I totally agree with Max Kennedy, it's super worrying to see the president being more focused on social media than actual diplomacy . I mean, come on, when you're dealing with something as serious as nuclear war, can't they put aside their ego for once? The fact that they're not taking a thoughtful approach is really scary, and it's not just about the US politics, it's about global stability . I wish more leaders could learn from the past and take a more level-headed approach to crisis management
I'm thinking, what's with the podcast now? Six decades on and we're still making a dollar off some old drama. Can't they just leave it alone? The whole thing was a mess, if you ask me. A bunch of hot-headed leaders playing chicken over nuclear war... Not exactly the best role models for today's youth. And what's with Max Kennedy's critique of US politics now? That's like him trying to lecture his own dad's legacy . The crisis was a big deal, I get it. But let's not forget that it was also some pretty clever diplomacy by both sides. Maybe instead of tearing apart today's leaders, we should be learning from their successes (and failures).
OMG what a crazy time 13 days could've been so devastating I feel like we're still living with the consequences of our leaders back then, like how it's still easy to get caught up in drama and not think about the bigger picture It's wild that Nina and Max are working together to share their family's story, gives me hope for a more nuanced understanding of history
