  • Just not the same

    I really want to like the new podcast as I like the guys individually. It’s just missing the core ingredient which is Nate. Dusty can be irritating and insufferable. Replace him with Stroup and I’ll be back in a heartbeat.

    Here’s my CTA! Love the show, thanks for keeping it clean and hilarious. I originally got on y’all’s show because I had watched a Nate special and thought he sounded alright . It just so happened to be y’all’s first show on y’all’s own. It was a serendipitous moment for me and I’ve loved every episode since! Glad to see Nate’s not weighing y’all down anymore;)

    I have to agree with Noah God said and that’s how it is, this is how I live my life and I have uncountable joy. Also my last name is pronounced Draw-ski.

    I recently listened to the original Universe episodes from the Nateland podcast days and I must say I’m so glad you brought this subject back with Dusty on the pod. His perspective on all things space made this episode one of the best ones yet.

    Very interesting guys. I kept waiting for a lively discussion about which 1998 asteroid movie was better, “Armageddon” or “Deep Impact!” Always look forward to when a new episode drops
