Summary
Can one man really science his way off a planet that is actively trying to kill him? We are diving deep into the red dust of The Martian by Andy Weir and its high-octane 2015 adaptation directed by Ridley Scott. We answer the burning question: is this hard sci-fi or just a very expensive math exam with potato jokes?
Hear Joe lose his mind over the missing Chinese subtitles in his copy! Hear Jen reveal her surprisingly accurate fan-casting choices that nearly beat the real thing! Hear Tom explain why Matt Damon’s disco-infused survival guide is basically competence porn for space nerds!
We explore the science of orbital mechanics, the inaccuracy of Martian windstorms, and why Mark Watney is the ultimate space pirate. Whether you are a fan of binary code or just here for the 70's needle drops, this episode has the right stuff. All That, plus Joe’s fever dream about a not-so-secret ending you won’t believe!
