This Week in Space (Audio)

I overall like this podcast, Tariq is endlessly enthusiastic and genuinely enjoyable to listen to. Rod, while obviously very knowledgeable (and great radio voice), is somewhat darker and seems to find his fun in bullying Tariq and, indeed, many of the guests. Maybe it’s just his personality, but his constant jabs and put downs get tiring after a while. I’m going to keep trying to listen to the podcast for a while longer because the content is topical and interesting, but it can be a slog when the fun people are being talked over so much. I’ve been listening weekly for the past 2 months.

Like it even better after reading the MAGA snowflake reviews who can’t handle hearing anything that doesn’t support their MAGA doctrine.

Seriously, gross

This Week in Space is usually very good, but this episode went down a political rabbit hole. Some episodes touch on national politics, but they stick to relevant topics (e.g., NASA budget, administration priorities). This episode fell off the wagon with a political wanna-be spouting about the 1st Amendment, Texas politics and other topics unrelated to space. I couldn't finish the episode. I'm not going to unsubscribe - yet. Hopefully this is a single aberration. If it happens again, count me out. I tune in for space news and bad jokes, not political rants.

Absolutely horrible show last Friday . An entire show dedicated to Trump Bashing. Greatly enjoyed your show however am now unfollowing.
