    The 42 minute final video of the series (How a Nuclear Submarine Punches Through Arctic Ice) was just released, but rather than post just that one video I figured it was worth posting the whole playlist instead, for those who may not have been following along as it was being released.

    IMO the whole series was an incredibly interesting look inside the secretive world of US Navy submarines and daily life of submariners, and it was surprising how open the Navy seemed to be about most everything. According to Destin (he talks about it at the end of the final video), the Navy provided no directives on how they wanted him to present the footage/experience, and even when the crew weren't able to answer his questions, or the Navy had to censor certain footage, they still allowed Destin to be pretty transparent about those aspects of it all. So if you're even a tiny bit curious about US Navy submarines or life aboard one, I highly recommend checking this series out.

    p.s. Throwing this in ~misc since the series covers so many subjects it doesn't really fit neatly into any one group.
