Quick News Daily switches things up again, this time with a recommendation for something to stream: Chernobyl. While this episode first aired last year, the commentary is sadly still extremely relevant. Regardless, this is an incredible miniseries, so whether you've seen it already or need a reason to start it, tune into this discussion.
You can find Chernobyl streaming on HBO Max.
Listen to Part 2 of our Chernobyl review here, and Part 3 here.
