I’ve been listening for years, and it’s always a treat. Interesting news and interviews — I’ve learned so much. I also love the humor and occasional comparison of American and British culture.
I love this podcast. Discovered it in 2019 with all the Apollo 11 anniversary material and have been hooked ever since. It goes into depth and detail with interviews on subjects the mainstream broadcasters would never bother doing. Always interesting. Secondly, the production values are sky high with the presenters’ previous broadcast experience evident in spades. A must-listen, and great fun going through the back catalogue!
Love this podcast. Informative and done with an easy style. Always interesting subjects. The full Gene Cernan was a highlight for me
One for the uber space nerds
Thanks Richard and Sue for your fun and informative podcasts. New information mixed with archive interests. You are making space real in this time of the new space race. Gratefully, Belinda x
