Manage episode 283083479 series 2862320
"She was in orbit for 22 days... plenty of time to leave a ghost."
On this episode, we take a look at the soviet space program. Our host, a cosmonaut named Yuri (no, not that one), contemplates his 108 day mission in orbit as he prepares to come home. Yuri must keep a level head though as strange sounds coming from outside the capsule threaten the entire mission. Also featuring, a wonderful short piece by Maggie Lee about dogs, tennis balls, and the cosmic existential joke of life's purpose. Fun! With musical guests Cosmozoa and kohm!
