Customer Reviews
Not Spacy but love the Podcsdt
I listen to the first half of this podcast every weeknight. I am not in the space industry and know little about it but I find the news updates fascinating. I feel like I’m learning and I had no idea of the rich news about space there is. Sometimes I listen to second half of the show but not always. A lot of that is a little “in the weeds” for me.
Great Space podcast!
If you are a space enthusiast or want some high level content about the space industry, you should listen to this podcast.
Been waiting for a show like this!
This podcast is a must-listen for me. I’m learning so much - Maria is a ✨stellar✨ host!
