Orbital Earthcast

This is a public service announcement to any sentient beings throughout the Universe thinking about visiting Earth in the foreseeable future. Earth is closed. Gap has the details.

Earth year 2019 might have been full of large stories, but there are others that fell far off the radar. Perhaps that was for the best as you will discover in this year's Time Warp episode. Boosh, Grevlock and CB rejoin Gap to discuss why art is confusing, if aliens are obviously real and the current status of the bird revolution.

Gap might have wandered onto the set of a classic Christmas special. Gap might also regret such a thing. Let's all watch this train wreck together, shall we?

Thanksgiving is finally here and along with it comes a feast to rival all others. Will you go strictly traditional with a lobster or more new-age with a turkey? How about kicking it up a notch? Gap talks to Fry Ferrari from Stuffed! about going on a road trip to Flavor City.

Orbital returns just in time for the spookiest of seasons. But let us be proactive and fight against the spooky things armed with knowledge. Gap is joined by Lance Van Helsing from the hit paranormal investigation show Ghast Stoppers. We go in-depth into the various kinds of spectral creatures you are likely to encounter and ask if you ever really encounter them at all.

As the first episode of the new Earth year, Gap assembles the Orbital Time Warp panel to discuss the strange and sometimes unfathomable stories that happened in 2018. Be prepared to hear tales of relationship sadness, candy catastrophes, scientific studies no one asked for and animals just trying to cope. You're welcome, Earth!

It's that time of year when the world falls in love with Christmas specials, so here we are with another one. Gap tries to discover how wonderful life is when George Bailey comes on the show. So many questions to answer: Is it a wonderful life? Who names these kids? What happened to the money? What's with the raven? How about the squirrel? Did the squirrel and raven conspire to steal the money? Enjoy an exploration of such questions as we celebrate the most wonderful time of the year on Orbital.

Once the turkey is all gone, the time for gift shopping begins. Every year it seems harder to shop for the ones you love and tolerate. Luckily, Gap has you covered on this episode of Orbital. Flying into the studio is the one and only Bee in a Tree, a lively icon of the gift-giving season that knows exactly what you want, we think.

Also, Elf on the Shelf could not be reached for comment.

Gather round the dinner table and try your hardest not to pull a carving knife on your relatives, it's Thanksgiving. And as America prepares to celebrate this autumn tradition, likely from under several feet of snow, Gap decided to host the first Thanksgiving BEFORE the actual first Thanksgiving, thus making it the NEW first Thanksgiving.  Lace up your bootstraps, it's going to be one of those episodes. To help celebrate this new first Thanksgiving, Gap welcomes Osamequin and John Carver to the dinner table, two towering figures from this era of American history. This may not go according to plan.

Since turkey is on everyone's mind this time of year, we have a whole show dedicated to the subject. To speak on the subject, Gap invited Tom, the turkey rights activist, to discuss it in detail. Some fascinating revelations and a surprise last minute guest stuff the first ever Talking Turkey segment on Orbital.
