Monday Night Talk 8-3-2015 featuring Russian Historian Dr Sergei Khrushchev

Dr. Sergei Khrushchev is a special guest on this segment of Monday Night Talk! Dr. Khrushchev provides insight to an event he was scheduled to headline in Nantucket in which he offers rare insights into the intense and historic relationship between his father Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and John F. Kennedy during his years as President.  Dr. Khrushchev will share details of the Cuban Missile Crisis when the world found itself on the brink of nuclear war. Khrushchev, a Senior Fellow at the Watson Institute of International Studies at Brown University, will also discuss the history of the Soviet missile and space programs, in which he played an active role during the Cold War. He also shares his view on modern Russia as it has transitioned back most recently from a decentralized society into an emerging super power and what that means for security concerns around the globe. Do you have an topic for a future show or info on an upcoming community event? Email us at mondaynighttalk@gmail.com or "like" and post a comment on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/mondaynighttalkon959fmwatd. If you're a fan of the show and enjoy our segments, you can either download your favorite segment from this site or subscribe to our podcasts through iTunes today!  © Monday Night Talk with Kevin Tocci - 2015.
