5m audio from my @npr interview for Here & Now on the N Korea-S Korea summit, complete with momentary desperate struggle to remember the phrase guard "post." I finally blurted out "guard tower." Listen to my live on-air travails at... wbur.org/hereandnow/201…

My @npr interview for Here & Now on Pres' UN speech. Better than last year but odd moments. No mention of Russia or climate. Says will not be held hostage by "so-called experts." Full disclosure: I currently hold no hostages that aware of but will check wbur.org/hereandnow/201…

Another reason it’s great to be at MIT. Flu shot day. Line for 2 blocks and i have 30 min. I walk up to the line and ask someone how long they have been in line since starting at back. “10 min and 13 seconds” as he flashes timer on his phone. Perfect.

Stuck in crowded airport with a flight delay. Playing Eno's calming Music for Airports, which I have listened to many times. But never in an airport.

My op ed for CNN is up. Trump, Iran, and the Bomb. cnn.com/2019/07/11/opi…

China has been arbitrarily detaining our colleague #MichaelKovrig for 356 days. Michael is a Canadian national. He has yet to see a lawyer or his family. Join our call to #FreeMichaelKovrig ➔ bit.ly/FreeKovrig

"Trump's claim blaming the nuclear accord for Iranian aggression rather than his withdrawal from it is 'almost an inverted reality,' said Jim Walsh (Jim Walsh) of the MIT Security Studies Program (MIT SSP) and an expert on nuclear issues." bit.ly/WHFactCheck

Am mourning today the untimely passing of my colleague Marty Malin, executive director of Belfer Center Belfer's Managing the Atom project. A smart, unselfish, dedicated professional who devoted his career to making a safer world. A pretty good guitarist too. We'll miss him.

Get ready Red Carpet. The folks at the Hollywood, Health, and Society at USC asked me to do a humorous short video on nuclear weapons for a series called Getting Bombed. You can find my clip here... youtube.com/watch?v=tFu9wj… And guess what.....? 1/2 Chris Reinacher, Kate Folb ☮️

Well, it was just nominated as a finalist (1 of 3) in the Raw Science Film Festival in the category of Best Educational Media. Re Raw Science Film Festival, see: vimeo.com/367661953 I'm thinking pink tux. 2/2

My take on what's up with N Korea. Potential leadership transition (?) in a nuc weapons state with cratering economy, internat sanctions, and covid. Also something DT did right in this regard. wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

Oh Kim Jong Un. You are such a prankster. :)

My latest interview for NPR: US to abandon Open Skies Treaty, Chinese move Hong Kong, and a new chief of intelligence. It's not a feel good interview, OK. :) wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

I can't believe it. Terrible news. We've taken a lot of punches this year, and now this. Very tough. Very, very tough.

My thoughts on today's anniversary and remembering Bruce Blair, Janne Nolan, Marty Malin. #Hiroshima75 #HiroshimaDay wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

JOB: Social media studs: Jim Walsh is hiring for a great new project that will tell the story of nukes and nuclear threats in riveting new ways. PT-paid work; do it from anywhere.

Me on the BBC talking Israel bombing Iran nuclear facilities. drive.google.com/file/d/1D8VvLD…

What happens after US bombing? Iran capability remains. No military solution.

Talking Iran nuclear capability on BBC: it's not what you think.

Wolf Blitzer asking me about "lone wolf" attacks. If you watch closely you can see me debating whether to make a joke. I demurred.
