About this listen

Unfortunately, Oppenheimer has more atomic energy than Kenergy. We analyse the role of women in Oppenheimer (or lack thereof). The head of the Atomic Heritage Foundation, Cindy Kelly, tells us about all the real women who worked on the Manhattan project but aren’t in the film. Why does a film about atomic bombs show Florence Pugh’s boobs but not Japan? Does Barbie deserve a Nobel Prize for her contribution to revitalising international interest in the history of quantum physics research? We discuss this in a logical chronological order that will make sense to people other than Christopher Nolan.
