community of MSR advocates. His approach to the brainiacs he’s met through the TEA is simple: If they explain their technology to him, he’ll explain it to the world. Or in this case, to our listeners. We’ll also hear what inspired him to write this book and what is coming up next for those looking to learn more about nuclear power.
