Great series - excellent hosts

Guys - I’m such a fan of Expanse and this podcast: Just had to come on and say that these Aliens episodes are outstanding. SO fun! Great work!

Great Series and Both Hosts Are Hilarious

The Expanse is my favorite Sci-Fi series of all time, though the upcoming Ahsoka series might be a close number 2 if they tell the story I think they will tell... and Wes was recently announced to be starring in that, so... awesome. Great to hear the background and themes of Expanse episodes. I've listened to the entire series on Audiobook including Memory's Legion, where it was great to hear Ty give a little blurb at the end of each Novella to add further depth. I also like the movie and TV show reviews. I'm glad both hosts have a great sense of humor! Also, just wanted to mention that Temple of Doom was not supposed to be a sequel to Raiders - it was a prequel. Great review, though! But, I want to know what the influence of "The Mote in God's Eye" was. Both of you mention Mormons and both cite the Nauvoo. Did you read the motie trilogy and was that something that influenced you?

Glad these guys got into podcasting

First started listening to the expanse recaps since it is one of my fav shows of all time. As it has gone on I’ve enjoyed their discussions of other movies and shows more and more. Great guests are always coming around too.
