About this listen

There's a man alone in space.
No memory.
No plan.
Just a problem that might end everything.

So naturally… we talk about it.

In our first episode, Jack and George dive into Project Hail Mary and what makes a story like this actually work. Is it the science? The stakes? Or just the fact that watching one guy try not to completely screw everything up feels… a little too relatable?

We get into:

  • why space stories hit differently
  • what makes a character worth rooting for
  • and whether either of us would last more than 10 minutes in this situation

(Spoiler: we would not.)

This is the start of something.
We're figuring it out as we go.
But that's kind of the point.
