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.
