“You can’t leave plutonium by a glacier feeding into the Ganges!” But that’s exactly what the CIA did. Back in 1965. This special report took years of research and interviews. It has been discussed at the highest levels of the U.S. and Indian governments. Details were found in a trove of papers in a garage in Montana. We have a .pdf of the full report on our website.
I will be hosting AND producing the show on Sunday. Next week, Dec. 21, will be our last show of 2025.
We might also review the week’s news.
This Sunday’s show is Episode 381. We are celebrating our 10th year producing the #NYTReadalong.
