    PRIVATE SPACE TRAVEL

We discuss billionaire’s dick measuring hobby of space flights, environmental impacts of space tourism, how private space travel won’t save us and will just try to push space imperialism/capitalism and elite exodus, and a few other random topics.

EmmaM6636 ,

Clever, critical, but not cliche.

This is an awesome podcast for anyone looking to engage in critical social commentary that is thought-provoking (but not jargony), passionate (but not preach-y), humorous (but not hubristic), and relatable (but adamantly leftist). Great variety of topics and perspectives!

jonathon o. ,

Witty, informative, sometimes dark humor

Great podcast, the hosts are relatable and do a good job of presenting both the issues and the humor in social problems. They do come from a left leaning perspective, but that’s what I’m looking for.

I’m really looking forward to seeing where they go with it. I like to bounce between this and chapo trap house.
