- Best in space!
Off-Nominal is quickly becoming my favorite space-related podcast. Jake and Anthony strike the perfect balance between solid space content and great comedy. It’s always a fun listen—and there’s booze involved, so really, what could go wrong?

Interesting but the very forced laughter is super annoying. Signing OUT

I enjoy the content of this show very much, but I find myself not listening much anymore. Jake’s sound quality is so bad it’s difficult to listen to. Each and every guest has better sound quality than one of the hosts, I get lost in the roominess of Jake’s mic, and it’s often hard to understand what he is saying, or I just don’t care. It would really benefit the show to sort this problem out.
Apple Podcasts3JTK68intimeUnited States3 years ago Funny and informative. I do wish they would drink even more however. Usually they only have one drink, which isn't enough for maximum entertainment.
