There's a new proposal for a nuclear site along the Ohio River. It's called "Prosperity One," and the company behind it says it will bring industrial investment and jobs while generating approximately 6.6 gigawatts of electricity. It's also a response to the Trump administration's call to accelerate American energy production.

Guests:
