Published: Sept. 13, 2019, 10 a.m.

In the Titans of Nuclear Chernobyl podcast series, we sat down with experts in the field of nuclear energy to take a dive into the HBO television series "Chernobyl".

In episode three, we talk with Robert Gale who discusses:

(1) Traveling to Moscow to treat Chernobyl accident victims and volunteering his expertise in bone marrow transplants

(2) Writing a critique of the inaccuracies found in HBO’s Chernobyl series

(3) An inaccuracy in portraying the victims as being radioactive when the victims posed no threat to the physicians

(4) Chernobyl was an unfortunate accident that should not have happened and should not reflect poorly on nuclear power
