Nuclear is back, baby! But there’s a catch: the world is hungry for uranium, and we're running short. Turns out, countries like China, India, and Saudi Arabia aren’t waiting around—they’re ramping up reactors faster than you can say "energy crisis." Small Modular Reactors (think mini but mighty) could totally flip the script on how we power cities, AI data centers, and your neighborhood coffee shop. Our guest knows the ins and outs of uranium investments, the weird logistics of mining, and why nuclear might just be the unsung hero of clean energy, controversial, sure, but impossible to ignore.
