In this episode Destin heads to TVA’s Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant to get an up-close look at how a reactor is refueled—complete with inside access, safety walk-downs and a fascinating tour of one of America’s biggest power stations. Along the way he breaks down the mechanics, the safety protocols and what it takes to keep a nuclear generator humming.
