Summary: Dammit Neil! It happened again. But despite some lost bits, the boys manage to record most of a show. About space! Follow Up (Real): Matt's been running! 11/100 done already! Jody thinks Matt's new shoes are just ugly enough to keep pace Jody's Spouse-person gave her own grades for Jody after episode-59 "..most categories are better than he thinks, and one is worse." Follow Up (Fake): Tryers, please post an ALYT review in iTunes, we’ve had the same 2 reviews forever and one of them still looks like sock-puppetry or astro-turfing (not sure which applies) by Matt Topic: Space! Jody and Matt were planning to share personal favorites from the annals of spaceflight, and why they’re significant...but you know, time constraints Why do humans do space travel? What is its true value to humanity (both practical and more ephemeral)? One of Jody’s earliest childhood memories is barging into an adult Trivial Pursuit game with a correct answer to, “What was first animal launched into space?” It was clearly a monkey, but the adults were unsure, possibly confused by the Cosmonaut Hero Dog Laika That’s right, the dog is famous enough to be on postage! Jody went to Space Camp / Rocket Camp at MOSI, memories are all-a-jumble Space!...Media! That movie "Space Camp" Is that the guy from Revenge of the Nerds? There was an HBO series Jody watched while in college...it’s probably From the Earth to the Moon It was the right time for Jody to be exposed to that sort of engineering culture The Commander Thinks Aloud by The Long Winters Song Exploder episode Bowie's in Space
