Please Remain Calm
Peter Sagal and Craig Mazin discuss the second episode of Chernobyl. With untold millions at risk after the explosion, nuclear physicist Ulana Khomyuk (Emily Watson) makes a desperate attempt to reach Valery Legasov (Jared Harris) and warn him about the threat of a second explosion that could devastate the continent. Mazin sheds light on the real-life scientists who inspired the composite character Khomyuk and demystifies how nuclear radiation works. He also gives context about seemingly small details, like the poem being read on the radio, and we get more surprising answers from Sagal's "really?" questions.

Kundenrezensionen
Thank you
not only was the mini series overwhelming to watch, this podcast was also unique and great to listen to. It was a privilege to listen to both of you and to be surprised with which attention to details the mini series was created. Thanks to Peter Sagal, Craig Mazin and the whole team for this remarkable podcast!
Worth listening to
The podcast gives interesting insights into the writing and production choices. It is informative, very pleasant to listen to, great conversational style and never overbearing. However, it‘s maybe a little too harmless, too friendly, I found myself wishing for some more critical follow-up questions. I found the focus on lies not very convincing, for example, as it rather obscures the micro-politics around the disaster. But if you liked the show, listen to this podcast, it‘s worth your time.
Informative and entertaining
This is a really great addition to watching the miniseries. Reminds me of the LOST-podcast in the „old days“ where podcasts weren‘t even a thing.
Very interesting with all the additional infos about the history of what really happened, what is real in the series and what the producers didn‘t even have enough time to show.
