Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 105 ratings
  • A lot of poor quality recordings

    A number of other podcasts have much better quality and variety.

    Also, annoying how the host is always schilling a TV box that is a well known scam.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Moonmen
Q: Did you ever go on a space walk? That must be the scariest thing ever.
You're tethered and focused on the task. At the moment the hatch shuts behind you, you're no longer part of the crew, just part of the ship, staring into infinite space.
Moonmen
Q: What do you think of space?
It's the one thing they can't fit into one equation, the fundamental rule that holds the universe together and keeps it apart.
