XHM #676 - "Plutonium poetry battered our hearts" (2023 December 11)

6:59pm - 9:02pm

For the 5th night of Hanukkah, we pay tribute to the physicist J Robert Oppenheimer, the subject of the 2023 Christopher Nolan film about the creation of the atom bomb. The score by Ludwig Göransson is starting to receive acclaim, so amongst that profile, we'll ease into nuclear themes and recapping the year about to end.
