Simon loves any day that he gets to talk to a real life astronaut and today is no different. Clay Anderson, aka AstroClay, talks about the upcoming Artemus 2 launch and rekindling our interest in the moon. Hopefully, like the Apollo missions, this will spark a new generation of astronaut hopefuls and lovers of space.

Later, Simon talks to Chonnie Richey, a Food Insecurity Expert, about what to do and how a family can prepare if the government shutdown continues. Almost 40M people rely on SNAP benefits that will be affected if the shutdown continues past November 1.
