When I use nicotine pouches, I don't want something that falls flat after 10 minutes. And that's why I love Lucy Breakers. It's already a kick-ass flavor, but then they put a little capsule inside. You pop it and it refreshes the pouch and hydration all over again. Once you try it, there's really no going back to the other stuff. Lucy Breakers is perfect for me because I don't have to keep popping one in every time the flavor wears off. It's really useful during long podcast because it doesn't interrupt the flow. Sometimes I bite down when it's fresh for a wake-up punch of flavor. Lately, I've been trying the mango mint flavor, but my ultimate favorite is that 4 milligram espresso, baby. Lucy uses 100% pure nicotine and it's tobacco-free. If you're like me and

trip. You have a fascinating backstory. So you worked at a nuclear base called Malmstrom in the 60s, is that right?

1:29.4

That's right.

1:30.4

And why don't you explain what your job was there at that nuclear base?

1:37.5

Okay, my job, I was trained as a nuclear launch, well, a missile launch officer. It turned out to be,

1:46.3

of course, nuclear weapons. And at Malmstrom at that time, we had the Minuteman 1. Now it's,

1:54.9

I think, the Minuteman 3, but Malmstrom is still operating as a strategic missile base.

2:01.6

Today it is.

2:02.9

Today, yes.

2:04.2

And what specifically was your job description there?

2:08.6

So basically we were trained to monitor and launch missiles, if given the order, of course, and prepare for, you know,

2:31.5

nuclear war, basically.

2:34.7

Yeah.

2:42.1

What sort of psychological evaluations do you have to go through to have your hands on the nuclear button or have control over these nuclear weapons?

2:46.8

You know, I don't think I'm the right guy to answer that.

2:49.8

I know we were evaluated on a regular basis as to, you know, were we in the right, I don't know how to put it, a frame of mind or disposition to have that responsibility.
