BIBLIOTECA SUBMERSA é a nova série de episódios do Podcast da Raphus Press, uma ironia bastante séria com o conceito de canônico e marginal, de popular e elitista, de aceito e não aceito, a partir das obras de autores que, aparentemente, tinham alguma influência (ou relevância) de certas obras ou autores no passado e que, hoje, parecem ausentes das livrarias, cadernos culturais, canais de vídeo na Internet. Nossa inspiração é Jorge Luis Borges e uma conhecida citação de Virginia Woolf: “Livros usados são selvagens, destituídos; surgem em grandes bandos de penas variadas e possuem certo encanto que falta aos volumes domesticados de uma biblioteca.” Episódio de hoje: Agora, eu me tornei a morte (“Nuclear War: A Scenario”, Annie Jacobsen) Obras citadas: “Nuclear War: A Scenario”, Annie Jacobsen (Dutton, 2024); “Brighter Than a Thousand Suns: a personal history of the atomic scientists”, Robert Jungk (Harcourt, 1986). O livro de Jacobsen foi traduzido pela Rocco como “Guerra nuclear: Um cenário”: https://www.amazon.com.br/Guerra-nuclear-cen%C3%A1rio-Annie-Jacobsen/dp/6555325496/ O curioso relatório de Thomas Sebeok, de título “Communication Measures to Bridge Ten Millennia”, está disponível neste link, após ter deixado a condição de “classified” ou sigiloso: https://www.osti.gov/biblio/6705990 Conheça “O Outro Lado” e apoie a campanha “late pledge”: https://www.catarse.me/outrolado_latepledge Mergulha na literatura ocultista e visionária “underground” na campanha “Constelações”: https://www.catarse.me/constelacoes01 Entre para a nossa sociedade, dedicada à bibliofilia maldita e ao culto de tenebrosos grimórios: o RES FICTA (solicitações via http://raphuspress.weebly.com/contact.html ).

Podcast : Conversations with Tyler (LS 65 · TOP 0.05% what is this? ) Episode : Annie Jacobsen on Nuclear War, Intelligence Operations, and Conspiracy Realities Pub date : 2025-08-06 Get Podcast Transcript → powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarization Annie Jacobsen has a favorite word for America's nuclear doctrine: madness. It's madness that any single person has six minutes to decide the fate of civilization, madness that we've built weapons capable of ending the world in 72 minutes, and madness that everything hangs by the thread of deterrence. But to Tyler, life is "a lot of different kinds of madness," and the real question is simply getting the least harmful form available to us. It's a conversation sparked by her latest book Nuclear War: A Scenario , which Tyler calls one of his favorites from last year—and which is compelling enough that Denis Villeneuve is turning it into a screenplay. Tyler and Annie explore whether we should be more afraid of nuclear weapons or if fear itself raises the risks, who should advise presidents during the six-minute decision window, whether moving toward disarmament makes us safer or more vulnerable, what Thomas Schelling really meant about nuclear war and rational actors, the probability that America would retaliate after a nuclear attack, the chances of intercepting a single incoming ICBM, why missile defense systems can't replicate Israel's Iron Dome success, how Pakistan-India nuclear tensions could escalate, why she's surprised domestic drone attacks haven't happened yet, her reporting on JFK assassination mysteries and deathbed phone calls, her views on UFOs and the dark human experiments at Area 51, what motivates intelligence community operators, her encounters with Uri Geller and CIA psychic research, what she's working on next, and more.

What if the most powerful secrets shaping our world were hidden in plain sight? Annie Jacobsen is America’s most fearless investigative journalist. A seven-time bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize finalist, she’s spent decades uncovering the truth behind the CIA, covert military operations, nuclear war planning, and the government’s deepest classified programs - from Area 51 to assassination missions you were never meant to know about. Annie pulls back the curtain on stories that challenge what we think we know about power, secrecy, and war. She shares what it’s like to earn the trust of the world’s most dangerous men - and why the truth is often stranger, and scarier, than fiction. You’ll learn: How Annie went from earning $0 as a writer to breaking into national security reporting The advice that changed her life — and how it led to bestselling investigations What it takes to gain the trust of CIA operatives and intelligence insiders Why “alpha individuals” survive — and what their psychology reveals about resilience How secrets stay buried despite being technically declassified Why U.S. ICBMs don’t have the range to hit North Korea without flying over Russia The chilling truth behind the 72-minute nuclear war scenario How a single miscommunication between the U.S. and Russia could trigger World War III Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to High Net Purpose 00:24 Meet Annie Jacobsen: Master of Government Secrets 02:45 Annie’s Purpose: Telling Astonishing True Stories 05:13 From Struggling Writer to National Security Reporter 09:31 Billy Waugh: The CIA’s Most Legendary Spy 16:31 Inside the Shadow World of Espionage 22:02 The Secrets Behind Intelligence and Covert Ops 25:49 The CIA’s First Hunt for Bin Laden 26:23 Clinton, Bin Laden, and the Mission That Didn’t Happen 27:59 Disguises, Deception & Espionage Tactics Revealed 29:05 From Field Reporting to Bestseller Author 29:53 The Lucky Break That Led to Area 51 30:58 Nuclear War Planning: Too Real to Ignore 36:56 NATO, Russia, and the Future of Global Security 42:12 Writing About Dangerous Truths: The Personal Risks 45:56 Staying Grounded in a World of High-Stakes Secrets 49:51 Final Words for Future Truth Tellers Hosted on Acast.

On episode 401, we are joined by New York Times Best-Selling author, Annie Jacobsen. With the term "psionics" circling the UFO world as of late, we look back at a book written by Jacobsen called, Phenomena: The Secret History of the U.S. Government's Investigations into Extrasensory Perception . While independent groups are now studying and attempting to use psychic abilities to "summon" UFOs, how did rival nations, during the end of World War 2 and through the Cold War, use similar abilities through various military and intelligence agencies? Why did they invest millions of dollars into classified programs to study mental telepathy, precognition, and extrasensory perception? Was it all for intelligence gathering and defense purposes? Or could there have been more otherworldly reasons as well? Find all of Annie Jacobsen's work at: https://anniejacobsen.com/ Please take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.

Send us Fan Mail Join Professor Jeffrey Sachs and award-winning journalist Annie Jacobsen as they discuss Jacobsen’s chilling and rigorous depiction of nuclear war in her groundbreaking book, Nuclear War: A Scenario . With meticulous research and interviews with military and political insiders, Jacobsen takes us through a riveting, heart-pounding, second-by-second scenario of a world-ending nuclear war. From the technological aspects of nuclear weapons and missile defense systems to the horrifying and total incapacity of modern society to survive a nuclear onslaught, Jacobsen depicts the razor-thin margin separating us from catastrophe. Together, they delve into the sobering realities behind nuclear war games, miscalculated missile strikes, and the relentless risks of omnicidal escalation that history and simulations reveal. They reflect on the lessons of Cold War diplomacy, near-miss incidents, and past disarmament efforts. This conversation isn’t just a wake-up call—it’s a rallying cry to face and address the ultimate existential threat of our age: nuclear war.

To bardzo realny scenariusz. W kierunku Stanów Zjednoczonych zostaje wystrzelony pocisk z głowicą nuklearną. Od pierwszej sekundy zaczyna się szereg obserwacji, decyzji i podejmowanych akcji, który może zakończyć się tylko w jeden sposób – koniec świata jaki znamy. Choć być może brzmi to jak scenariusz niejednego filmu, jaki przyszło nam już oglądać, to tym razem może wydarzyć się to naprawdę. 72 minuty po oderwaniu się pocisku z powierzchni Ziemi, ginie ponad 5 miliardów ludzi. Jak dokładnie wygląda początek wojny nuklearnej? Kto może nam zagrażać – Rosja, czy może jeszcze inne państwa? Zapraszam do wysłuchania rozmowy z Annie Jacobsen, autorką książki „Wolna nuklearna. Możliwy scenariusz“ , wydanej w Polsce przez wydawnictwo Insignis . Książka opisuje minuta po minucie, jak może przebiec początek wojny, która zakończy życia większości ludzkiej populacji. Nic, co znajduje się w książce, nie jest wymysłem autorki. To wszystko naprawdę może się wydarzyć. Annie była w Polsce zaledwie przez kilka dni i niezwykle się cieszę, że udało mi się z nią porozmawiać, jednocześnie będąc jednym z zaledwie kilku podcasterów, z którymi się spotkała. Tym samym dołączyłem do tak szanownego podcasterskiego grona jak Joe Rogan, czy DOAC. Rozmowa prowadzona jest w języku angielskim.

Glenn Beck. What Nuclear War Under Joe Biden Would Look Like. Annie Jacobsen Watch this interview at- https://youtu.be/7vkIboAhzYQ?si=mF4hfUfcHi1fnuGs Glenn Beck 1.33M subscribers 75,539 views Premiered Aug 17, 2024 The Glenn Beck Podcast “Nuclear war can never be won and must never be fought,” declared Reagan and Gorbachev at their summit in Geneva in 1985. Yet nuclear war, says journalist Annie Jacobsen, is an “existential threat that still looms over us all.” From the nuclear “football” to the “black book of death,” Annie sheds light on what former CIA director and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta says the American people “need to know.” When nations like Russia and China have a stockpile of nuclear weapons, Annie advises that it’s time to remember how to differentiate between enemies and adversaries in order to avoid nuclear winter and a potential return to the lifestyle of the hunter-gatherer. Glenn and Annie also discuss the covert Operation Paperclip that brought Nazi scientists to America, including “Hitler's favorite chemist,” and the CIA’s top-secret paramilitary operations. “No one knows who to trust,” says Glenn, and the scariest part is that we are all forced to put our trust in the one man who can launch American nuclear weapons any time he wants – President Joe Biden.

"Ring one: total annihilation; no cellular life remains. Ring two, another three-mile diameter out: everything is ablaze. Ring three, another three or five miles out on every side: third-degree burns among almost everyone. You are talking about people who may have gone down into the secret tunnels beneath Washington, DC, escaped from the Capitol and such: people are now broiling to death; people are dying from carbon monoxide poisoning; people who followed instructions and went into their basement are dying of suffocation. Everywhere there is death, everywhere there is fire. "That iconic mushroom stem and cap that represents a nuclear blast — when a nuclear weapon has been exploded on a city — that stem and cap is made up of people. What is left over of people and of human civilisation." —Annie Jacobsen In today’s episode, host Luisa Rodriguez speaks to Pulitzer Prize finalist and New York Times bestselling author Annie Jacobsen about her latest book, Nuclear War: A Scenario . Links to learn more, highlights, and full transcript. They cover: The most harrowing findings from Annie’s hundreds of hours of interviews with nuclear experts. What happens during the window that the US president would have to decide about nuclear retaliation after hearing news of a possible nuclear attack. The horrific humanitarian impacts on millions of innocent civilians from nuclear strikes. The overlooked dangers of a nuclear-triggered electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack crippling critical infrastructure within seconds. How we’re on the razor’s edge between the logic of nuclear deterrence and catastrophe, and urgently need reforms to move away from hair-trigger alert nuclear postures. And plenty more.
