John Wheeler's new weekly podcast – This week in nuclear

ByRod Adams

John Wheeler started a weekly podcast titled “This Week In Nuclear” on 27 December 2005. I really enjoyed the first two episodes and immediately added it to my growing list of podcast subscriptions. John’s updates are going to add value and enjoyment to my long commute.

Thanks to Eric McErlain at NEI Nuclear Notes and his post titled This week in nuclear for the link.

Though I have been listening to podcasts for about 9 months, I had never heard of the service that John is using – Podomatic.com. Here is their tag line:
