    A Pod of Dynamite
    Nov 15 2025

    Jeffrey and Scott watched the new Kathryn Bigelow movie "House of Dynamite" and they both have opinions.

    The crew talks through both the artistic choices as well as the wonky details. "House of Dynamite" is an interesting take on missile defense and decisionmaking that doesn't quite commit enough to any philosophical or strategic camp, but ultimately may be the lens through which a lot of non-wonks view or interact with missile defenses, conceptually, as we move towards a potential major expansion of US missile defenses.

    We should do a watch party.

  • A Return to Nuclear Testing

    A Return to Nuclear Testing
    Nov 3 2025

    Donald Trump directed "the Department of War to start testing our
    Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis" with other countries. The
    Department of War doesn't test nuclear weapons, the Department of
    Energy does all the time in lots of different ways. Some people
    worried this meant a return to explosive testing, others seemed to
    think it was about delivery systems. Subsequent statements by the
    Vice President and the Secretary of Defense didn't clarify things.
    Aaron and Jeffrey sit down to try to make some sense of it all.

  • Pentagon Blocks Ukraine Strikes

    Pentagon Blocks Ukraine Strikes
    Sep 3 2025
    Alex Ward and others at the Wall Street Journal reported on the details of a Pentagon review process that has halted Ukraine's ability to conduct long-range strikes into Russia with ATACMs, Storm Shadow and other systems that need US targeting data. Jeffrey and Aaron talk about what we already knew, what we didn't, and what it all mean. Hint: Allies should stand up their own targeting capabilities.
